March 10, 20242 yr I am sure there is some knowledgeable person out there who has come across this before. Chase plane has worked for me for 3 years with only minor problems. Five days ago I started my P3Dv5.4 and loaded the PMDG 747along with all the usual (AS, STB,RC4, GMap) but the preset keys for views did not work. I have had this before and a restart of AS cures it. This time, nothing. I then noticed that the Red/Green indicator was red, meaning no connection, and 2 areas of the menu were greyed out. I had made no changes to my PC. I did all the usual: rebooted PC, restarted P3D, nothing fixed it. Eventually, I raised a ticket, and got prompt help. I did all the suggested things, including excluding files from virus scanners, ensuring programs ran with Admin privileges, still nothing In desperation, I re-installed CP several times and have now reverted Windows to a version that worked a month ago, just in case a rogue update had changed something, and finally I re-installed P3D (Content scenery and Client, in the correct order!) , nothing has corrected the problem. CP support says their code cannot have changed and it is most probably something in my PC that is blocking/interfering. CP is just not connecting to P3D at all. (On the splash screen it says "Connect to P3D to use Chase plane). I don't know what else to do, can anyone help? Ian🙏 Intel i7 6700K @4.3. 32gb Gskill 3200 RAM.

March 11, 20242 yr I had a problem a little while ago having not touched the sim for 6+ months where nothing in Chaseplane worked. If I remember rightly I had something weird going on with simultaneous versions of Chaseplane installed on my PC, at least one of which was completely bricked and wouldn't connect to P3D. It's still a little buggy for me to this day (every time I launch Orbx it wants to update it) but it's worked since I got rid of the offending duplicate. I'm not sure if my symptoms were quite the same as yours, but it might be worth sniffing around your files/ registry in case there is another version hanging around like I found. It is possible that something in ORBX Central is causing it to break in some way. Edited March 11, 20242 yr by SimeonWilbury PUT In the UK. AMD Ryzen 5 5600x & Radeon RX6700XT. Prepar3Dv5 @1080p
