    As of a couple of days ago (today being Dec 17, 2018), X3 crashes 2 to 20 minutes after starting a game.  It stops without any indication, no default error screen is presented, does not close the game. Does this every time.  Everything ran fine until about the 15th of Dec.

    Using an iMac, v10.14.2, 3.2 GHz Intel Core i5, 16 GB memory (approx 12GB available for the game), NVIDIA GeForce GT 755M 1024MB.

    No changes or additions to any other software.

    1. Please report this on the Egosoft forum where Developers have a much better chance of seeing it.

      This post explains the additional info Devs would like, including a crash dump. Thanks.

    2. Sure you mean X3 and not X4?
