Could someone please point me in the right direction to some ACCURATE instructions on how to get the PBP3 compiler to be seen in MPLABX? I have googled for hours, and everything I find is 8.x, and none of it seems to remotely apply to X....

Good luck getting any sort of help. MElabs and Mecanique seem to be too busy with other projects to support their legacy products. I recently purchased PBP Pro 3.0 and MCSP full version and am disappointed to find that MCSP particularly provides ZERO support.
Cyberdove, what are you doing to request assistance? I usually get prompt replies from emails, and Charles (at ME Labs) has shown generosity with his time on the phone. I have never attempted to utilize tech support from MCSP.

Why insist on using 32 Bits when you're not even able to deal with the first 8 ones ??? ehhhhhh ...

IF there is the word "Problem" in your question ...
certainly the answer is " RTFM " or " RTFDataSheet " !!!

I'm getting hung up:
"3) Mark PBP Tool Chain and PicBasic Language Syntax"
PicBasic Language Syntax is not showing up as one of the options. Did find the PBP Tool Chain option.
Those instructions are from a much older version of MPLABX. The Language Syntax plugin is no longer available.
A number of features no longer work the same way (if they work at all). Last time I tried it source level debugging was just about useless.
I agree , i'm heading back to mikro C for new projects . their latest update enables source level debugging for some of the newer chips ,finally!Last time I tried it source level debugging was just about useless.

So if I understand correctly, there is absolutely no advantage (debugging) to going through a massive ordeal to attempt to get PBP3 to work in the new MPLABX over the MicroStudio?!?
Hmm, source level debugging seems a distant dream for PBP.
But to be fair, the language syntax of PBP is much more straight forward than C so it is easier to debug and correct errors.
Still, debugging is on top of my wish list.

not if you include usercommands and asm code blocks .But to be fair, the language syntax of PBP is much more straight forward than C
and that's the only thing that keeps pbp3 viable for me

It's not entirely clear, but you might need the AC244066 Emulation Extension Pak to debug the 16F1619.
Looking at it again I think you're right. I was looking in the datasheet and didn't see anything about debug support.
According to mplabx 4 the 16F1619 should be supported by PK3 and ICD3.
Which MPLABX in turn does not support PBP3...
Back to square 1.
