Stuck on splash screen

Recommended Posts

Hi... I recently completed a flight from KSFO-KDFW.  When finished, I shut down P3d.  I was looking to see if PSP was installed and noticed there was an update to Open LC or Base that I needed to install.  I went ahead and did the install/update.  When I did that, I tried to load P3d and the sim just hangs in the black start screen.  I don't get a CTD or any error message.  It just sits there and never gets me to the menu screen.  I can only think the update is what is causing the issue.  Can someone point me in the right direction to fix?  I'd hate to have to do an uninstall/install because I have so many add ons in there.

Delete your prepar3d.cfg file and let sim recreate new one.

Nope.  Unfortunately that didn't do the trick.

This could be the issue.  I don't see the scenery.cfg file in my P3d folder......

Look in programdata\lockheedmartin\prepar3d folder.

Awesome. Somehow it must have become corrupted. It has happened to me before.

Worked here after unistalling Turbulent Products to install same products from ORBX(as they merged).

After that, sim stayed stuck on splash screen.     Deleting the file(programdata\lockheedmartin\prepar3dv4\Scenery.cfg) worked here, thanks...
