vgbaron 2 Posted November 25, 2018 Share Posted November 25, 2018 Up until this morning, all was well with NG. When I started NG this morning, I get a dialog for sim selection but nothing is visible to select - I'm dead. Uninstalled and reinstalled from v1801 zip file. After installation ( all as admin) I get the same thing when I run NG. I've made no changes to my system. Any help?? Thanx, Vic Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vgbaron 2 Posted November 25, 2018 Author Share Posted November 25, 2018 follow up - now, the sim field is populated correctly but I now get a message that "Critical error - can't connect to internet or server unreachable". Since my internet is working just fine I expect you are having server issues. I'll just keep trying and hope you get it sorted soon. edit: added the zipped log Thanx, Vic SIMstarter NG.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vgbaron 2 Posted November 26, 2018 Author Share Posted November 26, 2018 Resolved - found the sticky above re internet connection and downloaded the installer - all is well. However - since it was working fine yesterday - what caused it to crash today? I did change my desktop resolution from 4K at 30hz to 3820 at 60hz but I sure don't understand why that would affect NG.

Developer Capt. PERO 398 Posted November 26, 2018 Developer Share Posted November 26, 2018 Hi Vic, the resolution should not stop NG running. NG is looking for updates each time you start it. Maybe this function got a hick-up?! Strange. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vgbaron 2 Posted November 27, 2018 Author Share Posted November 27, 2018 Hi Peter - Same thing happened tonight - started NG and get the squashed pick sim dialog and then nothing. It was working fine when I shut down last night. Really has me puzzled, I try ANOTHER reinstall and see if I can get back to normal. EDIT: Uh oh - reinstalled 1.83 - it immediately updated to 1.84 - i did NOT uninstall prior. - same problem - select sim dialog with no way to select. EDIT 2: uninstalled - reinstalled 1.83 - it updated to 1.84 - same problem need some help - unable to use NG. Thanx, Vic EDIT: Found the problem - an installer for a payware aircraft, for SOME UNKNOWN reason changed the appath in the registry that you use to locate the p3d.exe file to the location of the aircraft. I will contact the developer. whew! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
