Hello guys! So I had a Navigraph FMC Subscription, and my last AIRAC I could have was the 1911. I quit flight simming for a while, and recently wanted to try it back. I still have the Navigraph FMC 1911 installer, and I would like to download it on my FS Labs A320. But the problem is, it doens't work... I have no idea why... I run the installer, set the correct paths, but it just doesn't want to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. 🙂

Hello All, I'm hoping someone had a fix for issue below or can point me in the right direction. Prepar3D 4.4. Lots of ORBX add-ons. Lots of airplane add-ons … Carenado, A2A, PMDG, etc. Active Sky. Saitek controls with SPAD. No other scenery or traffic add-ons. Recently (within the last month) the ATC sound stopped working. This has never been an issue. For example, I'll tune in an ATIS frequency. There's no ATC voice. If I open the ATC window the ATIS is reported in text … and keeps reporting just like it would normally. There's just no ATC sound. It's the same situation for P3D generated traffic. If I select P3D traffic the…

Hi guys, I'm working for a small project that fix P3D runway visual data to match with realworld coordinates. I have done similar job with dozens of X-plane airports data before, but this is my first time to do with P3D, and I've already met some trouble so need some help. In X-plane world editor, you can move each 4 corners of runway separately to specific coordinates, so you only need to know exact lat/long coordinates of 4 corners of real runway. However, when I was using ADE, I couldn't find such functions. There is a runway making fuction, but after add length and width, I could only rotate runway from it's center position. While hard to find accurate realworld …

Both pc’s have installed several W10 updates in the last 3 weeks. Because of working on some scenery I did not fly. Today I wanted to make a flight and Prosim showed FSUIPC in red. So I checked in P3D and no FSUIPC in the menu bar ... Severak programs now make no contact with P3D. In the dL.xml file FSUIPC is still written. A reinstall did not solve it. Both pc’s have this issue... Any suggestions?

I have Googled and searched forums and can't find an answer. Suddenly the jet ways for my Imaginesim version for P3DV4.5 have disappeared. I have the updated version. Any ideas would be appreciated Thanks in advance..

I've just buyed UTLIVE to get the new airport of Dakar (GOBD) But only the old airport (GOOY) is present and there's no traffic in GOBD . Is there a solution to add new airports on UTLIVE please

Hello folks, With the new beta release of XP11 with the Vulkan support which really brought up to 30% of performance improvements (tested personally) and also with the promising updates that are coming from Microsoft in regards to the new FS2020, what is the status of Lockheed in regards to P3D? Is there any development status like how Microsoft and XP being doing in regards to their releases? I feel like all that $$$ add-ons being invested in P3D will be blown soon 🙄

Hello all, I have a query which I think may be easily answered but harder to solve. During normal flying ... Carenado Phenom 300 ... from default airfield I am getting 60 FPS with my rig (specs below in signature) Frame rate is limited to 60FPS Monitoring the Task Manager (performance) my CPU load never exceeds (AMD R9 3900X - overclocked to 4.5) 40% and is running consistantly at 4.43 to 4.47. On approach into YBBN (ORBX Payware - terrible graphics and actually worse than default YBBN using AUv2) my frame rate drops to between 5 and 13FPS but task manager information above does not vary. Simple solution is I know, to just uninstall YBBN, but I would …

Heyo, I wanted to fly some cool old school aircraft for my cargo hauls. I came across 3 that caught my eye: CaptainSim L-1011 Aerosoft DC-8 Coolsky DC-9 Not the biggest fan of the DC-8 for some reason, but I was going to purchase the DC-9 until I saw that the cargo expansion for it looks like it's only compatible with FSX. Can anybody confirm that it only works for FSX or is it also compatible with P3D V4? The only reason why I would get it is because of the cargo expansion.

Reaching a little bit here and I would ask this question in the ProATC/x forums but it seems to be disaster over there and I can't register on the forum. I am having an issue with the database being corrupt after the program automatically updates to the newest version. I get the message "Error Clearing Database: Error on TdbModule.ExecuteSql: Dynamic SQL Error SQL error code = -607 Invalid command View VFLIGHTPLAN does not exist [DROP VIEW VFLIGHTPLAN A quick google search shows that a few people have asked the question in the Pro-ATC/X forum but all the answers get moved to the forum where you have to register. The problem is I have no way to register. I…

Hi everyone, may I ask what is considered the most realistic settings regarding the passenger boarding in GSX? I've been experimenting a bit and can't tweak it to my liking :( Any tip appreciated, thanks!

