Xplane11 not loading

Question

Hi

Hi Prakash

I'm not with Laminar Research, just a fellow simmer in the UK, but when I look at your X-Plane 11 Log.txt file, the last entry before it stopped logging was:-

0:00:44.808 D/STM: Transitioning from state state_QuickFlightWizard to state_NormalLoading
0:00:44.808 I/ACF: Loading airplane number 0 with Aircraft/Laminar Research/Boeing B737-800/b738.acf
Fetching plugins for C:\Users/Prakash/Desktop/X-Plane 11/Aircraft/Laminar Research/Boeing B737-800/plugins

Loaded: C:\Users/Prakash/Desktop/X-Plane 11/Aircraft/Laminar Research/Boeing B737-800/plugins/xlua/64/win.xpl (com.x-plane.xlua.1.0.0r1).

There may therefore be an issue with the 'xlua' plugin, so it may be a good idea initially to download the latest xlua version from Github at the following URL and try reinstalling it into your 'plugins' folder:- https://github.com/X-Plane/XLua

Hi Prakash

I've looked at the latest Log.txt file and exactly the same thing appears logged in it, only with a different aircraft (Stinson L5)

0:02:03.407 I/ACF: Loading airplane number 0 with Aircraft/Laminar Research/Stinson L5/L5_Sentinel.acf
Fetching plugins for C:\Users/Prakash/Desktop/X-Plane 11/Aircraft/Laminar Research/Stinson L5/plugins

Loaded: C:\Users/Prakash/Desktop/X-Plane 11/Aircraft/Laminar Research/Stinson L5/plugins/xlua/64/win.xpl (com.x-plane.xlua.1.0.0r1).

I would therefore repeat my previous advice to download and install the xlua plugin and see if this resolves the matter?

Hi Greengolfer15 

Thanks for info/reply.

Upgraded the display drivers to the latest solved this loading issue.

But now iam seeing a pop up of "Render options set too high" and f-acct/sec is showing around 9 -10 . i believe this should be between 25 to 35 fps. 

Has per the manual video have set the rendering option for the graphics to minimum and still seeing the same numbers.

Any ideas ?

Thanks

Prakash

Display driver update eh, well I wouldn't have thought of that in this case, well done :-)

Yes, the frame rate that I'm currently getting is on average around 30fps, it goes up and down depending on scenery etc. but it's always there or thereabouts.

In your case, 9-10fps is very low, so we need to look for possible reasons for this?

1. Could you please therefore upload a screenshot of your graphics settings page in X-Plane 11(mine is below for reference)

2. I noticed from your original post that your HP Z220 CMT workstation has an Intel HD Graphics 4000 processor, which I believe has only 2GB of video RAM. According to LR, this is doable, but is at the low end of their minimum hardware recommendations.

Ummmmm…...with all graphics settings to minimum, there's obviously not much more you can do with that!

Log.txt file this time shows numerous entries about 'uncalibrated axis' being detected for the X52 HOTAS, did you calibrate this within the X-Plane 11 joystick settings page, rather than from within the operating system itself?

Not much more I can offer I'm afraid :-(

Hi Greengolfer15 

No problem ...thanks for your help/info.

In regards to X52 HOTAS calibration yes there are few settings un-configured .....will this affect the FPS?

Hi

I wouldn't have thought it would affect frame rate in any way :-)
