I'm suffering with the *realistic* tiller system of FSLabs. It's only because I'm a average mouse yoke user. It's unknown as to why FSLabs does not support autorudder. It's a burning issue for people out there, like me, who solely uses mouse yoke for flying for some reason. I know we can use the MCDU to activate sticky tiller disco button but then you have to steer using the keyboard, which is unbelievably difficult. Is there any other way to steer the aircraft on ground using mouse & keyboard? If so, that would be really helpful. Thanks!

some first shoots on P3D v4 for the most popular addon in the entire sim world guys i hope you like it. ;P cheers

Can you run Prepar3dv4 with dual GPUs? How's your performance in SLI?

All I want to say is this - LM will have to rework/reprogram this whole Dynamic Lights system of theirs. On my very decent system with GTX 1070 the FPS plummet down a mine shaft when you switch them on. During the day my FPS is locked at 30 and it remains on 29+ all the way with 2xSSAA and 'Use High Res' on and most sliders full or 75% ... BUT at night the FPS dies a brutal death! Even with MSAA and High Res OFF it hovers below 20 FPS. When you switch the DL off it's back to normal but then you loose landing/taxi lights and all other effects that begs the question: if DL is suppose to have its effect at night then why be the killer? This is NOT the PMDG 738 but the whole DL system in general and in particular. I hope PMDG and other developers are in contact with LM to sort this out. #gatvol

Does anyone know how to update Prepar3dv4 navigation data with Navigraph? (I have a subscription) Please advise... Best,

It was one cold winter night in Newark, where N14011 (one of United Airlines' 13 operational Boeing 787-10s) was prepping up for its next transatlantic flight with quite a lot of passengers waiting to board and be whisked away to someplace warm and vibrant to celebrate their Christmas & New Year holidays, offering some temporary respite out of the stressful life work & errands inflicted in one of the world's most iconic cities. Everything seemed usual, just like its fellow jetliners being catered at EWR's Terminal C - Exclusively occupied by this chunk of the 'US3'. Where might this Dreamliner be headed to, you ask ? Well, this flight was numbered UAL55, not a valid United flight number IRL. The destination, meanwhile, would be similar to the likes of Nice, Palermo, or Dubrovnik which United has started serving recently albeit with the Boeing 767-300ER (the ones available for P3D aren't exactly good tho, so :P) - Vacation spots where the Mediterranean weather delivers pleasant ambiance year-round with temperatures that allow one to enjoy the gorgeous beaches and vibrant street scenes. Yes, this is possible despite the current situation the real world is facing due to the fact that the world in flightsims are basically parallel universes. Our destination airport for this flight deserves some attention too, being the 3rd largest Airport in its country of jurisdiction (eclipsed only by the megahub gateway Airports operating in this country), and yet ... No long-haul flights are operating out of it, even vacation charters.. You may have guessed it at this point. That's right, we're heading to Palma de Mallorca, whose Airport handled more passengers than any other Airports in Spain except Madrid Barajas & Barcelona El Prat, alongside facilities ready to accept long-haul flights. After preparations & boarding, we soon pushed back and taxied to Runway 22R, while offering the skyline of NYC & glimpse of the errands that can be temporarily forgotten. It didn't take long (surprisingly, due to how complicated EWR's taxiway layout can be ... Coupled with the super heavy traffic this airport endured that would bring even high-end crypto mining systems to its knees) before we arrived at runway 22R. A fellow 737-800 departed before us however. Soon it was our turn to go, mostly carrying those wanting some respite out of errands @ work or wishing to meet family members back at their hometown Waving goodbye to one of the world's core cities where its economic activities have wide-ranging effects worldwide. ----------------------- 6.5 hours later, having crossed 'the pond' in total darkness ------------------------------------------------------------ The sun's starting to rise as we approached our TOD, offering a glance on what the people onboard could expect of their destination. We began our descent right above Barcelona, as we entered the airspace over the Mediterranean Sea. It wasn't long before starboard-side passengers were offered some gorgeous views of the Balearic Islands, where they'll have fun until the new year comes around ... And the warmth of the sun shining hope for an enjoyable vacation. Soon enough, we turned to base for our arrival into LEPA. A smooth kiss to Runway 24R of Palma de Mallorca, having endured 7 hours since departure from the other side of the Atlantic. Delight filled our faces, as we've delivered our passengers safely to their holiday getaways 🙂 getting clear of the runway so that the next arrival (already appearing as a white speck among the clouds) could be accommodated - It turned out to be a Vueling A320. Some guidance to the gates, please - this is our 1st time visiting PMI. Got instructed to taxi to Module A of LEPA - the concourse is aimed at handling non-Schengen passengers. Any future intercontinental flights in and out of PMI, therefore, will likely use this terminal module. Arrived @ gate 12 of PMI module A, ready to drop our passengers off into an enjoyable vacation ~ We also got some British company at the terminal too 😄 ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Well, hope you enjoy this theoretical charter I created. I feel like EWR - PMI may have the chance to be served in the future (even as a seasonal), considering United's recent expansion to cities around the Mediterranean coast, catering to holidaymakers. Best of luck for PMI too in getting longhauls - they deserve some love in that regard 💌

Hi, I just wanted to know how close to the release of the 777 for v4 we were. Is there an estimated date ? I hope by this week ! Thanks for answering !

If A/T is engaged, with MCP Speed, and AP is off, do you have to manually RETARD before Vref? Kind regards,

Hello! Does someone know if FSTramp is going to be updated for Prepar3dv4? and...also: does someone know how to transform the nav lights of ai planes (they are very big balloons from far) thanks!!!

I've tried searching up the internet just to get this fixed. Or maybe, just make it a bit better. Jagged lines & textures are inevitable in 1080p monitors like mine, but, I believe there's a way to make it look a bit better. The ground textures, taxiway linings, edges of buildings, static objects, aircrafts, everything looks jaggy but the one that really gets me is the jagged linings on aircraft wings & fuselage. Especially the FSLabs Airbus, Aerosoft A330, PMDG 777, 747, I've tried a few MSAA & AA combinations but they don't seem to help ;( I also did play around with Nvidia application settings, but no help. Around the leading edge:- linings in the fuselage:- The entire aircraft itself lol:- & also sometimes in the cockpit gauges that makes it difficult to read:-

What is the best a320 add-on for prepar3d? For the 737 I am using PMDG and the 787 QW Craig Owen Duffield

Hi guys, As the title suggests, my a2a planes were still not discovered by the new installer. My carenado and Aerosoft discus were found without any issues but the a2a planes were not. I know others have got it working fine so it has to be something with my set up. Any ideas? Also I couldn't get the sound output to come from my headset even though I had it set in the voiceconfig.exe and within the sim. Cheers

I can not move the view point at all (773 in p3d v4)
