Did you do anthing different during the install? Everything is default, except for the sim - which I place on the root of a secondary drive.

As an experiment I just installed V5.4 and copy/pasted all the files across and it works perfectly so for me the BGL thing doesnt hold water. V6 is the absolute pinnacle of the ESP/FSX/SE code (terrain and lighting are fantastic) but its changed just enough to be incompatible with some add ons IMO. AIG have been saying that it will be updated to V6 but that was some time ago.

Tried both Alpha India and UTLive and the same problems occur with both - only a small amount of traffic appears, non parked on the ground, and the AI that does appears immediately goes into a steep descent from high altitude and crashes into the terrain. Tried with just a vanilla install, no add-ons except the AI traffic. Used the Delete Generated Files batch file a AND reinstalled both windows and P3D, the same problems occurr. Any suggestions or insight ? (Apart from v6 being a complete waste of time!)

@Ray Has there been an update to this intriguing and mysterious new product yet? Have I missed an announcement?

The only "tweak" I have had to use is installing V5.4 along side v6. I install v6 compatible add ons into v5 and then just copy/paste scenery/add-on's/etc to and from the relevant folders in v6. Works fine. Megascenery EGLL, Orb X/TFDI717, Blackbird Milviz King Air and 180EVO, Carenado Citation II, Ground Assist, Ultimate Traffic all work fine (some just need an ADD-ON.XML file but thats it), even SPAD.Next works. You do have to edit add-ons.xml in C:\ProgramData\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v6 but its just copy/paste from the v5 file.

P3Dv5 aircraft internal lighting does seem much darker on v6 than its own default models. Maybe something needs tweaking.

Agreed, its great for the default ATC, but why bother when Radar Contact 4 is free/abandonware?

Oh dear - happened last night on P3Dv6!! Must be pushing the settings too hard.

Thanks again Ray, but that looks far to complicated for me lol! I had a think and just knocked all the settngs in Display and World down 1 notch and it seems to be working now. Probably a bit ambitious with the settings. Thanks again.

Thanks Ray, its vitually a brand new build with a virgin Windows 11 install. I will read through again but its an AMD card (23.5.2 drivers) so not sure what else I can do.

Just suffered this. P3D 5.4, Ryzen 5600, 32gb ram, AMD 6700XT, Windows 11 all WU installed. Was parked in default Learjet 45 from Rikoo @ Drzewiecki Design KORD 1.4, ASP3D, Proflight3 atc. I have MSI Afterburner open to monitor temps and ram/gpu usage and everything seemed hunky dory then BLAM error message. Thought this was fixed?

Thanks Bert, that sorted it. :thumbs:

I used the MOVE option to transfer the MSFS files from the C drive to a backup E drive, now after reinstalling Windows the reinstalled xbox app cant find the backed up data on the drive with the files on it! Its jusr wants to reinstall from fresh. Is this fixable? Sorry to dig up this old post.

I'm considering purchasing a pair of these for my Bravo throttle. Flap/Spoiler detents I already have a flap notch insert, but for the life of me cant figure out how to get the sim (P3DV5.3) to recognise the individual flap position relative to each 'notch', ie 1-Up, 2-Approach, 3-Down. The closest I get is up , miss the second notch, approach on the third notch, down on 4th. Why does it miss the first notch?

Is there a mod that allows different detent positions for different aircraft?
