I'm currently testing a few things out, which means I went from OpusFSI back to EZDoc for a spell. However, there's still some "OpusFSI" entries when right clicking and checking out the view menu. How do you clean up / remove these sort of entries?

Hey Guys, Before I get blasted that our beloved P3D isn't a game , can't be had fun with, and I must only run it while wearing a lab coat during work hours, I have a question I've never seen discussed. Has anyone successfully streamed P3D using the Steam Link and In-Home Streaming? I've got my desktop upstairs with my full hotas setup, rudder pedals, 34" widescreen etc, all great stuff... But sometimes I simply don't want to be isolated in my office upstairs. I picked up a new 65" 4K HDR TV for downstairs (wife was THRILLED when she got home and saw that on the wall :wub: ) and have been enjoying all my other sims (flying/racing) and general games via the Ste…

I have made numerous "real" buildings for use with FS9 scenery. If it is possible to re-use these in P3D, perhaps after some adaptation (I have no idea if this is actually possible) then if someone is thinking of making an airport or airfield that I have already made for FS9 and wants to use my buildings email me at [email protected] I will not be following this in the forum, but it applies also to FSX, and X plane too.

I just installed Pro Atc and came across this error. I searched everywhere, but dont see a solution. Hope this is the right section to post this in.

I try to keep my simulator clean, meaning, if the manufacturer says that this isn't compatible with P3D V3.3, then I am not going to purchase it. I have been quite comfortable with this approach (no pun intended) and I've never had a CTD / OOM crash *knock on wood* since I first started simming about a year ago. However, the mainstream developer community's bias to North American and European airports (yes, yes, I know, OMDB, YSSY) has gotten me into a repetitive rut. Now that tropical sim and latin vfr have some products on sale, it would be the perfect opportunity to get this scenery. Unfortunately for me (I'm sure many would back me on this), these airports aren't …

Hello everyone, I've just downloaded some skins for the a2a comanche and wondered how I would pronounce the call sign for VH-DOE in the UK on vatsim? I have previously been using registrations like G-ASGF which would be annunciated "Golf Alpha Sierra Golf Foxtrot" until ATC shorten it, but is this the same with the aforemtioned reg? Many thanks in advance, Kieran

Sorry to ask this, but... What is the most up to date advice on Nividia Inspector settings now we're on 3.3 etc. I have shimmering quite badly and I'm trying to get rid of it. I have the following I5 4690 8.00 Gb ddr3 gtx 780 windows 10 Thanks Jim Harris

Hi folks. In my sim I currently have two Saitek Cessna yokes, which work great. I am, however, trying to get the sensitivity dialed in for the A2A Cessna, which many Saitek yoke owners know has a tendency to be a bit too docile in cruise flight but too sensitive in the flare at landing. I've found plenty of advice online for how to modify the sensitivity and null zone, but my question is this: given that I run P3D, FSUIPC, and SPAD.neXt, what is the best place to manage the calibration? All three have the ability to do so. Thanks for any advice, BFG

Ok, bought it, used it, hated it, want it to go away. Interestingly, there does not appear to be a way to uninstall FTX Global in a P3D installation? In fact, if you use FTX Central, there is no way to even deactivate FTX Global once it's already activated? Starting to really really regret everything about the Orbx Global Disaster.

Advise a check on ORBX forums re new library update, users are reporting blurries, I am definitely not installing until resolved. Echofox

Ok installed fine aircraft show up but never move - anyone who has a solution for this would luv to hear it - I must be missing something - every version of P3D I have never had moving UT2 traffic - thanks

Hi All, Ever since applying the hotfix to P3Dv3.3.3 I cannot "multitask" anymore. In v3.3.3 it was possible to have, for example, Internet Explorer and Notepad running besides P3D and type messages in Notepad, but after applying the hotfix this no longer is possible. While, for example, typing a message in Notepad P3D every few seconds is getting the focus again making it impossible to do something else in other running tasks. Can there be something in P3Ds settings that might have unintentionally been changed? If so, can you give me a hint as to what this may have been? If this phenomenon came hardcoded with the hotfix, would a return to v3.3.3 be possible by just u…

