Good Day If anyone is using Real world scenery , I need some advice 1- Can I use Real World scenery while the following is running as well: ( FTX Global and whole package- Rex HD airports- Rex ex]essential one drive- AS2016 ) 2- If anyone installed it can you give me some guide how to install in prepar3d V3.2 the manual I believe is missing a step as I keep getting error message after unzipping the file and press install. Many Thanks Amr

Hello everyone, Have been playing a lot recently with Flyinside for P3D V3.4 and 3.2 and also XP10 and XP11.XPlane is pretty stable but I don't like the VR scenery in Xplane, it's all shimmering and blurry.p3D/flyinside look pretty awesome but have never been flying longer then 5 mins before crash to desktop.Changing location/weather/airplane/settings......doesnt matter what...CTD!My question is: the native VR support in version 3.4 looks very good but there is no interactive cockpit andthe position in de cockpit seems to be stuck in one place. Is there a possibility to change seat position in native VR?Maybe using ezdok or chase plane??Is it possible to spice up the grap…

A while back I suddenly noticed this symbol on the screen when I run P3D. (Both v2 and v3). https://www.dropbox.com/s/cy6x666snu4s34z/Thing.JPG?dl=0 Nothing happens if you click on it, and you can't drag it or anything. It's just there. It flickers sometimes, but that's about it. Oh, and it is only in P3D. No other program has it. Does anybody know what it is? Russ

Hello all, I've just started encountering issues with the QualityWings 757 in Prepar3D V3.4. When I disconnect the autopilot the aircraft does not respond to my joystick inputs. I was wondering if anyone else has experienced this issue? I think it could possibly be connected with FSUIPC. I had this issue on my old PC and I managed to fix it but I can't remember how I did it. I am able to control the aircraft perfectly fine on take off and climb and then engage the autopilot. It is when I disconnect it the aircraft is unresponsive to my joystick inputs. Thanks for your time, Jonathan

Use Central 3 to grab it... Update for openLC North America is now available via FTX Central or your account. Fixes: - Corrections to the LandClass in the Caribbean area (Bahamas, Guadeloupe, etc.) - Added more than 2,000 settlements in Mexico - Adjustments to other landclass textures - 86 corrections to Caribbean airports by Neil Hill Further corrections to Caribbean coastlines will be available in the upcoming Vector patch.

I have noticed there haven't been any updates for quite a while. Has Gottfried Razek abandoned the photoscenery projects? Any info much appreciated.

I stumbled across this video while looking for bizjets for FSX (P3D) Looks like a darn good attempt at a freeware Gulfstream https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0SAX50Helm8 Wonder if it got shot down by the Gulfstream police

Now that I have the product downloaded and installed (with some issues as has been posted elsewhere) I thought others may like to join my post on their 1st impressions. Firstly I'm running P3D on a fast i7 with a GTX 1080 card with lots of ORBX add-ons and REX texture direct. I'm fortunate that the sim scenery wise looks absolutely stunning and for me this product has added to my overall enjoyment of the Sim. I think it's important to have realistic exceptions for this product as it's not going to change payware airports or default airports that have been altered (including those altered by ORBX sceneries I believe). However my home airport is YBCG which is a …

What is the default cloud texture size in the latest version of P3Dv3 ? 512 ? 256 ? Thx

Hello all, i recently bought Mytraffic 6 and installed it according to the guide. I used the how to that comes with it. I then removed it and installed it again using this guide : http://forum.simflight.com/topic/82657-installing-and-setting-up-mytraffic-6a-for-prepar3d/ both cases end up in random crashes mid flight, then eventually lead to P3D crashing at the splash screen. I have done everything right to my knowledge and even have disabled default AI, and military traffic. The error I get is a "BEX" error, or a "NTDLL.DLL" crash. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance as I'd really like to use this program which I have only …

When I'm flying, a very unrealistic airport kind of hurts my whole realism experience in the sim. And nearly every P3D/FSX streamer or youtuber, channels big or small, seem to have payware scenery for every flight. I only have one payware airport and it seems slightly unreasonable to spend the $20 to 30$ per airport on each flight. Now using REX helps with the unrealistic taxiways or runways at the airport but the buildings are a very big part in this and they are usually extremely blurry for me. Of course this is an investment in the hobby but is it often that people buy new sceneries?

