April 12, 201313 yr Author Bummer on the QW 75... The download for Airbus X states that P3D is part of the installler, so I guess we can answer that question. Bryan Ott
April 12, 201313 yr The download for Airbus X states that P3D is part of the installler, so I guess we can answer that question Yes, I have that one. It includes an installer P3D-aware :-) Also runs great on this sim ;-) Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)
April 13, 201313 yr Hey guys, Seriously 99.9% from putting my credit card details into the prepared!. One thing though. On every update they release for the program, Do you have to buy it again? Regards Michael Atherton
April 13, 201313 yr Hey guys, Seriously 99.9% from putting my credit card details into the prepared!. One thing though. On every update they release for the program, Do you have to buy it again? all updates before 2.0 are free
April 13, 201313 yr OK, So do you guys think i'm better waiting to 2.0? buy it now, 2.0 will release around the month of "never" :lol:
April 13, 201313 yr I took the plunge as well. Welcome !!! ;-) Just a few quick notes from my own experience... 1) Do yourself a favour and buy the excellent "Estonian Migration Tool" - EMT. Using EMT I was able to get a few old great add-ons I had from my FSX times running beautifully in P3D :-) When I installed P3D there was no trace of FSX on my system. I tookcare to delete any footprints of history... I keep the Virtual FSX install active all of the time except when installing stuff that is P3D-aware, like AS2012 SP2 or the iFly 737 NG for P3D, the Aerosoft DR-400 and Airbus X Extended. 2) After many experimentation with my graphic settings I found that the best combination is what you may find depicted in the attached pictures. I use Nvidia Inspector (v 1.9.7.1) and my present Nvidia drivers are 314.22 WHQL. I set through NI: - AI Mode: Override Any Application Setting - AI Setting: 4xS [Combined: 1x2 SS + 2x MS (D3D only)] - AI TS: 2x Sparse Grid Supersampling - Nvidia Predefined FXAA Usage: Disallowed - Anisotropic Filtering mode: User-defined / Off - AF Setting: 16x - Texture filtering (all three entries): Off - Texture filtering LOD bias: 0.000 - Texture filtering Negative LOD bias: Clamp - Texture filtering quality: High quality - Texture filtering trilinear opt: Off - Maximum pre-rendered frames: 1 - Multi-display: Single display performance mode - Power management mode: Prefer maximum performance - Vertical Sync: Use the 3D application setting I have FPS at unlimited in the game, AF at trilinear (but this will have no effect) and AA not selected.

April 13, 201313 yr Thanks guys, I went ahead and bought all the Prepar3D licenses for all my add-ons and the converter tool. Just waiting for some money to come through, then I'll be buying PREPAR. Regards Michael Atherton
April 13, 201313 yr Author Well without running any addons at all, I already received a crash/fatal error. My flight stick settings are all kinds of jacked up as well. Upon entering the sim, I release the parking brake, and the aircraft (doesn't matter which one) kicks off full-throttle and does donuts on the runway. I have to constantly go back and forth into the settings panel to recalibrate them. Suffice to say, I'm none too impressed thus far. I'll keep kicking around in it though.

April 14, 201313 yr Hmmm, sorry to know about that :-( I'm not at home right now, but I'll give a look at your log when I can. If you're on Win 7 64 bit, have you installed this MS fix? MicrosoftFixit50496.msi ?

April 21, 201313 yr The one thing that annoys me the absolute most about FSX is how autogen buildings and objects just pop up across the scenery as you are flying low and fast (example - 737 doing 250 at 2000 ft). That is the single thing that most detracts from the sense of realism. Do you still get those popups in P3D? Another question - does FSUIPC work with P3D? Vic
April 21, 201313 yr @foibles: 1) Yes, depending on your LOD settings, but so does my other sim - Dcs World, and x-plane10, etc... 2) Yes, FSUIPC has a P3D-aware instraller :-) Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)
