Re: P3D uninstalls itself after download/Doesn't load

You might see if you can find a reliable computer shop in your area. You could ask them what it would cost to upgrade your video card to one with 4 or 8 gigs of ram. The interesting thing about upgrading old computers is that its possible to find old hardware that is better than your current hard wa...

Re: P3D uninstalls itself after download/Doesn't load

If P3D were uninstalling itself completely from your E drive you would have to do a fresh installation of the entire program, then start the program running, and then start a flight. Normally, after a crash to desktop all you have to do to restart the program is click on the P3D icon on your desktop...

Re: Is there any scenery library editors?

I read somewhere a while ago that one of the advantages of Scenery Library editors was that you could restrict scenery from loading which would make the loading go faster. It currently take s 8 minutes and 10 seconds to load P3D6. I unclicked Europe, Asia and Africa, but it only save about 10 second...

Re: Error with the website, you need to optimize

Recently I was trying to load the P3D web site while I had P3D6, Volanta and Active Sky running in the background. On that occasion I took 10 or 20 seconds to load. Otherwise it loads in a few seconds. My internet connection speed is about 300 mbs

Re: Prepa3dv6 color very strong

I have looked at a lot of screenshots and videos of MSFS, and to me they look great, but are not particularly realistic looking. Since the look can be manipulated, a lot of the unrealism is probably what simmers prefer. With P3D6 I can get it to look like what I think is more realistic. That's one o...

Re: Error with the website, you need to optimize

It might be helpful to know where there is a problem geographically. I can only add that I am in the northwest US and it generally loads within a few seconds.

Re: Prepa3dv6 color very strong

Here's how I do it, which I guess is the same for everybody. You have to be in windowed mode on the screen. I press alt and enter to get there. Once in windowed mode at the top of the screen click on options then go down and click on live graphics settings. From there you should be able to reach the...

Re: OZx Grumman Goose Legandary Freeware Plane Returns!

I loaded it into P3D6. It works and looks great! Amazing that it started in FSX, but his version interior and exterior looks much better.
