Hi! Aerosoft egll for p3d v4 is out now! Now I only need the qw787 Best Regards Mohamed

Hello, I use the fantastic Taxi2Gate in Prepar3dv4.4, is working really nice. I fixed all problems, like the double Tower, but only one problem will not disappear. The Taxibridges are gone, it's a big hole there. When I load the scenery again (other parkingspot, or change something in the Options setting - like scenery complexity) the Taxibridges appear, until I start Prepar3d again. They are working as designed (with AI taxi over the bridges, ...), but I have always load the scenery two times. And yes, KMCO is ober KMCO_Terrain in the library, an all updates are applied. Any idea? Thansk Urmel

I just saw that I have duplicate signs as shown on this thread: http://forum.iflysimx.com/topic/1566-p3d-v41-some-problems-with-kmco/ If anyone has a fix, can you please share it with me? Thanks. Jose

Would like to inform in this way briefly that the Payload Manager by Oliver Binder (Lorby-SI) is also available on the Bahrometrix download page. The download is barrier-free and can be downloaded without registration. Lorby-SI - Payload Manager X The download is also available via the Lorby-SI page: Payload Manager X Description With the PayloadManager, you can comfortably attach objects to your aircraft or AI plane via a graphical user menu. As a special feature, animated people were added to the Payload Manager, which they can now put into the cockpit as virtual accompaniment. Included are 10 high-detailed male and female persons. Features - Skydiving,…

So I think most of us agree that running with V-sync/triple buffering enabled at a 30 Hz refresh rate is the best way to experience smooth frames with no stutters or long frames in Prepar3D (unless you have G-sync monitor). Personally, I've found that this method gives even better results than the old 1/2 Vertical Sync trick that was unique to FSX. If you have a monitor that supports a 30 Hz refresh rate and a Nvidia Card, enabling a 30 Hz refresh is simple: Right-click the desktop and select the NVIDIA Control Panel. Click on "Change resolution" (under the 'Display' heading in the left navigation window) and then select 30 Hz in the dropdown list under "Re…

Just switched from FSX to P3D. I want to be able to place 2D instruments (like the 2D GNS 530, or the A2A 2D clipboard) onto my second monitor. Primary monitor has P3D VC. This was always possible in FSX when in Full Screen mode, and I just assumed it would work the same in P3D, but apparently not. I've searched and searched, and am struggling to find guidance. I've tried to create a new view, Undock it, and move it to the 2nd monitor. I can do this, but there's no option to make this view "panel only" where I can drag/drop a 2D instrument. Any ideas? Thank you. James

If anyone would share their experiences with fs2crew and the maddogs that would be appreciated. I'm debating buying FS2Crew and giving it a try...new user here. Thanks

Hello everybody Is there any software that could be recommended to create a logbook with the flights that I make in P3D v4.4? Ideally something that could store flight data such as origin, destination, time enroute, aircraft used, etc. Also it would be really nice if I could at any moment check the trajectory of the flights that I have already done in something such as Google Earth. Anything that could be recommended either free or payware? Recently I tried SIM ACARS, but I think that I can't review the trajectories of my flights in Google Earth or other map application. Thanks

I installed the full P3d suite and after about 3 weeks of fidgeting have come to the conclusion that it IS a good upgrade for these reasons: 1) Performance - Best since FS98 2) Scenery - Minimal popping settings mostly maxed 3) AutoGen - No Issues (Normal) 4) Camera System - Good - Still learning 5) Landclass - Default not bad but using Open LC 6) Graphics - Excellent with Default NVidia CP settings 7) Environment sounds - Best I've heard in any FSX related sim 😎 Cheers bs

Don't know if anyone remembers the Robert K Guy's fuelstat gauge for FSX but it is a dandy but the old one for FSX will not work in P3DV4. Has anyone tried to build one or get the FSX one to work in P3DV4? Randy

Does Anyone of you happen to know where P3Dv4 stores custom made camera’s ?I am not able to find it. I have made 2 camera views in Manage camera’s and one of them looses the Wideview correction effect ( at the right - scroll down to the bottom ). So I want to start all over and deleting them in the Manage Camera’s menu does not delete them. I have posted it at the LM forum but no one has replied to it. Thanks Gerard

Hi Folks, Not really a P3Dv4 question but I didn’t see any answers at the FlyTampa forums. I never noticed this before in previous P3d versions, but after a complete reinstall of P3D and all the scenery’s my snow textures around FlyTampa LOWW seen a lot darker than the surrounding Orbx EU textures. Is this a bad install or has this problem always been like this and I’m only now just noticing this. Or have I done something in PTA to cause this slightly darker white snow texture. thx

I've been through every manual file, and searched "deice" and "icing," but can't find a detailed procedure for enabling ground deice beyond the cold weather operation checklist. I've followed every item on that checklist (air cond supply off, cabin press lever manual/full fwd, flaps up/ret, parking brake set, apu air switch off, and idle thrust) After setting that, I call ground, choose ground deicing, and they tell me to set the brake and configure the airplane for deicing, and since I've done that I would assume it should deice, but never does. Is something missing from the checklist?

