hi guys, i have several problems regarding the flightsimlabs a320 x. For example, regarding the startup of the plane I have a black screen, changing the view mode the buttons are not clickable and the fmc keys do not work ... as I do, I have already tried to reinstall it but nothing I have not had results ... . Can anyone help me? Please https://imgur.com/6dUciqX https://imgur.com/PJYqU3P https://imgur.com/1M7YR4B

I have P3D v5 and very happy with it. At the moment flying with A2a Piper Comanche and Beechcraft Bonanza. One of the default aircraft is a Piper Comanche 180. If I check the files; Prepare3D/Sim Objects/Airplanes ... the Piper Conache 180 is there. However if I try to load a flight the Piper Comanche never appears as an option in the scenario screen. Any ideas on how to fix this. Roy Higgins

Community, I'm just back into things with v5. I've noticed a haze now during flying using Active Sky and Prepar3d. Is the following picture fixable with adjustments with building popping out? https://app.box.com/file/721557725360?s=dncqnv1taqzhg42jwigt7fj0i2stz0fw

I bought this add-on many years ago for FSX and was thinking about installing it. Does anyone know if it works with P3D? Thanks.

Hi. Looking for some feedback in regards to whether you think it's worth it for me to upgrade from P3Dv4.5 to P3Dv5. I have a 9700K cpu, 2070 super video card, 2560x1440 monitor. I really like P3Dv4.5. Performance is great, better than I've ever had actually. I also have lots of addons, payware and freeware. I'm pretty content. I'm really looking for concrete attributes and features of v5 that are noticeably better than v4. Thanks for your responses. Dave

Hello, i wanted to switch to v5 of prepar3d after playing v4.5 for several months without a problem but when I run P3Dv5 I have this error which appears and P3D closes, I looked on several forums but I found no solution to my problem. Could you help me please ?

Hi, I've just bought and downloaded FSDG's Cape Town scenery for v5 and the jetways don't work? Tried through the GSX menu but it says 'No Jetway Here' at A5, when there's clearly a jetway! Am I missing a file or do I need to download SODE jetways or something? Thanks, Ben

Hi, I have an issue with the FSLabs A320 that the developers attribute to P3D not dealing correctly with dynamic lights. Situation: A320 on the runway, at night, with landing lights ON. I takeoff, fly at a certain altitude and then land. When I land, the landing lights DON'T ILLUMINATE THE GROUND. This happens both in the VC and outside: if I go outside, I se the lamps turned on under the wings, but no splash on the ground! If I turn the lights OFF then ON again, they again illuminate the runway. You can reproduce this quickly: start on the runway with the landing lights on, then slew up to say 5000-6000 ft, turn the lights off, then on again, then slew down…

I am looking at new releases from Simmarket and wondering. Are they checking their posts or are they sunbathing on the beach? Are they willing to charge money for every shed or tree? I think it is necessary to refuse to post such content. I see no artistic value in these works I ask the moderator to move the topic to the section 2020

Any suggestions for a good and compatible float plane for P3d v5? I'm looking for something along the lines of a Harbour Air turbo beaver.

Is there a way to control when there is snow on the ground in P3D or is coded only by date? Perhaps when FSX came out there was more snow this time of year, but its not particularly accurate for the current climate in the Northeast. I still am showing snow in the New York area in P3D right now.

Hey Guys, Had some issues with Navigraph after recent update pointing into right folders between V4 and V5, but managed to solve that. However it reports "unable to reach Navigraph server" , once I open simlink to see if everything is pointed where it needs to. On Navigraph Charts when I try to connect it says "could not connect to simulator". Anybody has any idea? Before last update everything was working perfectly.... Thanks

Hello. As I've never been an Orbx fan, I'm just asking how JustFlight VFR Real Scenery NexGen 3D compares to Orbx True Earth please? Best.... Phil

HELP! I have just recently started having problems with P3D v4.5 crashing to desktop and weird time issues. Everytime I try to start up a saved flight the Date and Time screen shows Night even if the time would make it show Day. The only way I can get the program to stay on for a flight is to start a new flight from scratch. I activated the error reporting and got a message saying that I had a content error to see file Contenterrors.txt. It shows a long list of Duplicate key name errors and duplicate section name errors. What's going on here and how can I fix it?

Some claim that it works but I still have not heard from REX studios:

As I'm doing more flights recently at default V5 airports, I'm noticing that some airports have weird autogen issues where trees and buildings are all over the runway. I have ORBX Base, Vector, Trees HD, Terraflora V2, and Buildings HD installed. I already tried verifying the ORBX Libraries to no avail. Even tried the Sync Simulator, no luck either. Any ideas? I'm curious if this is a P3D issue or an ORBX issue.

Milviz has released the WX Advantage Radar for P3Dv5...50% discount for previous version owners if you e-mail them with your registration details. Previous versions were a joint REX/Milviz product.

Are any of you running both Latin VFR Fort Lauderdale and Miami Regions with Orbx TE? I know that the LVFR Scenery only extends out so far for both areas and doesn't apparently incorporate all of Dade and Broward Counties... Would you place the LVFR Scenery over Orbx TE or vice versa? Which one has better Vector data and Scenery? How would you all recommend using both? Thanks!

I enjoyed the Goshawk, Boeing T-45C, in FSX, the offered version of this freeware only claim to work with P3D V2 and V3. Where can I get the download for P3D V4?

morning all, just a quick check to see if anyone has been able to get the CeraSim AS365 to work in P3Dv5. Thnx much!! Richard

Anyinw hear if ORBX is planning to add more TrueEarth products for P3dv4/5, or do you think that from here on out their focus is MFS 2020?

A strange problem has popped up when I go to ESGP. When looking around (I use Track Ir) the display freezes frequently at intervals of sometimes more than second. Actually this is similar to what some experience in MSFS at start of flight. If I go to another airport the problem is not present anymore. I have only experienced this at a somewhat lesser degree at a nearby airport ESGG. How is this possible ? These are no addon airports but default scenery. In orbx scenery I don't have the problem.

Hi Folks Anyone heard anything about this developer's status? Their last Facebook post seemed very positive about their new P3Dv5 airports. But that was back in April and I haven't seen anything since. Hope they are still in the game. Really liked their Blue Ridge Series in v4. Jesse

In the case of installing a P3Dv4 scenery into P3Dv5, where the developer has not provided a free update, it seems we have three options. 1) Pay the nominal upgrade fee to the developer with the peace of mind that you are getting a fully compatible product. 2) Download the inibuilds file. The upside is that it is free, the downside is that you obviously are restricted to airports they have worked on. 3) Do it yourself with ADE. The upside is that you can choose which airports to attend to, the downside is that it may require some faffing about and user knowledge, with no real guarantee of success. So, my question is what is the difference? I understand…

The new split airport for v5 is shocking slopes over done and tugs etc in the air don’t waste 30 euros on it till it’s least updated bad purchase I made. Regards
