    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

G3D.dll question

Recently, I've been attempting to narrow down what might be causing random CTD with one of my aircraft.

I've been taking numerous flights and monitoring the FSUIPC log, and keep seeing the following, repeated message:

*** G3D bad pointer trapped and crash prevented ***
Click to expand...

From what I've read elsewhere the message can be generated by either a terrain or aircraft texture conflicting with the G3D.dll in FSXA.

I do not get the error message with other aircraft, just this particular one which implies its not a terrain issue.

Is anyone familiar with this or have experience this issue?

Thanks in advance.
 
Well, I've made some progress but am still looking for answers.

I updated my FSUIPC install and after 3 flights with the aircraft I've only encountered one CTD after exiting my flight. So far, so good.

I just tried those [scenery] entries and noted a couple missing texture files, but no data as to what might be causing the ***G3D bad pointer..." message I'm getting in the FSUIPC log with this specific aircraft.

I have been checking the FSUIPC log after all my flights now with different aircraft and I'm only getting the message with this specific aircraft. I'm pretty certain its not scenery generated.

Still baffled.. :dizzy:
