[RESOLVED] P3Dv4.3 CTD Ref Weather.DLL

Post by soupermike »

Hello, need some help. Keep getting the error (CTD) below in my log whenever I try to run p3dv4. I've run the repair option, but no luck so far. This came out of the blue. I'm running Ultimate Traffic Live, Rex Skyforce 3D, FSUIPC 5, and GSX.

Prepar3D.exe Stopped working 8/19/2018 12:05:42 PM All Users 0xc000040
The system detected an overrun of a stack-based buffer in this application. This overrun could potentially allow a malicious user to gain control of this application. 0x0004a414 weather.dll 4.3.29.25520 F:\Program Files\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4\Prepar3D.exe 37,924 C:\Users\All Users\Microsoft\Windows\WER\ReportArchive\AppCrash_Prepar3D.exe_f6d55361543162ed54b538e186933a2a2d87943c_c489461d_1ef62e88\Report.wer

I had this too and it's related to weather files. I deleted wxstationlist.bin (%appdata%\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4) and also the weather file of the actually loaded situation on startup (in your name\documents\prepar3d v4 files). Since then, my sim runs again without problem. Somehow these files got corrupted, don't know how. I use Skyforce, maybe this.
