P3D v5 HF1 Crash at splash screen

I've uninstalled from one hard drive and installed to another, and now the program crashes on the splash screen; "Prepar3d.exe has stopped working". No other info other than what I see in the windows event viewer logs. I deleted generated files and disabled all add ons but this does not re...

Re: Repair of installation failing

I did. The answer was "I have no idea.. maybe a corrupt P3D installation"

Re: Repair of installation failing

Because, quite obviously... I don't know what I am doing. Is there an answer to be shared, perhaps?

Repair of installation failing

I am trying to troubleshoot an add-on, and have repaired the client. Attempts to repair the main installation are failing; I moved my install files to a new hard drive for space reasons and can't seem to get the installer pointed to the new location. Here is my install log file (truncated because th...

Re: Mapping Applications / SimConnect Not Working

I've monkeyed around enough now, that the Lorby Flashlight program just hangs. ActiveSky still works, though. As does LINDA.

Mapping Applications / SimConnect Not Working

Pulling my hair out. I use Fltplan Go and WingX as EFBs for the sim. Everything was working, now it isn't. It seems SimConnect is working, as ActiveSky, REX, and Lorby's Flashlight all operate. I've been down this road before, and it always seems to boil down to "something" with SimConnect...

Re: Honeycomb Yoke

I’ve had my Honeycomb Yoke for three days now; in conjunction with LINDA I’ve been able to accomplish a great deal. Only issues have been making sure to run YokeInput as admin (if you use it) and watching for pesky control assignment conflicts. I’m very pleased with this yoke and 4.5!

Re: Simconnect not working v4.5

Jorge I posted over on Avsim - desperate for help I am afraid. So I re-directed my 'Documents' folder to be stored on a 2nd internal hard drive; within this folder are the P3D related sub-folders for add-ons and files. After doing this, I was able to duplicate the issue - perhaps a file permissions ...

[RESOLVED] Simconnect not working v4.5

I have lost addons that use Simconnect, such as Active Sky, Fltplan Go, and Chaseplane. None connect to the sim. I do not recall making any changes to the installation lately. So far I have deleted my p3d.cfg file, performed a repair of the client and then the application itself, and then also unins...

Re: V4.3 Black Screen on start of flight

I am having the exact same issue. It persists after a complete uninstall, restart of the system, and re-install of P3D v4.2 followed by v4.3.
