    Hi guys I need your help please I have started to see a new pop up about the avatar not being attached to the vehicule and if I want to attach it or not. If not the current offset from the vehicule will be used as the new location. I don't know what I did to start getting this message. I never had it before when I choose an airport. How do I remove that? Thanks for any help

    AS there was an update with PBR some time ago. I now use tomatoshade, even if it shoots my fps. As i'm flying that silver pencil over the carribbean with the classy AA livery on it, I just noticed, that reshade affected the visuals. Looked for a config but never found one, at least for the expansions and base pack since they updated with PBR. MY question is: Do YOU guys have a config of some sort, or can maybe help me tune this plz? Wings look ok but fuselage is IMO too matte and too dark ,except at some areas like near apu exhaust and just under the windscreen about the AOA sensors. Best regards, Charly

    Hi guys I'm at a loss to what I am doing wrong here. Basically, I have got the POSKY 777-200 and POSKY 777-300. Both have various liveries installed on them. The 777-200, albiet the white gauges at night, works fine. I can use it between dawn and dusk with no issues. The -300, however, is a different story, and I can't get around why. There are strange, flickering things on the Gauges in the VC. I don't expect a lot from aircraft when I fly (I try to avoid Payware when possible), but this issue is just so annoying. Things I have tried: -Removing the Glass texture thing, as suggested elsewhere. -Using the 777-200 panel in the 777-300 …

  4. Hi all, I need your help. :) First my specs: Intel Core i7 8700k (@4.9Ghz) Gigabyte RTX2080TI 2x8gb DDR4 3000 RAM Now to my problem: At start (orgin Airport e.g. EDDF) I have around 38fps. As soon as I´m approaching the destination airports (e.g. Flytampa LGAV) frames drop to about 26fps. I tried to analyze that, but I have no idea where the bottleneck is in that moment. Tried already to find that out with MSI Afterburner Logging, but it seems as if the CPU as well as the GPU are not at its max in those situations. Could it be, that the Ram load is getting higher during the flight and I need to upgrade to 32GB?! Thanks and Rega…

    Anybody know if there are any good AI Aircraft carriers available for P3D v4.3..?? I've seen the payware package from Team SDB, it looks quite good for the price and is offered for both FSX and P3D but I don't think it will work in the 64 bit P3D versions. Any info is appreciated, thanks.

  8. I'm currently using UTLive, but i still have my old favourite MyTraffic installed. I simply set the traffic slider to 0% I leave it installed because on some flights I know I'll be using airports which simply do not have enough UTLive traffic to suit me. Aslo, with the traffic slider up a little way I can get a few more types of flights -- military and more cargo -- than provided by UTLive. BUT something, and I can't seem to track it down, keeps whacking the traffic slider up to 100% from 0%. Does anyone here have a clue what might be doing that? If I turn it down it stays down for the rest of that session, so it is something one of my add-ons is doing at start…

  12. Quck question - does anyone know what would be the proper installation of FSLabs A320-x onto P3D V4. what I mean is I have 2x separate SDD drives. I have only Windows 10 installed on my C:\Drive & I have only P3D v4 installed on my D:\Drive. I noticed that when clicking on the exe. file for FSLabs_A320X_P3D_xxx.exe. it automatically shows the C:\Drive location to install FSLabs - can I select to install FSLabs A320-x onto my D:\Drive?

  13. I installed P3Dv4, P3D PMDG B-737NGX, latest version of FSUIPC and Linda. After these steps i installed the VRINSIGHT Combopanel1. Unfortunately ony the COM-part is working In PDMG. EFIS and CMP are not working (e.g. If i turn the “Course” botton on the Combo-panel there is response on the display of the combopanel but unfortunatey NO response in the PMDG cockpit). Linda says that there are no errors and that everething is working correctly. Question: can someone help me with this issue and give me a step-by-step approach!!

    I have been learning to add scenery BGL files via SimDirector to my add-on airports. I am really enjoying adding GA and clutter to the airports. A couple of the major developers have added static planes complete with refueling and other services to their airports. My question is are they using an Airport Editor to eliminate some parking spots so as not to have AI planes parking on top of the static planes? If so, is the Airport Editor simple enough that even a novice as myself can edit parking spaces? I don't anticipate every developing my own airport but I am sure enjoying making my add-on airports come even more alive with humans and more stuff. Someday…

    I have compiled a very simple UI that reads all message exchange between the ATC and the AIs in P3D v4 (this is a WIP so feedback is needed). Download here This is for the default ATC only, it is a read only application that shows how the communication flows - this is how was designed in FSX and now translated to P3D. Best for use is along with the TrafficToolbox addon. I will be adding capabilities to send packages, edit and drop packages to AIs in the next build along with a programmable API for coders? The idea is to provide an overhaul of the whole default ATC. To install: save your DLL in the P3D root (you can edit this always) and add your dll to the dll.xm…

    I am looking for opinions on how to debug an issue I am having with the FSLabs A320 and tiller steering. My setup: P3D (4.4), FSUIPC (5.15), MFG Crosswind and FSLabs A320 (2.0.1.266b) Symptoms: I have set the tiller steering to 'sticky' and it is depressed. When I use the rudder pedals, I get the turn to start and then it fades. Looking at FSUIPC's calibration, I see the rudder value go high and then drift back to a much lower value. Things I have checked: The tiller steering is set to 'sticky'. The pedals are calibrated with MFG crosswind's tool. The rudder inputs are being passed to P3D without FSUIPC intervention. I'm running out of…

    This was an old memory, but I seem to remember that the Venice scenery that I bought from simMarket had a fix. Partly the fix was scenery, and partly the ILS frequency - the frequency is pretty important to me. I'm having trouble working out if the fix was installed on my new laptop. I could simply follow the install instructions again, but I don't understand them at all: This file corrects the view of the end of the runway 04L,04R. Fixed missing wigwag lamps. Change the frequency the ILS on 109.95. installation : Just replace the files and add new ones for your type of simulator. Pleasant flight. Team RFSB. 26.07.2018 How do you "ch…

So it does not make sense to buy FSRealTime, correct? Just the Time Zone Fixer. Thank you for explaining.

I've redownloaded the latest p4 version of the fslabs A320 ver 2.0.1.232 uninstalled my previous p3dv4 install and then reinstalled with this latest version. I then ran p3dv4.2 but I have no cockpit sound at all,just the sound of a small generator or single prop engine running in the background, not sure exactly what it sounds most like. I have tried running the a320 starting straight from vehicle selection and from starting a default aircraft first,but get the s…