Bonjour, P3D V3.3 GTX780 The only way to get rid of microstutter particulary when panning around as I do not have a 30hz capable monitor is to use RadeonPro to limit FPS. In NVI the framerate limiter doesn't work and I do not undestand why. I cannot use the internal limiter as it seems to be bugged. Example: 1 Situation LFPO on ground, 737NGX, with the internal frame rate limiter set to unlimited my FPS is 40. 2 If I set the internal limiter to 60 then the FPS drop down to 28 ! Strange, One would expect that it remains to 40... But no. Is there a logical explanation to that behavior? Does anybody know a solution other than a 30hz monitor or RadeonPro tool…

He all, I am having an issue with my textures after I record with shadow play and upload them to YouTube after editing on Windows Movie Maker. My Specs, at i7,GTX 970,16 GB Ram, Nividia set to Full Dynamic Range with HDR lighting off I believe. I have to many addons to name... Here is my channel if any of you want to watch my videos and give me suggestions if it keeps occurring It happens mainly in the PMDG 777 at during night flight. The cockcpit comes up with dark but cadarac like textures.... I have deleted the ones that were doing an attempting to see if it was windows movie maker causing the issue. If anyone has ever had the same thing happen, let me …

Hey guys. I have a multi monitor setup. I usually only fly on a single screen, and I use the other to show charts etc. However, when I do fly with Nvidia Surround, I miss being able to use my Android tablet for something usefull. The perfect thing would have been to have Aivlasoft EFB on it, but I dont think that works on android. Do you have any good suggestions what app I can use on my android device in relation to flight simming?

Hi! I have been using EzDok for years, and I'm quite comfortable with it. I'm currently running p3d v3.2.3 on a win10 64 bits. EzDok has been acting up lately; the key commands for view changing stop working. Trying xplane 10 and the Xcamera addon, I see possibilities for camera controll that I dont think is available in EzDok. That brings me to OpusFSI, and the camera control part of it. I tried searching on youtube for some reviews or comparisons to ezdok, but found very little. If you have experience with both EzDok and OpusFSI, can you please share your thoughts about how they compare to eachother? Is Opus the better choice? What functionality does Opus bring to …

I installed p3d in the C drive. What is the best course of action to correct this as I already installed Orbx Vectors and Base as well as REX and PMDG? I know I should have made a new drive for the install.

I have a problem at the moment that is driving me nuts. ATC is selecting the wrong runway for take off or landing at some of my airports. For example, I have the wind direction set to 270 degrees, but ATC is informing me that the active runway is 08 (not 26). This is happening at more than one airport. It has nohing whatsoever to do with the AFD files, because it has worked fine with the same AFD files in the past. Having thought about it, I suspect that this problem only appeared when I upgraded to P3D v3. It worked absolutely fine with P3D v2 and FSX. Any ideas?

Now that we have heard a lot of some problems with new v3.3 (VAS consumption, broken sceneries, which will be fixed soon), it would be nice to hear how v3.3 actually compares to v3.2. Does it "feel" smoother? Are there visible improvements, such as reduction of ground blurries with photo scenery)? Are the cloud and cockpit shadows still going on/off depending on time and camera viewing angle as in v3.2?

When I start p3d I get a message that p3d is trying to run the above program (asn). If I answer yes and then look for it in task manager it's not there. How do i make sure it runs on core 1 right from the start ? Thanks

Check this out. Wow!! http://simmershome.de/rostock-lage-airport/

Hello! I was testing X-Plane 10 and uninstalled P3D at all. Now with my new GTX 1070 i want to test P3D again... I have now installed P3D 3.2, REX, and PMDG NGX only. I wonder what settings do you recommend me in game and if i need to use Nvidia Inspector or no...

Today I learned that uninstalling Aerosoft Split X version 1.41 using the included uninstaller will corrupt the list of installed programs in Windows leaving you with a list where only a fraction of your installed programs will show up. I'm still hoping to find a way to rebuild the list but right now it doesn't look very promising leaving me in a situation where I might end up having to do a complete reinstall on my computer including Windows and thus P3D including all my addons. I'm not sure if this is only true for version 1.41 or also for version 1.42. The most current version is 1.43. Also I'm using Windows 10 and I'm not sure if this issue only shows itself o…

I have been running P3DV3 since it came out in March without issues, but have now decided to install the latest version which I believe is V3.3 I Intend to install only the client as set out in the pinned topic. I haven't installed V3.1 or V3.2. Does V3.3 include everything, or do I need to install the interim versions?
