I'm running the latest X-Plane 11 demo version (pb9) on my MacBook Pro 13' (late 2016).
When I try to change monitor resolution in the game's graphics settings, at first it freezes for several seconds and the screen does be changed to the expected resolution, e.g. 1280*800, but then the game crashes.
Meanwhile anti-aliasing settings is broken for me too, I have to disable anti-aliasing or the screen will be just pure black.
