GSX Couatl scripting engine hasn't started **SOLVED**

[virtuali]

Recommendations on how to proceed?

- Disable the firewall

- Configure the antivirus to exclude the whole Addon Manager folder

- Download and install the current FSDT Universal Installer

- Use the Universal Installer to UPDATE all your products

- If that doesn't work, restart Windows after installing the FSDT Universal Installer and try again.

Thanks for the response Umberto, I was able to get it to work following your instructions:

Restarting OS was not required.  I now have a fully functional suite of FSDT product and a beautiful KLAX in P3D:

Hello
I just did exactly the same manipulations as you and it doesn’t work.
my VIRTUALI "couatl.ini" file remains empty, but the "couatl.log" file is filled with info.
I’ve been getting angry with these programs for months. I am on FSX and you cannot use the "installer" to install the programs. It only takes into account updates.

[LaurentVAN]

here is the file couatl.log
disregard (2) it is only to send you the file

I am on FSX and you cannot use the "installer" to install the programs. It only takes into account updates.

It's entirely normal you can't use the FSDT Installer to install into FSX. The only reason why you can to install into MSFS, it's because our MSFS airports don't have a Trial version, so their installers are not always freely available to download, and the FSDT Installer represent an "universal" installer for all of them.

FSX products don't need this, because their installers ARE freely available, so the FSDT installer only deals with their updates.

[LaurentVAN]

That I understood it. But what I don’t understand is why it doesn’t work when I do exactly the same manipulation as described by Robins with his photos

Problem fixed in today's update.

I installed the latest version of GSX and updated as expected, all antivirus applications are deactivated. Couatl closes during loading flight.

It's sad when you paid for a product that doesn't work and didn't get support

I checked your log now, and from the look of it, it *seems* the program crashed while generating the airport cache.

This is usually due to the following reasons:

- The antivirus not correctly configured to have the entire Addon Manager folder added to the antivirus Exclusions

- Some error in one of  your .BGL files, like a corrupted file.

Hello dear FSDreamTeam,
I have always been satisfied with GSX ... it has always worked well until now.
But since the last updates - GSX crashes constantly and or brings my sim together with the FSLabs Airbus to freez or crash.
at least that's my guess.
Just now it happened twice in a row, even after I restarted the simulator (P3Dv5) several times.

What can be the problem?
flying like this is no fun anymore, it's really just frustrating.
Maybe I am stupid and have done something wrong.
In any case, I'm about to go crazy.

Please help me.
100000000000 Thanks and greetings from Berlin,
Patrick

ps.: after there is GSX for the MSFS it is also so that during the pushback (in P3Dv5) together with the FSLabs Airbus the aircraft is lifted and then is set down unpleasantly ... what is the problem?

I also have the same issue with P3Dv4.5HF3 and FSLabs. P3Dv4.5HF3 with FSLabs A320 freezes when GSX crashed. I had encountered that four times in a row.

But since the last updates - GSX crashes constantly and or brings my sim together with the FSLabs Airbus to freez or crash.

It cannot possibly happen "since the last update", since the issue of exhausting all sound sources has been reported in a long while and, it seems to happen ONLY with the FS Labs so, it seems something in their code is constantly resetting the passenger number in a loop.

Please confirm it doesn't happen with another airplane.
