No Joy, very disappointed. Yesterday, all was well. I suggest to let the user decide whether he wants a potentially non-functional upgrade or not. XP11 was clean, XP12 sucks wrt stability and reliability.

Continuos crash to me .... This evening i lounched XP12 and steam forced me to install a small update (it tooked about 1 min). After that, using zibo, XP12 continued to freeze at startup at the point called "preparing world (about 80%)",
on the log file: Vulkan Failed etc etc etc... then i updated NVidia Drivers, the same.
Then i tried to start in the same aiport with the Cessna 175 with DAYLIGHT (not night).
It worked --> then i changed to zibo (without closing the simulator, but directly from the cessna 175).... and ....... it worked with the ZIbo!

I decided to close and reopen everithyng, but it seems to not work if you start with a third party airplane, so you have to start your simulation with the default 175 and then change to another airplane. Note that if you try to "change time", and pass from day to night, it won't work and freeze again.

Yesterday i played for about 3,5 hours, with zibo during fall/night and all was fine.
It must be a problem of the recent build, which installed tonight!

XP 12 requires you to have at minimum driver version 526.98 installed. OP had an older driver. Updating to at least 526.98 will solve this error being thrown. Whatever else problems y'all have make your own thread.
