ok thanks Martin, manually adding the entry to add-on.cfg within the Roaming folder still causes a crash.

Hope you fix it soon.

There is an occasional load crash caused by a IK Skeleton, like those found in jetways. The guys at Lockheed Martin debugged it for us a while back & the fix is included in Prepar3D 4.2.

I am running 4.2 but only updated the client, do I need to update the other two components?

In regards to my issues. It seems that the default KBOS is crashing too. Doing a P3Dv4.2 scenery reinstall (scenery hasnt been updated since I installed P3Dv4.

Are you getting a CTD or a vehicle crash? I’m getting a vehicle crash and reset to the default scenario when I pick KBOS. I got around it by disabling crash detection. I’m running orbx vector and NA landclass.

#metoo

P3D v4.2 and it crashes back to the default airport. Installed it twice, first time it added the scenery automatically, second time I added it manually and same result. I also tried different aircrafts, turned chaseplane off and same results.

Could you guys crashing out try temporarily removing KBOS_ADEP4_FLYTAMPA_BASE_XWIND.bgl & KBOS_ADEP4_FLYTAMPA_BASE.off from the scenery folder. Just move them onto your desktop.

Does it load now? The scenery will be a mess but It'll indicate if its the same problem I had a while back.

Hello - Removing these two did not help me. Crash still occurs. I am using 4.1

[attachment=0]F]T KBOS.PNG[/attachment I wonder if the crash on startup is related to an elevation issue, I turned off damage to aircraft and that seemed to work around the problem.
While flying around the airport I did notice some possible texture anomalies, I'll attach a snapshot
