Hi, i'd redownload the latest standalone addonmanager from FS Dreamteam: (you'll find it in the lower left) http://www.fsdreamteam.com/products_kiah.html If you use GSX too, download the latest version too, and install it before the standalone addonmanager As far as i remember an older installer caused such issues.

fantastic news! What's next, mouse over performance bug? :wink:

Hi John, i am sorry, i am having no better advice than to rethink your backup strategy in future, if your primary interest is still flying and not bug hunting. :ph34r: It's no wonder that MS system recovery points aren't any help. [= normally just registry snapshots, all the files being overwritten by any installer in the sim will normally stay as they are] If this feature ever were reliable, we wouldn't need full-backup images any longer. You said you've migrated to W10. The Microsoft Windows Update & Installation Policy of W10 should be reason enough to gain your administration skills which means starting to expect issues and compensate them in time by building partition images of your operating system and your FS partition (if seperated), before you update your operating system and before doing main changes in your sim. :wink: To bring good news, MS has its own backup image service. Not very conformable, but you aren't forced to spend money on that. Anyway, i hope you'll get your issues fixed soon.

The bottlenecks are clockspeed of your CPU (you will have to OC all your cores at least to 4-4.2 GHZ, impossoble with non K series cpu) and 1,5GB VRAM according to your preferences regarding texture-filtering. For none overclockers i'd suggest Intel i7 4790K or the newer Intel i7 6700k. As GPU a Nvidia 970GTX (or better) if you want to migrate to P3D. On stock-clockspeed (3,5Ghz) you'll have to expect ~15fps average (measured with extended FSX fps indication and lot of V(ariance)) on ground when addon airport is active and fs setup is being moderate.

If you ever intend to reinstall your flightsimulator platform you'll be happy to execute just one installer per aircraft. :wink:

Thx, everything's clear now! regards Paul

Hi Keven, thx for your quick reply. I intend to change hardware (at least CPU, RAM, Mainboard, GPU) and plattform before xmas and will use the old PC just as weather client in future and not for simming host anymore I thought i could avoid losing activations by deinstalling your installers before formating my SSD. regards Paul

Hi, i have several issues with your website, updates. etc... 1.) it seems you ssl connection is being broken, at least my browser says this 2.) no live update possible (777 Immersion, PrecipitFX) trying for an hour 3.) your website doesnt like my all my browsers (opera, chromium) 4.) your website is at least as slow as avsim :mad: One question left: I want to migrate to P3Dv3 soon. Your website says i have one activation each left. What do i have to do to keep it? Will it being recognized if i deinstall your products or do i have to do something manually? thx in advance Pul Bosak

Good as gold, but not the topic in my thread. QED!

You didn't read my post well enough. The essential part i'm referring to and having in mind isn't caught by Youtube. As far as i remember they said it shortly before this clips starts. But if you still haven't got it, i do not insist on that. So there is no need to discuss this any longer I just wanted to have the option otherwise it will be disabled forever, because it is annoying to silence it periodically. And this is a fact regardless what your FCOM says. :ph34r:

It's long ago i've seen the whole Air Canada 200LR YSSY-CYVR DVD but i am still pretty sure they spoke of an intervall of 5h. You will not see the essential part on the Youtube advertising clip i already checked it out. But my point isn't if this is realistic. Autostepclimbs aren't realistic as well, but very useful. It's just too bad, you have to deactivate an option completely because you can't individualise it. That's why i'm asking. I had hoped this is something which could easily being changed in a specific *.ini, etc,... cheers

Have to correct myself. Return flight LOWW-YSSY worked fine. So that issue wasn't related to the aux-tank option, as thought before.

haven't any troubles with my settings, thanks however

Hi Ahmet when using P3D make sure you have set this line to your p3d.cfg [Main] AlwaysFullLoad=1 also make sure you have this fix installed when using windows 7 64bit https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/kb/947246 If you still have OOM then feel free to share your complete setup. We will find a way to avoid OOM cheers

