Can't get moving maps to work in P3Dv5.3

[Jerrymc3]

I upgraded from P3Dv4.5 to v5.3 a couple of weeks ago but I can’t get moving maps to work. It was working in v4. I installed Simlink and it shows to be installed in my Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons\Navigraph Simlink folder . I’m signed in and I have a flight running in P3Dv5 but Navigraph Simlink Status says “Navigraph Simlink cannot detect a flight in your simulator. Not broadcasting flight data to server.”

Hi Jerry,

I suggest you start from scratch with latest Charts and Simlink . Please disable any Antivirus and Firewall.

In Simlink Plugin Settings uninstall Simlink plugin from your FS , then completely uninstall Simlink and Charts using Windows Programs and Features exactly as under .

If they exist delete directories
c:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Navigraph and c:\Program Files\Navigraph

Then download and install latest Simlink and Charts Desktop using the default prompted locations.

Restart computer.

Please let us know how you get on.

Cheers
Ian

Do I do that inside P3Dv5?

Hi Jerry,

Use Simlink icon in Windows systray bottom right of screen:
