Please don't open a new thread when another one discussing the same issue has already opened.

The issue seems random and not related to the airport having jetways (assuming you disabled them all, as suggested by the installer now), try removing the Airport Services as well, this will remove any change made by GSX to the airports.

FOUND SOLUTION  !! :D

1. in the installer run desactivate all GSX jetways as indicated
2. click exclude "all 3rd party etc..."  and APPLY
3. in simbrief generate the flight you want to do with correct aircraft.
4. launch the sim , go to the free flight and enter Departing and arriving airport as mentioned in your simbrief flight plan
FLY ... and it works fine... got the GSX working with default jetway and passengers boarding.
You can also choose to start your flight from a Parking/ Stand not equipped with jetways and it works too...

Anyway a fix is needed ..

If this works, the real reason seems to be MSFS 2024 has issues starting on an airport without a flight plan. GSX does read the standard variables to see if the departure and destination airports are the same as the ones on Simbrief, but only if you have a Simbrief flight plan active.

So, maybe, the real issue might be MSFS 2024 is freezing if the variables for the departure/destination airport are read without a flight plan (in MSFS 2020 they were a null string, which is normal), I think if this is the case, there might be workarounds on our side.

You can also test that, by removing your simbrief username from GSX, if that works without the need to create a flightplan in the sim, that's the issue, because without a username, GSX won't even try accessing those variables.

Sure, a real fix is needed and it should be done by Microsoft, if that's really the case. Of course, we can try workarounds around it, as usual when we found simulator bugs that can't be fixed as quickly as we can.

As Umberto mentioned, try toning down your settings for objects such as air traffic, cars, boats, etc and LOD settings.  Seemed to have worked for me but I hope this gets fixed as I would like to have the freedom to load in AI traffic when something like FSLTL becomes available in MSFS2024.

You are confusing two completely different issues in the same thread here.

- MSFS 2024 crashing or freezing on the Map with GSX installed. Can only be caused by not having disabled ALL replacement jetways.

- GSX menu stuck on loading. There's a whole chapter in the manual dedicated to all known causes at all known solutions at Page 97, no use repeating it here.

What page is it on or can you share the link? for - GSX menu stuck on loading. There's a whole chapter in the manual dedicated to all known causes at all known solutions at Page 97, no use repeating it here.

I spent the whole weekend starting and restarting MSFS 2024 with various different configurations, and even activating a flightplan doesn't seem to constantly fix the problem. However, it seems that removing this folder:

\Addon Manager\MSFS\fsdreamteam-gsx-world-of-jetways\LivingWorld_Config

Will make the freeze on the map view when starting a flight way less likely. This is strange, since that file is fairly simple list of vehicles assigned to populate the airport, so it's handled entirely by the sim without any ties to the GSX code, so we'll surely bring it to MS/Asobo attention, since specifying an alternate vehicle Living World file is fully supported in the SDK and there's even a a sample file, which our source 100% complies with.

Removing it will work as a temporary solution, so you won't have to renounce to GSX. The effect of removing it, is that ground vehicles wandering around the airport will be the default ones. There will be zero effect on GSX-proper operations on your own airplane.

In the next update, we'll do this from the installer, which will do that automatically, like in case of the replacement jetways, until a permanent solution (possibly after a sim update that migth make it more stable in general) will be found.

After deleting that folder as you mentioned, the map was successfully loaded the first two times. But strangely it still started getting stuck on the map screen again afterward. :-\

good news ---
it worked fine for me ; after removing this file in the main Addon Manager foldr in my C:/ drive
 i did start the installer; opened the MSFS2024 window in the installer to point to  my community is located in another SSD not in C:/) 
then clicked " check"

and now i got GSX services in almost all airports ( but not any  gate , sometime i got a message from GSX sayon " this place is not active no GSX services available etc..." but there is no more freeze on the map view. Thank you very mucvh to Virtuali developer it's scuh an important tool for adding realism in the sim  thk you --- hope for a fix from MSFS soon also to avoid all thses problems :)

I assume when you say  "disable all replacement jetways"  you are referring to the  3rd party button in the  CONFIG page in the installer  ????

This seems to have fixed it for me too. Thanks.

I deleted the file and it still doesn't work for me. I still have no working GSX in my MS2024. I am totally giving up.
