X Plane 11 crashes when switching to VR

#1 Post by heloguy »

I'm using X Plane 11 (11.5033), and KnobXP v1.2. Everything seems to work fine in windowed mode, but if if I try to switch to VR (with VR enabled in KnobXP settings), the sim crashes every time. If I disable VR mode for KnobXP, I'm able to enter VR mode. Attached is the Log.txt.

I didn't see an option to start a ticket for anything other than Air Manager, or Air Player, neither of which I have. I started one under Air Manager for desktop, and specified it's for KnobXP, and X Plane when switching to VR. Hopefully that works, or they can get me to the right person.

You're right. I still have to add it. But Air Manager is fine too.

Not yet. We're able to reproduce the problem and have a hunch of what could be the problem. Tomorrow we're gonna work on it.

It seems that the issue is resolved with the new version (1.2.2), which is now online.
Release notes:
- Fixed bug that could crash X-plane when switching between VR and non-VR
- Resizing the Knobster window in VR now scales properly
- Added additional modes for G1000
- Added dial acceleration to multiple modes

No it's just the G1000 commands for FMS, pan and zoom.
