Rich. Are you using FTX Global? 

   If so, did You reinstall Global?

 

Cheers.

 

I am using global and I did not reinstall looks like its in place but wouldnt hurt to install it again actually - hmm

Has anyone noticed that you can leave skidmarks if you lock up the brakes? Although on duals you just get a single mark.

From what I understand if one updates scenery then Global textures are overwritten, so one must reinstall Global to "refresh" the textures. (No need to do the backup again).

Hi Buddy makes sense to me - throw in now doesn't hurt  :wink:

When you Install Orbx Global it will replace\ Add and Modify most of your Default 8,194ish files + pumping in a load more of course up and over 11000 in total but still leaving about 336ish Default Prepar3D files that stay there. When you run a Repair or Update the Scenery Component  it will return the 8000 + files back to default again,  Leaving you with 3000 + Orbx Global files and 8000 + Default files :smile:   A nice little mixture going on there

Thanks usually reinstall global got by me this time  :wink:

I do all 3 Mark - then I reinstall orbx libraries then fun ftxcentral - it does its thing all good - I did not have any payware airports loaded at the time fyi

 

OK thanks,  I have a bunch of addon airports so not sure what the impact will be.

Should be fine Mark but maybe someone who has a lot more than I had installed will chime in - I just happened to time this new P3D release with a new OS install - not planned thats for sure

Hi guys, personally I think the Vas leak is back. Before I was able to fly into FlyTampa Toronto in the 777 and NGX and now when I do it after updating to 3.4 I OOM. Anyone else getting vas issues? I've talked to a few people on Facebook and they said before they updated they were able to fly the 777 from KIAD to EGLL and now after updating they are OOM.

 

Thanks

Dammit!

I am sticking with P3D v3.3.5 for the moment. Everything is working fine, and I can always upgrade at a later date if I discover that there have been spectacular improvements to the water animation above 1000 feet :wink:

This update is a game changer for me-I fly in VR exclusively and with Flyinside the improvements are significant.

Hi there,

 

now that 3.4 is out and all the usual updates as well i upgraded. Did an unistall/install of client and content and i was good to go. However i had to reinstall Global and Vector and som enviromental textures such as REX and the simple sun mod.  Some of you had an impression of a much smoother sim. Well i do have the same impression. especially when it comes to lots of autogen buildings. I think that is smoother too. I tried everything with the PMDG NGX and i have barely seen drops below 25 FPS. Having taged "Force BKN to 7/8th" that will be the killer in very dense autogen situations. So in my cas i leave that one off.  It also seems that autogen now faster generates. Maybe it is an placebo effect but i dought it.

​I'm running 3.3.5 Professional now. If I just install the Client to get 3.4.9, I can't help but feeling that I am neutering the sim a little as the Scenery and Content and all the rest of the 9GB of P3D files (the Client is a measly 128MB or so of that) is still in a previous version. Fighting the urge to reformat the PC and start again. I know it is a hassle but short term pain for long term peace of mind simming. At least I know that for the next few months (until the next version release), I will have a true v3.4.9, as good as it gets, not half baked.

 

As it is, the Client update requires (if my understanding is correct) a reinstall of FTX Global and Vector, REX, updates to AS2016 and FSUIPC, Q400 etc.... So I'm thinking, just do it 'properly' first time.

 

Anyone else think like this  or is it just me? :wink:

If you look at the miniscule changes in the change log for scenery and content, the idea of re formatting the PC  just to get those 2 or 3 changes, in my opinion  would be like amputating your leg because you have a broken toenail.  :wink:
