Hi all,

I'm very happy to see how lively and supportive this community is! I just received my new Logitech X-52 PRO HOTAS and I want to break it in with some good ol' XWAU.

Unfortunately, I can't get missions to load, but skirmishes do. I've largely been trying to just get XWAUCP to work, sometimes including the Hooks, to see if they were the issue or not.

I have installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled the game, mods, and games and mods several times tonight to no avail. I've also dug through similar threads, but no dice.

Here is my latest crash report -- they are all the same:
Faulting application name: XwingAlliance.exe, version: 2.0.0.2, time stamp: 0x3765a9b7
Faulting module name: KERNELBASE.dll, version: 10.0.18362.815, time stamp: 0x67005c2a
Exception code: 0xe06d7363
Fault offset: 0x00114402
Faulting process id: 0x57b4
Faulting application start time: 0x01d649cb7be61d25
Faulting application path: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Star Wars X-Wing Alliance\XwingAlliance.exe
Faulting module path: C:\Windows\System32\KERNELBASE.dll
Report Id: 8e233f0d-7778-4982-8ed4-76a70a5973b3
Faulting package full name:
Faulting package-relative application ID:
Any help is much appreciated! I'd like to get Blue Max's effects working, as well as SteamVR, but those will have to come after. Cheers!

Hello,
You can try to apply the "[Recommended] set LARGEADDRESSAWARE flag" patch with XwaExePatcher.

Hi Jeremy, and sorry, I should have clarified that I already found and tried this patch. Can confirm LARGEADDRESSAWARE flag is still active on the exe.

To add a few more details, I can load a skirmish okay, but firing countermeasures (or at least pressing C) crashes the game. There are also no laser visuals.


EDIT: I believe the KERNELBASE.dll error only appears when I have installed the Container Pack, and/or the Hooks. If I run the game with only XWACP and the patched .exe, I get this:

Just checking in to say that I finally got it fixed! There were two factors at play.

1. I had an antivirus flagging the new .exe and was causing issues. This was probably the main culprit the entire time.

2. I also tried using the XWAU uninstaller, rather than simply deleting the game directory.


Very thankful to have it working entirely, and in VR no less! I'm hoping to improve the performance in some way, but as it stands, I'm in!
