I have downloaded the QW 787 for P3dv4 but no dispatcher was installed. Where can I get it, I have downloaded twice and while it appears in the start menu when I click on it says missing link, cannot be found. Can anyone help?

I was wondering is there anyway to turn off Pilot's mesh for a specific state in the USA? I want to turn it off for Alaska but keep it for everything else.

I have a simple question in need of a simple answer: Is there no compatible plug-in which will display P3d V4 on an iPad using Foreflight? I have spent four days trying to get a friend's computer, with a newly installed P3d V4 and the plug-in from Flight1 Tech, to display on his new iPad with Foreflight installed. After all this time, I checked my own newly installed P3d V4 and it will not display on my iPad. My P3d V2 works fine. FSX works fine. Is this an incompatibility? Is this an oversight by the plug-in's producer? Did LM decide to not allow this previously successful plug-in to work? Is a fix in the works? What's the deal? I don't have, nor have I needed in t…

Hello Currently have Orbx FTX Global, Vector, OpenLC Europe, installed into the P3D V4.5 (With Hotfix 2) My problem is that my texture loading slowly and i have black textures on ground (not in water) Please help me, downloaded Icloockup in orbx forums with no results, reinstalled scenery.msi with no results..... My message from ORBX troubleshooter: Invalid files: Scenery\BASE\Scenery\lclookup.bgl.

A few years ago, user Javiz posted a way to place cameras on the airstrips without having to install programs like Chaseplane or EZdok. (https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/403991-how-to-make-a-plane-spotting-view/) It works very well on P3d and FSX, but the camera's speed is very slow. Does anyone know how to change this camera speed? Thanks

The time has come to move to Windows 10 so I can consider MSFS 2020 and have better security. I will be using the Media Creation tool. Do I need to delete everything P3dv4.5 related off of my hard drive and reinstall everything all over again after the upgrade. If you know of an easier way to complete this task I am all ears. If you have any recommended Youtube videos please provide the link. Thanks Randy Smith

Hello, I have about 350 airline flightplans in my P3D V4.5 system. I have installed all of those manually as well as the aircraft models and liveries. I stick only to aircraft that have the P3D update. I have created a 45 minute flight plan between two airports in the US to test the liveries and models are operating correctly. I can have up to 14 aircraft departing and arriving using the same plan. I have all of them departing at the same time, to test how well can they keep separate on take offs and landing. I programmed the departure at 12:00:00 from KGWO and the arrival at 12:45:00 at KMEM, the the return leaving KMEM at 13:00:00 arriving KGWO at 13:45 (all…

Hello everyone ! I have a problem with my sim, since 2 weeks I try to make tomato shade work but my sim look the same i have compare to screenshot of the preset i'm trying to use ( RD preset). But my sim looks vanilla, i think that came from the sim and not from tomato shade since I have see this post : https://www.prepar3d.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=130333 I'm not 100% shure that came from the sim. Or maybe the bug came from the Ultimate realism pack that I have test in the past, because the bug appeared since I tried it. (not shure) Can someone help me please ? Max My sim Tomato shader sreen from Live Cockpit

Hello, This has to be the wierdest bug I've encountered so far in flight simulation history. I recently picked up UK2000 Belfast and Birmingham. When I tried to install the scenery, the installer runs just fine, and even asks me for the options at the end. But the scenery folder itself is missing. I cannot find it anywhere.after it finishes installing. I checked my temp folder during, and the scenery files show up there, but as they get moved, they disappear. I've tried redownloading the installers, the UK2000 installer v1.31(Not the scenery installer). This is what I suspect is causing the issue. If anyone has a version older than this, can you please sh…

I've spent years on FlightSim systems, and each airport normally has a unique 4-letter code (eg KJFK, EGNT). I have bought the scenery for Southern Tenerife airport, but on the internet the code ( GCTS ) is not unique - it's for both that airport, plus Reina Sofia. Which is the code I should be using for Tenerife??

Hi, I've tried a Google on this but can't find anything specific to this problem. At Flytampa Amsterdam all my ILS beams are at the opposite end of the runways they are supposed to be guiding for, so when I approach the ILS is directing me to the end of the runway instead of the TDZ. I've the Aline2Sim GSX profile here and the inibuilds dynamic lighting enhancements but I can't see how these effect the ILS's. Anyone had this problem and know how to fix it or should I just try and reinstall of the scenery and see if that fixes it? I didn't want to do this as I would need to redo the GSX and inibuild stuff. Thanks!

