Re: 3 projector setup fly Elise p3dv5 basic help needed!

Personally I would only run the 3 projectors. Having an extra monitor can cause issues down the track. What I have done is use an auto grid setup in view groups. https://www.prepar3d.com/SDKv3/LearningCenter/getting_started/view_system/display_configuration.html Set the grid to 180 adjust your edge ...

Re: 3 projector setup fly Elise p3dv5 basic help needed!

I use 5.3 and Fly Elise with 3 projectors. Works fine.
You will need to re-warp from scratch as the FSX warp is different.

Re: Show exit screen many times hen flying

Sounds like you have something that is sending a keystroke to P3D which makes it think you want to shut down.
Do you have fsuipc or something similar?

Re: PD3 v5 Professional Display Issue

When I go to the site I get the "Sorry, we no longer develop or sell SimVisuals" message. https://www.immersaview.com/simvisuals/ What video card do you have? I assume it would be an Nvidia card. In either case, roll back to an earlier driver. One other thing to check is that if your mothe...

Re: PD3 v5 Professional Display Issue

Was it working prior to an update?
I noticed that Simvisuals is no longer available. Is it still being updated to support the latest video card drivers?
Have you deleted the shaders?
Have you tried without Simvisuals running?
Have you done a clean install of your video card drivers?

Re: Behavior of a plane when fast & slow - Control Sensitivity

In the aircraft.cfg file you can alter the effectivity of a control surface. The values you are looking for are: elevator_effectiveness=1.0 aileron_effectiveness=1.0 rudder_effectiveness=1.0 .90 is 10% less 1.10 is 10% more http://www.prepar3d.com/SDK/SimObject%20Creation%20Kit/SimObject%20Container...

Re: Lighting effects missing on some outputs of the same card

I am having the same issue. Dynamic lighting only works on the center projector. The left and right projectors are dark. However, some of the better 3rd party sceneries don't exhibit this behavior. It's more noticeable at dawn and dusk.
Be nice to find a fix.

Re: What’s the Windows 10 FPS fix??

If you have more than one Sound card it can cause weird frame rate issues if not directly assigned in P3D.

Re: W&B Data of the Aircraft

The aircraft.cfg is only an initialization file. Its works in conjunction with the aircraft.air file which is a compiled file. The weights are stored within the application at runtime and written to the *.fxml file when you save the scenario. You can retrieve the W&B data through simconnect or f...

Re: add-on launching unwanted

<t>I am not familiar with the add-on, clearly, it is still launching from somewhere. Search the PC maybe there is more than one *.xml file and the one you edited is not the one that p3d is using. If you have fsuipc it might be launching from there as well.<br/> Or do you still have a gauge installed...

Re: Scenery does not change after adding Orbx

Personally, I don't use Vector with V5. Used it with 4.5.
Orbx Base just updates the underlying textures so you may not see much difference.
The better improvements come from the OpenLC and the country scenery eg. EU Germany, NA Rockies, but you need Base installed as a prerequisite.

Re: Black Loading screen

I noticed that you are using a non-English language setting in the OS. In previous versions of P3d, you need to have the OS language set to US English. In the past not having this set to US English had some strange effects on P3d. You could try this and see how you go. Here is a post for an earlier ...

Re: Moving AI planes kill framerate in P3D 5.3

Good to hear. To be honest I would have never have twigged on the sound issue except that a program (SimStarter NG) that I use to start P3d flagged that the sound preferences had changed from the master p3d.cfg. Changing them back to what I had fixed the issue. I only mentioned the sound issue as it...
