When I lock camera on a ground location or an entity, camera bank is set to 0, and I'm unable to change it by any means. I set bank to 180, lock the target and bank sets to 0. As soon as ...

I'm passing Target LLA as the end point's LLA in DarwLine function. There's a function OnCustomRender available in the plugin, yes. But the line stops tracking the m...

Re: Unable to find some Variables in documentation

So, I used CustomPDKObjects to draw a line to represent laser beam. But there's a tiny problem. P3D stops rendering the line correctly when I switch views. I'm drawing the line between user Aircraft and the currently selected target, using targeting pod plugin. When I'm in targeting pod view, the li...

Re: Unable to find some Variables in documentation

Hello Clifton, I have followed your instructions and now I am on the right track. While I was going through CustomPDKObjects, I got another question. It was not relevant to Laser designation so I have posted it separately. Please take a look at this. https://www.prepar3d.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=63...

Hello, I'm trying to figure out an issue related to Variables that P3D uses. In the Scaleform samples provided with the SDK, there are some variables used for different purposes (I'm not getting into details of functionality). i.e. Prepar3D.VarSet("K:ToggleDesignator", "number", ...

Re: SimObjects and Jetways flicker in v5

I reported the same issue some time ago. On V4.5 Hotfix 2. No update from LM on this. The change log of V5 said this issue has been fixed. I haven't installed V5 yet, but it seems the issue still persists. Here's the link for my post along with video that I posted. https://www.prepar3d.com/forum/vie...
