I have and am running P-G V2 with no problems on the flight machine and across the network.
However V3 is a problem.
Dispite the connect button saying connect, I cannot see my AC onscreen, I get a black square box in the top left corner with a upward pointing arrow.
I am using FSUIPC and the connection details is the same as for V2.
The lock/sync/free buttons are greyed out and I have to change from the options menu, there is no telemetry for the panel and radio.
It works fine on the main machine.
I presume I can have both on the same machine with no problems? I am loath to remove V2 as at the moment it is my fallback.
There does not seem to be anything in the manual to cover this.
I am assuming that I am really connecting, or am I. Seeing my own AC is the only indication.
Otherwise I have not had any problems with all previous versions of this great program.

I forgot to mention it is build V3.0.0.46
I see that there is later builds, should I be using them.

Its definately worth trying them.

I'm currently on build 50 over a network and it connects ok, I too am using the same settings I have for V2

I'm sure you can guess my first question to you is going to be...

Does it still happen in build 50?

Sorry Tim
Just had a nose around V2 and V3 and noticed that I did not have an FSX.cfg file in V3.
Copied from V2, and guess what.
V3 now works
this file obviously was not installed for some reason.
Still would liketo know where this log file is, just in case.
I will run the database again, but find I have to do it on the flight machine and copy to the networked machine for some reason.

Plan-G files, as documented in the readme.
