Hy Guys,

 

after two weeks of hard testing, i go this way here into this forum to find help of a bad problem. I have no ideas what i can do to solve my problem. So thats why i am here.

I try to use sweetfx with my FSX. I found a youtube video with a very good installation guide. I made all the steps like in this video. But after running FSX with enabled SweetFX, i got a CTD.

Here are some details.

1. My System:

I have a MSI GT72 2QD Dominator Notebook
Intel Core i7 4710HQ @ 2.5 - 3.5 Ghz Haswell
8 GB DDR3 1600Mhz
Nvidia GTX970M 6144MB GDDR5
Windows 8.1 Pro full updated also the drivers.

2. My Flight Simulator
Flight Simulator X inkl Acc. completly fresh with no addons.
SweetFX1.5.1 wtih Sublime Enviroment Xtreme Preset

3. The Installation guide i used.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ozn9NtRFLZc


As i wrode i did it all step by step. I started flightfx with administratior permissions and the fsx.exe too.
The FSX startscreen pop up and then i got a CTD with a failure warning.

If i start FSX with disabled modifications, it will work. I really dont know what i can do next to solve my problem :( so i hope to find some help here.

Sry for my bad english.  I hope you can understand me well.

Thanks a lot guys

The api.dll was the module that was at fault. The api.dll is used to run fsx and indicates you had an out-of-memory (OOM) crash. See the AVSIM CTD Guide and looke for api.dll under probable/known solutions to crashes.

 

Best regards,

Hy Firehawk,

 

thanks a lot for your reply. I downloaded your both PDF files and tried the solutions.
But the CTD is not fixed. I got the same error as described before.

I also tried a fixed api.dll. FSX starts up with disabled FlightFX and crashes with enabled.

Maybe some other ideas?

 

Could this be a Problem with Windows 8.1 x64?

Thanks again
