Prepar3D v2 Hotfix (2.5.12943.0) **SOLVED**

[SN737]

Thanks Jabloom, then that's the one i've installed. Sadly I had that CTD at the end, I'll keep testing

Well, you got an FSUIPC crash, right ? If yes, that's unrelated to the Addon Manager, since it doesn't use or interact with FSUIPC.

No, I got the same module error CTD: StackHash_0a9e, P3D Appcrash

I too was getting the stackhash crash within 60 seconds after opening P3D 2.5 (plus hotfix) after installing the first of several FSDT airports I own (JFK).

I am happy to report that the installation of the VC 2013 runtimes, plus the updated bglmanx.dll has completely solved the problem.

How soon will this fix be incorporated into the retail add-on manager? I plan to install the rest of my FSDT and FlightBeam airports tonight. Until I hear otherwise, I will simply hand-copy the updated DLLs back into my P3D folder after doing the rest of the installations.

That's likely entirely unrelated to the Addon Manager. As you can see from all the replies arrived so far, everyone that installed the new version using VC++ 2013 libraries, reported the problem has been fixed.

This is very good to hear, and all the others that tried it seems to confirm it. It's very relieving. We haven't changed a single line of code in the Addon Manager, just compiled with the latest Visual Studio, so the executable would now use the VC++ 2013 runtime libraries instead. It was clearly an issue of a conflict between runtime libraries, which are very difficult to find.

How soon will this fix be incorporated into the retail add-on manager?

We'll test it further, I would also like to hear more feedback from FSX users too, but I already got a couple of reports by email from some FSX users, and they seems to be positive so, hopefully this update would be included with the standard installation.

Yes, just do that once as the last step, after installing everything else.

I will reformat and reinstall everything from scratch, it may vey well be another add-on that uses the same .dll that triggers that specific CTD.
I'll be posting in LM's forum also, if it's the hotfix issue it will happen with other add ons as you said
Thanks for your support

Happy to report, I did 12 hours flight and no CTD!! Thanks...

Seems to work, fixed my crashes,  I'm assuming do not up date add-on-mgr or if I do re install the files downloaded from this thread into the main Prepar3d directory...thanks for speedy fix to this ,, much appreciated...

Yes, for the time being, I guess (considering the very good feedback we are having) we'll exit from the testing phase and make it official, so that download link will go away, and you'll will then know the files has made it in the standard installer.

I was also able to complete two full flights last night without incident. Great job in fixing this, thanks!

[SN737]

Re-installed VC++ 2013 libraries, and re-copied the files from the new add-on manager and that worked fortunately.
Strange but maybe as I've installed the 64bit version first and then the 32bit one, that created some problem and was still having the CTD's.

Thanks again for the fix
Regards

One more voice that the updated bglmanx and vc runtimes fixed my stackhash issues (have several fsdt airports and the QW 757) in P3Dv2.5 post-hotfix.

[razalom]

Fixed my P3D crashes so great work on the update

[virtuali]

Thank you to all of you. I guess it looks like we could make it official then very soon.

The new Addon Manager .DLL/.DAT files we tested in this thread are now the official version so, from now on, everybody will get it automatically, even when running a previous installer.

The only thing to note, for those using existing installers, is that they don't contain the VC++ 2013 runtime redistributables so, if you still don't have it installed it in your system, you must download it separately, from the below link, and choose the x86 version:

http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=40784

We also updated the Stand-Alone Addon Manager installer, so it now includes and installs the VC++ 2013 runtimes automatically, so if you are not sure about the runtimes, the updated Stand-Alone Addon Manager contains the correct version and installs it automatically. In the next days, we'll also update all the products installers to include and install the VC++ 2013 runtimes, so this won't be an issue anymore.

Also, the link we posted to the testing version has been replaced to a link to download the Stand-Alone Addon Manager installer, so nobody reading this thread will end downloading the testing version by mistake...

In English we have a phrase 'from the frying-pan into the fire' and that applies very much to my experience with this CTD ... I applied the workaround and it worked. What do I do next?? ... I install Flightbeam';s KIAD ... and what do I get ... you've guessed ... the good old oa9e ... I am beginning to wonder why I bother ... life's too short ... UPDATE since posting, downloaded the latest standalone Addon Manager, reinstalled the airports involved and so far so good ...
