New to P3D- library question

Featured Replies

Hi Everyone

I am very new to P3D and have recently made the switch from FSX to P3DV4.1.

I seem to have a good install and have added all my FTX scenery ad airports plus my FSDT and Flight beam airports.  My question is in FSX i used to have to deactivate sceneries in my scenery library so it didn't OOM, but since I am now in a 64 bit environment do i still need to do this or does it still remain best practice to deactivate sceneries I am not currently using?

Many thanks

I keep mine all activated, have not seen a reason for the hassle. And OOM's are definitely a thing of the past. Now as far non OOM related CTD's, that's another story.

If you're still using V4.1 depending on how many add-on.xml's you have activated you may have some texture loading problems. The number of sceneries activated varies from system to system. This bug only applied to the add-on.xml method. Not the regular scenery library entries. This has been corrected in v4.2. I have 38 xml + 26 in scenery library + many Orbx sceneries all activated. No problems.
