Hi Pete!

[fsx_lover_2014]

I'm thinking of buying FSUIPC since I've been using the free version for 2 years...

 

None of my particular add-ons use FSUIPC but I remember reading from an unreliable source that FSUIPC helps prevent particular crashes such as g3d.dll and ntdll.dll crashes...is this true?

 

If it does help prevent these, I would like to purchase...could you confirm?

 

Thank you!

With FSX (only, not FSX-SE, where it is fixed internally), FSUIPC can trap and prevent ONe (1) out of many possible G3D.DLL crashes. It was one brought about by rather dodgy scenery -- it never happened to me in any case, even without that fix.

 

It doesn't do any other "bug" fixes for FSX, and the G3D patch didn't need a purchase in any case. It was added long ago (Feb 2012) -- see the Version 4.80 entries in the FSUIPC4 History document, which will be in your FSUIPC Documents folder.

 

Anyway, perhaps you should try FSX-SE. It is more reliable and faster, IMHO.

Thank you so much Pete, this was really helpful!  I'll likely still purchase this great software because it help smooth default FSX wind gusting.

 

PS, good tip with FSX-SE!
