Patriot3810

I don't fly the other sim because it only has 2 sliders for the flight models behavior, and I don't like streaming scenery. P3d and x-plane have 100's that control each plane. That's why that other sim will never be certified as a study level aircraft. Like others have said, The other sim controls the flight models, While P3d, The planes control the flight models. Visuals are useless to me.I want behavior more like the real aircraft. Some of you seem to have a real problem with the ones that enjoy there platform of choice. Why aren't you out flying your such wonderful sim? Don't forget your Xbox Controller.

I am the one that tested the a330 as well, I did a scratch install with the registry option and something is very wrong, I was getting 7fps, the efb had a white screen, it was just a mess for me, I suspect real light has something to do with it. I installed the 787 with the flight one app, The plane was normal for me, accept the screens were black. I was able to pop out each panel and program a flight no problem. I also tried switching the screens to HD with no luck. It's like it's missing fonts or they were not installed correctly. We know aerosoft will not fix the busses, But if QW could fix the screens, it would be a working aircraft. I shut down the engines, apu worked fine, all other lighting was fine, Engine startup was fine for me from cold and dark. Not sure why someone else had issues starting the engines, But Someone else said he almost had the a330 working. Even without developer support, I am sure we will find workarounds for alot of these add-ons. I don't have any previous p3d versions installed. I will most likely keep trying addon and go back to using 5.4 until we hear from everyone what the future holds.

Everyone needs to keep in mind, That it's only been 1 day since p3d v6 release, And it's also a holiday in the U.S. For the developers that may not have responded, i would be patient.

I jumped in the 777, 747, 737 ngxu and just did a quick 5-10 minutes in the air, no extensive testing with the fmc. no errors though.

yes, All pmdg planes work.

All Latin vfr airports from p3d v3 forward work in p3d v6. I am gonna check a few more.

It might now, using the symbolic link suggested, But i am not trying it again. The textures were a disaster and i was getting 7 fps, For some reason real light that's required to install wouldn't with the Installer. It might now.

Did you guys install the fsdreamteam gsx and airports the same way as the planes? I was also going to give flight beams airports a try, Then I am set until Active sky comes out with it's new product. I believe it's a new purchase for active sky when it's released, and well deserved. Active sky has been dumped and left for dead the past few years.

i used the pmdg installers with just the registry that is listed above. I haven't had time yet to test things extensively, But I have the v6 almost maxed out with 60fps locked. I plan on doing a flight in the 777-200 tonight.

Does this work if p3d v5 is not installed? I am only using the registry fix. I assume you mean mklink /J no quotes C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v5 then C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v6 no quotes all in command prompt as admin. I have never created a symbolic link. I kinda feel stupid.

Using the registry trick, it was posted earlier here in the forums.

Here we go again, At least Lockheed didn't dump the community like microsoft did with fsx.

I can also confirm the pmdg 737 ngxu and add-on, 747-400 747-8 777-200 777-300 all work. Don't attempt aerosoft planes. I tried the a330 and it crashed p3d v6 and the textures are messed up, as well as a white efb in the plane. What i am doing is saving a system restore on my boot drive, and my p3d drive. trying an add-on with the registry trick. Then see if it works. If it doesn't i restore my drives to previous state so far. I am going to try the QW 787 next.

MONEY, And if you guys don't like p3d, why are you here. You guys are the one that started on p3d. Same trolls everytime, This is why i stay away from forums, I came in here to have positive things to say about p3d v6, and here you come trashing the simulator. It is really getting old. Ray i apologize for being rude, I was just trying to enjoy myself. This was an exciting time for alot of us.

I could really careless what you think about p3d v6, as far as i am concerned, MSFS is total garbage.
