Having the following sceenory error when launching p3d v 5.3

Featured Replies

For my fellow p3d v 5.3 pilots, from blind client Ron Kolesar.

For some weird reason when I go to launch p3d v 5.3. I kep receiving that p3d cannot run without a valid sceenory.

Then I get the aboart option.

Now I just tried to install p3d once again and launched it, and I still have the above error message.

Now, I make sure that it is complete out of my computer before installing the program, even down in the documents folder and also under appdata and from my c drive.

I can install the program, I can plug in my unlock info.

But as soon as I go to launch it from run as administrator, I get the above error message.

Can anyone help me out?

I can be reached at:

[email protected]

I'm on the east coast time zone.

If anyone here in the states wants to try?

ship me a private e-mail and I'll give you my phone number so we can talk.

Many thanks in advance.

Sounds like you have not done a complete job of deleting the generated files when you uninstalled.  I think if you do a search for "P3D delete generated files" you'll find several how-to guides on how to completely remove the stuff left behind when P3D is uninstalled.  One thing I noticed you didn't mention is the P3D folder in C:\ProgramData.

I now that's to your advice and the internet to find the program data folder have P3D finally installed.

One question though, I have my Dassault Falcon 7X GA private aircraft installed.

Where can one find the airlines.cfg file for p3d?

I cannot find it anywhere to update the cfg file.

Many thanks. 

Ron who might be soonly back in the air at long last after all. LOL
