Contoured runways

If LM could create contoured runways following the lay of the land, and eliminate the flat rectangular platforms around airfields then it would surely eliminate the one positive in favour of other simulators, and establish P3D as the primary sim platform.
Is there any chance of this in the future?

FSLabs a320

Has anyone reported problems with the FSLa320? I have installed, reinstalled, with and without AV. I have started and restarted. I do not have any camera add-ons. The add-on loads, and the standby ISDG also lights up: then the ISDG turns off, there are some winding down sounds and I am left with not...

Re: Huge chronic Loading problem with v4.2

No. Would that mean I would have to uninstall and reinstall every add-on aircraft to test?

But I have reinstalled 4.1, but if I re-try 4.2 can I just install the 4.2 Client? I have never been quite clear as to what the Content and its Cabs contain.

Huge chronic Loading problem with v4.2

I can load any aircraft, but usually a default, it initially hesitates as it circles in the scenario window but comes up OK with flight deck alive, then the trouble starts.  Each time I try an action the loading circle runs, then the action happens, but the same thing after every action.  In outside...

Re: Calculate Route not implemented on P3D v4

This is sufficiently frustrating that I think LM should issue an immediate hotfix. It is clear that LM was unaware, and had to have it pointed out to them. To manually create a route by moving the line to a waypoint or intersection is hard enough, but to have to use an external flightpanner then phy...

CYUL no runway lighting

I use the default CYUL airport, and have been practicing with the Majestic q400. Neither here nor at Newark (the other tutorial airport, still the default, is there any HIAL or PAPI lighting.

Have I missed a setup option or is it a known bug. If either, how to resolve please.

Installing Content

When I updated to 3.2 I followed advice and only installed the Client portion. Now it would seem to get GSX to work I need to uninstall and then install the Content portion, and then install GSX. If I was to leave all of the SimObjects/Aircraft and specific aircraft folders in the Main Folder would ...

Re: VAS leak, a cloud problem? [P3D v3]

It would be nice to get a response from the LM experts. I deliberately did a 12hr flight from HK to Heathrow in real time. Part way through I introduced real weather and VAS jumped, and on final approach to Heathrow it was 3.9 - and on roll out the OOM came. Sure the scenario just would not have sur...

VAS Leakage not totally cured

I have just completed a 12hr flight from Hong Kong VHHH to London Heathrow. I let the computer run at real time over the flight, using a PMDG 777 - one of the heaviest VAS users in the hangar. The flight was over FTX Global and used a weather theme of clear weather with high stratus. Flying west I w...

Re: P3D V3 Long loading time/ crash

There is obviously a number of reasons why this happens, and I only know the cause of my startup crash. The culprit is the 'q' button used to mute the sound while flying. Last night I saved a flight, which I wanted to continue today. I saved it with the Q button ON. This meant when the sim tried to ...

Re: A BIG thankyou LM for v3

I agree: V3 is superb and a huge step forward in performance and without the OOMs, VAS management has made the sim about as good as a 64bit version might be. I added some Megascenery (located outside the flightsim) to the Scenery Library, and again the sim works flawlessly. But I am getting a Conten...

Re: All I can say is...

And make sure that you do not have the Sound muted. This is a serious problem, as most of the switch problems relate to the sim not being able to identify a sound card. You can use the Q key in flight, but turn it off before shutting down. Also the P3D3 version of the PMDG 737 installed flawlessly. ...

Southern Hemisphere sun setting in the east

I am conducting a flight from Brisbane to Melbourne - a generally southeasterly course. The P3v3 graphics are superb, and the PMDG 737NGX is behaving well. All seemed really good, until it dawned (sic) on me that the sun was setting in the east. I suspect a problem is deep inside the basic spherical...

Traffic reverts to zero

I set Traffic to say, Airlines 10%, GA 5%, return to sim and they have reverted to zero.

I set Traffic in the appdata....cfg, start sim, and find settings have reverted to zero.

I have My Traffic 6, but I can't underestand this at all.

Can anyone assist me with this frustrating problem, please.....
