Tracking Down CTD Issue - Question / help please
« on: December 30, 2018, 05:52:06 pm »
I'm trying to track down the cause of some CTDs i'm getting in P3d 4.4. I'm using Process monitor to log events while P3d is running. I found some odd messages related to FSDT that repeat and thought I should ask why this is happening:

see the attached. thanks

Those message are not a problem, at all. They are just the way the simulator searches for textures and other files, first by checking a .CAB file, then a .BMP file, then a .DDS file, etc. It's the normal fallback process working normally.

Yes, it's not probably the most efficient way, considering almost every addon out there comes with .DDS textures, which are searched last, so that would result in many failed searches, but it's NOT a problem or an indication of a problem.
