can anyone point me to a cessna172 for pd3=v4 would prefer the g 1000 garmin model also will the download go straight into my fxt I have added airports and scenary but never aircraft

rimshot not to clever with files i try to not alter to much ,as i some times get in a fix my system is running great right now fsx and pd3v4 although i find a difference between all my orbx stuff for eg,. trees by orbx great in fsx not so good in pd3v4,

j sorry mate never done it before , it was how to do it was my question. i was looking for the g1000 model its the installation that gets me after i downlod what i want were do i install it to pd3v4

i want to add a cessna 172p to my aircraft menu in pd3v4 what is the correct way to do it free or payware i dont mind which dave

can anyone give me a clue how to start..... pd3v4 gets as far as 1st srcreen no menue just black prepar3d.....ftx opens but will not uninstall just closes program. i have sent log to orbx but as yet no reply. need to uninstaal and redo the lot but how i am stuck

i have same problem pdsv4 i only have orbx addons which were working perfect system loading in good time added 2 free addons and bump gets as far as data once 100% but then hangs, uninstalled the two addons still no joy any ideas kicking about dave

i have just started with pd3v4 i had the same ploblem used to get stuck at 6 % i found at first it was my vpn server but only happened when connected to belfast . i reloaded it on a new drive hdd now from hitting start i can be on in under 1 min hdd are cheap now worth a try but i must ad i run at 4.4 gb

ok nick got it sorted now spent a good bit of time with it , I added it to a new hdd and it came good. trees from orbx all good well worth the small cost. all my other orbx stuff added with ftx so easy now I am playing with settings so many, fps very good. I even lowered my cpu to 4.4 don't seem to make a lot of difference from the 4.7 I had it running at. I had 16gb of 3000 memory in have since changed it to 32gb@2666 I don't no why but seems very smooth at the lower rate.anyway thanksand get the trees looks real over uk. I bet something will crop up to upset my system so many settings to fiddle with LOL all best dave

nick tried that all slides were on min. now i altered them a small amount, not a great deal select my small plane all my controls are now fine thanks to you, yet now i have another issue on loading terrain data just before flight i cannot get above 6%, so i returned all sliders back to the left tried again still 6% then black screen . my install was fine activate all checked out ok with prepar i have even lowered my overclock to 4.4 nothing seems to get me over the 6% i have also switched my vip on and off , any suggestions ie should i re-install ???? would it help . my fsx and x plane still works fine dave

ill try that nick thanks

nick done it i was doing it wrong. you may be able to give me a clue on this my ftx as installed orbx global and orbx trees now, i can see global in the list but no trees. do i have to activate them someway. i did a flight today the scenary was quite flat and poor , so i need to include some not sure how still looking, my frame rates were very high so i no its not there yet ,, fr average 164 normal on my fsx 40 dave

thanks mate ill keep trying

nick thanks / i have my plane on the runway go to options no axis there then i go to controls now which is it dave

well chaps read all your comments took the plunge this morning, still wadding through it what i see is great , cant quite get controls figered but ill keep trying when i can get sorted ill add all my orbx stuff, even with all sliders at bare min looks better than my old fsx dave
