November 12, 20178 yr After seeing the latest beta video, Chaseplane is really looking good. Thing is, I'd like to also have EZDok sometimes. I think I read somewhere that Chaseplane uninstalls EZDok. If it does, is it easy to 'reinstall' it and 'uninstall' it again so I can switch between the two?

November 12, 20178 yr I don't think CP uninstalls EZ, but realise that two camera addons will not like each other, like two virus scanners is not working eather. I can only speak for myself, but after buying and trying CP, EZ was a nogo for my (i had EZ before i had CP). I'm sure once you use CP, you won't go back again, especialy with the new feathers coming on. What feature you like with EZ that CP won't have? Regards, William Vrielynck

But, it seems like if I wasn't running EZDok...e.g. removed it from EXE.XML that would be enough to keep it from conflicting? Or is there something more? I mean, @headley might be right, that I'd switch over entirely...*shrugs*...maybe. Otherwise, is there a way to just install Chaseplane into 4.1 and leave EZDok on my 3.4 setup?

November 12, 20178 yr Commercial Member We are both injecting data into specific positions the cameras.cfg file. They both cannot inject that data at the same time. Keven Menard Technical Director, //42.

So, if I have P3D3.4 and P3D4.1 installed, Chaseplane writes to both even though I only install it to 4.1? P3D4.1 has its own camera.cfg.

November 12, 20178 yr Commercial Member It will inject in every cameras.cfg file Keven Menard Technical Director, //42.
November 12, 20178 yr Author Maybe I can ask this way... Can you tell me what files Chaseplane writes to? I'll back them up. Gregg Seipp "A good landing is when you can walk away from the airplane. A great landing is when you can reuse it." i9 64GB RAM, GTX-5090
November 13, 20178 yr Commercial Member Cameras.cfg and exe.xml (if applicable) in the Appdata folder. It also removes hotkeys in every aircraft.cfg file if present and conflicting but that should prevent other camera add ons from working. Keven Menard Technical Director, //42.

November 30, 20178 yr Just to clarify here, if I disable the Ezdok entry in exe.xml is that enough for Chaseplane to have P3d to itself? Very reluctant to have Ezdok completely uninstalled at this stage - still too many unknowns about the comparative merits of each product. Thanks.

November 30, 20178 yr Commercial Member No, ChasePlane still needs to modify the files listed above. If you want to reinstall EzDok, run their config.exe Keven Menard Technical Director, //42.
December 1, 20178 yr I use both CP and EZDok. What I did is install CP and backup the relevant files. Then install EZDok and backup the relevant files. Then made a cmd file to switch to whatever camera system I want to use. It just copies the backup files to the appdata folder. Works fine for me.

Could you paste your cmd file here? Gregg Seipp "A good landing is when you can walk away from the airplane. A great landing is when you can reuse it." i9 64GB RAM, GTX-5090
