I've tried to go to their forums for 3 days now and consistently get an unorganized raw html page with something alluding to a server/configuration error with code EX145...

Below is a link to a free source of updates to VOR, NDB, ILS, and runway identifiers. https://www.aero.sors.fr/navaids3.html

What will we need to back up for the 747-400 update? I am planning to uninstall current version and install new version, unless it's OK to install the new one over the old....

Considering the traffic with the 4.3 release I wanted to post the link to the Youtube interview FSElite did with LM at FSExpo in its own thread. This is a very open discussion with great info and not like their traditional formulaic and cryptic corporate PR releases. I also feel this interview puts to rest a lot of the opinionated debates about LM's development focus and target audience.

For those wondering about non-VR performance improvements whether you are seeing them or not they are there. As @simbol has mentioned, YMMV depending on your settings and/or hardware. LM directly states that any improvements to VR "translates directly to non-VR too" in their interview with FSElite (see below at 3:50) So for those (like myself) that don't use VR should still care about VR improvements. Also if you haven't seen the interview it is worth a watch!

Version 4.3 has been released https://www.prepar3d.com/news/2018/06/114765/ "Fixed issue that caused keypresses to be processed on SimConnect menu windows when opened."

I respect the idea and efforts of PMDG, however I was hoping for something to enhance flying the aircraft and not operating it. Alas, I am going to bookmark this topic and {insert Michael Jackson popcorn GIF/Meme}

Has there been any mention of anybody planning to stream RSR's presentation at FS Expo?

I backed up multiple 747 QotS II aircraft in one PTP. When I try to restore I get a dialogue box (https://imgur.com/T7LDDw1) that lists the aircraft in the file and says to select one. I do and press OK then nothing happens.... I have a custom naming convention and don't want to have to download all those aircraft again and make changes...... The aircraft that I backed up one at a time (had the custom naming too) imported just fine.

This is the reason I chose Chaseplane over EZDok2. A camera tool should NOT affect the flight dynamics/physics simulation of an aircraft. See Froogle's video at starting at the 4:03 minute mark https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WM1XGcpKUCo&t=243s . I have both and use LNM for an inflight EFB-type role. @Bobsk8 and @Benjamin J might also want to check out https://www.simbrief.com/home/ . It is basically a free web-based PFPX that has a static AIRAC (I think it is 1703). It includes all the climb, cruise, descent, ETOPS, etc planning and you can customize and save your own specific aircraft. If you want to get into runway performance planning, don't waste your money on TOPCAT. It has been abandoned by the developer for a few years now (although they still support PFPX). If I get into a questionable situation (ie 747 on a mid length runway) I use a free tool: QSim Planner https://qsimplan.wordpress.com/ .

Jim, I think you should make a pinned forum topic regarding 4.2 and updating FSUIPC. I just updated from 4.1 to 4.2 today and ran into the issue immediately. Luckily some shrewd Google searching led me to the solution but others might not have that initiative.....

This is an FSUIPC issue.....update to 5.124 and the problems should go away.

I updated from 4.1 to 4.2 today and ran across this issue. Turns out it was an FSUIPC issue....update to 5.124 and the problem should disappear.

This should work: http://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/files/file/4442-pfpx-mcdonnell-douglas-md-8090-family-performance-profiles-pack/ The link from Meekg was the actual download link which I believe has some extra stuff that is situationally unique.

Per their own press, unlike the previous one it is going to be a PMDG level simulation which would command a PMDG level price.... I'll wait personally. I learned my lesson with the BBox A330/340. Still waiting for TFDi to finish the 717.....

Rob, Can you re-upload the picture in your OP? For some reason it won't show for me. When I click 'open in new tab' it leads to a page that says 'Backend failed'

A/C is C-FNNH

Will PMDG ever add support for the built in weather radar to work with REX weather engines? I have been a long time user of Active Sky, however REX Skyforce looks like it could be a game changer....

Are scenery libraries like Rwy12 and EZ Scenery usable in v4? Are there any other more updated/modern libraries?

I asked the developer back in early July and got this response: KJAX works in P3D v4 with no problems. We should have an installer out very soon but in the meantime there is a way to get it installed using our current installer. In the future we do plan on releasing a version with new natives features that are supported in P3D v4. Let me know if you have any further questions.

Is there an installer for the V4 compatible package or does it have to patched from the V1 files? Did you use the V4 SDK for the models?

You might as well go ahead. RSR clearly states the free upgrade/same price is only guaranteed as far as the day the v4 version is released.

While I agree this isn't "breaking" the Facebook page is showing recent updates: https://www.facebook.com/Triton-Simulation-Fleet-powered-by-Paperscan-1102409483176457/ Have some faith, this is by far the closest anybody has gotten. I mean look at the cockpit shots in the timeline photos! Even the donation-ware "AI" 450 is the better than what is out there now for Flight Sim IMHO
