Was hoping to get the queen up and put a few miles on the clock as I'm off work till tuesday but hopefully this will help the teams understanding of V4 and speed up the process with the other birds. As much as I love the Queen I will spend most of my time in the 737.

Perhaps I'm old and lame but hoping to fly her tonight. ..

 

I hope so too :D 

as I refuse to go back to standard default scenery I have not been able to do a single proper flight with the 744 until now without OOM :D I'm so begging to jump in the Queen's cockpit and get her up :D haha

And that is why I am returning v4 and sticking with v3. Looks the same to me and runs worse so why not?

No rush. Without Vector, FSUIPC, EZdok, FS Real Time, there will be no takeoff for me anyways...

...but not unlike the professional flight crew up on the flight deck of an actual 747, you aren't only paying us to know when to release this product, you are paying us to know when NOT to release it...

Sooo...that's what the sim instructor meant last recurrent...:wink:

Seriously...I appreciate your predicament and applaud your decision to take the time to get it right.  Now that I've moved to the left seat of the 767 this is how I scratch my "Whale" itch.  QOTSII blew me away with its attention to detail and I look forward to its implementation in v4.

YMMV.

p3dv4 is a marked improvement in performance for me and will kill those pervasive oom errors that ruin my fun

It's ok, my new Win 10 setup with the P3dv4 activated and the ORbx Global, and LCs and trees all downloaded and installed has crashed. Yup.. I am unable to boot into my Win 10 P3dv4 system.  : (  I need to send a note to LM to reactivate my consumed license.. not sure what I need to do with Orbx.

 

I am not ready for another week or so!

Glad I could brighten your day and appreciate your deep concern for those of us that are having problems getting V4 to run correctly. 

Never had an Ohm in V3 with the new 747 and going from complex airport to complex airport. I am also open to suggestions on how to fix V4 so I can enjoy it but if you would rather reply with immature thoughts than go right ahead.

Well. Don't get me wrong. Do whatever you think is the best for you. But saying that v4 has nothing to offer is just plain ridiculous.

If it does not work for me than V4 has nothing to offer for me. Ok ready for another of your very informative replies.

It would be great if you could elaborate on what doesn't work, or how it runs "worse" than v3.  Saying "going back to v3 because it runs better" doesn't give us information to try give you suggestions on what to do.
