Not connecting to Sim

[stratfordman10 0]

I have just purchased Chaseplane to use in my P3D V4 sim.

 

I have gone into Preferences and then General and the only Auto Launch button that comes alive is with FSX,the other 4 buttons including P3D V4 do not respond and remain greyed out and therefore I cannot connect to the Sim.

 

Would appreciate any help please.

 

I am using the 0.390 Beta Exp. version.

 

Many thanks.

Hi Michael,

Go in VFXCentral > Preferences > Registry Editor and check if the paths to your sim are correct.

Hi Keven,

 

Many thanks for your reply.

 

I have gone into VFX Central which is in my Programm Files (86)/OLdProp Solutions/VFX Central folder but I do not see any Preferences>Registry Editor path in there.

 

Further help would be appreciated.

Hi again,

 

Sorry for my ignorance.

 

I have now opened VFX Central>Preferences>Registry Editor and it shows my valid sim as being FSX and P3D V4 but as far as P3D V4 is concerned it shows my sim path as being C\ where it should show C\Prepar3D v4\.

FSUIPC is ticked.

 

I am therefore wondering how to correct this path in the Registry Editor as I guess that this is the reason that I cannot launch in the sim.

Use the 3 dots next to the path to set it

Hi Keven,

I have just gone into the Registry Editor and P3D v4 is ticked along with FSUIPC and then when I click on the 3 dots I then go to my P3D v4 folder click on it and yet the path in the Registry Editor still shows C\ rather than C\P3D v4.

 

Further help would be appreciated.

A further update.

 

I finally enabled Chaseplane to work in the Sim and set up my camera positions and binded them to certain keys.

 

I then closed down my sim and when I opened up again Chaseplane did not connect and therefore could not use the cameras.

 

Most strange!

 

Further observations would be most welcome.

Another update

 

I go into the Sim middle click the mouse button click on 'Open Chaseplane' but the main menu light is still red and not green even though the middle mouse button works and gives me the various options.

 

Any help would be appreciated.

Can you generate a Report in ChasePlane > Preferences and send the report to us via email?
