Hi,
I have a new installation of Win10, P3D4, and PF3. I'm a long time user of PF3, familiar with the program, so I must have done something stupid this time.

PF3 loads a flightplan, allows me to change altitudes, and accepts a press of the "Connect to FS" button, but no initial message appears in P3D. Pressing the zero hotkey produces nothing.

I've attached a logs.zip which I hope will help.

Regards, Jim H.

This is what should have been displayed in your text windo
30/03/2019 20:54:15: 700 - FS Screen :  ComFreq: 118.15 <> GroundFreq: 121.8
As you can see, you weren't tuned to the correct frequency

Thanks Dave. That means PF3 is functioning as it should. Can you help me find a way to get the message window to appear in P3D4?

I'm accustomed to seeing the initial message when I connect, and then one when I press 0, telling me I'm on the wrong frequency.
Right now I'm getting no messages at all.

Regards, Jim

I've no idea why the link between PF3 and the message window is broken, but I have discovered I can get the Ground or Tower frequency from the GTN 750 if I am using that. From then on I have audio communication and the flight can proceed.

I do have a separate issue - kernelbase.dll errors. For that reason I propose to deactivate and uninstall PF3 along with a few other things, than restore a backup of both my C:\ and my P3D drive.

I'll update this situation when I get back.

Regards, Jim

You can obtain frequency information by running the PF3 Display Utility (pf3_display.exe, located in the PF3_Displayer folder) after PF3 is connected. Hopefully your other issues will be fixed after the reinstallation.
