X-Plane (Linux) crashes when XSwiftBus loads with Vulkan shaders enabled #137

Closed jonaseberle closed 2 years ago

jonaseberle commented 2 years ago

I tested with these XSwiftBus versions:

Alpha version 0.9.8.38 Beta version 0.9.7.166 Beta version 0.9.6.98 Beta version 0.9.4.389

Loading X-Plane with Vulkan shaders without the plugin Resources/plugins/xswiftbus works.

I've set in Resources/plugins/xswiftbus/xswiftbus.conf:

# Render phase debugging - to help diagnose crashes
debug = on

# TCAS traffic - to disable in case of crashes
tcas = off

X-Plane Log.txt (I can't see anything interesting unfortunately) https://gist.github.com/jonaseberle/bd1a472b05460ad7da8276f2b2c3c9e0

This is the last thing seen before X-Plane crashes: image

Make sure you have the latest graphics drivers available for your distro.

It's my understanding that Intel graphics are poorly supported by X-Plane on Linux. See https://www.x-plane.com/kb/updating-graphics-drivers-for-vulkan-metal/

From that page: Intel systems aren’t currently supported because their driver lacks required functionality oh, interesting. Well, nevermind, I'll switch to another PC anyways. Selecting Vulkan hasn't given me more FPS anyways.
