P3dV4 will not run with FSUIPC5 installed

[martin58]

Moved to Main Forum. Please ask questions always in Main Forum, if not clearly related to a SubForum.

P3dV4 will not run with FSUIPC5 installed.

On startup the usual small P3d black screen appears for some seconds then disappears.

The task manager shows it running with the CPU at 15% but there is no screen to access.

Removing FSUIPC5 allows P3d to run normally.

The Events log shows nothing.

It is newly registered.

FSUIPC5.ini is empty.

Hi,

as many times already answered to the same problem and clearly stated in the manual FSUIPC5.122 is not compatible with P3Dv4.0, only with P3Dv4.1. Please update your P3D to LM's latest version P3Dv4.1 (or later).

Thank you Thomas but I am running 4.1.7.22841.

 

[martin58]

Ah, when reinstalling P3dv4.1 it says it is installed but the Prepare3D.exe is 4.0!! Strange. May have to do a complete reinstall again.

Hi,

when you look at the FSUIPC5.log file you attached above you can see that all modules of P3D are actually 4.0.xx, included the exe file.

Best is to follow exactly LM's Install/Update manual.
