TBM850 by Wilco released

Can anyone get it to load in Windows 8? Keeps crashing FSX. There's some help on the Wilco website for Win 7 / Vista, and I tried that, and reinstalled a few times, but that didn't work. I'm anxious to compare it the the Carenado.
 
Have experienced it. Also confirmed by several on avsim forum.
Too bad I was really looking forward to this one.
 
Not surprising, it seems we all too often nowadays we have to pay for the right to be beta testers and bug finders. The only other choice seems to be to wait for the nth Service Pack to solve all the problems that should have been fixed before release. I've stopped supporting certain software providers that release bug ridden software at a premium price and those providers that never bother to finish or fix the software they do release. It's the only way I can think of to brighten them up, hit 'em in the pocketbook. It isn't as if there aren't many other providers to choose from that do an excellent job and release their software with minimal if any fixing needed.
 
I hate bugs that only hide during testing and after we all test it, we launch and things go horribly wrong. :( Sometimes the entire team never experience certain issues and then the public find things that were never happening on the test computers.

I hope they get the bugs fixed soon.
 
I thought you were talking about the real TBM, the Grumman Avenger. Not some light airplane.
Sorry about the confusion.
 
Looks like anyone wanting a TBM850 better stick with the Carenado model, at least until any issues with the Wilco version are ironed out. Personally I am now giving Wilco a wide birth as I wasn't all that impressed with my last couple of purchases,.
