StuartC Posted March 10, 2021 Report Posted March 10, 2021 I updated to version 1.2 and the BN-2B Islander G5 displays remain black. Popups work OK but the 3D cockpit displays are black. I deleted the installation and tried again with a fresh install and still had the same result.

Can you make a topic for this, once there, in order to debug what is going on, we will need you to send us a copy of the X-Plane log.txt file. You can find a guide to get this file here: How to find the X-Plane log.txt file?
