T6 navdatabase update leads to WASM crash

After updating navdatabase using the navigraph hub, when loading the T6 it has all the cockpit screens with orange WASM crash and cannot be used any more.

I doubt you are talking about MSFS 2024 T6 Texan. Please confirm the aircraft and FlightSim.

If Blackbirds TA6, MSFS 2024, note there has been a new update in the Hub as per Navdata for Blackbirds TA-6 failst to install, deletes default - #7 by NAVData

Sorry, I did not specify but yes, correct, I am using MSFS 2024 and I am talking about Blackbird T6. I have checked that the Hub installs the updated files in the correct folder, but I still get the WASM crash. In order to fly again, I have to either re-install the T6 or just copy again the original nav database files. Where can I get this new update? Am I missing something?

As per Navdata for Blackbirds TA-6 failst to install, deletes default - #11 by NAVData, the new update is now in the Hub. In the Hub MSFS 2024 tab, remove and reinstall the TA6 package.

Hi,
I can confirm the WASM crash, but it seems to be related to the new SU5, since it worked with SU4. We also have a few confirmations here and in the ticket system. I would recommend informing the devs about this crash; not sure what we can do here…

There are tons of WASM crash reports of different aircraft/addons since SU5, so it could also be an issue from ASOBO/MS.

Sorry,
Richard

Ok I finally managed to have it working fine, after updating database you also need to manually update the layout.json file and that is it. So I can confirm that my T6 is now working fine with the actual database, thanks.

Ui, well done - yes, you are right, and I have forgotten it …

In MSFS2024, since SU3 (I guess), all variable data that are not part of the working folder must have a correct layout.json file. That’s why most addon developers have changed the data path to this working folder to avoid rebuilding the layout.json file.

The T6 is primarily an MSFS2020 addon; you can also use it in MSFS2024, but with limitations. One limitation is that you must rebuild the layout.json file after each AIRAC update to avoid such issues.

Thank you again for the heads up and for sharing your findings with us. Much appreciated!

Cheers,
Richard

I was super excited about the latest update for the T6 but still get the WASM crash. What do you mean update the .json file? How does one go about doing this?

After updating the database, to avoid the wasm crash, you need to either update the layout.json file in the root folder of your T6, either manually or using MSFS Layout generator that you can download it from the web, just google for it. Use it and everything will work again.
