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.

  1. Hi, I've been having some serious difficulties making ReShade work with P3D 3.2.For some weird reason, when ReShade is enabled, it causes an insta CTD when loading programs like Active Sky 2016, vPilot and TrackIR (all of which utilizes simconnect). If I disable Reshade, all addons load perfectly fine, and the sim works normally. My usual procedure is to load up the sim with the given scenario THEN start vPilot, AS2016, TrackIR and so on. However, if I start AS2016 during the load screen, it connects normally to the sim and loads weather. This does not work for vPilot though. TrackIR needs to be started in-game, or else it messes up EZdok. The event manage…

    Ever since I re-installed my PMDG 777 onto my FSX:SE, I've gotten crashes with the file causing it being weather.dll. I've read all the previous topics about this, deleted every single .WX file on my PC, and deleted the fsx.cfg in order to get a new one. I even uninstalled the PMDG 777 and re installed it. The only way I can fly is with the settings being on clear skies, but I want to do some real life weather, as clear skies is starting to bore me (you can understand, right?) The game has a fatal error and CTD a few seconds into the game, no matter what aircraft of where I am, or even what weather type, as long as it is not the clear skies setting. I don't want to u…

    I was doing a flight from LOWW/KMEM PMDG777F Left flight to fly overnight. Got up this morning and I was 400 miles away from KMEM. I had to go to work so I put the SIM on PAUSE. Came home and un-paused the sim and started clicking away to set up for landing and clicked the center fuel shutoff switches and got the below error. I had this happen the other day on a flight I pause for more than 8 hours when I depressed the LSK button. Could this be a result of just a long pause? Report is from APPCrashview.

    After hundreds and hundreds of posts in this thread: http://forum.avsim.n...179-gd3dllhelp/ Pete Dowson incl. the help of many, has found a solution (or better said "crash prevention") for some g3d.dll errors/crashes many are experiencing. The common sceneries causing this are Aerosoft EBBR, EDDF, ESSA, LOWI and generally ORBX area. It has been confirmed by already couple of persons that the crashes don't any more occur. Even hard test-configurations where users were having certain crashes have passed. If there are any drawbacks, they are yet unknown. The solution is implemented in his FSUIPC. Important: this might not be the solution for every g3d…

    Hi there, My last succesful flight was 3 months ago. FSX ALWAYS crashes. I think it is because i'm using dozens of add-ons. I have managed to solve all my dll errors by deleting ALL the uiautomationcore.dll files (both in fsx and windows directories). But i still get an error (AppHangB1) everytime I am flying the PMDG 777, from Athens to Dubai, in the middle of the flight. I have made 3 attempts, both ended up screaming in front of my screen.

    So today I was flying from Denver to SFO in the NGX. I had just installed P3D v3 over the weekend along with FTX Norcal. I was flying from Flightbeam's Denver to Flightbeam's SFO. At FL300 directly over the Yosemite valley, I experienced a CTD. Back when I had FSX, I used the uiautomationcore.dll file. Do you need this in P3D v3 as well? Also, is there a way for me to find out what caused P3D to crash? I've noticed when other people experience a CTD, they post an error log. How do I find this? The only option I was presented with was an option to close the program now. That's also why I didn't post this into the FTX support forum or over at the PMDG forum. I d…

I don't have all of the aircraft yet installed, but have most of the scenery object: ORBX, and several payware airports.

Just tried the same flight twice, and same thing happened when i attempted to adjust alt with Saitek. However it happens also without touching any control, sometimes in a cruise setting, no inputs of any kind, and suddenly i get the windows dump. Can a…

    Hello all, I have used the payware version of FSopen Clouds for some years. Of late it is causing P3D 3.2.3 to CTD when an airport anywhere North of Hamberg and East of Berlin is selected. Elsewhere in the world it works as expected (i.e. Wesern Europe and Alaska). I have installed AoN and SWD scenery for Scandinavia but the CTD's happen with or without scenery activation. I have emailed Dave Wave twice and posted to the FSopen forum which despite previewing and being submitted OK is not showing in the forum. Has FSopen stopped trading? Anybody have an handle on why Scandinavia area causing a CTD. Any information gratefully received. Thanks and regards…

    Hi all, I have recently tried my first flight with 737 ngx in FSX but when I try to end flight, instead to ending it, the fsx crashes and restarts. The faulting module is pmdg737.dll I tried to search solution online and tried a few things with controllers. But it did not help. However, when I turn on Preview DX10, the crash does not occur then. With DX10 when I "end flight", the FSX just shuts down completely, instead of taking me to the "Free Flight" page which it normally should. But at least the crash error does not show and fsx does not restart due to crash. The problem is when I have DX10 activated, it makes all my addon airports messy, extre…
