P3D v3.4 Randomly not loading modules (FSUIPC.dll, PMDG dlls, EZCA, ...)

[JanN 0]

 

 

 

 

Hello guys,

 

P3D is just not loading any of the modules from either dll.xml or exe.xml. PMDG and FSL Cockpits are inop without any gauges, I cannot open FSUIPC, EZCA is not working, GSX and Couatl are not working and half of the entries in the Add-Ons-Menu are missing. It is coming up randomly. Sometimes P3D loads everything well on the first try, sometimes it doesn't even after the 10th attempt. I suspect that it has to do with installing FSX:SE in parallel to P3D a couple of weeks ago but I don't have any solid evidence on this. FSX:SE is uninstalled now with any traces removed (incl. registry).

 

On top of that, I am still getting a ntdll.dll crash on exit of P3D (right at the end when unloading from memory).

 

Prepar3D v3.4.9 on Windows 10, Client and Content v3.4.9, everything else v3.0

 

Add-Ons: Ultimate Realism Shader Mod v0.9 (PTA-Tool & ReShade), Estonian Migration Tool, AS16 + ASCA, REX4 TD, PMDG NGX + 777, FSL Concorde v1.36 + Concorde Performance System (CPS), A2A Stratocruiser + B-17 + Commanche, Orbx FTX Global, Vector, OLC and airports, FlyTampa, Aerosoft, IVAO IvAp.

 

What I already tried:

 

Reinstalling SimConnect (all 4), Removing old FSX:SE-Entries from the Registry, Updating P3D Content from v3.3 to 3.4, Deactivating and unistalling Sophos Anti-virus, Deactivating Windows Defender, Deactivating UAC, taking out both dll.xmls and both exe.xmls, rebuilding Prepar3D.cfg, scenery.cfg.  It still happens when I only have FSUIPC in the dll.xml and everything else default. Seems like something is interfering from outside but I cannot say what it is.

 

This is driving me mad...
