FSUIPC Crash

[runwaypimp]

Hey Guys,

I've had a problem with FSUIPC crashing upon loading FSX since a few days before the security flaw.

At the time, it was resolved by uninstalling a demo for FSDT's JFK. Maybe it was just a coincidence, but it worked fine after.

However, it has recently started to crash again, now running the lastest version too.

My FSX is almost plain vanilla as its used for development. I never had problems with FSUIPC before.

I am running Windows8 64bit. I can't really think of anything else relevant.

I just thought I'd ask for help before I have to wipe FSX & re-install.

I just thought I'd ask for help before I have to wipe FSX & re-install.

Don't do that. I see from the picture you posted that it does actually identify a place inside FSUIPC, so this means FSUIPC was actually loaded and running. So it isn't the SimConnect timing bug as before.

When you say "latest version", I see from that pic too that it is in fact 4.900, the main first release with the signature reoved. If it were 4.904 (the latest release from Download Links) then I could use the Offset shown (almost readable in the pic, 0001c614 perhaps?) to see whereabouts the problem lies. But unfortunately I don't have 4.900 now, only 4.904.

So, please:

1. Install 4.904 (you simply copy in the DLL from the downloaded ZIP)

2. Reproduce the error, note the fault module name, version, exception code and exception offset from the details as in your pic

3. Post here with those details, the FSUIPC4.LOG, and your FSUIPC4.INI file.

I will then be on the case immediately, as I don't like these sorts of things occurring in FSUIPC!

Regards

Pete

Hey Pete,

While I was collecting the data you requested & after a couple more crashes & tried copying FSUIPC4_Loader.dll to the modules folder & that seems to have fixed it.

Is this file needed? Or just a coincidence its working. I ran the installer exe from within the zip file, so maybe it wasn't copied.

Thanks for the help.

It is not normally needed, no. It is offered as an option, as clearly described in the Installation guide. Did you not read it?

If you only copied the file in and did not then also rerun the Installer, then it is doing nothing at all.

Regards

Pete
