Problems installing KDEN

<< < (3/5) > >>

albix:
Hello Umberto,
yes, i agree with you. The log attached in my last message is with scenery installed AND enabled.

virtuali:
Ok, I downloaded it again, and now it shows KDEN as active. The only thing strange is this line:


--- Quote ---CreateFileMapping failed because the file has size 0 (system:0) accessing BGL file C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Games/Microsoft Flight Simulator X/Scenery/0702/scenery/giza_image.bgl, file ignored
--- End quote ---

This indicates you have a corrupted scenery file from the default scenery, because it shouldn't be of 0 length. However, that shouldn't cause any problems, because the file has been ignored, and the cache regeneration shows as being completed.


--- Quote ---Airport cache regeneration completed with success in 16 seconds
--- End quote ---

The last line shows:


--- Quote ---Connection with FSX lost (has it crashed?)
--- End quote ---

Have you seen a crash from FSX ? This message indicates that the program cannot communicate with FSX anymore, but it wasn't a regular quit (when quitting, Simconnect sends a proper message and allows to disconnect gracefully), it was an abrupt loss of communication.

What other add-ons are you running ?

albix:
Umberto, I think that the message was due to the fact that I had to close FSX through Task Manager because (only after having flown to KDEN) it hangs on without closing.

The addons I have installed are too many to be listed. Many Aerosoft, FlyTampa, FSDT, FlightBeam, Orbx, ImagineSim sceneries. UTX, GEX, REX and many Aircraft like PMDG, Majestic, Carenado, A2A, Aerosoft, LeonardoSH...

The doubt I am having now is that i moved and connected through "Junction Link Magic" three folders to a second local drive. They are: Addon Scenery, Aerosoft and Real Environment Xtreme 2.0. Could be a problem? Would be strange then because with all other FSDT and FlightBeam addons I don't have any issue.

Thank you one more time for your help.

No, I don't think it has anything to do with it, what's really shouldn't happen, is that you have everything else from FSDT/Flightbeam working, KDEN is no different!

You can try to activate the Simconnect diagnostic mode,  Open notepad, and copy the following text:


[SimConnect]
level=normal
console=1
RedirectStdOutToConsole=1
OutputDebugString=1
; file=c:\simconnect%03u.log
; file_next_index=0
; file_max_index=9


Save the file as SIMCONNECT.INI in this folder:

Documents And Settings\YOUR LOGIN NAME\Documents\Microsoft Flight Simulator X Files

At the next FSX launch, you should see a text window with diagnostic messages, go to KDEN and see if you see something strange like errors, exceptions, etc, when the menu hangs. Note that, you should do all of this in Windowed mode.

albix:
I created SIMCONNECT.INI file and installed it following your indications. I also double checked it but still cannot see any diagnostic window.

Is the script correct?

Anyway Umberto, I don't want you to waste too much time with me. I see I am the only one having this problem so, most probably, it is due to my configuration. I just ordered a new SSD @ 500GB (good deal BTW  ;))and I will reinstall FSX from scratch. Hopefully everything will run smooth then.
Today we are having a wonderful day In Milan and I hope you will enjoy it.

Thank you very much for your patience and your help. I am looking forward to get KIAH soon.

Grazie mille, ciao!
