  1. Hello, I use p3d v4, installed the sdk, but when I started the 737 I had a not working cockpit and some screens in the middle are missing. The planes and cockpit worked normal until now. The 747 II is working perfect it is only this type. Anyone any ideas? Thanks
  2. I have the same problem. No possibility the load the tutorial 2 flight. And no flightplans for tutorial 1 Anyone know if I missed something? If I look in the PMDG DC-6 map I see a lot of files, but they are all in txt format. Maybe the wrong format send with the documentation? Thanks for responding
  3. Do I have to say DC-6, Why should I write down or talk about DC-6, no reason to talk about the DC-6, As far as I know the DC-6 is a complete different plane. So if I had to talk about the DC-6 I should start a new threat about the DC-6. Anyway, hoping the new DC-6 for Prepar3d v4 is comming soon. There must be a lot of threats about the DC-6 than. May be we should start a threat about the MD11 instead of the DC-6
  4. Hi, It is a minor problem, but my 747 Prepar3d v4 start with engines running. I can change the panelstate, I can't save the new panelstate. anyone a good idea? Thanks Eric
  5. Yep, autosave could be the problem. I switched it to 1 save in 10 minutes.
  6. And I should advise you to take a look at FS2Crew, not only you get differs styles of checklist, but the copilot as well.
  7. No I 'm using it frequently and I have no problems with framesdrop. Works great.
  8. Yes, it take some time to get used to it. Bit believe me you will. Many panels are clickable so you can get a close look. One thing helped me a lot, a game mouse where you can assign a key to one of the knobs. I assigned the " space" to one of my mouse knobs. (the one under my thumb) So I have to use just 1 hand to look around and use the mouse
  9. Hi Albin, It can be frustrating if things won't work I don't know if this helps, but if you look in your configuration panel under programs, there must be 4 " microsoft flight simulator connect client" entries and 1 Microsoft ESP Simconnect. I don't know if the last one is needed for FS or P3d. But the other 4 I am certain. If you miss some the plane doesn't work ok. And I think no need to tell you but sometimes P3D starts with the new PMDG installed but not asking for an activation. You have to change multiple times different PMDG planes before the activation window start or sometimes it is hidden behind another screen. Be sure you have activated Succes
  10. Hi Bryan, Just curious, f.i. a new Windows go to different people in a " test fase" so they can anticipate on the release. Isn't that the case with flights developers? Or don't you get or can ask a list of changes ? Thanks for working on the upgrade. it isn't real anymore without my copilot :-) regards Eric
  11. Hi Nick, Do you have FSUICP and automatic saving on? If so, switching it off sometimes help.
  12. Hi Kyle, Estonia, you are right. If I talk about add ons, I never think of airplanes. Only about scenery. Never tried to install a FSX airplane. To tricky for me, I haven't got the knowledge to know certain if something works the way it should.
  13. You could decide to go to P3D. No need for fixer anymore, if FSX runs smooth on your computer than P3D should do as well. And with the two tools from Flightsim Astonia you could install every FSX addon in P3D. (Beware some addons had legal issues)
  14. flying with default scenery is switching off the most important cause for oom's, as far as I know. Try to fly around with lot's of heavy scenery and OOm's still happen. Although I have to admit that with Windows 10 they are not so frequent anymore.
  15. Sorry Dan, You're right. Here is where I found it: http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows_10-windows_install/error-80070004-3000d-when-trying-to-install/01c85e4a-6ee6-4665-bdda-683e57d02eb3?auth=1 Fixed! I got in touch with MS 3 times. The first time the chap changed an OSWindowsUpdate registry entry but that didn't make a difference. The second time we used the Media Creation Tool option and again, no joy and same problem. The 3rd time, however, he deleted an empty folder from the Start menu (and I deleted a few more) and then ran the Media Creation Tool and it worked flawlessly. So try this: Go into your start menu C:\users\<youraccount>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs and delete any empty folders. If you run a flight simulator, apparently the ORBX folder (scenery addon software) is specifically causing the issue. Once that's gone, then got to http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-10/media-creation-tool-install and download and run the Windows Update from there.
  16. On my computer everything works fine with Windows 10. I only had a problem with upgrading. (windows 10) This was caused by OrbX. (found this solution on the internet) I don't know why but Windows stops upgrading. After removing orbx the upgrade succeed and after reinstalling Orbx everything works fine. I have the feeling that it is a little bit better on fps. ((2/3 more ) but not certain about that. Didn't test this properly
  17. No, not a p3d issue. I use windows 8.1, 2 monitors and P3D 2.5. This app works great. If you push the buttons of the FMC the mouse switches to the Ipad. So the first time you have to push twice.
  18. Yep, and not only the navigraph program, but the aerosoft navdata has the same problem. You can solve it to manualy place it in the right folder.
  19. I use prepar3d 2.5 Fly with PMDG 737, PMDG 777 and Majestic Q400 (and some other stuff) I use a Saitek yoke and Saitek throttle quadrant. I also use fsuipc to set this up Some strange thing happens. PMDG 737, Q400 and all the other planes are working fine. But when I use the PMDG 777 the Saitek throttle quadrant works fine , but it doesn't respond on the yoke. I reinstalled several times, but nothing works. Only the yoke isn't working and only in the 777. Any help is much appreciated. Thanks Eric
