<r>What I did was change the last else statement in receive_pirep.php to read like this:<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> Code:<br/> else {<br/> <br/> <B><s>[b]</s>$datenow=gmdate("Y-m-d");<e>[/b]</e></B><br/> <B><s>[b]</s>$timenow=gmdate("H:i:s");<e>[/b]</e></B><br/> <br/> /* Pilot found */<br/> $pilot_id = ...

<t>It's still not going to help because pilots don't always file pireps immediately after the flight and not all pilots will use system time, the pireps list is a mess as a result, been there, done that. You need to modify receive_pirep.php so it inserts the date/time from the server when the pirep ...

Go into %appdata%\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v2 and delete UISettings.xml like you're instructed to do every time you install a patch. The menus have changed but the old UISettings.xml is still defining the menu sizes according to what they needed to be prior to the patch.

<r>I never thought about it but maybe any line in the effect could trigger that warning if the 1st number was greater than the 2nd? How did you end up isolating the effect file that was causing the warning? I guess findstr /s /i /c:"80" *.fx might have been a better place to start, hope I didn't sen...

<t>I believe this has to do with an effect in your effects folder, this is reproducible as far back as FS9 (maybe further) and I just reproduced it in P3D2 by modifying an effect. The .fx can be opened with a txt editor, you'll see something like this:<br/> <br/> <br/> <br/> [Emitter.0]<br/> <br/> L...

<t>Sorry for the late reply, I was just noticing this myself while working on my night environment recently. I have a couple effects in use at an airport I'm working on, one of the effects loads and works fine from a saved flight, the other does not. The one that loads correctly differs from the oth...

<r>There's a script available at FSDeveloper that will attach things to any item named "Box01, Box02, Box03" etc. which might be helpful in your case. I think it's stickied at the top of the gmax/3DS max forum. I haven't used it because I'd have effects attached to every piece of geometry in my scen...

So if a person were to enable SSAA in the prepar3D.cfg would that mean you should also disable MSAA? (either/or?) Also I notice in mine that MSAA is set to 8 and FXAA is set to 1. Does that seem correct?



Thanks,

Jim
