Good afternoon. I just installed Plan 3g and have tried to read the manual to get it set up properly. I have Plan 3g on a separate PC from where I have P3d 4.5. I use FSUIPC Wide FS, and the the remote PC is connected to P3d on the main PC.  I built the data base on the P3d PC and copied the Plan 3g files over to the remote PC under Documents.  My aircraft shows on the remote PC. My problem is, for example, if I click on "find" no data appears.  No data shows on the map.

Hope the above is clear enough.

I think I need a bit of help here, and thank you.

Now I have really messed things up. In trying the fix the problem mentioned above I somehow lost access to Plan 3g on my remote PC. The program will not start up past the initial Plan 3g page.  The page appears and then just goes away. I have re downloaded the program from the website with virus/firewall off,  reinstalled, cleaned registry, rebooted the PC; all a couple of times but no success. Still won't start up. Am using windows 10, 64 bit.  P3d is not loaded on the remote PC.

I cant find any mention of this problem on the forum.

Thanks for any help.

OK, problem solved. I reinstalled Plan 3g to a different drive, and it is now working fine. Also, the data (airports, waypoints etc) are now showing up on the remote PC, so everything is as it should be.

If there's a stuck setting or something, best thing to do is blow away the config file (in AppData/Local/TA_Software/). Plan-G doesn't do much with the registry.
