Fatal Error When Opening Prepar3d

I've just finished installing all my FSX add ons to p3d and now I get a fatal error when opening P3D. I have the following addons:

PMDG MD-11, NGX, 747X

Aerosoft Anchorage, Approaching Innsbruck, Gibraltar, Madeira, Mega Airport Amsterdam, Mega Airport London Heathrow

Carenado C172, C208

Devinci KSAN

Flight Beam KSFO

Imagine Sim KSJC

Level-D 767

FS Dream Team GSX, KDFW, KJFK, KLAS, KLAX, KORD, PHNL, Zurich

FS2Crew 737NGX, PMDG 747

Captain Sim 757, C-130

Just Flight World Airports 3

Latin VFR Miami

Leonardo Mad Dog MD-80

Mega Scenery Las Vegas, Reno, Oahu

Navigraph Airac Updates

Zinertec Night Environment X

Overland Incheon X

REX+Overdrive

FSX HQ Thunder Soundpack

Wilco 737 Evolution, Airbus Vol 1+2, Embaer Regional Jets, Avanti II

Does anyone know of any compatibility problems for P3D with these addons?

'Fraid I have no immediate solution amongst that soup of add-ons. Did you not run P3D in-between each install? If so then surely the last is add-on installed is likely to be the best place to start with fault finding.

 

My observations on the soup is that Hong Kong and Las Vegas add-ons are no longer required as P3D comes natively with enhanced scenery for these locations. I too installed them on my first run and found no adverse effects - as I suspect they are the same packages now bundled into P3D. But also found on my second run that everything was dandy in those locations without having to install them.

 

Furthermore were you really able to install into P3D with the Aerosoft installer? I recall all original Aerosoft sceneries required a manual cutn'paste from several locations. I suspect it is this series of actions across multiple add-ons in your soup that is causing your woes.

 

My limited experience would be to re-install starting from scratch going much slower to ensure stability between installations to ensure no catastropic failures along the way. Though inhindsight you probably have already deduced this.

Aerosoft PMDG REX Mad Dog FlyTampa and FSDT all installed and worked 100% so I've been checking the rest through out the day. I was just wondering if anyone here had any problems so I would know which one to jump to first. Aerosoft installers you just have to point to the P3D file.

On the Aerosoft installation check out this thread from Aerosoft themselves on the installers failure to work with P3D along with their VistaMare.

 

http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/53924-prepar3d-and-aerosoft-products/

 

The thread does go onto explain how to manually port them in which will then work with limitations on VistaMare and AES.

 

In my case an installer install pointed at P3D for Gibraltar X appeared to install correctly without actually installing the revised details for The Rock and the runway.

Hello,

 

I think the Flight Beam scenery KSFO is not P3D compatible, because it uses the Addon Manager known from FSDreamTeam sceneries. All FSDT sceneries are compatible with P3D but Flight Beam's KSFO doesn't use a modified Addon Manager for using with P3D up to this time.

Hello;

 

Flightbeam KSFO works,according to the posts in this forum,I can't remember what they did,but said they had it working,read through the compatability posts.

I'm glad to find this discussion. I am slowly adding aircraft and scenery to my newly installed P3D. So far I have had a couple of fatal errors and at least 2x out of memory crashes I'm keeping FSX at the ready until I iron out these disappointments. I hope to not have issues with Flightbeam KSFO or the FSDT airports.

I've installed KSFO yesterday and I think you are right - it works fine for me, too.
