Nick Cooper Posted September 4, 2017 Share Posted September 4, 2017 Hello, In the absence of a reply, I will assume that the select a simulator message offers you no simulators. FTX Central looks for the P3D v4 registry entry at "RegistryKey": "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\\SOFTWARE\\Lockheed Martin\\Prepar3D v4", "RegistryValue": "AppPath" The AppPath entry must point to where you have installed P3Dv4, and that folder must contain Prepar3D.exe.
