P3d Wont start up!!!!

Featured Replies

Question,

I try and start up P3D v4.3 and it gets stuck at the loading page where it says P3D ... anyone know how to fix this beacuse i want to fly😁

Chances are it will be some kind of issue with the config files. You could try throwing away the P3D config file (back it up somewhere just in case). P3D will then rebuild the config file when you start it up and that may solve the issue.

Another option would be to try using the 'Delete Generated Files' utility in the P3D folder (just double click on it), although bear in mind that if you use that, it will rewrite many of your options and such and will basically 'reset' the sim, so you might find yourself having to reinstall add-ons, but using this will usually get the thing going if it has an issue.

Another thing you can try is to download and install Lorby-SI's AddonOrganizer_P3D_V4, which is free. Using that will often sort out conflicts which can prevent P3D from cranking up.

Check out my youtube flight sim videos: Here

I would first download "Scenery Config Editor" and use it to turn off any recently added scenery.  You most likely have some scenery that isn't playing well.  Be careful to only use scenery that is specified for P3Dv4.  Sometime it is advertised as for "P3Dv3 and up" which is not necessarily P3Dv4.

Scenery Config Editor

Just point it to your P3Dv4 in the settings. When it comes up it may even show some conflicting scenery.  Even if it don't, turn off any scenery that you might have added.  Save and try to start the sim.

This works the same way. Just turn off any added scenery and try to start the sim.  If it starts, then just turn on the added scenery one at a time.

Remove the Prepar3D generated folders that is generated during the program execution 

These folders and files will generate again when Prepar3D is launched next

Navigate to your core Prepar3D v4 folder, Scroll down a bit, Double left Click on the file Delete Generated Files, a small black window will appear and then disappear again, this is normal 

Then launch Prepar3D and test 

Let us know how you get on
