What sort of steps do you take to get this working? You want to make sure that nothing is doubled-up, which means that a few files will need to be deactivated, in particular the Airport Facilities files. This isn't simple, as there are a lot of files involved, and some are intertwined. For instance, the airport elevation is controlled by more than one file, in more than one location, and these probably exist for both Real NZ and NZNI.
So you really need to switch off all the NZNI files relating to Tauranga, in the Orbx folders and in Scenery\World\Scenery. My patches normally rename these to .bak.
If it crashes after you've done this, then I don't know what is happening. If it works, then you really need to check that there are not too many elevation issues between the Real NZ airport/flatten and the NZNI elevation mesh.
I have mentioned before that since Vector Land Class, some people might prefer to switch off the larger aerial image for Tauranga, as this is a colourised image, so it isn't really up to standard for FSX these days.
