Re: V6 update to 6.0.28 crash

To: Martyson:

I took your suggestion about ignoring the "Installer Not Responding" and just let it roll. This worked after about 30 minutes. I am now updated to 28 and the sim is working fine. Thank you very much for your help.

Re: V6 update to 6.0.28 crash

I've tried three times to run the update from 27 to 28 and it always crashes. I have everything default and running as admin. All I see is my hard drive lite running forever and never stopping with the "Not responding" message hung. I have to terminate from the task manager. Please help. T...

Re: Helicopter Autopilot issues

Is there a newer version of the helicopter autopilot now that P3DV4.4 has been released? The one I currently have running is the one released for P3DV4.2 (the first one I assume).

Re: Dual Licenses for P3DV4.2

Thank you for the reply. However, I failed to make myself clear. Each SSD will be a complete operating system unto itself. Each will have a different instance of Windows 10 on it. Both SSDs are on the same machine but use completely separate operating systems. I only plug in one at a time to work on...

[RESOLVED] Dual Licenses for P3DV4.2

I have version 4.1 installed on one SSD. I would like to install 4.2 on another SSD on the same machine since there is no more room. Do I have have to purchase another license to run both 4.1 and 4.2 on the same machine but only one at a time by switching SSDs? Both SSDs are running Windows 10 but o...

Helicopter Sling Operations

Whenever I hook up to a ground object with the sling in P3D V2 or V3 as soon as I start the liftoff to haul the object, the object goes into an uncontrollable super spin and flings off into the distance where it crashes. I have tried different objects to haul but no matter what the object is, as soo...

<t>Yes. I completely uninstalled V2.4 and then deleted any remaining folders or indications. I then did a clean install of V2.5. When I started up, there were warnings about the addon scenery missing file 125 but I don't know what that means. I never had any addon scenery in v2.4. I unchecked the ad...

<t>After installing V2.5, I am having bizarre scenery behavior like I have never seen before. I would post a typical screenshot but I don't know how to get it into this forum. Specifically I have seen houses floating in the air, ghost buildings appearing out of nowhere, landscapes devoid of anything...

What does this mean?:"SCENERY.CFG file error. Local scenery directory(Addon Scenery\SCENERY)in scenery Area.125 not found. Click OK to continue."
Just did a clean install and this comes up every time I start up. Thanks.

<t>After some troubleshooting, I found out that it was not the V2.2 program causing this, it was Win 8.1.1 Pro 64 bit which is driving me crazy. Half the time when I start up, the controller is disabled and the other half not. Cannot figure this out but this forum is probably not the place to discus...

<t>I updated my V2.1 to V2.2 and my CH controller stopped working. When I go into the calibrate section which drops out to the OS, everything works, but when I go back to 2.2, nothing works. Is there a fix for this? Can't use the program without the controller working. Any help would be appreciated....
