Yes, your X3:FL CTDs are with d3dx9_37.dll which is a part of (or needed by) your legacy DirectX installation. It is looking for it here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\x3 terran conflict\d3dx9_37.dll so check if it is there and maybe run the Steam verification tool for each of X3:TC, X3:AP and X3:FL in that order to cover all eventualities.

If that does not help then I would next use the sfc /scannow function to check for OS issues. Microsoft link.

I did as you say and nothing changed, d3dx9 dll file on place, scannow says there is no issues.

That is a shame. I see one other issue with X3:AP in your DxDiag with MSACM32.DLL which is the Microsoft ACM Audio Filter. That sort of issue should also have been addressed by scannow, so I am out of ideas. Sorry.

I looked up that issue and most threads point back to a d3d9.dll issue. These all tend to point to your current legacy DirectX setup (which uses files across the OS and the game installation) not suiting the rather elderly X3 game engine. (I say legacy because the X3 games use DirectX 9c, and not newer versions such DirectX 11, 12 nor indeed OpenAL.)

An X3:TC and X3:AP (and X3:FL) clean reinstall from Steam might refresh all their supporting files that assist DirectX too. It does seem rather a lot of work to do though.

Попробуй переустановить DX отсюда.
Try reinstalling DX from here.

I'm not sure that an OS DX reinstall would refresh the DX files installed with the X3 games, and those are the ones the OS is looking for and trying to use when the CTDs happen (according to the Windows Error Reports).

You could try backing up the DX .dll files in the X3 games folder, moving or renaming the originals, and then copying those named files from the OS DX dll folder into the game folder. If it doesn't help, or makes things worse, then just remove the copied ones and put or name the originals back again.

I have no idea of the chances of this helping but at least it is something to try.
