• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

FSXA SDK crashing FSX?

HI Guys,
The dreaded SDK again I'm afraid.
I have installed the SDK, which in turn is showing the 'TOOLS' tab and therein the 'OPT' tab in FSX.
My problem is that as soon as I click on the OPT, it crashes and closes FSX.

Any advice or help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards
Brian

Still baffled

Hi Paul,
Thanks for your reply, it was much appreciated.

I did indeed read the post you refer to and I am still getting the same result.
The TOOLS tab is there, the OPT is there, but when I click on the OPT tab it just crashes FSX and closes.

Here is my dll.xml,


and here is my ADE Checker result,


I do hope someone can help with this, as I want to get down to some scenery design and editing.
Cheers for now
Brian

Hi Folks

Brian -
Look at your screenie for the ADE-Check dialog -

-- FSX - Version - value

-- FSX SDK - BGLComp Version - value

The two values SHOULD be the same versions.

Currently you've installed FSX Acceleration
with FSX SDK SP2, (should be FSX SDK Acceleration).

Great support and help.

Hi Paul,
Thank you for pointing out to me what was blatantly obvious.
I can only apologise.
I do thank you though, for getting me up and running again with the SDK.
I must have had a memory lapse, as I have installed the SDK before, so I don't know where I slipped up.
I do tend to install stuff when I'm a little tired, so I must have skipped a couple of lines from the help files.

Thanks again, your help is much appreciated.
Cheers
Brian

Hi Brian

No worries.

Version and path errors
account for 99.9% of all user's SDK install problems.
