Jonathan Fong Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I just installed ReShade v3.0.5 and have been experiencing crashes with FSLSpotlights installed. When Spotlights is uninstalled, ReShade works fine; when it is, FSX crashes on the splash screen and disappears from the task bar before getting to the selection menu. Please help. The version of Spotlights I am trying to install is v1.0.0.25. I am using DX10 with v3.1 of Steve's Fixer. Quote Link to comment
Lefteris Kalamaras Posted November 20, 2016 Share Posted November 20, 2016 I will try to reproduce the problem on FSX Steam... it was working fine when I tried it. Quote Link to comment
Jonathan Fong Posted November 21, 2016 Author Share Posted November 21, 2016 Okay, I uninstalled ReShade and installed SweetFX instead. Now FSX starts fine, but I get a 'FSLSpotlights did not initialize correctly' warning just before getting to the menu screen. Any suggestions? Quote Link to comment
Lefteris Kalamaras Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Do me a favor, uninstall FSLSpotlights completely, then reboot, then install v1.0.0.25. See if that works and let me know. Quote Link to comment

Lefteris Kalamaras Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Is the FSLService running? Quote Link to comment

Lefteris Kalamaras Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 How long does it take before your simulator comes up? Do you have any add-ons that cause a long delay (i.e. Ultimate Traffic, etc)? Quote Link to comment

Do you have any add-ons that cause a long delay (i.e. Ultimate Traffic, etc)? I have the IVAO MTL installed, but I've deactivated its entry in my fsx.cfg file and the error still occurs. Without the IVAO MTL, FSX loads in 39 seconds (well, it takes about that long to get to the error screen before it CTDs). As a side note, the sim loads fine if SweetFX is totally disabled (I remove the dxgi.dll and d3d9.dll files). Quote Link to comment
Jonathan Fong Posted November 23, 2016 Author Share Posted November 23, 2016 @Lefteris Kalamaras Any ideas? I can post my dxgi.dll file if you wish. I'm running SweetFX 1.5.1 as it's the only version that I can get running with FSX (other issues unrelated with Spotlights arise when I use Reshade/SweetFX v2.0). Quote Link to comment
Lefteris Kalamaras Posted November 23, 2016 Share Posted November 23, 2016 It's not the dxgi.dll that I need, but rather to figure out why ReShade 3.0.5 isn't working on your end - that's the one that's latest and the one we should strive to get working. Quote Link to comment
