[FIXED] Regarding the frequent FS9/X client crashes
Posted: Sat Oct 08, 2011 6:30 pm
While many of the problems that are reported here are generally related to account management issues, or minor technical issues with FSX (pause on task switch, the sim not being fully up and running, etc), it's pretty clear that something IS happening regarding the stability of the client.
I will make it a high priority to find out what is going on. We are hearing numerous reports of FSX client crashes. We will do our best to replicate and isloate this case and will post updates in this thread as things progress.
It goes without saying that if there is a fundamental issue with the pilot client, we MUST find it and fix it. Some small changes were made late in the development process to allow the PilotEdge client to peacefully co-exist with the stock Squawkbox 4 client from which the PE client was derived. Had these changes not been made, users with both pilot clients would see two com/transponder pop-up panels as well as a host of other issues, to lengthy to list here.
What we're hearing now are reports of PE pilot client crashes (not FSX crashes). I don't recall ever hearing of this during the testing that took place prior to Oct 1.
With the launch efforts now complete, I will focus on finding the cause of the pilot client issues and addressing them asap.
Again, I'll post my findings here as the process gets underway.