Hi All, I'm getting three ORBX airports, defo LOWI, yet the other two are undecided. I was wondering whether you had any recommendations? I deciding between Olbia, Bilbao or Dubrovnik. Olbia best suits the routes that I wish to fly, but LEBB seems like the best scenery. As for LDDU, I'm not sure, it seems like a fun approach. Any thoughts? What about Pula? Or is is best just to go with 2? Thanks, Canine

Does anyone know how to fix this? It seems to be fairly common. P3D is up to date.

Hello, i have just installed vatsim and bvai model matching to fly online, however on first use i have noticed that the ai traffic lights are huge and unrealistic. I have attached photos. I was wondering if there was a simple fix to this, as it makes it very unrealistic. Thanks image https://imgur.com/a/MQGXSID

I'm looking for an autopilot that can be used with any P3D default helicopter. Or, is there another helicopter with an auto pilot that works in P3D 4.5. Thank You. Bill; McCracken

Hello. I have this problem, flying with Carenado Phenom 100 in VC : landing lights steadily illluminate the ground and the sky. Is there any fix to solve this issue? Thank you

Hi, newly enrolled in P3D 4.5 from v3.4. I don't recall if the water textures I had in P3D 3.4 came from an REX product which it may well have I don't recall now it was so long ago I installed v3.4, but it was so far superior to what I'm seeing now in v4.5 that is just pretty darn awful! I have have REX Sky Force, but it doesn't seem to have water textures. Anyway, everything else looks fabulous but ocean around Santa Barbara CA which is where I first looked closely is just nasty. I can see the difference from Low to Ultra for sure, but it is very blurry looking by comparison to what I am used to which was quite decent. Brand new install of Win 10 and P3D 4.5. Any s…

I can see all my Orbx Airfields in the Orbx Central, 'Discover' map. I also own quite a number of other airfields scattered all over the World. Is there a way to show all airfields that I have in P3D v4.5 on a World map. It would need to pick up the Orbx fields & all those in the P3D v4/Add On Scenery folder. Thanks T45

Hi all, I'm writing this with some trepidation as I know pauses (long frames) are something that a lot of us have learned to live with on P3D. I'm running v4.5 and it's a relatively fresh installation after having suffered for years with the consistent repeatable long frames at various geographic locations caused I think the consensus is by a combination of a lot of UK2000/ORBX scenery. (although not exclusively in the UK). So the new installation has minimal UK2000 (I used to use the VFR airfields products so they were everywhere) with ORBX, not AI traffic (I fly exclusively on VATSIM) and for a while everything was kind of OK, yes there were still the odd long …

hey guys. Just picked this one up. Really like it. But having gsx problems. I'm trying to park airliners but can't load/unload with gsx because it says 0 parking spaces available. Tried turning off airliner static parking, but that didn't help. Anybody have any ideas?

Hello everyone, thinking of replacing my old sound system, and looking at 5.1 surround systems. Question is: Will P3D use the surround channels, or will I be getting normal stereo sound? Thanks, Dimitrios

Hi to all. I think I have this problem a long time now.. When I try to load a scenery in eastern Africa it just won't load the flight. (in this place approximitly: http://prntscr.com/rrk7lx). Also if I fly above this area I get an unloaded terrain which is quite annoying. Hope someone can find me the solution! Thanks for the help, Ben.

Maybe dumb question, maybe more to developers. If model for P3Dv4 uses texture size 1024 pxt and I resize it to 4K / create the new one for 4K - the same model will see it as 4K texture or will do resize to 1024 pxt again (because it was saved in the model itself as hard coding)? Thx for reply.

Hi everyone, I recently tried to install the RFN gauge on P3Dv4 (with success) as well as the Charles de Gaulle aircraft carrier. I installed my gauge in an F-18 model. Separately everything seems to be working well, my concern is that when I try to connect my Tacan to the CDG, the RFN gauge does not detect it. I've really tried everything and reviewed a lot of forums, but nothing helps. Do you have any idea what might be wrong? thank you in advance Good flight !!!!!

HI All, With the ORBX sale, I'm considering getting ORBX LOWI, however with MSFS near and the "Priority Airports" they have, that will be modeled in even higher detail, surely the money spent will just be useless as it is VERY unlikely that they would not include Innsbruck in that category. Any thoughts or other ORBX airports that you would recommend?
