I agree that this is like chasing the wind. I went ahead and uninstalled FSX-SE. Since DTG ( on the steam forum) is not even acknowledging that there is a problem or at least that they will look into it, I will let them concentrate on their DLC. Its likely that I will remove all flight sims from all my PC's; they all have "chase the wind" issues to one degree or another, and since there is nothing I can do to help, there is no sense being frustrated. Until there is a good reason for "me" ( I speak only for me ) to care about flight simming, I will take up another hobby for now. SCS Euro truck sim is stable, looks great/real , is now 64bit (before it needed to be), there is steady progress, and good steady communication from the developers. Take care Pete, paul

Same results with the "h" patch except the last line "sim stopped" on the log is missing (?)

I will give this new patch a go with the same EHAM-PANC flight that always results in a terrain.dll crash. I wonder if DTG would allow us to be on a beta team to get this resolved?? In my view Pete, this problem should be fixed by DTG, so you can work on bigger and better things :-) I sure do appreciate all your efforts to help us simmers. Paul

Understood, I will intentionally fly some flights I know I had success with. If I see any terrain.dll crashes logged in the FSUIPC4.LOG then I will post it here. Thank you, Paul

Glad to help anyway I can. I will continue to monitor this thread and other terrain.dll error threads if there are any other possible patches/solutions to test. Thank you Pete, Paul

Ok I see and understand that the original patch was incorrect, no problem. For me this is no waste of time and I'm so glad to be a part of an attempt to help the simming community. I will install the newer patch and try again. However, in case this may be of help, I did fly with that original patch and crashed with this about 1 hour into the flight: Source Microsoft Flight Simulator® Summary Stopped working Date 1/26/2015 8:58 PM Status Report sent Description Faulting Application Path: E:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\FSX\fsx.exe Problem signature Problem Event Name: APPCRASH Application Name: fsx.exe Application Version: 10.0.62608.0 Application Timestamp: 54abe5b4 Fault Module Name: ntdll.dll Fault Module Version: 6.1.7601.22436 Fault Module Timestamp: 521eaa80 Exception Code: c0000005 Exception Offset: 000343d0 OS Version: 6.1.7601.2.1.0.256.1 Locale ID: 1033 Additional Information 1: 9e27 Additional Information 2: 9e2778096e7e1e2a2e0302fe58f3eea8 Additional Information 3: 9e27 Additional Information 4: 9e2778096e7e1e2a2e0302fe58f3eea8 Extra information about the problem Bucket ID: 817181142

Hi Pete, Patching now and following instructions concerning the INI edit. I'm off to a long flight from EHAM to PANC in the default 747 using default "ultra high" settings. No FSX-SE.cfg edits. This exact same flight and settings always crashes ( terrain.dll) on me in approx. 3-5 hours I will let you know as soon as the crash happens or if I can complete the flight. Thank you, Paul
