Milviz Cessna 310R CTD in Windows 11

[Ray Hff]

Milviz Cessna 310R in Windows 11 crashes before the loading completes.  Any thoughts??

[mrzippy]

What kind of an error report is generated?  What faulting module?

[Ray Hff]

Really don't know how to view either of those, the error report or module.

 

All I know is after clicking on fly now, in a matter of a couple seconds, the whole program shuts down,

 

[mrzippy]

Go to Start. Search for Events Logs. Open View event logs. Navigate to Custom Views and then Administrative Events and locate the error by FSX.

 

I'll show you an example of the error details :

 

Faulting application name: fsx.exe, version: 10.0.61637.0, time stamp: 0x46fadb14

Faulting module name: This is what is needed!, version: 0.0.0.0, time stamp: 0x00000000

Also, is this an aircraft that you have had for a while?  It isn't a P3d model  I did see one post about some files in the P3d folder that cause an instant CTD in P3d.

[mrzippy]

Looking at the Milviz site, a Cessna 310 is not offered for FSX, only P3d and MSFS 2020.

They don't now, Charlie, but MilViz did offer a C-310 for FSX- I have it. It's also been modified a little to work on P3D V2.4.  The version I have was copyright ©2010 and ©2013.

Thanks, Larry!  I thought they did that's why I asked if he had it for a while.  I doubt the problem is caused by Win11.  I had the thought that an older version for FSX might work only in a 32 bit environment.  Will have to wait to see what the faulting module is.

Such issues are often due to an incompatible gauge, particularly nav or com gauges;  also any gauge which interacts with the system (had a "Radio/CD" gauge which let you operate your computer's CD drive from an "in-dash" unit on the panel, when I transitioned to Win7 any aircraft with this gauge would instantly CTD on loading).

[Ray Hff]

To Zippy:

 

For starters, I'm a bit in over my head here; but, here's what I've uncovered.

 

In Windows 11, you can begin by opening the "Event Viewer".

 

Searching for any errors at the time FSX closed shows a only series of several errors all of which looked like the two below.

 

Id = {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}; ClientMachine = FRONT; User = NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM; ClientProcessId = 3128; Component = Unknown; Operation = Start IWbemServices::CreateInstanceEnum - root\wmi : HpqBIntM; ResultCode = 0x80041032; PossibleCause = Unknown

 

Id = {00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000}; ClientMachine = FRONT; User = Front\Main; ClientProcessId = 4500; Component = Unknown; Operation = Start IWbemServices::ExecQuery - root\cimv2 : SELECT * FROM Win32_NTLogEvent Where Logfile = 'Application' and SourceName = 'Windows Error Reporting' and EventCode=1001 ; ResultCode = 0x80041032; PossibleCause = Unknown

 

I really don't know how to interpret either of those.

 

The Milviz 310R is from a purchase long ago.

 

I have dozens of other aircraft add-ons -- all of which work just fine.

 

This is all in FSX.

 

I'm stumped.

That makes about 3 or 4 of us!   Is the switch to Win 11 recent?  Did the aircraft work a long time ago when you first got it?  I remember some FS2004 aircraft that would give the same CTD when hitting the Fly Now tab.  It was caused by not putting a certain .dll into the main FSX folder for cockpit key-click sounds.  My thopught is that you have something missing for that aircraft

[Ray Hff]

It worked fine long time ago.

 

I also have access to a Windows 10 computer.  It runs fine on the Windows 10.

 

I've since copied the original Windows 10 aircraft onto the Windows 11 and it crashes the same as the Windows 11 version of the aircraft.

 

I thought maybe with all the extra photoreal scenery I have on the Windows 11 computer that it might be a Virtual Memory issue.  I maximized the VM and still no joy. 

 

At this point, I'm just going to throw in the towel on the Milviz 310R.

Acceleration Disk Version

Sorry, I'm stumped! 

[Ray Hff]

I appreciate  your effort.

 

Thank you.

 

PS My first fight simulator was a dot moving across a Vic 20 screen and this is my first stumping.

I discovered that MIlviz having become Blackbird Simulations offers a variety of freebies at:

 

https://blackbirdsims.com/flight/freebies.php

 

Included is a 310R Redux that works in FSX!

[mrzippy]

Download and install it and let us know if it works!

[Ray Hff]

I already did and it does it does.

 

Nice aircraft.

[pomak249]

Careful with some of the Milvis free stuff some marked as FSX will not work in FSX

[Ray Hff]

This one works perfectly in FSX Acceleration version.
