Can't load PSX

[Darksidedriver]

Hello all,

I can't load PSX. Most distressing. Hangs at 12% on splash screen. I'm on version 10.129. Any help appreciated...

[Hardy Heinlin]

Hello,

what has changed on your computer?

New Mac OSX version?

New Windows version?

What text is indicated in the file Aerowinx/Logs/errors.txt?

Which file do you click, AerowinxStart.jar or Aerowinx.jar?

Let me get back to you tomorrow Hardy. I'm sure this is pilot error. Ive been installing/uninstalling  some other flight sims and plugging in/unplugging new yokes and joysticks. I also updated Java thinking that might help but no joy. One thing I did notice last time PSX started was that I had no sound, but after a system restart it was all normal. I'll get back to you tomorrow...

Thanks. Do you start with AerowinxStart.jar?

What's in the file Aerowinx/Preferences/Default.pref?

[Darksidedriver]

Thanks Hardy  And yes I open the program with AerowinxStart.jar.

Hardy, I may have solved the problem. I disconnected the last installed hardware (A Thrustmaster HOTAS assembly) and now PSX starts normally. Weird but it probably makes sense to you  . Thanks for your attention so far.

[Hardy Heinlin]

I think the "USB=..." text line contained data that didn't match the connected USB hardware. But such errors are caught and won't crash PSX. Anyway, I guess the start-up crash was related to a USB hardware problem. Glad to read it's solved now. Cheers.

Yes me too! I'm writing a spring sim session and use PSX to run the session in real time to set time markers etc.
