April 20, 20197 yr I must have some how updated Chaseplane to P3Dv4.5 version...but i still only have P3Dv4.4. As chase plan not too happy with this move, how do i roll back the update to .37 until such times I update P3Dv4 to v4.5? Geoff Bryce
April 20, 20197 yr Commercial Member What do you mean by "chase plan not too happy with this move"? CP should work with 4.4 without issues even after a reinstall of the sim... Keven Menard Technical Director, //42.
April 20, 20197 yr Author Hi Keven, When I first booted up P3D and loaded an a/c, chaseplane activated. It brought up the message that a new version was released, i ignored this for a bit and chase plane worked as usual. Then for some reason, I must have ticked the message, thinking...go away...It did, but I must have told it to update(I hate this...wish it would "offer" to update or remain at the present version) then when i went back and tried to access my cameras, all internal camera selections would not move off my last selection(FMC). The external cameras worked ok? I did wonder if for some reason, it wanted me to rebuild all new internal camera views, though, did not try this. Also, I noticed I was using views I set up for the QW 787-8 in the 787-9, and wondered later if that had upset chaseplane at all. So, I thought the easiest solution was to roll back to my previous P3Dv4.4 version while resolving this issue. I shut the whole system down for 30 minutes and when I restarted Chaseplane, all was well again with version...1.0.38. Not sure why, as I did nothing else!! Computers....

April 22, 20197 yr Commercial Member Did you install the client only or the whole sim? Keven Menard Technical Director, //42.
April 22, 20197 yr Author 1 hour ago, Keven Menard said: Did you install the client only or the whole sim? Hi Keven, I updated P3Dv4 to v4.4 via client only. Thinking about all these P3D updates, I looked at my programs and see: Prepar3D v4 Academic 4.0.23.21468, Prepar3D v4 Academic Client 4.4.16.27077, Prepar3D v4 Academic Content 4.3.29.25520, Prepar3D v4 Academic Scenery 4.0.23.21468. Makes me wonder sometimes when I eventually update to v4.5, if I should install all updated modules, as this mix of versions must have some effect on P3D? Because of the installed addons, I am loathe to upset the install too much for fear of having to reinstall every addon. A change I have just noticed is the lost ability to use the + and - key to zoom in. The screen just flicks a bit...Once, when say in Tower view, if I clicked the + i would zoom in etc?

April 25, 20197 yr I'm having the same issue. I use a G13 for all my chase plane views and with the update to 4.4 (client only) none of my bound keys are working anymore. Chase plane doesn't even recognize a button push when trying to assign a view to a specific button. Key presses still work on the keyboard but not on my G13.
April 26, 20197 yr Author Hi Nathan, I ended up getting the Zoom to work, but only by mapping two buttons on my Extreme 3D Pro joystic. The + or - no longer has any zoom effect since this P3D and or the CP update. Because of issues with addon updates required to sync with P3D updates, I no longer dive in with P3D updates and see what happens. I think addon updates should be flagged as "needed for latest P3Dv4.? update only" and then user can decide if and when to install the update. Edited April 26, 20197 yr by por930 Geoff Bryce
