X-Plane CRJ-200 has been released $59.95

I saw a post over at x-pilot stating that a fix for the xpuipc incompatibility was on the horizon and that it was a bug in XPUIPC not the CRJ to do with threading.
Eagerly awaiting the next XPUIPC release.
--- Quote ---We had an intensive debugging session together with Torsten "Spyy", the developer of XPUIPC. We found that the underlying issue as a problem of XPUIPC, not of the CRJ.
In short, XPUIPC is doing something that is illegal in the first place, but as long as there is little load to X-Plane, it still works. So nobody ever noticed XPUIPC is doing something illegal. Now the CRJ exploits X-Plane's limits in various ways. It stays within what is legal, but to its maximum extend. And now the error in XPUIPC is revealed and leads to the crash.
Think of it like a street with cars parked at the streetside. There is a white line on the concrete separating the road from the parking cars. This white line is clearly specified by the X-Plane SDK. XPUIPC is parked slightly across this line. If you drive a Beetle through the street, nothing happens. If you drive a big truck through it, XPUIPC gets bumped and scratched badly although the truck doesn't touch the white line.
As soon as there are more projects in X-Plane behaving like big trucks, more errors like these are going to surface in software you now believe works perfectly.
We provided Torsten with all the necessary information to fix this issue, along with a developer copy of the CRJ to test things. I'm sure he will come up with a solution soon and park XPUIPC again in the right place.

That's very interesting and enlightening. Just have to wait for the new version I guess (might get to use the XPCRJ for the last leg at this rate ;))

It took a while, maybe. But it seems we have a solution!
