Post subject:  PF3 Demo FPP / runtime error

Hello,

I just dowloaded the demo version but was unable to load any flight plan so far (saved from simbrief).
I'm still getting the FPP error then the Run-time error '9' subscript out of range.

I tried to uninstall/reinstall, run directx runtimes, change language to english uk...

Logs folder and flight plan have been attached.

thank you,

It looks like you've had problems rebuilding the PF3 database. Have you run MakeRwys ?

Yes, I ran version 5.127.

There is a possible issue for those using non UK English Windows Regional Settings which can cause (a) PF3 to supposedly crash and/or (b) being unable to load a flight plan, resulting in an invalid string error in the FPP log.

Required change:

Open 'Windows Settings'

Select 'Time & Language'

Select 'Language' in the left column

Select 'Administrative language settings' from the right-hand column

From the popup display (under 'Language for non-Unicode programs') select 'Change System Locale'

Unselect 'Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support' if selected

Then select 'English UK' for the 'Current System Locale'

Select 'OK' to confirm then exit Windows settings.

You 'may' have to restart Windows at this stage.

Please retry PF3 and let us know how you get on

Hi,

Thank you for the feedback. I have actually already changed the administrative setting following your recommendations but I kept my regional setting in french...
Changing both of them fixed the error.

I will be able to try the demo later on today :)

Thank you for your help,
