Hi, great news for all fans of this iconic aircraft: https://atsimulations.com/an2

Please indulge me. I am running a little poll to get an idea of how many fly at night with HDR on or off?

Hi Everyone. I have a problem with my sim.I get 40 to 30 fps with stutters. My fps doesn't change i can lower it all to the minimum and it won't go up.Also, I have a high-end system.Ryzen 7 2700x 24gb ddr4 Ram Rtx 2070 8GB Card.I need help with the stutters

I usually fly commercial/GA jets, but every once in awhile I feel like playing with something sporty. Got a carriers add-on last night that's pretty cool, but none of the default fighters is carrier capable. It's not something I want to spend money on because I do it so infrequently. There was a very good F14 for FSX, but it doesn't look like that dev has updated it for v4. What's a good option?

Hello, I've recently purchased FSiPanel 2017 and I love the tool. However, I can't seem to figure out an issue. The FSLabs A320 does NOT capture the ILS (in this example LOWW RWY 29). The indicators on the PFD are correct for localizer and glideslope, LOC & G/S are armed on the MDA, but when the plane intercepts the ILS, the approach modes stay armed and it doesn't start descending. I have to disengage the autopilot, start descending manually and when I re-capture the ILS, the modes finally go active and I can turn AP on again to fly the approach. Is this a problem with FSiPanel or me? 🙂 Thanks...

Hello! I am wondering if it's possible to use Envtex/shade with Tomatoshade. If so, would anyone have a workflow on how to do this? Any help appreciated.

HI does anyone know or have the files for olba x and lebanon terrain x for p3d v4.4

Dear Ruedi: Today I purchased & installed Hi Fi Active Sky(AS). After that I loaded Vertxsim DA62. But some strange things happened: 1. G1000 display units took long time to boot up after I turned master batt sw on. 2. Engines could not be started. 3. Both in PFD and MFD topographic displays lost. Then I adjusted code settings (Advanced menu), re-installed xml.dll files no help. Uninstalled AS. Still no help. Then I unistalled/re-installed Vertx DA62. Then topo came back. Now it appears to me that I can't use AS and Vertx DA 62 at the same time. I posted to AS Support forum. But no reply so far. Kindly help. Regards, Haseen Ahmad.

Is their a noticable difference with fsglobal2018

Does anybody know if the Default ATC is part of the client or content in 4.4? I need to fix some ATC problems and thought a reinstall would solve it. Thanks, P.

Hello Looking for help for the installation of real photos in P3D … Can we use Ortho4XP on P3D v4 because it converted the .jpg in .dds Can be integrated with P3D. On Xplane 11 there is a file scenery.pack.ini that is not in P3D. If any one to the solution i thank him for making me benefit.

This morning I saw Simmarket announce the release of WF SCENERY STUDIO - BEIJING CAPITAL INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT ZBAA P3D. I'm well-aware A_A Sceneries is also developing this much-need hub for those of us who like to fly commerical. I own some AA_Sceneries airports, but I'm not familiar with WF Scenery Studio. Has anyone tries their other Chinese airports? Thanks

Anybody using TropicalSim's KMCI Kansas City airport scenery...?? It's on sale right now at Simmarket for 13 Euro and I just wondered if it's any good.... https://secure.simmarket.com/tropicalsim-kansas-city-intl-2018-kmci-fsx-p3d.phtml

Hi ! I have major texture clipping in P3D v4.4, is there anyway to get rid of it? Im using a 1080ti with the latest Drivers and I use the highest setting for AA in P3D, anyways nothing I do seems to get rid of it. I read on the flight beam form to change a setting in the camer.cfg file, it was something about Clipmode=minumum and change it too "normal" but it didn't really fix anything. thanks!

Picked this up at Simmarket yesterday on sale. It includes 14 islands and 9 airports.... https://secure.simmarket.com/flightscene-tahiti-and-society-islands_fsx-p3d.phtml For flying along VFR and just enjoying the natural beauty of the scenery passing by below it's very nice IMHO.

I like to fly the default B737 from FSX using P3DV4.4. The only problem is that I can't find a panel that will give me altitude call outs when landing. Would anyone know of a panel that would work or perhaps changing the panel cfg. to make it work? Thanks. Bob G.

Hello, Is there add-on software available that will capture flight data and pilot input for post-analysis (similar to a CDR)? Or might it already be built into P3Dv4? I once had a flight (big iron) with possible failures simulated, where the autopilot disconnected and I could not control the airplane. P3Dv4 restarted and all the evidence of the crash was eliminated. I sure would have liked to know what the actual failure was, and how my inputs either contributed to the problem or that I otherwise did not correct the error in the proper manner. The other major use of a CDR I can see, would be (for modern airliners) to monitor how well I stayed within the …

Well, Not absolute at all but this should really get you a little exited. (included FSFX immersion effects) Michael Moe

Hi All Been trying to buy the 3D sounds package for UTL from SimMarket but it seems to have disappeared 🙁 Anyone any clues? Also posted on their website but no reply after about a week. Thanks for any help Regards Alan

Hello, I am wanting to do this with P3D V4. I open AI Flight Planner but unsure what do after that. First time using this program.

So it's my understanding from reading some older threads that this scenery works fine in v4.x, but I would be interested to know what it's impact on performance is...??

hi, i'm discovering sailplanes with Aerosoft Discus and others gliders, in P3D v4.4. I'm using Schematic thermal visualization because the natural one doesn't seams to work. I have never seen birds for thermals areas. But my big problem i encountered, is that locations of thermals looks not correctly placed. In the area of the thermals colored circles it does no more effect of updraft, but in some areas i have the effects of thermals, but not corresponding to the thermals colored circles. I use Active Sky for P3Dv4. I tried to use CumulusX but i uninstalled it. Have you an idea, an advice to set/reset thermals at corresponding visualization (colo…

Dear Friends at AVSIM, fist of all - i want to wish you an enjoyable new years celebration with all your families and Friends. Sorry to bother you, but i've a strange behaviour with the TFDI 717 which don't let me stop thinking since month. As alreay posted in the TFDI support Forum, i've an Topic with the Displays of their 717 which occurs ONLY in Prepar3D V4.X. It's strange because i can run it in FSX-Steam, Prepar3D V3.4, etc. - but, if i'm going to fire-up V4.X, no Display works at all. First of all, i checked simconnect, the MS Redistributables, DirectX, etc. but Nothing helped at all. Since it's working in FSX and P3D V3.4 - i came to t…

Can anyone recomend a good ghz for prepar3d and a good cooler
