Version
4.36.3 (x64)Win 10 Build

I have an installation of 4.35, still works perfectly fine.
Today I installed 4.36 with the full installer from the official site.
Upon launching (both natively or through the alt launcher), splash screen shows and then poof.Also strange phenomenon, in the Alt Launcher keymapping, everything is empty. There are no controls shown. Just totally blank.

@VikingPingvin very strange crash log callstack that I haven’t seen before.
combined with the weird Alt Launcher behavior … I’d suggest uninstall/reinstall.
pay attention to any antivirus quarantine logs/msgs … it seems like maybe some files are missing or corrupt.

Right, a full reinstall seems to be working now.
Alt Launcher keymaps also seem ok!Well could have thought about a reinstall myself first…
Thanks! -
@VikingPingvin looking at the crash log:
ReadAllAirframeData()
seems something mangled a data file? -
@Tumbler31 that was my guess too. but I don’t understand why this kind of thing keeps happening to people.

Recently a problem was repeated to me for the second time and I decided to search until I found the solution, the question is the following and I put them in context since this thread was created and they are actively debating.
Due to negligence on my part, the partition where the falcon bms 4.36 simulator is installed ran out of space due to the size of the acmi files, it happened that when I clicked FLY to enter the 3d world in the cockpit, the simulator exploded and returned to the desktop, he gave me the task of moving virtual heaven and earth until I found a solution without having to reinstall the simulator from scratch (once again) since this had already happened to me and that solved the problem.
Using my thinking and deep brain after long hours of testing and modifying and installing VCREDIST display drivers and other things, I came to the conclusion that the problem should be in the temporary files because as the partition ran out of space there should be the problem, so run WIN+R, write %temp% to direct me to the temporary folder of the running user and once there delete everything that could, there were files that were not allowed to be deleted because they were being used by other programs, I said OK and finished deleting what he could. After that, I opened the simulator, entered instant action and HUALA, everything was perfect, working normally in all modes as always.
I don’t know what it affects in this case but I will tell you about my experience.
GREETINGS from the CARIBBEAN.
