bglmanx.dll
« on: April 12, 2019, 07:14:44 pm »
I can’t find the bglmanx.dll in my FSX folder after I run the live update which causes my payware aircraft to crash and don’t have terminal showing up

If the file is just not there, that's clearly an antivirus fault, which has removed the .DLL because of an antivirus bug, having mistakenly flagged as a threat (which obviously isn't).

If the file is missing, it's entirely normal terminals won't show up, since it's required by all our sceneries. But if the .DLL is missing, it cannot obviously cause a crash, since something that is just "not there", cannot be loaded, hence cannot be the cause of your crash.

Instead, the same antivirus that has mistakenly remove the bglmanx.dll, might just be the cause of your airplane crash.

This is going to be a quality wing issue. I ran FSDT Addon and got everything back but the qw757 crashes. And when I reinstall qw the scenery is messed up I get a msg GSX is outdated and my bglmax.dll is out of date so now I’ll post on as forum

You should never install the QW757 *after* a recent FSDT update, because by doing this, you downgraded the Addon Manager, since the old QW installers haven't been updated to support our new Live Update system. Because of this, you should ALWAYS run the latest FSDT Live Update AFTER you install the QW757, to fix everything back to the latest and correct version.

The issue of the QW757 crashing at start, is caused because, a few years ago, Esellerate changed its own library and SDK, to be compatible with an OS update that happened at that time. This required to make a few small changes to the QW757 Gauges, to be compatible with the new Esellerate library.

However, you can solve the crash on start, if you save a default flight with ANY other airplane than the 757, then switch to the 757 after the sim is loaded. This will allow you to use the 757 with the latest updates from FSDT. If the Gauge code of the airplane were to be updated as well, this wouldn't be required.

We offered QW our support if they wanted our help to update their installer, and to update their Gauge so users won't run into this issues, but they didn't seem interested, I guess they see the 757 as a Legacy product.

Ok so I deleated QW reran the FSDT Addon manager then reinstalled QW. Still the same issue I have QW but FSDT scenery still no terminals. If I delete QW then rerun FSDT I will have my scenery back. But no Qw so guess my QW has seen its last days time to take it to get scrapped.

That's to be expected. If you do exactly the opposite of what I suggested, it's no wonder nothing works. I'll quote again the relevant parts of my previous message, which included all the information you need to fix this problem:

You should never install the QW757 *after* a recent FSDT update

AND

Quote
you should ALWAYS run the latest FSDT Live Update AFTER you install the QW757

AND (after doing this, so you run the latest FSDT Update WITHOUT having downgraded by a subsequent QW757 installation:

Quote
you can solve the crash on start, if you save a default flight with ANY other airplane than the 757, then switch to the 757 after the sim is loaded.

I'll try to make it even more clear (hopefully):

- Save a startup flight with any plane which is not the QW757

1) Install the QW757

2) Install anything from FSDT, like GSX, for example, which will run the Live Update.

3) DO NOT install the QW757 again! If you *must* reinstall it for any reason, do it, and redo Step #2

This is the EXACT steps I took
1 delete qwing
2 deleted live update
3. Deleated GSX
4. INSTALLED addon manager
5 installed QW
6 started sim
7 started flight from saved default
8 changed a/c to qw757
9 hung up and cdt
So it still looks like a conflict in the .dll until qw steps up its going to continue.

And as I've said, multiple time, they are WRONG, and NOT what I suggested to do. You keep doing the same mistake of installing QW last, when I clearly said you must install FSDT last!

No, there's no conflict. The problem it's that you keep doing the installation in the opposite order I suggested.

Uninstalled Qw and FSDT
Installed QW
Reinstalled FSDT live update
Started default flight
Swapped to QW
Get the Addon GSX is out-of date and this is the newest update
Get your copy of blgmanx.dll is outdated
So I may be old and my head may have aged but I’m not
Crazy

Uninstalled Qw and FSDT
Installed QW
Reinstalled FSDT live update

And you did it wrong, AGAIN. You keep doing the same mistake of installing the QW and not installing something from FSDT AFTER it.

You said "Reinstalled the FSDT Live Update. But you cannot "reinstall" the FSDT Live Update. The Live update is not a separate program you can install or download, it's only installed together with a recent version of any FSDT product, like GSX or any scenery.

Since you cannot "reinstall" the FSDT Live Update, I can only assume you meant "Ran the FSDT Live Update" and, as I've said multiple times, this is not enough and won't work.

You MUST reinstall something from FSDT AFTER the QW757, for example GSX. This will come with the latest Live Update, and will run it automatically at the end.

It's not possible that you would get an "outdated bglmanx.dll" message if you do this. The ONLY possible reason you get that message, is if you install the QW after FSDT.

Or, of course, if your antivirus is interfering, so it's blocking for some reason the download of the current version of the files. The antivirus should always configured to exclude the WHOLE Addon Manager folder, if you suspect it might interfere with it.

Started FSX
Started flight at KORD with a default A/C
Switched to QW
