P3Dv4.5 CTD

Delta558 · May 14, 2019

Hi,

I'm using the latest download of FSUIPC (5.151) with P3D v4.5 (4.5.11.29713).

For a while I have been having CTD every time I started a flight - menus load okay but as soon as the flight finishes loading I have about 3 seconds before it crashes. In the event viewer, the details are as follows:

- <Event xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/win/2004/08/events/event">

- <System>

<Channel>Application</Channel>

</System>

- <EventData>

<Data>Prepar3D.exe</Data>

<Data>KERNELBASE.dll</Data>

<Data>5caeae18</Data>

<Data>F:\P3Dv4\Prepar3D.exe</Data>

<Data>C:\Windows\system32\KERNELBASE.dll</Data>

</EventData>

</Event>

I have fully uninstalled the sim and all addons. Re-installed the sim, it loaded fine and I was able to fly. Installed FSUIPC, registered it, same CTD scenario as before. In the DLL.xml, it is the only addon showing, and setting it to disabled (as below) allows the sim to run. I have tried this multiple times, switching between false and true and every time disabled=false I get the instant CTD.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>

<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">
<Descr>Launch</Descr>
<Filename>dll.xml</Filename>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>

    <Disabled>True</Disabled>
    <Path>F:\P3Dv4\Modules\FSUIPC5.dll</Path>
   </Launch.Addon>
</SimBase.Document>

(Edit: having just read the 'please read before posting' sticky, here is the install log:

I have since started adding in both scenery and aircraft addons one-by-one, the CTD still only occurs when FSUIPC has been enabled, it is the same reference in the event viewer. Any help would be seriously appreciated at this point in time!

Cheers,

Paul.

Hi Paul,

when you 'fully uninstalled the sim', did you also remove 'generated content', as explained in the P3D Download and Installation Directions' (last page)?

I ask as your symptoms sound like it could be a corrupt weather file, probably the wxstationlist.bin. Usually this would cause P3D to crash as soon as SimConnect is asked to read the weather. Can you check your user Appdata\roaming P3D4 folder, where your PREPAR3D.cfg file is. If the file is there, please delete it - it will be re-generated when you next start P3D. FSUIPC now removes this file automatically when it shuts down correctly.

If that doesn't sort your problem, it could be one of the other wx files. Please make a safe copy of the .wx files in your P3D files folder, in Documents, then delete one at a time, testing after each. Before that, you could try disabling weather completely by adding the following to the [general] section of the ini file:

NoWeatherAtAll=Yes

Let me know how these tests go.

Regards,

John

Hello John,

Thanks very much for the info - it appears the culprit was the wxstationlist.bin file, your first suggestion. I've gradually been adding back in the addons I'm working on at the moment and there have been no further instances so far, FSUIPC is up and running (and still probably the single most important addon even though it just ticks along in the background!)

Best wishes,

Paul.
