Blue Screen of Death

[ardypilot]

Help me!

Last night I downloaded 'aa-1aac1.zip' from Suclaro.com (A fs2002 Gruman AA-1 that I was told worked fine in fs2004). I installed it (copied the aircraft and guages folders into my main fs9 directory), then when I selected the aircraft in the main menu, it told me some elements of the aircraft would not run correctly with fs9 and would I like to disable them now?

I clicked yes, and proceeded to load the flight, but before the loading bar got to 100%, I got the B.S.D appear and had to restart my computer.

I removed all the Grumman AA files I had put in my fs9 directory, and loaded up my default flight. The bar got to 56% before the sim crashed, and I got an error message up saying fs9 had to close because it encountered a serious error. I clicked to see what file was causing this and found that it was 'G2D.DLL' in my modules folder. I clicked ok, and I got the B.S.D and had to restart my machine.

Once I had returned to my desktop, I found the .ddl and renamed it to 'G2D.DLL.err' and start fs9. This time, I instantly got a message box saying the recorder module was not working, please contact the author. I clicked pressed CTRL+ALT+DEL to stop fs9.exe, then got another error message up telling me fs9 had encountered a serious error. I clicked the 'more' link again and it found this:

szAppName : fs9.exe    szAppVer : 9.0.0.30612    szModName : hungapp   
szModVer : 0.0.0.0    offset : 00000000

Does anyone know what the heck is going on and how I can resolve this?

i didn't copy the gauges into my fs9 folder and it worked perfectly. I just put the grumman AA-1 v3 AAC folder into aircraft folder for mine to work. Did you delete the gauges in the gauges folder when you said you deleted the aircraft.


And if your flight sim dosn't work its all my fault

Probably easiest to do a restore, then load the Grumman again but answer "NO".

Did you delete the gauges in the gauges folder when you said you deleted the aircraft.

Yes I did, but that reminds me, when I copied the Grumman gauges into the folder, it asked me whether I wanted to replace one of them (which I must have already had), and I clicked OK.

Could someone please try copying the Grumman guages into thier FS9 folder, but when it asks you whether you want to overwrite the certain gauge, click NO, then find the name of the guage it was asking for, and send it to me??

And if your flight sim dosn't work its all my fault

Hey Brennan, it is not your fault at all- only mine for being careless with the install. Don't worry

[Brennanx]

I will do that gauge bit for you

when i try do it it says 8FW.gau
and 8FW_fsd_left.fuel.gauge
and 8FW_fsd_right.fuel gauge

^^^^^^^^ is that what u were trying to find? because i dont think it is

and if you get the grummans going you have to change your weather to mega hot and humid so they lift of the ground

I got those messages to in FS04 but it didn't crash the sim (I copied the gauges) I have just migrated it to FSX with the migration tool I will see how it goes with that.

P.S. try re downloading it, but from flightsim.com this time

A lot of the ex payware that worked fine in FS2002 has issues in FS9 thats why it becomes free. The advent of FSX means we are being swamped with former FS2002 ex payware addons.

Guages are the most common cause of problems funny enough.

the thing is it works fine with me but not him

Oh I thaught he ment ex-paywere

There would be some ex-payware add-ons floating around those sites, the trick is separating the 1 payware add-on from the rest.

isnt this thread meant to be helping him? lol

[ardypilot]

Hmm, well this morning I restored 'G2D.DLL' and VOZed in, and everything is working sweet. I also defragged both my C:/ (operating system) and E:/ (flight sim) harddrives, so maybe that helped...

As for free ex-payware:

Bill and Lynn Lyons have decided (as they did for FS2002 in the past) to 'move on' and start something new. At the same time they have made a wonderful present to the international flightsimming community by releasing their previous payware packages as FREEWARE now !

So just search 'Lyon' in any sim search engine and you will love the results

[ardypilot]

Hmmm, I havn't taken a sim flight in 5 days, but when I loaded up my default flight today I got the B.S.D. again... better try defragging and see what happens...
