I checked and that feature was not turned on. But thanks for mentioning it.

I will look into that. I do use FSUIPC6 but when I had disabled it the sim still had the stutter.

Thanks but that isn't worth it. Will just not use the flysimware aircraft much any more.

I already tried that, disabling the GTN. But I have the GTN and WX radar in other aircraft and they don't have this issue. Thanks for the suggestions. But I have already checked, everything is up to date. Also this only happens in P3D v5.1. I have the same aircraft, scenery and addons in P3D v4.5 and no issue.

I would also ask the question to Reality XP as to why all of this is even necessary to begin with. By that I am asking why the VC panel screen brightness is different from the Popup panel screen brightness? Shouldn't they be set to be the same brightness to begin with?

I have some aircraft that have Reality XP GTN installers, so the VC panel has a bezel which functions. On those aircraft the VC panel brightness is much brighter than the popup panel. So I can't use the fix for NO BEZEL.

I have no idea. As I mentioned I pulled out addons and then put them back in to try to identify any that were causing this behavior. I could not identify any particular addon. Also, this only happens with my Flysimware aircraft and my xTremeprototypes Lear 25. It does not happen on any of my many Carenado aircraft no on my PMDG 737 NGXu or my FSLabs A320. And those last two are definitely complex study level aircraft.

Thanks for the information in this thread. It has partially solved the issue for me. Now as how to adjust the brightness on those aircraft that have a Reality XP GTN installer but still have a very bright in panel GTN with a bezel and a dim popup panel.

Thank you. That partially answers my questions.

Well after removing all of my plugins the stuttering stopped. I put them all back in and removed a few at a time to see if I could identify any that were causing the stuttering. After pulling a few out, putting them back in, pulling a few others out, on and on I could not identify any individual addon that was causing the issue. It would seem the issue is resource related which is only affecting a few aircraft in P3D v5.1 but not in P3D v4.5. Is there anything that can be done with the flysimware aircraft to reduce the resources they use?

Well I should have troubleshot more. I had another aircraft that also had stuttering. I removed all addons from my addon folder and tried P3D v5.1 and the stutter went away, so not to try to figure out which addon is causing this, but only with certain aircraft.

I have been noticing stuttering lately with some of my aircraft when in P3D v5.1. Namely my flysimware aircraft. When, for example, taxiing at KDEN by Flightbeam, I experience momentary stutters about every 15 seconds when taxiing or flying. I thought it was with a particular plugin so I started that line of troubleshooting. Then I started trying other aircraft. No stuttering with my Carenado aircraft, PMDG 737 NGXu, FsLabs A320 etc. But I do experience it with my Flysimware Lear 35A , Falcon 50 and MU2. All of these have the Reality XP GTN 750 installed in them which I did a few days ago, changing from the Flight1 GTN over to the Reality XP GTN. So I am looking for any suggestions as to why I am having this issues. The stuttering does not happen in P3D v4.5, only in P3D v5.1. Thank you for your suggestions.

I just wanted to make a post to say thank you for the existence of this forum. Yesterday I got tired of not being able to update my F1 GTN complete because F1 was not going to do an update to the latest trainer. I also use the Reality XP GTN for X Plane so having two different versions was causing an issue and the last time I did an update I discovered that the latest trainer installers do not allow you to install a previous version but instead force the installation of the latest trainer and will not install if you shut off your internet connection. I was fortunate to have found an off line installer for the previous version which enabled me to restore that version and get both GTNs working again, otherwise I would have had no GTN in P3D. All of that prompted me to make the move over to the P3D version of the Reality XP GTN 750 and 650. I installed them yesterday and spent an entire day configuring the aircraft in both P3D v4.5 and v5.1 (I have a lot of aircraft). After finishing the configuration I discovered an issue. On many aircraft I had no nav1. I could tune in a frequency but there was no ident and a nav off flag. So I could not do any VOR or ILS approaches on most of my aircraft. After a lot ot fruitless troubleshooting I found this forum and found a solution that someone had posted. I tried that and it fixed the issue which occurs in the aircraft which have an installer that only supports the F1 GTN but not the Reality XP GTN. For those aircraft after installing I had to go into the Reality XP plugin and use the utility to switch the F1 GTNs over to Reality XP. That process leaves behind entries in the panel.cfg files which refer to the F1 GTN. It was those left over entries which were causing my issue. Only by removing those left behind entries was my issue resolved. So thank you again for this forum where I found the solution to my issue. I am up and running again with the Reality XP GTNs installed in both X Plane 11 and P3D.

I was wondering if there is a way to adjust the brightness of the VC panel. The GTN 750 brightness in the VC panel is brighter than that of the popup. So I would like the two to be about the same brightness. I have tried the configuration panel (shift and right click) as well as the in panel brightness adjustment. There does not seem to be a way to reduce the screen brightness for the VC panel without lowering the brightness of the popup panel.

That suggestion wouldn't work as FS2020 uses the community folder that I listed above.

I manually pasted the path in with a backslash at the end and get the error message "Cannot handle the Community path, search another one!" As I mentioned before I am using Addon Linker and that works so I guess I'll stick with that.

I tried that and it didn't work. I have only the one community folder that I am aware of.

Having an issue. Instead of searching for the path I pasted it in (D:\SteamLibrary\steamapps\common\MicrosoftFlightSimulator\Cache\Community) and apparently the exe cannot handle the path. I let the exe do it's own search and it comes back saying the community folder was not found.

OK thanks, found it.

Where did you upload it to? I checked Simmarket and they have version 4.0.1 but it does not contain the executable.

Thank you for the response. I did set things up using Addon Linker and that is working.

The installer would make it easier. Yes I can open up two folders, copy one season into the community folder and delete the previous season. Just a little old school. But I reread the install.txt file that came with it and it mentioned using Addon Linker. So I set that up but still, this is a manual process and yes only needs to be done once a quarter. It works but only the trees change so I may just remove it after a while.

Hello. Today I purchased the 4 seasons pack from Simmarket and saw on another posting there is an executable to assist in installing the seasons into the community folder for FS2020. I did not get any executable with my purchase. In fact the purchased said 4 seasons pack but the download said single seasons pack but it had 4 seasons folders in it. Is there any way I can get the executable? Thanks.

Thank you very much for that information. I should have looked more closely in the documentation. As as a compliment, the documentation that comes with the Reality XP GTN series is much better than what comes with the F1 GTN series. Way better!

Thank you for your reply. Currently I have about 65 flight plans stored in GTN 750_1 ( I only use one GTN) and have thought about what you mentioned that it might be easier to just enter the flight plan by bringing it up in Little NavMap and then manually entering the waypoints into the GTN. I'll have to do a comparison to see which works out faster. Another idea I had was to use windows explorer to copy a flight plan from my master list into the upload folder. Then just load the flight plan without storing it and then delete the flight plan from the upload folder after the flight.
