I did not use EMT, and downloaded the updates installer they had on their site. Ran it without issues. I did have to install in safemode though for some reason to get it to work right.

I am guessing that the windows cannot simply be painted over? Just a question from someone who does not know nor does any paints. If possible, to me that would seem the easiest way right?

Not everyone bows down to other companies. I am sure that LM hold as much watch with Nvidia as an actual glass of water. It all comes down to one company, do what makes it money, and gives it support. I am sorry, and while I love this hobby, we have nothing of the like of some of these other games. Call of Duty 4 still has more active users than P3D has now I would guess. Popularity is what it comes down to...sorry, and huge titles using Nvidia tech.....it is all in the marketing. LM has none for our side of this sim, and what LM uses the majority of their P3D tech for, is not us, that are more worried about looks, than function.

What kinda of third party addons are you running alongside P3D? Any ACARS system, I know you said weather already. I found that PlanG would do that to me, and Ezdok also. I had to install the newest patch for it to act right and not crash me out after about 1 hour. Also, do you use multiple monitors?

I think that is the speed at rendering scenery. I might be wrong, which is weird because it should have slowed the speed of loading down. One of the wonders of FSX I guess. It should give you better performance and I guess if you only fly low and slow should not give you an issue with the blurries. I would try something a little faster and report back too to see if you get blurries flying over dense areas like that wonderful shot you posted. I might try this myself for my Airbus, as I dont check the scenery out as much at 30k. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to hearing back!

Nice read! Thanks for sharing!

JS4100.....P3D. You guys listened. Thank you so much for this!!! Seriously. Thank you. IMO the JS4100 is one of if not the BEST addon I have made for FSX....I can't wait to fly it in P3D!

Ahh, no multiple monitor support. Too bad. I use my other monitors for other Apps. Having to use fullscreen is a no-go for me sadly.

Can anyone report about performance when using the moving map and APP on another full screen? I ditched EFB because if absolutely killed my computer running it alongside P3D

Ya. Plus, PMDG is slow walking P3D. Almost every other developer is supporting it. I know that IFly will be very expensive for some reason for P3D, but oh well. They don't even support their addons for commercial training and still up the price. But, for people like me interested in a 747 that is new, this looks to be the only real way to go if you want it in the future before a whole other Sim comes out lol.

Man. I have a hard decision to make. This looks awesome. Issue is they are not releasing the P3D version along with the rest, and who knows how far out PMDG are with their P3D 747.

I too am like this. I simply cannot stand it. It drives my Wife nuts. She just pauses the movie/TV show, and looks at me waiting for me to finish also. I also count rounds coming out of weapons. I will almost walk away from a movie when I see someone shoot about 27 times from a pistol without even thinking of reloading. Watching movies that vehicles jump 20 feet in the air, and the clips ends with them slamming bumper first into the ground, then the next clip is of them continuing to drive.

I will be picking it up this Friday. Nice.

Shame. I too would be one of the people to pay $20 for just a simple VC upgrade. Maybe in the future, the person who made the freeware update would get the blessing of PMDG. That alone would make me reinstall FSX lol.

When flying something other than small GA planes. I fly with my VA, and we have a whole RW based route system. I only fly where I left off, and fly real world routes at the real world times. Kinda helps me with the realism I guess. I don't actually fly the times the real schedules does, I just set it to that time in the sim.

Task Scheduler also I would look at. You would be surprised the different things, that run automatically sometimes on your computer that you don't even know about. Most people talk all about Anti-virus, but that is just one of dozens of programs that run in the background. I have edited almost every program through Task Manager on my computers, as I found some of them just update/run whenever instead of low usage times. I have most the work my computer does now start to run after midnight, then I have a custom task to run CCleaner and then shut down when it is finished once every two weeks.

The x86 in my opinion is the root of most people's issues. Even with correct permissions Windows still has issues allowing access and write permissions to that folder. I know you don't want to hear it but I would reinstall to a folder that you make in the normal c drive

I already own ASN, but that is a great gesture for future potential users. Everyone should at least check it out. I couldn't believe what I had been missing before I used ASN.

I dont think this is a LM problem as I have not seen anyone talk about this. Do you have any other programs running also at the same time? Anti-virus or the like? Also what directory have you installed P3D? The x86 folder?

Have you changed any settings around in your cfg file? 2.4 is at its best with nothing being touched in the config file. Also what settings do you have in your GPU software, either Nvidia, or AMD? I would default everything and go from there first. You also have not stated what, if any addons you have installed and how you installed them if they are not P3D native.

I love it. They took stuff from Win7 I loved and added it to the stuff that Win8 I loved. IMO it is what 8 should have been. It works way better together with everything. Less of a total tablet feel and more intuitive.

I have Tampa, and I have turned off some of the default options during install, like moving vehicles and such that don't matter anyways. Unless you are flying in circles around these airports, turning off some of the options you would never see or really notice on an departure or arrival helps a lot. At FlyTampa Tampa, I have almost a solid 30fps with the Aerosoft Airbus A319. Better than say SunSkyJet KPHL that is freeware.

I use it on my laptop. Love it. Will make the switch when it is released.

Hello all, Thinking about picking this up today, but I have one question, and I can't seem to find an answer to it. I am only interested in using this on P3D for Vatsim traffic models. Do I have to do something special, or skip a part to just install the models? I don't need all the schedules and stuff, as I keep my traffic turned off. I just want to use this, and vPilots model set for seeing the correct aircraft while online. Thanks for any help or tips! As I said, I couldn't find anything on do this. William

Awesome! I recently reinstalled my flight1 PC12. Carenado left me kinda wanting better systems. At least correct ones. Thanks for sharing!
