P3D - g3d.dll crash?

[Denham_Flyer]

I've been getting this g3d.dll crash since the weekend. It appears to happen when I'm using my Saitek Pro Yoke through FSUIPC. If I click the top hat left button the sim freezes and I get the g3d.dll error message.

 

I had a look back into my saved axis settings and for some reason it keeps changing the assignment to "Prop Pitch" on the top hat left switch even though this is already mapped to the throttle quadrant. When I change it back to the correct setting it remembers it for that session and then it crashes the next time I boot up the sim using the Yoke. My FF joystick is unaffected but also mapped via FSUIPC.

 

Any thoughts? I've searched back through topics and noticed g3d.dll appeared to be an airfield issue in FSX.

 

Am using the latest registered version of FSUIPC.

 

Thanks,

"This" G3D.DLL crash? There isn't ONE G3D.DLL crash, but very many. They are almost all down to scenery problems. the only one i've ever had dealings with was one very specific one which was actually avoidable by a patch in FSX. I've never got involved in such things for P3D because P3D is under active development, unlike FSX. You need to report crashes to Lockheed-Martin.

FSUIPC saves any settings changes immediately you exit the FSUIPC menu. FSX and P3D only save settings upon a successful close of the program, so they may well lose settings if you get a crash first.

 

FSUIPC will never change any of your assignments. If you are seeing what you think is that in FSUIPC it is probably that you are using different assignments for different aircraft, or even different variants of the same aircraft. Check your FSUIPC4.INI  file, see what you've done.

OK thanks for the info Pete. I'll check the INI tonight.
