    Hello, everyone. Why don't I ever see those cumulous or "popcorn" looking clouds with ActiveSky, like I used to with Rex Skyforce 3D?? I figured that I probably shouldn't run both programs together. Maybe somebody knows how? Thank You in advance! Mike

    I am sure that most of you are aware that FC Scenery are one of the very few (if only) developers that currently support P3D with regular additions and updates to their excellent global scenery packages. You may also be aware that this is almost a single person operation. Unfortunately, the lead developer, Fernando, has posted on his Facebook site that he is having some health issues that he needs to finance treatment for. He is not seeking donations, but he has applied some generous sales and discounts on his website, with a view to drumming up some revenue to help-out. https://www.fcscenerys.com/ If you were considering adding FC Scenery to your P3D experienc…

    Hello everybody I bought FSHud at sale and trying to get it working - looks promising, but I have some questions. I have hundreds of AIG-flightplans installed in .bgl format. When using bgl as AI source in FSHud, I do get very little AI planes (about 15-20), and they do not follow timetables as specified in the bgl at all. Is there no way using .bgl as a reliable source for AI in FSHud? And which bgl does FSHud actually read at all? I cannot find an answer to that question. I reinstalled all the AIG-flightplans in aigfp-format. When selecting aig as AI source in FSHud, then it works very nice. However, I have one big problem with die aigfp-format: I can…

  8. Hi! If anyone has an A321 .CFG file with increased fuel capacity to simulate the A321LR’s long-range operations, I would appreciate any help. I tried to modify the aircraft’s configuration to boost fuel volumes, but unfortunately couldn’t get it to work. If anyone successfully created or located an A321 configuration (.CFG) reflecting the LR’s fuel, weight, and operational range, sharing it would be extremely helpful. My attempts ended in failure even after adjusting tank parameters and weights.Any specific tips, modified .CFG examples, or pointers to reliable sources would be welcome! Thanks you very much!

    I realized I don't have any scenery for Bodrum Turkey (LTFE). There are three payware sceneries I can choose from, which one do you think is best? Justsim: simMarket: LTFE MILAS–BODRUM AIRPORT P3D5 PKSIM: simMarket: BODRUM P3D4 P3D5 FSDG: simMarket: FSDG LITE- BODRUM FSX P3D Edit: I will be using the scenery in P3D v5.4

    HI 😀 I use the flight simulator Prepaid 3D V5.3. I have no problems with it; it works perfectly. I purchased the Rex Sky Force program (build number: 5.0.2022.0516) for P3D (V5.3). The purchase, download, and installation went smoothly. I checked the manual to see if this software is compatible with P3D version 5. The manual stated that the software is compatible with P3D V 5.I installed the software as standard and did not make any changes. I only checked that the settings were correct. I also checked that the path to P3D was set correctly, and it is. Then I tested whether the program works with P3D. To test this, I installed a different cloud struct…

  14. News just out from LeonardoSH: News from Leonardo SH - News and updates - Fly the Maddog X Support & Community Forums Sad news but lets be honest there are just not enough of us P3D users left and my guess would be sales have pretty much flatlined for a while now... I guess anyone that hasn't bought this lovely but obsolete aircraft might want to make use of the current Black Friday discount, which runs for 5 more days (at the time of writing). After which the aircraft will likely not be available for purchase anymore. simMarket: LEONARDO SOFTWARE HOUSE SRL

  15. Hello pilots I need help. Today I bought the Douglas DC-8 for P3D 4.5 from Aerosoft. I installed it and I think the installation went well. The aircraft was installed directly under Lockheed Martin. Aerosoft DC8 folder. The aircraft is not visible in the list of installed aircraft. I have the Airbus and the Tomcat from Aerosoft and they work. What can I do to solve the problem? Best regards Julio

    Hello all, I've recently bought a few items for me and I seem to have issues with them. One of these products were Aerosoft EGLL for P3DV5, when I spawned in for the first time at terminal 4 gate 421 I seem to have issues with GSX and the scenery. I was getting a message from GSX "Bad jetway data" but there was a physical jetway there. So in retaliation I decided to buy GSX profiles from cartayna and see if they would change or fix anything, to my surprise the entirety of terminal 4 does not have jetways. I spawned in at terminal 2 and it has jetways but I get a message from GSX saying bad jetway data again. I have re installed both the GSX profiles and done a clean wipe…

    Hi all, What are you guys using in NCP? I have "Prefer maximum performance" But am wondering if... Texture filtering - ansiotropic sample option " " - negative LOD bias " " - trilinear optimisation Low latency option are recommended these days? A guide recommended them a while back, but am wondering about your experiences (especially if any these induce the dreade blurries). Thanks for any advice, Rudy

    Greetings fellow pilots, I am currently using an Nvidia 1660 TI card in my PC box with an Intel 11700 CPU. I am thinking of upgrading to a 3060 or a 3060 TI. what’s the communities opinion about this upgrade? Is it worth it? as you may know, the 1660 has only six gigs of onboard memory. The 360 has 12, which I think will make a significant improvement in performance. BTW, MY POWER SUPPLY IS 750 watts which I THINK I WILL HAVE ENOUGH OVERHEAD. Thanks for your thoughts and opinions Sherm

  20. Hi, I modified default UUDD airport properly having added correct parking spots and approaches, but when opening P3D, I see a duplicated main terminal, which remains there whatever effort made to correct it using ADE 1.78. I tried every possible workaround unsuccessfully. As I ran out of ideas, any suggestion is welcome. https://imgur.com/a/ZFxDDHM

  21. Hello everybody There is P3D-Scenery for Algiers (DAAG) by prealsoft available here. Sadly, it was released before the opening of the new Terminal 4. BPW Scenery did a freeware update for the new terminal including PBR (click). Unfortunately, the download is no longer available. Does anybody have the update on his or her harddrive and could provide me with a link? Kind regards Michael

    I've had this view setup for a while but today decided to use it when taxiing around the airport as well as when airborne and on a/p. It really adds to the immersion when taxiing. No more squinting through the windscreen. You don't need any of your instruments when taxiing, just hands on the throttle and feet on the rudder and brakes. Although this is an airborne shot inbound to Tucson it's even more immersive when on the ground. Try it! This with a PMDG737-800.

  23. PKSIM sceneries for P3D are available again at simmarket. Perhaps they listened to our requests. I send them a mail just before last weekend and asked for re-enabling their sceneries at simmarket, at least for 2 weeks or so. Then we have the possibility to buy what we want from them! So very happy; gonna buy their sceneries. Last few weeks three brand new other sceneries at simmarket: KTUL Tulsa from RF Scenery Builders WBKL HTDA (this is the international airport at Dar Es Salaam in Tanzania) This makes my day. P3D is alive! Rein

  24. The TFDi MD-11 has been released. Though it's not really clear without diving deep into the website, the $69.99 price tag gets you access to versions for multiple sim platforms including P3D v4-5-6 and MSFS. The base price is for either the freighter or pax variant--an upgrade to add the opposite variant and have both pax and freighter jets is an additional $9.99.

  25. I've always used ORBX NA sceneries PNW, NORCAL, SOCAL and one day last year I decided to try the True Earth sceneries: US Washington, US Florida, Norcal and Socal. I added them on top of the NA sceneries because the installer said it would work fine, with the only issues being Autogen. The results were AMAZING. What I didn't catch on to was that this was the beginning of occasional long pauses lasting 10-30 seconds whenever I flew near the US West Coast. I fought with those pauses for a long time without success. About a week ago it dawned on me that there was an obvious correlation between pause locations and ORBX sceneries, so I uninstalled the ORBX …