Ey there. I know almost asking for everything. But i'm looking for a nice GA fitted with G500/G600/Aspen which i can add the Reality Xp GTN 750 and been able to cross the Atlantic. Any advice?. Thx in advanced!

Hi, I recently purchased the Qualitywings 787 for P3DV4, and I am more or less enjoying it so far. One of the things I am seeing is when I engage the autopilot and turn a random heading, and FLCH to 10,000 ft, it puts severe inputs into the control column, causing the nose to violently push up and down. It never reaches the altitude. Can anyone help me with this?

Can someone please remind me of the solution to the problem whereby my plane's engines are running much higher than idle for a few seconds after loading before returning to normal? I have just installed everything from scratch on my new PC, and I cannot remember how to correct it! EDIT: I think that I may have found the solution. I need to add "time_constant=0" to the [SOUND] section of the Prepar3D.cfg file.

Morning- Random question for you guys. I am currently flying the PMDG 737NGX, via the FMC and using real routes from flightaware etc. While I prefer to use the real routes, I still like to have a little communication with the default ATC, however when it's rainy/snowy etc, I receive the "request denied, airport is currently IFR," which even though I'm flying via the FMC and have the runway plugged in, obviously the FMC and ATC don't talk to each other. I usually just land anyway, but was wanting to know if there's a setting somewhere to just override the IFR only in ATC and have it assume I'm coming in IFR. Any thoughts would be appreciated. Thanks,

Hi ! Which rendering API does Prepar3D 4.5 use ? Many thanks ! J

Iconic Huey Redux gets new life I fly the Milviz Huey Redux also with TACPACK😀 and i have to say this bird does its job in Prepar3D quite well also it is the only Helo out of the box with functional weapon system and Milviz provides a lot of suport for their customers . just recently Milvic anounced new advanced effect pack was released for the Huey Redux its called HTP Full Edition and it realy bring new life in this iconic Helicopter. Its real Good 🙂

Is there a perfect helicopter in P3D 4.5HF1? thank you !

Hi, I have noticed since my installation of P3D V4, that some textures of buildings and add-on jetways at night have green pixels (See Below). Any ideas of how I can fix this, the textures look normal within a graphic editor. I have contacted GSX forums earlier and was asked if I had software such as "TomatoShade" installed, which I do not. PC Specs: CPU: Ryzen 3 1200 GPU: Asus GTX1050 2GB RAM: HyperX DDR4 8GB. https://ibb.co/d6QsTCv https://ibb.co/bB2ny7F Many Thanks,

Greetings, I recently purchased the latest version of the FSL A320. I would like to install the FSL Spotlights so I have dome cockpit lighting. I have downloaded the latest version of that. My question is where do I point the installer to? My FSL A320 is located at F:/Addons. Do I point the installer there or just let it install to the default installer locations? Regards, Scott

What do you all set the slider to? say for example single engine piston planes etc? I’m going to assume the larger the plane the tighter the cabin and less outside sound?

I have started migrating my addons from the P3D Core to an Addons Folder according to Mike Davies and wonder if the is a way of doing this with my aircraft: PMDG NGXu Majestic Q400 Any ideas?

I got my taxi clearance, but there is no option in the ATC window to turn on Progressive Taxi to the active, in P3D 4.5 Should there be? Can you turn it on or off from a keyboard key command?

I've had to take a little break on simming and I've forgotten some of the basics of P3D. How do you get it to quit cyclicling through views from the cockpit to outside and other various views and just view the cockpit. I've forgotten how to do that.

Hi all, Have been recently looking to get me P3Dv4 set up properly sorted, and am not entirely educated/skilled on all the modification side of things when it comes to creating panels and pop outs and all those things. I have just added the RXP GTN650 add on and a RealSimGear unit to use it, and am keen on hopefully a G500 display if/when someone comes out with it, however in the mean time i am looking to see if anyone is able to assist or point in the right direction of creating a instrument view window that has the standard flight instruments in say a G500 looking PFD set up, or similar Boeing style PFD that still interacts with the bugs/hsi/cd…
