      Sim-wings London Heathrow Prof for P3dv5 config tool issue 1

      By Goofey007 · Posted

      Hi,   First of all I want to say thank you for all the work you do to make this scenery available for p3dv5. I spent some time this weekend to install my first addons into P3dv5 London Heathrow Prof V5 2.0.0.1 is among them 😊 I ran in some issues with the config tool. The installer automatically registers the scenery into P3dv5 (Through xml-addon) However the config tool claims that the scenery is not registered   Because the scenery is already installed I am not using this tool for the moment. Does anyone have simular experience?   Thanks in advance   Johan

      CFD not connecting

      By mikael 140 · Posted

      Hello everyone ! :-) I have still the same problem, I have the latest version of A330 and I'm in P3D v4.5... Any ideas ? I try to check on Internet but I only see people downloading "himachi" or something like that... But I already heard that was not a good idea. Take care and thank you ! :) Best Regards

      FPS being taxed every ca 30 secs from high 80 to low 20 and then up again

      By mpo910 · Posted

      @DaveCT2003 Dave. I hope you are doing well?   I think I did found the cullprit. It seems to be related to Navigraph/Simlink. If using Navigraph then every 30 seconds my FPS went down from high 50is to low 20is. In VR even worse (of course)   This is only when using Navigraph charts and before starting P3D being logged in via the Axx configurator (Green confirmation that I am logged in).   After a time flying suddenly my FPS dropped. This FPS drop exists over 60 Seconds! After 60 Seconds it goes up again to normal behaviour. Then it goes down again after exactly 30 seconds. This lasts again 60 seconds....and so far and so on.   Logging out during flight from Axx Configurator and reloading the EFB (Double click) does not seem to have any influence.   BUT: I did shutdown P3D. Also I logged me out of Axx Configurator and disabled simlink addon.xml.   Now I reloaded my saved flight. No FPS stays stable and does not drop after a couple of hours flying.    The issues seems to be the combination of A330 with Navigraph charts.    I already thought that and also mentioned that in my posts earlier.   Now I tested it and I may have located the issue nearer.    Is the EFB trying to "reconnect" Navigraph and some processes "hammer" the system so worse that the FPS may suffer?   Please take a look into this. Because I would like to use the A330 with Navigraph. Now it is unusable in this way.   My latest Simlink version is downloaded this morning and does not have any positive effect on this.   Version: navigraph-simlink-win-1.1.14.0524   With 1.0.2.0 Aerosoft Airbus 330   My System specs: Prepar3D_v5_Academic_5.0.24.34874 Edition Windows 10 Home Version 2004 Installed on 20200501 OS Build 1904.208 Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 120.2202.130.0 Latest Nvidia Drivers HMD VR WMR HP Reverb v2 i7 8700K all cores to 5.1 GhZ HT OFF 32 GB RAM 3600 MhZ Corsair Vengeance RTX Titan 24GB 32" Samsung UHD Monitor using highest resolution Addons ASP3D 7434 Open Beta ChasePlane (via ORBX) GSX 2 Airbus A330 1.0.2.0 PMDG 747/748 QW787 V1.3.0 Navigraph Charts/Simlink ORBX Base ORBX LC ORBX TE NL ORBX Regions ORBX HD Buildings ORBX HD Trees Several Addon Aiports all by .xml method installed

      Konfiguration Saitek Pro Flight Yoke

      By fms737 · Posted

      Hallo Uwe, zunächst einmal vielen Dank für Deine schnelle Rückmeldung. Ja ich meine, dass man den Schubhebel, der ja eine Skala von 0-100 hat, unter die Nullstellung zurückzieht und damit den Umkehrschub auslösen kann. Es kann durchaus sein, dass das unter P3D nicht funktioniert. Vielleicht kannst Du mir erklären, wie das FSUIPC funktioniert. Ich habe die registrierte Version. Danke schon einmal im voraus. LG Claus