Hi Jordan, did a lot of really long flights with 347.88 driver without any issues (P3Dv2.5). Changed to 352.86 and had 2 G2D events within 5 flights. So i changed back, and the issues were gone. As this driver seems to be really stable and compatible (referring p3d lights issue) i didn't upgrade to 353.06 anymore because there is no further increase in stability when already stable. ^_^ G2D events are hard to solve. If one is being confronted with that i'd start to rollback the driver at first. Thats what i've been trying to say before. cheers

would anyone with OOM like to share his vector settings? That's a real VAS eater! :ph34r: just tick highways primary roads small rivers wetlands and nothing else wenn flying IFR with a complex airliner It is possible to end every flight in fsx and p3d without OOM it is always a matter of setup. But there are meanwhile some very detailed airports out there, which don't let you the margin to use excessice ai traffic anymore. :ph34r: If you still want to use it you have to reduce LOD, TML; cloud drawing distance, soundprecaching, etc...

Hi Kyle, I left the computer with FL300, when i came back (several hours later; total flighttime was 18h 21min, no time acceleration, it stuck with FL340 when the opt. alt suggested FL380. No manual adjustment in the meantime. Normally the auto step climb works fine (200LR, F, 300ER) but it was the first time i had chosen the 3 aux tanks and that seems affect the ASC feature in a negative way. I don't know when i start the return flight but i am sure this will happen again on an odd level. (btw. this issue is no big deal, i just wanted to let you know. The info was taken from a 777 Cockpit DVD years ago. They demonstrated what will happen on a flight where no inputs are given for a long interval, in that case it was 5 hours, as far as i remember it was a flight form YSSY to KLAX or vice versa. I would be happy if i only had to react once or twice during a pacific crossing, regardless how real this is today. The alternative is to deactivate it totally, but i'd prefer to control this interval on my own. B) Hi Mike, i got it, will prepare my ini before the next flight, thank you very much. fsuipc is really a mighty tool. :wub: cheers paul

Hi Mike, will look into that, thx

Gents, I did my first YSSY-LOWW with 3 auxilary tanks on the LR yesterday and noticed auto-step-climb stopped working, when reaching FL340. It worked fine between FL 300 and FL340, but when the 77L should be leveled at FL380 already it still was at FL340. (P3Dv2.5; W7 64 bit, ASN) Btw. if someone else experiences G2D events with the last Nvidia WHQL driver, give it a try to go back to 347.88 WHQL. (it seems to be really stable on extremely long flights) Some thoughts: "Crew Alertness Monitor" i normally don't use this company option, because i can't set the idle trigger myself. If i could set it to e.g. 5 hours like i have seen it in real i would let it more likely enabled. But its annoying to push every hour a button between KLAX and YSSY. I hope we'll get the chance to personalize this option anytime soon, at least in future PMDG aircrafts. And my last thought refers to operations center: As i spend lot of time doing long hauls with the lovely 777 and saving my flight status cyclic with fsuipc autosaves, literally tons of files are being generated in PMDG panelstate folder. It would be handy, if the whole folder could be cleaned via OC GUI (except the standard panelsaves) when pressing a cleaning button. Maybe also a feature recovering unintentionally cleaned standard panel saves through OC (caching them) without using the aircraft installer again. cheers Paul

maybe someone can answer this: Are the installers compatible with every P3D v2 version. (academic, professional,..) or are they limited to academic plattform? thanks

thx for your effort, Kyle

Thx for the reply. I still hope this will be natively supported. As we know it from autostepclimbs in the 777

Will the 747v2 have an optional automatism with reference to cross-feeds (for those who still have a life and need to sleep sometimes )?

If your available VAS is less than ~150mb you will lose your exterior model, too. Regardless if you put the highmemfix line in your fsx.cfg You should monitor this VAS parameter on your flights, with tools like VAS monitor (available at avsim library, but wideFS is needed) FSUIPC also tells you if your are below 250mb VAS left with aural warning beeps.

happened to me twice with SP1b in KIAD. My thought on this is, that GSX (airport caching, whatever) had interfered the PMDG initialisation process. Those modules are all busy after loading fsx, simultaneously
