  1. FWIW, released 11/9/15
  2. Do not know if this applies in your particular case, but if you had previously purchased and installed FS Global 2010 for P3Dv2, you only need to download and run the new installer and not the entire set of files.. +1 for using FlashGet :smile:

  5. And always re-install the latest ORBX library after installing any ORBX product... They also have a beta FTX Centralv2 out that will handle P3Dv2.5
  6. Try the HDR file changes that some have used to success... http://forum.avsim.net/topic/455299-the-perfect-hdr/
  7. Do not think we are supposed to post software files... Maybe PM me. :rolleyes:
  8. I have an i5-3570K and run it at 4.6 GHz... No micro stutter for me.... other settings in signature.
  9. I would just say goodbye and wish you the best with a sim you find to your liking... I did and the sim I left was FSX and the sim I am liking is P3Dv2.4. Each to his own. There is plenty of info in forums for P3D tweaks and hardware. Just look at the contributions from Rob and many others. That is not Lockheeds/P3D's job for us many "academic" users. Just my honest opinion. Cheers and happy flying... :-)
  10. Bought the Benq BL3200PT for $585 no tax and free shipping at NCIX 32" 2560 x 1440 4ms
  11. Let the wife have a fly around ORBX NCal KSFO in a 737... Then KSEA and Mt Rainier/St Helens... I think she got hooked... She was amazed at the details and she had a blast! lol...
  12. Now looking at Benq BL3200PT for $650 and free shipping (best buy) 32" 2560 x 1440 4ms
  13. Looking to upgrade my ASUS 24" 1980x1080 display with something around the 32" size... Maybe in $500-800 range? Any suggestions on what would be a good display for P3Dv2? I have an intel 3570K and ASUS GTX 980 3GB video card system. System is only used for P3D. Thanks in advance!
  14. Dated 09/01/2014... http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/84439-orbxlibs-140901/
  15. With v2.3, I have found that I can increase MXAA from 4 to 8 and still get great fps. :-)
  16. I live in Winthrop, WA. We have had multiple fires, including the largest fire in the history for the state of Washington this last month. Here are a couple of videos of some large planes making the drops... DC10 dropping fire retardant over here a few weeks ago in Twisp/Winthrop... Goodness that is a BIG PLANE! C130 (I think) dropping right overhead...
  17. FYI, Looks like we will be getting another patch to fix a new bug in terrain shadows... We found the issue with terrain shadow casting. We changed some variable names in the terrain shader and missed a few entries. Looking at it now, I'm a bit surprised the shader compiled. It would best to keep terrain casting disabled until we can put out an update. http://www.prepar3d.com/forum-5/?mingleforumaction=viewtopic&t=7882
  18. I know that Nvid Controlpanel does not have as many options as Inspector, but since P3DV2.3 does not need a lot of tweaking, can I just use it? In controlpanel, under tranparency sampling, is "4x (supersample)" the same as inspector "4x sparse grid supersample"? I was going to follow some of Rob's settings at http://www.robainscough.com/Prepar3D_Settings_2.php Thanks in advance! Ray
  19. Patch installed fine for me. "Computing Space Requirements" part does take a while. I had deleted some of the old cfg files and let them be rebuilt and deleted shader cache. I do get a complaint at startup for ORBX obectflow.dll not tested with the new version of P3D... I said run anyway and things seem to work OK. ORBX will probably publish a new library for the new patch. Performance wise, I am seeing that all cores of my i5-3570K are being used (no more affinity mask needed now)... getting less stutters around KSEA and FPS has gone up from 30 to high 30's and low 40's in the KSEA area. That is an improvement for my system. Water/waves textures in distance sometimes seems to shimmer strangely, not sure what that is about. Backed off Rex4 water stuff and still getting some strange shimmering. Will play around with that a little. I like the patch so far!
  20. FYI: 1TB SSD for Prepar3D and plenty of other scenery/planes... At Newegg... $400... 48 hour sale... http://promotions.newegg.com/neemail/guerrilla/LP/14-Jul/index-SSD15016.html?nm_mc=EMC-GD071614&cm_mmc=EMC-GD071614-_-index-_-Header-_-SeeAll&et_cid=9565&et_rid=193716
  21. For me, affinity mask = 15 on an i5-3570K (4 core - no ht) = No blurries. My only tweak now and I am enjoying the flying. LM says that next version/patch will turn on all cores by default and then I will not need the affinity tweak. :rolleyes:
  22. Maybe your mesh setting? Or if you hit pause, will it clean up after a time?
  23. If you also have FTX Vector (v1.15), do not forget to run the Vector Configuration Tool AEC "auto configuration" step after installing the new ORBX regions so airport elevations will not get screwed up.
  24. Maybe experiment with the P3D in sim settings for FXAA and MSAA... I use FXAA off and MSAA 4... MSAA 8 is even better for shimmering.
