I just installed FSUIPC to FSX. When I want to start the game by pressing on "Fly now", it loads to 100%, then it crashes.

The most likely problem is that you have a corrupted weather file (.WX) or station list. FSUIPC is stasrting okay, and it looks like the crash is when it asks Simconnect to supply weather data. This sort of corruption can occur especially if you use FSX real weather downloads from the Microsoft site. Try removing the .WX files from your Flight Simulator X Files folder (in your documents folder).

I see also that you have only applied the one update (SP1) to FSX. I strongly recomment applying SP2 as well, as it fixes a lot of SimConnect problems.

Pete

Hello,

Problem solved after installation of SP2.

Thank you so much,
