P3D Windows at darkness in VR

Featured Replies

Hey Guys,

I have one problem which is really anoying and want to find out if any other user has it too.

Once it becomes dark in P3D or is not fully bright day, I have problems to bring up the ATC window or the GSX window. No problem in daylight conditions,but as soon the sun sets I need several attempts or even need to switch views, to bring it up. I use chaseplane for views, so it might be a contributing factor. Anyone else seeing this?

Hi Marcus,

Okay, then its a pitty but at least I know the root cause.

Well after I reset my P3D to default, its event worse, now the ATC window never appears in VR anymore, only in normals view. So the shadertool was not the culprit.

Man this sim anoys me so much, I hope this is gone with the new one...

The GSX (and I suppose other 2D windows like ATC which I don't use) window is a bit fickle. Sometimes it shows up in VR, other times not. I haven't been able to figure what's driving this behaviour. Hopefully LM will figure this out and fix it for future updates.

Restarting p3d and your HMD software sometimes helps

Yes, that was exactly the behaviour I've seen, but after I installed all again, in other words a nacked P3D with no addons, it was completely gone in darkness and never showed up anymore.

Sorry to say, but this kind of stuff plus the daily crashes makes me wanna get rid of P3D sooner than later. But there is hope on the horizon.

Trx rebuilding Shaders in the sim. You could do that whyle the sim is running. That helps often. Maybe try it at daytime in P3D. That is what i do.

I do believe, the new sim won't be supporting VR right away.
