[RESOLVED] SimDirector crashes after loading scenario

[yorammelnik]

HI,
After 10 days of learning how to work with pr3d simdirector suddenly crashes when running it. I get a "Loading complete" message and then black screen for 10 seconds and it crashes.
Tried running it from cmd, from tools menu in pr3d but still crashes.
Running the pr3d simulator works fine.
uninstalled and installed it again but still crashes.
I did notice that only the default scenario loads without generating the ObjectLoadErrors.txt file but it seems as running info and not errors.
I hope someone can help me....
thx

sample "ObjectLoadErrors.txt" file data:

RealismOverrides2 Information: Using default UnlimitedFuel (Limited)
RealismOverrides2 Information: Using default AvatarNoCollision (Disabled)
RealismOverrides2 Information: Using default AircraftLabels (Enabled)

Can you try clearing your generated files or disabling your addons if you have any and see if SimDirector still crashes?

If that doesn't fix the crash, please follow the general debugging steps to help us identify the issue: http://www.prepar3d.com/forum/viewtopic ... 2&t=123246

Thanks.
How do I clear the generated files?
I do not have add ons.

Go to the following locations and delete these folders:

• %PROGRAMDATA%\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4
• %LOCALAPPDATA%\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4
• %APPDATA%\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4

If you're using v4, you can run the "Delete Generated Files" file in your Prepar3D directory instead.

I apologize for the stupid question but I can't find these environment variables:
%PROGRAMDATA%
%LOCALAPPDATA%
%APPDATA%

running "Delete Generated Files" file did the job and SimDirector did not crach.
Thanks a lot.
