I have recently installed PF3 on a new PC running P3D on Win10.
Now the Ctrl Freq and names are always the same whatever flight I am doing. Also the Dept and Dest Freq are wrong also.

The Next and Last WP are always correct , I no longer get the Kneeboard on start up with the current Freqs. Is this a PF3 thing? I always got them in FS9

I have tried to attach the Logs folder without success , which Log files do you need?

Thanks
Steve

Does this mean that they will not show on the PF3 Display also ? how did I get Freqs on my first Flight with PF3 showing but none since.

Thanks

You need to put them into a zip archive.

No, it is just the kneeboard that isn't implemented in P3D, that's why PF3 can't use it.

From PF3_Display :)
(or tune to any frequency and try checkin, PF3 will then tell you the correct frequency)

Your P3D folder should contain a subfolder named PF3_display, with the file PF3_freqs.dat inside. Does it get updated when you are using PF3?

This is all it shows.

[Config]
Left=-28245
Top=0

It does have date and time of my last flight.

This is pf3_display.ini, which should be in your PF3/PF3_Displayer folder, please look in P3D/PF3_display for a file named PF3_freqs.dat
(the names are similar, but not identical)

You need to look in your P3D\PF3_Display folder
