Will report again Thanks for your input!

CTD while setting up at KBOS

Good evening

Today Flight from LFMN to LICC

BSS 2.0 very beautiful.
X-Life release candidate 1 for ver 1.0 also OK. It's wonderful

But I encountered a problem :
I have checked the runways for departure and landing with the editor
I had selected runway 04R for takeoff and 04L for landing

But ATC told me to taxi and hold short runway 04L for take off ??

ATC is also not controlled by the editor ?

Thanks a lot for your help

Crash while watching AI taxiing. Also I've a problem with landing aircraft waiting for other aircraft just after turned off the runway (runwaybusy). I cannot find the aircraft which the other aircrafts is waiting for anywhere on the airport.
The crash happened two times in a row, and the waiting bug seems to not go away.

Adding dump and log file, aswell as the ESGG.dat (apt.dat) and ESGG.txt (note the ESGG.dat is still in development, as I need to 'uname' some taxiways).

The airport scenery I'm using is the X-Plane default for ESGG by bbus: https://gateway.x-plane.com/scenery/page/ESGG

(does not need to be downloaded if you are using the most recent version of X-Plane).

Test flight ESSA - EPVA
X-Plane 10.45
X-Life rc1.0
iMac27

No crash, flight plan created and distributed. FollowMe car functionality OK.

ESSA:  busy aviation at the airport around and lively taxi traffic. Correct designed taxi ways and runway.

EPVA:  sparse aviation over airport and on taxi ways.
           Taxi ways to runways and between them are not position correctly. Same concerning the 2 runways.
           Aircrafts are landing at the edge of the runway instead in the middle, then clearing to taxi ways traffic on
           gras beside the taxi ways need to be correct.

Both airports sceneries are very well designed.

I spent already nearly 100$ for the prepared payware airports. They are worth their price and I hope to see their number growing. But there are also a lote of high qualitative sceneries of big airports designed for free. They should also be prepared for ATC and traffic. Personally I am very sorry that I have no idea on how to design airports and taxi ways.....

EPWA? There is 2 different sceneries - payware and freeware. ATC-taxiroutes prepared for freeware airport. They are not exact copy of each other. So, you may (and should) see wrong placed traffic.

Hi JAR

I think we should discuss in some cases what version to prefer, the payware ore the free one.
On one side for many user 20$ for one airport design is a lot of money. On the other side, if we as customer
wil prefer only the free version, there will be no professional High quality sceneries any more.

In case of EPWA I personally think it is obvious that the pay ware version should be the preferred one
to prepare for using X-Life. The free version is built in 2010 and not updated since then. It don't present the
quality we are used to get today even from free ware. In this case I decided to purchase the newer qualitativ
much higher version.

I am sorry having a mistake !

EPWA that I used  is a freeware made bei the talent tdg sceneries designer.

As I wrote in the previous post, I had constant crashes. I think I have localized the bug as I noticed X-Life crashes everytime when an aircraft stops or approaching the holding point before takeoff. The taxiroutes Ihave built for ESGG have several route-lines (which is set as runway taxi routes, red color) from holding point to runway main taxi route, and I think that is the main problem.

I think I understand now that X-Life sets the holding point automatically for the first non-runway taxi route connecting to a taxi runway route, or more easily explained, it prefers just an one long red runway taxiline. So I did remove all the red taxi routes connecting with the runway taxi route, and replaced them with just one normal taxiroute from the preferred holdingpoint. Now everything works perfectly with no crashes.

The downside with this is you cannot create nice curved taxiroutes on to the runway if your holding point is far from the runway, according to some charts.

I hope you understand.

Yup, got it. Spoke to Eugeny recently and that's what he said too. Also had some weird lines in the KBOS.txt file which may be due to ramp names being too long. Fixed that too and now, so far, no CTD

Hello,
i have had a problem yesterday. There was a plane at hold point and ATC ask me go on runway. I must go thrue the plane because it had never move.
