I renamed the cfg I that got replaced. I went back to my previous version (non default) and everything works fine. Something was obviously missing from it.

Hi all, I deleted the p3d.cfg to let the sim rebuild a default one. When I load up my Aersoft Airbus after about 1 minute all the rotating knobs and button actions stop working. Clicking on the MCDU does not work. I have reinstalled the Airbus but this has not changed anything. Any ideas?

FYI I did some testing at the weekend. I had blurry textures with 4790k/HT On/AM 116. Performance was very good but blurred ground textures...noticeably blurred. I turned HT Off and removed the AM from P3D.cfg. Blurred textures have disappeared but I have lost FPS smoothness in the sim. I will dial back some settings to mitigate this. So there is no doubt HT On and a suitable AM will improve FPS performance. This definitely has an impact on my ground textures with my 4790k though. Following what you have said I may revert back to my original settings and test the scenery complexity slider in 3.3.5.

That would make sense then. Thanks! It's only ever the ground textures.

I remember the big thread on this before. I may try FXAA and MSAA in sim to see what it looks like. But your monitor is much better than mine. Affinity Mask From Steve's big thread previously I started running AM=116 in P3D with a 4790k. I then have a batch file to start ASN on perhaps AM=85 I can't remember. Things have been pretty good. My textures take a while to transition from blurry to sharp if I pan around in spot view sometimes. Not sure if that has anything to do with HT being ON

I can confirm that FSUIPC.dll was only referenced in the app data location

I will check later thank you Cargostorm. Playing through my mind was also maybe I should update to 3.3 from 3.2 but I don't think that should change anything. Regards, Dom

Good day to all, I have posted this on the other relevant forums as well, but response time on there is somewhat slower. With FSUIPC 4.955 (Jun 2016) + P3DV3.2 + Aerosoft Airbus X....I cannot open the Cargo Doors. The correct button on the MCDU, it only ever controls the Front Left door. If I delete FSUIPC4.DLL then I can correctly operate the Cargo doors. Does anyone have any idea why this is? I cannot fly without FSUIPC of course. Outstandingly frustrating. Regards, Dom

As stated above my personal belief is that unless your weather settings are nearly maxed out, the depiction of the METAR from ASN is not neccessarily going to match up. Rain cannot fall directly from a blue sky of course. It's highly likely that the volume of clouds depicted in P3D is lower than reality. ASN might be saying OVC with rain but your only getting FEW/BKN in P3D + rain because your cloud layers or coverage density isn't set appropriately to model OVC layers. Turn everything up to max you will get your cloud coverage and correct depiction of thunderstorms.

+1 on this. There isn't anything wrong with the weather engine in my opinion. If you were to have a decent lvel of "cloud layers" selected in ASN, plus "high" cloud coverage density in P3D, plus detailed clouds etc...you would not have a problem. Max out the weather settings you will get realistic overcast and thunderstorm depiction. But it will absolutely cripple your frames. I am sacrificing weather at the moment to run 4xSGSS, but I may adopt your approach Mike. Regards, Dom

Thanks guys. I'm going to be doing a few more hopefully.

ASN cannot read the PMDG file type. You need to export it as the .pln type which can be read by FSX for example.

Export it as a FSX .pln file and load in to ASN

Hi all, Ok so my smoke/contrails/touchdown have all turned into black square effects. Which is not very pleasing. I read somewhere that NL2000 might have done this. Does anyone know where I can get original effects/texture files? I'm running 3.2 which I updated through content/client installers. The only full installer file I have is v3.0. Would downloading aftermarket replacement textures do the job? Does anyone have a link to originals? *EDIT* Some people say that repairing P3D would fix this. - Does that involve running the v3.0 installer? - Install v3.0 on another drive and copy the effects folder? Regards, Dom

Impressive trip!

Edited: ignore me

Thanks. I have been recording a few flights in P3D using the inbuilt recording tool. For best results I'm finding I need to playback and record in real time then perhaps speed up in post processing? Regards, Dom

I moved my simobjects last night. Freed up 16GB Seemed to work fine as I did a flight afterwards

Very nice!

Great vid I am keen to give ReShade a try. Are you able to just give me some bullet points tips on how to go about downloading? http://reshade.me/ What am I getting from here? Regards, Dom

Hi all, Please see an example here https://www.youtube....h?v=sX3-VPwc_Fg I am not sure how the simmer made this exactly but I have a question. There are some clips in the link above where the camera is looking out over the nose from inside the cockpit. Does anyone know of software which would allow a user to record this view during a flight but what the user actually sees is the normal VC view. It would make for some great day in the life of a simmer videos. Regards, Dom

Takeoff had me lol. Nice set up though

Thanks. After doing some reading I think I will transfer some bits on to my HDD (E Drive) and link across.
