Crash To Desktop (CTD) Forum

CTD's are a simmer's nightmare. This subforum is established to specifically discuss CTD's. Please do not place CTD messages in the main FSX, FS9, or P3D forums. If you do, they will most likely be moved to this forum.

    Hey, so i have encountered some different problems with my p3d.... Most of the times i cant complete a flight without getting a CTD without getting a error the only thing that happens is P3D Freezes with the sounds on -> Sound disappears -> "P3D doesn't answer" However sometimes it crashes with some error saying that simconnect is the issue. The addons im using: RC Design ESGG v2 Flytampa Copenhagen GSX Aerosoft Airbus A320/A321 And im not sure where to put this but i also have texture issues. My ground textures gets really blurry and sometimes black when im flying, this wouldnt be that annoying if the airport im supposed to land at has black textues …

    Hello all, I hope that someone here could help me because I'm really going mad. P3D v.3.3 crashes everytime I move the focus on another windows, while if I keep the focus on P3D I could fly forever without issues. In years of flight simulation I never ever heard something like that. The error in the event viewer is normally related to kernelbase.dll, sometimes it's menus.dll while a few time it simply closes without any error. I read the guide on AVSIM and I tried anything I could try. Disabled all the addons, lowered the settings, changed videocard drivers and so on, but it still crashes even with default aircrafts and sceneries. My specs are i6700K not O…

    Hi, I think it has to do with the fact that I played with fullscreen and windowed screen, but at least that is when it started: CTD when closing FSX. I have returned to Windowed mode as I used before. I never experienced it then. I start and close FSx without changing the screen format again, but the CTD remained. It might be related so something else I have changed but I cannot figure that out. Any ideas? Thanks Menno

  11. Hi everyone! I've been using p3d since July, before that I was fsx user. With every next CTD, I'm getting more and more nervous. Among others, surely I've encounered also p3d's stereotypical "msvcr120.dll" problem on long flights, using PMDG. I've read all of comments on that 45-page long topic on LM forum and tried all of things, guys mentioned there. Then I just figured out that best way to avoid this error is to make flight which lasts less than 4 hours. HOW DOES IT HAPPEN: With recent update (v3.4), I've encountered about 4 "UNKNOWN MODULE" errors already and this is what makes me wanna throw my PC through window. On previous version of P3D V3, I had ma…

I decided to install this: https://flyawaysimulation.com/downloads/files/3041/fsx-szd-30-pirat/ yesterday and after doing the install I run the FSX to see splash screen and that's it.

  15. Last weekend I tried doing a flight between KMIA (MS default) and SACO in FS9 (default, reworked AFCAD, default terminal buildings added and photoreal ground textures I generated in SBuilder 2). Keeping with Murphy's law, I was getting a CTD just at approach. After checking with AppCrashView, I saw it was a StackHash error, for which the CTD guide did not give me the best hope. I was fearing a reformat... After trying again (I had just saved 30 NM before the airport), I ran Process Monitor along with FS9, until it crashed. After weeding out all the DLL crashes (every single DLL in FS9 reported buffer error), I found the culprit was a missing winter texture (it's winte…

    Guys, After a 3 year long break from simming, I recently came back into it, with installing FSX on my new PC. Everything was running fine, but I had to Re-install windows 10 a month or so ago... Now I re-installed FSX yesterday and it keeps freezing randomly, anything between 5 mins from the start of the flight, to 20 mins into the flight, usually when I reach my cruising altitude, or just before. I have little addons in FSX at the moment; UK2000 EGCC, EGGW & EGLL CLS Airbus Collection Long Haul, A340-500/600 & B747-200/300. Now ive tested it in different aircraft to make sure its not addon specific, and it still freezes. Ive gone through as many fixes as po…

I've tried the usual fixes involving various versions of the uiautomationcore.dll in various locations, to no avail. I'm using three monitors connected in surround mode to handle the outside or virtual cockpit view, and a second monitor below handles the panels, etc. FSX sees two monitors. The lower one, and a single extra wide monitor. The freezing occurs only when I have both monitors avtive. If I disconnect the three monitors and use just the lower monitor, I cannot replicate the freezing. It can open up nearly unlimited v…

I installed P3D 3.3.5, PMDG 777, GSX, from Anchorage to Korea (almost 8 hours flight), in the process I tried everything I could to make the sim crash. I tried clicking all the MFDs (Yup, the left PFD, too), going between windowed and full screen, and the sim just keeps going. The VAS usage was about 2.5-2.8G or so and was pretty steady. So I proceed to install the rest of my addons, which includes: FSUIPC registered FTX Global, Vector, OpenLC NA, PFJ & SAK AS 2016 + ASCA (Sky texture & cloud struc…

    Hi all, I have another strange problem to figure out. Recently after installing the Majestic Dash 8 Q400 to my sim I've been having an issue. When starting a flight in the Q400, everything is fine, but right after I takeoff (about 5-10 minutes after) the sim hangs, doesn't even crash. I can still hear the engines, but the sim is frozen and I can't minimize or close the game, I've tried waiting it out but nothing happens. And I can't even use the event viewer to diagnose the problem because it doesn't see the crash. Does anyone know why this is happening?
