Hi Steve,
After my first few launches of the brandnew Pro version, I've met a couple of issues:
1. When I launch IF and prepare a flight, everything goes smoothly. Then I press Fly Now and P3D is launched by IF. A second after 'Loading Scenery' duringi loading screen P3D disappears from the screen and hides itself in memory. I have to Ctl-Alt-Del to remove it there.
2. The previous versions of IF - as I recall - checked if P3D was already running. Now it launches a new copy of the program, wether it's already open or not. Thus the message appears: A copy of P3D is already running...
3. When - ad random - IF succeeds in launching Prep3D and everything seems ok, things go wrong when I load the Co-route, created by IF into the FMC -> crash to desktop of P3D. This could be a problem of exporting the flightplan within IF; there are 5 (!) different .rte options to export a PMDG FP file. Which one to choose?
4. Does P3D have to start with or without the Scenario menu?
PS: Both P3D and IF are run as administrator.
As you can see I've not been able to use IF with P3dv4 and PMDG yet. I haven't tried other planes yet, I'll let you know of course!
Have a good and healthy sunday!

PS: The Alabeo C207 (addon plane) works fine with IF! So maybe it's a IF-PMDG problem?
The Bechcraft Baron 58 (P3D4 plane) works fine as well.
