Post subject:  PF3 stops when connecting to MSFS

Hello,

Installed the additional DirectX-files as marked in another post. No errors visible.

Now every time I push "connect to simulator", PF3 starts but once it's recognized by MCE, PF3 stops and disappears.

What could cause that ?

Attached is the monitor log.

Thanks.

Eddy.

There is a possible issue for those using non UK English Windows Regional Settings which can cause (a) PF3 to supposedly crash and/or (b) being unable to load a flight plan, resulting in an invalid string error in the FPP log.

Required change:

Open 'Windows Settings'

Select 'Time & Language'

Select 'Language' in the left column

Select 'Administrative language settings' from the right-hand column

From the popup display (under 'Language for non-Unicode programs') select 'Change System Locale'

Unselect 'Use Unicode UTF-8 for worldwide language support' if selected

Then select 'English UK' for the 'Current System Locale'

Select 'OK' to confirm then exit Windows settings.

You 'may' have to restart Windows at this stage.

Please retry PF3 and let us know how you get on