Yesterday I was flying LSZR-EDDM with strong winds reported especially around MUC. The aircraft was nicely controllable in the air but taxiing in MUC with a 32 kts tailwind was nearly impossible. I was pushed off the taxiway right and left. Is this a bit oversensitive or would you have to leave the DA52 in the hanger in the rw? Peter

Time to jump across the pond. I've been USA bound for quite a long time (forever). Any suggestions for a beginning start? I'm running a [email protected] with low/medium settings so that needs to be a consideration. Thanks, Mark

Many downloads in Flight Sim are quite large....and I was wondering if you use a specific Download Accelerator for Flight Sim. I was using IDM or Internet Download Manager, but I started having some issues with its performance so I'm now looking for one that is "automatic", in that when I click to download anything, it defaults to the accelerator. Just curious if you have a recommendation for a good, simple, fast, and intelligent accelerator. Stan

Hi guys, I know the flightsim community might not be that big for a study level aircraft to maybe be profitable but we only have PMDG(737,747,777), fslabs(a320) and majestic q400(unfinished?). Isn't this absurd low amount of aircrafts besides GA? We completely miss the entire airbus range and russian/ukranian ones. For boeing I trust PMDG to update and continue developing new products. Also, besides study level, the new updated products of Aerosoft is doable after them, it's all kinda terrible to be honest..

Hi I ve some doubts reg right video setting of p3d. My machine is i7 7700 16gb ram, two ssd, Gtx 1070 ti, main monitor LG 21:9 FULL HD 34 inches g sync 144hz. I ve tried a lot of different setting in Nvidia panel and also in p3d but I think that best solution is too far. I ve some stuttering in pan view and fps are not really good. From 14 with pmdg at LEMD to more than 40 in flight. Settings are Fxaa off V sync off Triple buffer off G sync off Fps limit 40 All other settings under p3d are about on the middle of each slider. Hdr on. What I need from you is the suggestion reg right settings under Nvi…

Hello, I started experiencing slow and sometimes no autogen when let's say I start descending and approaching the airport. I just see blank ground textures. Sometimes the autogen (buildings and trees) loads in behind the aircraft but that's very seldom. I tried lowering my settings to a minimum without success and I experimented with default, ORBX, re-installing the simulator and even buying a new pc.... But nothing worked. The problem occurs both day and night (here you got some examples) http://prntscr.com/m6aq7d / http://prntscr.com/m6arsf - Here you can see a picture where I am missing trees and textures Any idea how to fix this problem? Add-ons …

Hi, i noticed a little issue. In the Map-Setup i set ORIANTATION=TRACK UP and AUTO NORTH UP=100NM. When i follow a track, range below 100NM the Map is ok and shows TRACK UP. but with ranges above 100NM the map begins to flip between NORTH UP and TRACK UP and so it is constant reloading the map and doesn't stop doing this until i change the range back below 100NM. Maybe Sean can take a look at it. Best regards Raller

Good morning all, As the title states, I have a window that doesn't want to stay put. Win10, and P3D4.4 My setup has 4 LCD screens, and one emuteq GarSim unit. 3 of the screens are used to display 3 VCs in a wrap-around style, in windowed mode. The fourth LCD is used for controlling additional softwares, and is not used to display flight graphics. The Emuteq will be used to display Reality XP, again in windowed mode. So, the three VCs display fine, and are saved in my scenario. With P3D4.3, I had a very similar setup, but used the "free" GPS included in the aircraft, and displayed that on the Emuteq, which was also saved to my scenario fine. What …

It might be an obvious question, but still I'm curious: Does DL has any effect (and therefor a performance impact) during day light? If I turn it off during day time flying, will I notice any difference?

Hi guys, this is my first topic here i hope someone can help me i know the subject has been posted before by some member i checked all the topics without answer that could help in my case, i m trying to convert a FSX HSSS Khartoum scenery t to P3D v3.4 every thing seems to be good except the terminal buildings and hangars its not showing up in the P3D im using ADE 1.75 ,model convert x 1.30 and sketchup any one can tell me what are the steps to convert this scenery to P3d in the convert x no option to convert the file to P3D only FSX also how to export the 3d object from sketchup to convert x then to bgl file because when i reach to …

Trying to free Core Zero as much as possible for P3D itself, was able to take ChasePlane out of Core Zero, but not ActiveSky nor SkyForce. The batch file command line is identical for all three of them. What is going on?
