FSX SE crashing - rocsen - 2015-03-07

With FSXWX running, I can cause FSX SE to crash by making a change to time/date or by saving the game twice. It only crashes the second time one of these actions are done from the toolbar.

I don't have FSX Steam, so I can only speculate: maybe it has something to do with simconnect.

Apparently, other addons also have this problem and various answers/reports suggest that you have to install the legacy simconnect interface.
Thus, go to "C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\SDK\Core Utilities Kit\SimConnect SDK\LegacyInterfaces" and install all "SimConnect.msi" in each subfolder.

At least, maybe worth a try...

And in case any other FSX Steam user reads this: please tell if you have the same problem. Thx.

That seemed to have worked, thank you!

I installed simconnect before but wasn't aware I had to do it for all the folders.

Excellent add-on by the way, really enjoying it :-)

I found deleting the wxstationlist.bin in your %appdata%\Microsoft\FSX folder also helps with random crashes. This file will be automatically rebuilt when FSX is started the next time.
