Hi everyone,

Im absolutely desperated,I couldnt make the last version run without black screen in the start up menu for more than 10 days,even after installing the latest P3D V5.2 H.F 1 following all kind of tips and recommendations during the installation:( Hereto attached Nick Cooper from Orbx)

Please, I would appreciate any kind of suggestion,Im stucked without hope in terms of solving the black screen, If I run the sim in default scenery with deffault plane, all is black and I can gear the sound of the engines, thats all.

Before I had 5.1 and no issues at all, even I tried to install legacy client of 5.1 but now it seems to be corrupted and I have same result.

For me, 5.2 and H.F1 are not properly developed and P3D developers must take the issues seriously because these problems are bothering most of P3D users ,that in my case, Im about to give up with P3D and jump finally to MSFS 2020 in order to avoid every now and again crashes, lack o performance with most o the addons, new releases not compatible with most commom specs, lack of support from P3D(not a single reply in this post)...etc...etc...etc

Thanks in advance

Enrique

You mentioned:
“Before I had 5.1 and no issues at all, even I tried to install legacy client of 5.1 but now it seems to be corrupted and I have same result.”

Is v5.1 Client your current setup?

What are your system specs?

Enrique,

With this CPU:

Intel Core i7 6700HQ @ 2.60GHz

you are way below the minimum system requirements for v. 5.

Thanks for your answer, I am aware of my system limitation, but I was running 5.1 without major isues, just medium settings for avoiding frames drop
My problem started with 5.2

Hi everyone,

I never gave up with P3D 5.2 and now with 5.3......I am still having issues with the black screen on the menu to select the plane.. and in game.. I can hear the sound in the background but al black.......but..by chance..... I turned off the AA in P3D settings(none) and the miracle happened, th black screen in game dissapeared, and I am trying to compensate the lack of AA with Nvidia profile settings.However, the black screen in main menu is still there......so ...a step closer to the final solution..but I do need more help from you guys.

And for avoiding repetition of topics..yes....Im running P3D in laptop what is not the best way to get a good performance, and my system specs are really way below the minimum requirements...but....please, lets focus in a solution based on actual limitations.

Thanks

Enrique
