I updated to 11.33 today and also activated uwxp. I now get "Resources\sounds\weather\.wav" when i try to start x-plane.

Question

can you help ? is this a conflict between 11.33 and UWXP ? I'm told to go to the x-plane updater... where do i find that ? i am unable to start x-plane due to this error. all was well with 11.30 and before i activated UWXP.

how to update to 11.33

Answer 1

Hi jkf

I'm not with Laminar Research, just a fellow simmer in the UK.

1. All of the sound .WAV files for weather are in the C:\X-Plane 11\Resources\sounds\weather folder. In my 11.32 version of X-Plane, I have 10 .WAV files covering rain, hail, thunder, wind etc.

Are your files all present and correct as per the following photo?

2. If you have to run the X-Plane Installer app, double click the relevant file in the X-Plane 11 root directory and follow the instructions. You will find the X-Plane Installer app in the C:\X-Plane 11 folder, as per the second photo below.

Hope this helps for now :-)

Regards

Hi Jim

It seems as though some of the sound .WAV files may be corrupt, so if you wish, I can email you the relevant files from my copy of X-Plane 11 to see if that fixes the problem?

Kind regards

Answer 2

Hi Jim

A little hasty in pulling the trigger I feel.

Firstly, it's never a good idea to introduce 2 updates or installations at the same time..
The url you give above is incomplete. there can be no wav file unnamed. ( .wav)
I have no such unnamed file in my copy, simply hail, rain, thunder and wind.
It is probable that UWXP is making this corrupt call. Try removing it and run the sim again.
If you havent re-run xp11 yet, then check the Log.txt in the xp root to see if there are any pointers.
This call is obviously unusual and just needs a little investigation.
I hope you check this out

Hello again

When I go into the installer log I notice the following data...

"D:\Users/James/Desktop/X-Plane 11/Resources/sounds/weather/hail.wav

 sig want=5ac57fa9f60e96e787469dd9a519dd0a

 Sig have=d41d8cd98f00b204e9800998ecf8427e"

This must be the problem.... how do I rectify this issue ?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Thank you

Jim
