Try disabling the steam overlay.

It was 2016 for this one….

Im not even saying go that far into the future.

You guys should be seriously proud of what you have achieved with 11.50, the tools you have put in place to address not just problems like device loss errors that keep you up at night, but “simple” killer features like the plugins performance tab that helps users and 3PD understand more solvable problems.

Im solid 60fps in VR now – in linux.

You’ve nailed the hard stuff already, please shout about it a little more, and drop in some eye candy teasers for those that way inclined, its basically 2 years now since the last dev Q&A all these new eyes can see and you are soooo much further than this now.

Yes, I had this issue too, on a 2017 iMac (3GHz i5, Radeon Pro 555 2GB). I have reverted to Catalina.

This unfortunately seems to suggest you are still quite far away from releasing any substantial update. I’m hoping to be wrong, I usually am.

I am using the Steam version of X-Plane (the latest at the moment is 11.50). When I started X-Plane yesterday, I got a joystick error message: “Error reading joystick configuration (.joy) file: Xbox 360 Wired Controller – Windows.joy – unknown button …” This error appears every time immediately after starting the simulator (once and only before the initial menu screen). It does not interfere with work, but it is annoying.

I do not and never have had XBox joysticks! I am using a Logitech joystick!

• MD5 checksum of the specified file matches the checksum of the file from another copy of X-Plane on another PC, where there is no error.
• Checking the integrity of files using Steam did not find any corrupted files.

P.S. Before the error appeared, I did not change any X-Plane settings – the last launch was the most common and there were no errors or warnings …

Jose, If YOU are tired, that’s your problem, don’t speak for me also!
I will wait as long as needed for making a very good sim even better.

I’m sure I’m not the only one who can be patient for further improvement of X-Plane, a defiant “but I want to…” certainly doesn’t move the project forward.

Ben, don’t be discouraged, you are doing a really good job.
