Hello Startour. Launch Prepar3D go to Options > Application > Error Reporting

Hey guys
I am very sorry that I have not responded to this post for some time, but the truth is that my PC has not worked so it has been reinstalling windows.

So here yesterday I wanted to activate my P3D v4 simulator but I could not, this message always comes: Errors: No remaining activations. Activations run out when Prepar3D is not properly uninstalled. and is then installed again. Contact Licensing@Prepar3d.com with this error and your license ID: (5013)

I have contacted that email address but have not received an answer, I think it is annoying that it is not easier to get in touch with Prepar3D.🤬

So I would hear if there are any of you who can help me ???

 

Best Regards Startour

Hello sir, thank you very much for your reply, I appreciate your reply so quickly.Of course, they do not answer when it's weekend holidays days 😊👍 You have to thank you for clarifying how to uninstall P3D v4 and the two-tier that belongs to YT. I'm still trying to find P3D v4 because it's much more different than FSX & FSX: SE.

But many times again thanks for your help and your fast return

 

Best Regards Startour

Absolutely no problem and I am positive Elaine was not offended. Believe me, she and I have both been called much worse!

Absolut ikke noget problem, og jeg er positiv Elaine var ikke fornærmet. Tro mig, hun og jeg er begge blevet kaldt meget værre!

Hey vgbaron and poppet,

I have a question about PFPX worked with P3D v4, If yes, how do I install it. I have PFPX on DVD so I guess I just install it as I usually ??? 

But I can also see that there have been a couple of hotfixes to PFPX, how are the installers ???

Hey there,

I have a little problem with my P3D v4. The problem is it lags every time I fly under 10.000ft, and some times it lags where I fly over 10.000 ft. My fps is between 20 and 40 but sometimes it can fall to 4 or 7 fps. It lags most when I fly over cities or landscapes. And my GPU temperture has a temperature of 82 C^o degrees.

*My computer

Windows 10 Home

Each system is different and what you see depends a lot on where and how you fly. 

 

Just some things you can try

 

Turn FXAA off

use 4xMSAA

Texture resolution - 1024x1024

Vsync off  Triple Buffer off - FPS lock at 24 or 30

Fly like that for a while and see how it looks to you - then adjust your various settings to give you the SMOOTHEST operation at the LOWEST FPS setting.

If using weather add ons - use fewer cloud levels.

Okay, I would like to edit my settings after your guide. But what is FXAA, MSAA, Vsync and Triple Buffer to???

[vgbaron 3,496]

Not sure I understand your question but a browse through this - it may explain some.

http://www.prepar3d.com/SDKv4/LearningCenter.php

Those settings are located in your options menu in P3D - you would change them there.

I suggest changing one at a time and flying for a bit to see how the affect your sim. Typically the FXAA setting "softens" the edges of gauges, etc - sometimes making them difficult to read but some people like it that way.

Ikke sikker på, jeg forstår dit spørgsmål, men en gennemgang gennem dette - det kan forklare nogle.

http://www.prepar3d.com/SDKv4/LearningCenter.php

Disse indstillinger findes i din valgmenu i P3D - du vil ændre dem der.

Jeg foreslår at ændre en ad gangen og flyve lidt for at se, hvordan den påvirker din sim. Typisk gør FXAA-indstillingen "blødgør" målernes kanter osv. - nogle gange gør dem vanskelige at læse, men nogle mennesker kan lide det på den måde.

Vic

You have understood my question, so I'd take a look at it today and I'll give you answers when I've got it fixed. Thank you for the help we are talking about during the weekend.
