Shaking in P3D

[Brandon Binder 2]

Hi all,

I originally posted in the PMDG forum thinking that it was a 777,747 and NGX specific problem, but it happens at all airports, default or scenery. Did a full reinstall, no addons, default F-18 shakes like mad. As you can add 1+1, as the wingspean gets larger, the shaking up and down becomes more evident. Its driving me bonkers.

Running V3.4.22.19868

 

All the best,

Hello Brandon

1) What are your System Specs ? 

2) Did you reinstall Prepar3D because of this Issue ?  

3) Can you remember when this began, Maybe after Installing an Add On ?  Windows update ? USB\Graphics driver update ? 

4) From what i understand from your previous post this is happening with all Aircraft and Airports yes ? 

5) When you Uninstalled Prepar3D did you delete all 4 Generated folders before you reinstalled again ?

1) My system specs are posted as photos from above.

2) Yes, reinstalling addons now. Nothing seemed to help.

3) Its happened for quite some time now, only realized it when I started looking closely after wondering "Why is the planes main gear shaking while the engines are on?"

4) Yes, default airports & aircraft

5) Yes.

Does it do this in flight? I have been trying to fix this for months and nothing works. I hope we can both find solutions. It really ruins the flight experience.

May I ask, what camera add-ons are you using?

Ezdok? Chaseplane? Other?

No, its fine in flight.

It appears to stop when the parking break is applied!

None, default views. An uneducated guess is that for some reason, the plane thinks its on a dirt surface but its actually on a concrete runway... Strange indeed!

[RichieFly 728]

Yes. Could be as you say. 

Have you tried other airports?

I sometimes have unexpected issues when taxiing at payware airports; I'll suddenly crash the aircraft by just taxiing along...like I've hit something where nothing is (seen.)

Looks as if the issue is 7 years old!!

That can be easily fixed by turning off crash detection.

[RichieFly 728]

True.

I have collisions turned off (one too many ended flights being done in by a baggage cart or tug).

Just liked to know when I've landed too hard.

Hello Brandon,

I understand this is a long shot,  But I notice form your Specs you are using a Generic Monitor driver,  Download and Install the correct driver for your Monitor,  Confirm this has been successful,  Launch Prepar3D and test 

-----------

Plug out all USB Devices Including Wifi dongles and Extra Monitors  (except keyboard and mouse)  Launch Prepar3D and test 

----------

Have tried Reinstalling\Updating your Graphics Driver Insuring you Tick the box for "Perform a Clean Installation" during the process ?

Alternatively you can use a driver cleaning utility to Uninstall & Reinstall your driver,  Something like DDU Driver Display Uninstaller

Hello Brandon, and everyone

I have the same problem as you. T

he P3DV4.5 image shakes when I start the engines and stops when I cut the engines.

Did you find the solution yet?

There an easy solution.  If you have Chaseplane, turn the Gimbol option on for your external views.  It stops the shaking.  The camera views are fixed to the axes of the aircraft, so if the aircraft vibrates due to engine vibration, so will your camera view.  Switching the Gimbol option 'on' detaches the view from aircraft axis rotation