Hi, first, sorry for my bad english, i'm Brazilian. I'm have a little problem with the pmdg's aircrafts (737 and 777) every flight that i made with more than 2 hours, for some reason, make parts of model and texture of my aircraft disappear, when i switch the view mode. Can someone help me? http://imgur.com/dEFdMdA

Hello captains, In P3D, I have no 3D night lighting. I use ORBX Global, Open LC Europe and England. Any ideas? The autogen buildings just sort of glow. I will attach some screenshots. I had 3D lights in FSX but not in P3D. Thanks, Freddie http://puu.sh/pzToX/feed642033.jpg http://puu.sh/pzTo0/d153017c0f.jpg http://puu.sh/pzTmL/b01ba551e0.jpg

Just posting here to find out if anyone is experiencing this issue. All my sceneries for the above are registered in the addon manager but yesterday upon landing at KPHX and today at KJFKv2 after long flights none of those airports displayed at all except for the jetways. Anyone knows why this happens? Thought of cheking here first, because I'm so mad that if go to their forum I may just say something unpolite. Regards

Does anyone know what P3D is using? I have not found a selection option, unlike FSX..

Hi All, Is there a way to get the night lighting to activate earlier for dusk/dawn transitions. There is a certain period of time where it can be super difficult to land due to no lighting. Any help is greatly appreciated. kind regards James

Hi everyone! I have an issue with the Taxi2Gate Istanbul LTBA airport scenery. I have what appears to be a transparent film on the ground, that's about half as high as a nose wheel... The LTBA scenery has two parts, the airport its self and the terrain surrounding it. When I disable the terrain in the scenery... part of p3d it disappears, but I obviously can't use the terrain and thats not that nice... Does anyone know how to deal with this problem? Thanks for any help!

I've done some research but have not been able to find what I'm looking for. I've downloaded Vatsim vPilot, but need to know the steps on how to integrate/install it into P3D. Thanks in advance

Tittle says it all :-) Looking forward to read from P3Dv3 users ( latest p3dv3 release ) of this Aerosoft Madeira release... Thx

This may already have been answered, but as an FSX user, I am not very familiar with the P3D layout. My question is: Is there a predictable search hierarchy for Gauges referenced in the panel.cfg file? In FSX, the search starts in the panel folder, and if not found, goes to the FSX\Gauges folder. Also, folders take precedence over cab files in the search. As I publish gauge fix updates for Carenado aircraft (PC12 V2 latest example), I tend to package the replacement gauges as xml files in folders that are placed in subfolders to the panel folder. In FSX, that works nicely.. the replacement xml file is used and merged with whatever other (b…

Hello, I have an extensive library of Orbx products, purchased for FSX over the years, with FTX Central 3 installed. I'm building a new PC, so its an ideal time time to change to P3D, which I intend to do - the new PC will be P3D only.. Could someone please advise if there is a simple method of installing all my Orbx products on the new PC with P3D? Thanks for your kind guidance in anticipation Andrew

Hi, I have a weird problem (which I suspect many others will have when they upgrade ) with the F1 GTN 750 GPS upgrading from 1.14 to 1.15 I've followed all the upgrade procedures correctly and it works fine in an aircraft where I have added the 750 as a stack (i.e. it's not inbuilt into the panel) however is unpowered for the 2 planes (the lancair and turbine duke from realairsimulations) where the 750 is built into the panel. have tried all combinations of reinstalling,installing using the aircraft configurator supplied by realairsimulations, rebooting windows etc etc but no luck. Strange thing is if I remove the 750 from the panel using the aircraft configu…

Hi All, Does anyone know or have an idea when P3D v4 is likely to be out, as I am ready to purchase V3.4 but if V4 is imminent I will wait as long as it is not too long. The reason I am asking this is in the past I did purchase V2.5 and not long afterwards it went to V3 and I would have to pay the full purchase price again. I realise you may not have this info for sure but if you think it could be a while before the next version I will go ahead and get V3.4. Thanks for any info/advice in advance. John Coles.
