Is this product in any way connected with Matt Davies? It might be as they talk about PTA on their website.

NVM I found this ;

Hey, Which of the P3D options/settings are CPU dependent, and which are GPU dependant? I am curious as to which options put more load on the CPU vs the GPU.

Thanks for the suggestions and input, I will give those options a go. Is the use of Process Lasso recommended, and if so, is it just a case of configuring it to put AS, RC etc onto core 0/1?

The affinity calculator is a great tool - thanks so much @MammyJammy! I have read through this whole thread and I am still a bit confused (not with how to use it) but with which core to place things on and/or which to mask. Is there a right or wrong way to set up the masks? I have an i7-7700k (4 cores with HT enabled) and the tool gave me this: [JobScheduler] AffinityMask=252 P3DCoreAffinityMask=252 MainThreadScheduler=0 RenderThreadScheduler=2 FrameWorkerThreadScheduler=4 So Core 0 is free for the OS, I'm using Process Lasso to place utilities like AS, ASCA, RC, Littlenavmap, FS Flight Keeper onto core 1 (HT0). Anything like ut_live, couatl (fired off by dll.xml or exe.xml) is also on core 1 using PL. I use P3D with complex add-ons/aircraft, frame rates limited in NV. It seems OK to me but I would like someone to validate if possible.

You could try https://www.timeanddate.com/weather/ and search for a city/town then use the past weather option to look back over the last couple of weeks to see if it was what you wanted

Yes the path is correct, the error is my typo. I started getting this error on my 2nd flight. The first was fine and I had no issues.

@MammyJammy - firstly thank you so much for your work on this aircraft and bringing it alive. Today on finals I saw a number of messages appearing relating to the callout files and also when starting the APU. I wonder if you know what the issue might be with this? For example: "Error encountered the wait operation timed out Full Error Code 0x102 location 5 File c:\users\myname\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons\JustflightDC-10\Guages\PanelSounds/dc10cls/APU_START.WAV" I checked in that folder and the filename(s) it referenced are there.

Are the main gripes fixed with the update today (sounds, pitch issues and fan blade animations) then?

Hello I am using button control of v1.8 which I installed this morning. After shutdown the pre-flight is still stuck at 0 and hasn't reset ready for the next sector. Clicking on Run Preflight Events does nothing and I cannot see a way to reset this back to 25 minutes. Edit: Also the PA messages don't reset either. Jonathan

Yes, of course.

Hello The safety briefing mentions emergency exits on the main deck and the upper deck. Last time I looked the 787 didn't have 2 decks. Jonathan

Yeah I have this too. It happens to the GSX messages, PMDG initialising messages, also RC window too. I have seen the Parking Brakes message flash momentarily too.

I’d like to see Malta. This hasn’t been done for ages.
