CFS3 won't start anymore

[Priller]

Hi,

I installed a few addon aircraft (from this site) and after selecting one, I had a CTD and now the CTD happens every time I want to start up the sim.

Any help would be appreciated.

Can't say I'd be much help but you said some aircraft, which ones? Did you uninstall them and completely and try again?

With me it's more often the sound file reference.

The quickest way to get the game running again is to text edit the game.xml file.

Change ShowUIWorld="true" to ShowUIWorld="false", and it will ignore the error and start.

Then you can select another aircraft and all will be well again.

Once you've fixed the issue with the offending aircraft, you can set it back to true again.

I had this happen yesterday. I downloaded some AVH aircraft from here but when I went to use them the game crashed.

AvHistory models require the AvHistory weapon and effect packs installed if adding them to a standard CFS3 installation. MAW and ETO already have these as part of the expansions.
