thanks for the guides, was wondering what was exactly Shared cockpits, I was expecting sharing in real life a cockpit between 2 simmers

Hello,

I read over the forum about an issue with Microsoft update which could have side effects with V4.1 and make it crash. Did you have a look at that option ?

Before upgrading to 4.1, are there any problems with other Simconnect addons such as Ivap (IVAO), vPilot (VATSIM), iFMS or The Lord of the Landings?

Do those apps work?

IVAO works for me although I had a problem with simconnect and I have had to format my computer and reinstall everything from scrach

Ivap as well?

ivap confirmed here, no problem following this guide  https://flightsimeindhoven.wordpress.com/2017/09/18/ivap-install-in-p3dv4-revised/

For one of my PCs the windows update installer ran, then initiated a restart, tries to load OS and greeted with BSOD and the Win10 unhappy face. I couldn't even get into safe mode, repair got me back into Win10 but much was not working correctly.  Ultimately it was a wipe and re-install OS from scratch.

Cheers, Rob.

I've just had to do the same this weekend.

I think I have to do it every 2 years, been updating since FS 95, and always the same, as soon as something needs updated after a while it messes verything up and i have to format and start from scratch. Luckily my computer is dedicated to the sim but that's very boring

Are the rain effects supposed to be an improvement over what we've had in the past, or what? I'm confused. They look dated by about 10 years.

haha same question here

also, when we speak about rain effect, do we speak about rain on the winshield or in the air ?

Precisely. Mine's the same theory. Nothing as powerful as the OP's system, but I get smooth flights.

same here, most important is having smooth flights. I get some strange changes from 100 fps to 25fps but I live with as long as it's fluid

Also, did you install any addon? I have had the same problem while installing an airport which wasn't compatible

hello,

are you sure your addons are compatible with P3D V4 ? I had a similar problem while installing an airport not compatible.

quick question, how much ram do you have ? I had 8 of ram, I just put 16 more and was wondering if it was ok or i should add more

thanks

Thanks dowscc for the link, very useful

Hi,

what does that mean change the cfg files to unicode ? Isn't it a .cfg anymore ? Not working in notepad anymore ?

thanks

I mean by putting the same video cards of course

And do you think there would be any improvements in using SLI ?

haha same here, been flying since Flight simulator on 3.5" disk with 6 disk, when the plane was just a wire, what a change !!

Hi,

I wanted to introduce myself, I live in France and have been flying 20 years ago when I was younger. Now that I have retired, I have a A320 cockpit home and make a great use of it.

I'm here to find some information when I encounter dififculties in the sim, and discuss also the new things which always come out every day.

Although I don't post too much, I read a lot of the discussions here and very interested in what I can read.

Regards,

Christian
