GSX crashing when refueling requested

[united1987]

Anyone experiencing GSX crashing when calling for refueling? i attached my Couatl report to the topic. i ran the FSDT live update just to be sure and no luck.

This was posted in the GSX Pro forum for MSFS, but I assume the same steps would apply here.

Yeah I tried that didn’t work. I added the line per instruction and it still crashes .

It seems to have fixed it for me. Make sure if you are using Notepad to add the line you first open Notepad as administrator. Then in Notepad open the file \Windows\System32\drivers\etc\hosts

For me all the lines in that file are currently beginning with asterixis. Paste 127.0.0.1 api.eia.gov as the last line, i.e. below the existing text, and then File save.

Same issue here ... editing the hosts file fixed it ....

I’m trying to find out if maybe I’m not adding it correctly but if anyone has a screenshot on where to paste it would appreciate it
