Re: P3D Hotfix 5.1 causes DXGI Graphics card error

Here Bathemetry is enabled and clouds + user vehicle checked. No DXGI errors. Using a 3090 . With V5.1, before the HF, I used a 2080 Ti and also no DXGI errors. At this moment all sliders maxed out except AG density , both at very dense. 2x 4K as one wide frontview. What might be helping is that I u...

Re: ENHANCED TRUESKY FOR BEST CLOUDS GUIDE

TrueSky has its own Cloudrenderer which draws the clouds Volumetrically. SkyForce has no acces to that. Also other weather engines have not. SkyForce is licensed from Simul and is a seperate package which can be used in games and sims. There are settings to tweak, but in P3Dv5 we are only allowed to...

I have Dynamic Reflections turned off in the sim and find I still get aircraft reflections on some aircrafts...
FYI : TomatoShade is not compatible with V5. EnvShade however is.

Re: [SOLVED] White Water fix and TrueSky issues

Also make sure you are using the default Shaders as a base !
With modified Shaders this tweak will not work and you will still have the milky white fog.

Re: Is there a way to stretch one view completely over 2x 4K

By resetting the monitors I know am able to stretch the view over 2 monitors.
However a 4096x2160 image is spread over 2 monitors :
- 1x 3840x2160
- 1x 4048x2160 ( act as bezelcorrection )

I always used my 2080 Ti in NVSURROUND with 2x 4K. Switched to a 3090 card to find out that NVsurround will not work correctly. After a lot of help from others it turned out that the Panasonic HDMI 2.1 controllers are having issues. So I am looking for a workaround. To mimic the bezelcorrection I ca...
