January 13, 201412 yr Does P3D crash when you try to LOAD/SAVE from the menu? Do you have World of AI packages installed? Mine did and after hours of investigation and countless crashes I have traced the problem back to 3 WoAI packages which have missing entries in the aircraft.cfg file. All of the packages use the WoA_HTAI_DHC6 model and are: Air Iceland Air Greenland TMK Air Commuter In the aircraft.cfg file the relevant [fltsim.n] section has a missing texture assignment. Simply adding the =(texture folder name here) will sort the problem. Be sure to only add the equals folder name eg. =FNA-Air Iceland. Do not add the texture. prefix. Strangely this missing entry only happens to the first installation of the aforementioned packages, subsequent airlines installed that use this aircraft seem to be OK with the texture assignment not blank. So if you aren't confident about editing files simply delete all/any of the affected packages and reinstall providing you already have an airline package installed which uses that aircraft type, currently: Cayman Airways Ethiopian Airlines Isle of Scilly Skybus Air Madagascar Nature Air Winair Maybe you could mention this to Peter at WoAI. For me, I'm just glad I've no more crashes when I try to load or save flights. Why a missing texture entry would cause a total program crash is anybody's guess. I hope this helps some poor folks out there who are experiencing this problem. BTW there are a couple of other packages with texture issues: Lion Sevenair(Tuninter) I just didn't bother installing them, it's a WoAI issue. ... my head hurts!
April 13, 201412 yr Thank you Mike, I have been trying to find out why I could not save flights for months! I had indeed this missing entry in the Iceland Air package. Now it works as it should Thank you for sharing, Regards Michael
