Since we can not use the 1/2 vsync option in P3D as we did in FSX I am looking for a native stable 30hz monitor. I am looking into the 34 inch widescreen monitors. I did buy an Asus Rog 34 inch G sync monitor but immediately returned it for a couple reasons. Even though G sync is advertised to work from 30 FPS and up I found that if u cant maintain at least 40 FPS in the sim there was horrible stuttering and screen flickering. Also when enabling G sync to work in windowed mode every time u move the mouse the monitor would kick out of G sync mode causing bad stutters.. And lastly this monitor would not run at 30hz no matter what I tried. Long story short this monitor…

Hello everyone and happy lunar new year. (im a bit late :p) Anyways, I'm having a bit of an annoyance with OverLand RKSI (the FSX version) with P3D v4. The scenery wasn't made for P3D v4, but I have seen this airport in some videos with P3D v4 and they have no problem. First of all, the "Korean Air Catering" buildings have been shifted on to the runways. I don't know why, but I had this problem in FSX a while back, and it just fixed by itself. (Or maybe i did something im not sure) Secondly, a runway is elevated over the land. Lastly, there are some taxiways that are clipping with the terrain. While terrain clipping isn't a h…

Can the Quality Wings Avro RJ handle RNAV approaches? If so, how do I set this up for descent? I note that there is a GPS button between the VOR/LOC and APP buttons. Do I use this for RNAV approaches? I want to be able to get the aircraft to descend at a controlled rate for final approach.

Hello @ll, while naming GSX in the title, this seems to be a general issue with the latest P3D versions. The rendering sequence of sim objects seems to have changed, I have similar issues in my own apps too. Anyone remember if this has always (= since the avatar mode existed) been like that? Best regards

I did a complete install of P3D V4.4 and have everything (I think) working properly except for one problem. All my aircraft start with the ADF and DME audio on. I can turn them off but after a few seconds they come back on. It doesn't appear to be caused by the default flight. I loaded the P3D default and switched to my PC12 and the same problem occurs. Any ideas on how to turn them off and have them stay off.

P3dv4. Using fsaerodata updated airports, both the global and the N. America ones. I also have Flightbeam's KMSP scenery. It's acting like there are duplicate airport files for KMSP, because ATIS is returning twice the number of runways that actually exist at KMSP, and the extra runways are a degree off of the correct ones (i.e, I have 30L and 30R, and 29L and 29R). I ran Scruffy Duck's airport finder, and it found the fsaerodata files for KMSP but did not see the default files for it, or the Flightbeam files. It's odd because I have most of Flightbeam's other airports, and none of them exhibit these problems. Everything was installed on the same day after …

Hi all- Just installed FT CYUL; very nice. Anyway, I can get no ai at this airport regardless of setting and I don't know why. I'm using the new AIG AiManager which has been great. Ai at other airports is fine. I posted over at FT regarding this but no joy. Anyone else having this issue? Thanks, Mark

Hello all, I'm trying to figure out what is causing strange terrain artifacts (spikes). Currently running P3Dv4.1 at the moment with Oculus Rift (PC specs in signature). I've attached a pic below for reference. The picture is a relatively mild case of it, seems to be very random when/where they pop up at. Sometimes I will get dense clusters of them towering at varying heights. Trying to do some research on it has brought me to hardware overload as a possible culprit however my settings have been reduced quite a bit to run native VR smoothly. I've also monitored my temps during sessions where the artifacts appear and there doesn't seem to be anything crazy going…

Seasons greetings to the forum. Been a while since I posted here but always lurking. Having been a loyal FSX merchant since release and patiently waiting for P3D in 64 bit, I am now transitioning to V4.1 and determined, after years of FSX grief and headaches, to get things right from the start so I have a clean & stable sim platform. All my flying is done around Wales and SW England. Not to keen on the Orbx stuff for this area so I want to stay with Horizon VFR Photo Scenery GenX Version 3 and UK2000 Airports, I believe both work well in V4.1. I like the idea of installing add on scenery and Aircraft in a folder outside the sim so they are not disturbed in future…

Hey mates, is it normal that when all lights are off (cold&dark) nearly nothing is visible in the cockpit and outside? The first 2 photos show the plane after cold and dark state insert. The third one is with external lights on and dome light on. The first ones are so dark that you not able to find any knob. Also it seems that landing/taxi lights do not illuminate the ground. I also checked that on a PMDG 777 and its the same there. Strange thing for me as I never had that before in my mind. System: P3D v4.4 Windows 7 x64 GTX 980 TI (one of the latest drivers installed)

Howdy Folks, I just started getting an unwanted bloom effect when I pan down in the cockpit and then go back to looking out the windows. It's not that bad, and I'm kind of getting used to it, but at the same time, I can't get rid of it, and I don't know how it got there to begin with. At first I thought it was a shader preset. Nope. Tried restoring shaders, trying different presets, then reinstalling Client. Same thing. Then I thought maybe it was the bloom settings in P3D, but it's still there when I turn that off. Next, I thought it was an issue with one of my reshade presets, but I don't see any changes in my settings, and I don't have a bloom fx in there a…

I have just run across Prepar3d and don't know anything about it. I have X Plane, but have some problems with it. I used to use MS Flight Simulator many years ago and really liked it. I really liked the IFR scenario flights in particular. My understanding is that Prepar3d is built off that architecture of MS Flight Simulator? Is it pretty similar in operation and look? Does it have the IFR scenario flights like MSFS did? I'm just trying to find something I can use again to practice IFR procedures and stay proficient in that. Thanks for all the info.

I am on P3Dv4.4 and have their latest scenery for P3Dv4 v1.3, The scenery looks great but unfortunately the main airport terminal is not displaying (Missing). I have Orbx FTX and Vector and after using Vector's Tool it fixed a well known terrain elevation issue. Thinking that maybe Orbx files were to blame, I disabled all of them but still no terminal. Jetways and rest of scenery appear correctly. Wondering if anyone here has this scenery and has had this same problem and if they have managed to fix it. I created and account to get support but still waiting for the verification email. Cali and San Andres sceneries work great. If I get anywhere with the developer I'll let…
