Completely enhances your P3D experience (graphics, shadows): http://1coder.ru/PTA/ It's not compatible (and will not be) with P3Dv4, that's why the OP came around.

June 4, 20179 yr I was pretty sure it did not mean Parent Teacher Advisory...but otherwise I had no idea. Thanks for posting and advising me, I had no idea...this community is outstanding how it informs folks. Bryan Wallis aka "fltsimguy" Maple Bay, British Columbia Near CAM3

Cheers, Ed I only got into P3D V3 last year in April. I have a nice setup and everything is working great so not worried about tweaking. But I will take a look into this now, thanks.

June 4, 20179 yr I meant a year ago April, sorry. However, just had a quick look, holly molly, this looks interesting. Bryan Wallis aka "fltsimguy" Maple Bay, British Columbia Near CAM3
June 4, 20179 yr It seems to work fine and does enhance the default P3Dv4 environment. I need to experiment more with it, but I'm initially pleased with the results. I've imported Adam's 21_11 preset....looks terrific, but you'll have to adjust the HDR brightness in P3Dv4 to a value higher than Adam recommends for his P3Dv3 preset. Wayne KlocknerUnited Virtual
June 4, 20179 yr Tried Knossos' dynamic preset (minus the tweaks not yet implemented in the V4 converter) and it seems to work quite nicely. One thing I want to emphasize that the developer stated. Even though the utility backs up your P3d V4 Shader source folder, make a separate backup of it and put it in a safe location just to be safe.
June 4, 20179 yr Hope to see some screenshots soon:-) This is awesome news, I'm downloading this right now. Yippie!
June 4, 20179 yr Is this like a reshade tweak for P3D? Yes, some screenshots of this PTA would be great. I heard of this before but never actually tried it.
