Re: Landing Lights

I need to clarify that I was talking about the landing and other lights on the Prosim737 aircraft. I have a B737-800 cockpit and I fly almost exclusively the Prosim737. The lights were working in P3Dv4.5 but when I switched to 5.3 I never got them to work.

Re: Landing Lights

No, I never did. I finally decided to make the switch to MSFS2020 and I have the same problem but I think that's something they are still working on. They don't have a true working model for MSFS yet so a lot of things aren't working correctly but hopefully Prosim will be coming out with one in the ...

Re: RTX 3080 running out of memory

Well, I did all the things suggested here plus upgraded to an RTX 3090 TI 24gb and a Corsair RM2000x psu. Wow! What a difference. No oom issues and smooth flying in Orbx True Earth Great Britain and dense add-on airports. Had to stretch my budget to the limit but it was so worth it. Probably won't b...

ATC Sound

In P3Dv5.3 when atc starts talking the volume on other sounds gets considerably lower. When atc finishes it sometimes takes several seconds for the sounds to come back up. Is this a typical problem with P3D5? Would it help the problem if I use a separate sound system for atc. I'm using a Sound Blast...

Re: Landing Lights

I rolled back to Version: 512.77 and the black boxes are gone but I still have no lights on my aircraft. Rolling back also fixed a problem I had with one of my monitors loosing the signal after about 30 minutes. I just wiped out my savings and upgraded to an RTX 3090 TI 24gb. Wow! No more out of mem...

Landing Lights

I have been unable to get the landing lights to work on my prosim737 aircraft since I switched form P3Dv4.5 to P3Dv5.3. The lights are not visible from the cockpit or on the outside view. The Navigation and strobe lights don't work either. Also, on the UT AI planes the lights appear as black squares...

Re: RTX 3080 running out of memory

Why do I need to de-activate the Client? What does that accomplish?

When you replaced your GTX 1080 with an RTX 3080, have you rebuilt the Prepar3D.cfg?

Michel
No, how do I do that?

Re: RTX 3080 running out of memory

I tried going to a low resolution airport, FsDreamteam KDFW and I'm getting VRAM 5.1/9.1 so I don't know why True Earth Scenery is lowering the VRAM available.

RTX 3080 running out of memory

I have all the Orbx True Earth sceneries including Florida and I 'm having this problem with several of them. I replaced my GTX 1080 with an RTX 3080 thinking that it would solve my memory problems. I move my aircraft to LatinVR KMIA and memory usage shows I am using 7.4 out of 7.7gb of Graphics Car...

Views going dark

I have a homebuilt cockpit based on the Prosim737. I was running P3dV5 on the main computer and P3Dv4 on a second computer for the left and right views. I purchased a second copy of P3Dv5 hoping it would run a little more smoothly and the graphics would be closer to the same. I was also hoping to ge...

Re: Running P3D on 2 computers

If I purchase P3D, isn't there a certain time period in which they will allow me to upgrade for free if they come out with a new version?

Running P3D on 2 computers

I'm running two copies of P3D on two computers. The second is for the left and right window views in my home built cockpit. The main computer is running P3Dv5.3 Professional, the second is P3Dv4.5 Professional. I use Wideview to sync the two instances of P3D but I am unable to get WideTraffic to syn...

Gate Assignment

Is there a way to choose your arrival gate in advance so that atc will assign that gate when I land and not allow ai aircraft to occupy that gate?

P3Dv5.3 stops working

I actually brought this problem up in a recent post about winter texture not showing but I solved that and I need to begin a new post about this problem. I was flying from KDEN to KSLC and about 90nm from slc I got a message that P3D had stopped working and would shut down. I loaded an Autosaved fli...
