External Views Not Working After Installing 1.95 for P3D 4.3

Postby chrisdev01 » Thu Jul 05, 2018 4:14 pm

After updating P3D to v4.3 qnd installing FlyInside v1.95, my external views are no longer working.

When I attempt to change to an external view the screen goes black and the FlyInside "Waiting for Simulator" / Menu screen is displayed.

The Sim mirror is also black.

I have not tried reinstalling yet, as I am hoping that this issue has been reported previously and that there might be a fix or workaround...

Have others reported this?

Any suggestions?

Hi Chris, you are the first. Is this with stock aircraft ? Do you have a 3rd party camera utility running also ?

Hello Tony:

No, I am not using any camera utility.

This is happening with all aircraft.

P3D standalone and P3D native VR work as expected, problem began / exists with FlyInside 1.95

Can you try one thing for me quick ? Save or delete you p3d.cfg and restart via flyinside and let the cfg rebuild and try again ?

Tony:

Unfortunately deleting and allowing P3D to rebuild the Prepar3d.cfg file did not work.

I'm thinking of doing a fresh install to see if that clears up the problem...

Hi all

Replaced fsx with p3d v4 this weekend. Bought a lot of add ons for it to keep the standard I had.

Without tweaking it works very well. I'm really enjoying the views in my oculus with flyinside. I'm having the same problem as described here with the external views in a pmdg 737.

Hi,

Same for me, external views not working in 1.95. Tried out everything like new install, etc, but it still denies the other external views showing a black screen.
After expiriencing several other crashes i decided to go back to the older more stable version 1.92 of flyinside. Atm I cannot recommend the update.
In Order to do this I installed the legacy version 4.2 of P3D (Client only) again.
Still a lot of work for you Tony to deliever a stable Version ;)
Please let us know saspo, when this will be done!

Best regards
