Hello,
As long as I've used FSUIPC in the past, including with the RTM version of Windows 8, I have not had a single G3D.dll crash. However, on the 8.1 Preview (upcoming update for Windows 8), I get a fatal error right before FSX would normally be loading the main menu. I am curious if this could potentially be fixed via a future update to FSUIPC, or if 8.1 will be the end of being able to run FSX on the latest version of Windows.
In case it is of any use, here is the error log from Event Viewer:
Faulting application name: fsx.exe, version: 10.0.61637.0, time stamp: 0x46fadb14 Faulting module name: g3d.dll, version: 10.0.61637.0, time stamp: 0x46fadb58 Exception code: 0xc0000005 Fault offset: 0x000c1699 Faulting process id: 0x16b4 Faulting application start time: 0x01ce7378914b6ed7 Faulting application path: C:\FSX\fsx.exe Faulting module path: C:\FSX\g3d.dll Report Id: ddeb18e1-df6b-11e2-bf4e-002215eead5a Faulting package full name: Faulting package-relative application ID:
Thanks in advance.
