May 30, 20179 yr Did u try unplugging all your USB devices? As I said, for me the Razer Orbweaver Hardware caused this issue. Try to unplug everything and then only replug your mouse and test.
May 30, 20179 yr Then best thing to do is delete the P3D.cfg located in C:\Users\(YourUserName)\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3Dv4. When you restart P3D, it will rebuild to the default settings. The p3d.cfg is in a hidden folder. See the AVSIM CTD Guide on how to unhide the folder.

May 30, 20179 yr Apparently setting direct input in p3d control options other, seems to fix the issue for now.

May 30, 20179 yr Yep, if try this if you can't get in the options (cause P3D still doesn't start). Edit your Prepar3D.cfg, and modify this (change it or add this lines / section if it does not exist) [CONTROLS] EnableDirectInput=True

Still crashes and the floder is not hidden for me
May 30, 20179 yr The folder is not hidden because you had it unhidden previously with another program. Jim Young | AVSIM Online! - Simming's Premier Resource!

May 30, 20179 yr Did you even try the USB / DirectInput thing? It seems, theres more hardware causing the crashing / not starting and this fixes it temporarily..

May 30, 20179 yr This fixes it. Add the following to your P3D.cfg file under the Controls section. [CONTROLS] EnableDirectInput=True Mark CYYZ

May 31, 20179 yr 3 hours ago, Cubcake said: cant get into the game so I cant turn off the AI settings You can edit your Prepar3D.cfg file to turn off the AI. Look for the section; [TrafficManager] AirlineDensity=20 GADensity=13 FreewayDensity=20 ShipsAndFerriesDensity=20 LeisureBoatsDensity=20 Set the density to 0 for all of the types of traffic. You could also disable one type of traffic at a time to narrow down a potential culprit. Also, if you may have a corrupt traffic file in the simulator, go to the Prepar3D/Scenery/World/scenery folder and rename any/all traffic files to hide them from the simulator. Ie; trafficAircraft.bgl to trafficAircraft_bgl.OFF. Good luck
