P3D v4.3 black screen when loading

Recommended Posts

Hello everyone!

Yesterday when I started my P3D v4.3 and I could'nt see the aircrafts thumbnails, instead I only saw a black window, and when I clicked "load scenario" it just stays in a constant black screen. Although I can still hear audio, and click ESC and access the menu.

Thx a lot m8's!

This is a very common problem with 4.3 for some reason. 

You can try deleting the shader cache files  and see if that helps. Wait about 5 - 10 minutes after the black screen to see if it eventually shows again.

When you upgraded to V4.3, did you install only the Client component?

This very well may be the problem.

Try updating the Content component as well and see if that resolves things.
