Static view not working

[miamga 1]

When I scan my prepar3D it recognizes all the spots and gates, but when I select a static view it doesn't work and just spawn somewhere inthe sky, please help me

Hi miamga, 

When you select the static view, are you using the chaseplane interface, or are you right clicking in P3D and choosing the "Static" view that way?

I have experienced problems before where using the latter method can spawn you randomly in the air, so it's best to bind a key or use the interface to access the static view.

 

Hope this helps

Doesn't work for me :( Still spawns me in the sky.

Restart the simulator and try again
Not working? Reinstall ChasePlane

Even worse than before Now I can't even use the camera at all :(

1. Remove the cameras.cfg file located in %appdata%\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3
2. Launch P3D to regenerate it
3. Close P3D
4. Launch ChasePlane to fix the file
5. Launch P3D

Keven, I followed your exact checklist and now my P3D won't even start. Just crashes to the desk top every time. Even uninstalled chase plane, re-installed P3D and same. What happened!?

Have you tried renaming the Prepar3D v3 folder in %appdata%\Lockheed Martin so P3D can regenerate it?
