Hey All, Thank you for all the information, we narrowed down the issue to an instancing problem with single pass rendering. We have corrected this issue inside internal builds. For the time being if you are experiencing to many issues with single pass use the stereo mode. We are still actively worki...

Hey mdchase,

Currently the primitive PDK draws do not support applying a texture, however we will consider this for a future enhancement to the system.

Thanks,

Hey iBlueYonder, You can add a second UV channel inside 3Ds Max to any mesh to be used by any texture. The whole process takes place inside 3Ds max if you do not want to do material scripting. The easiest way to accomplish this inside 3Ds Max is to apply a Unwrap UVW modifier and go to Map Channel. ...

Hey Vince, Switching between AA types does not require a restart. Unfortunately, it sounds like with your combination of settings it isn't possible to maintain decent FPS due to the amount of per pixel work. Dynamic lighting per pixel is very expensive, the light count and size of light influence be...

Hey Both,

Dynamic lights inside Prepar3D are created through the special effect files and systems. We added a new tab to the VisualFX tool called light to make this process easier. The documentation for this is inside the Special Effect page inside the Learning Center.

Thanks,
-Kevin.

Hey All, We simplified the options for the shadow distances as Beau mentioned. We now handle calculating the actual distances based on checked options. We already were not fully respecting all the sliders distances if certain flags were selected in V3 since behind the scenes there are only two shado...

Hey Tonaz, These values are not documented because they have been depreciated. They were used for controlling attenuation of the light emitted by the effect, similar to older OpenGL and DirectX fixed function params. The attenuation is linear now without those params and is based on the size of the ...

Hey Chok, We tried to replicate the above screen shot in Dubai and were unable to get any lights to show up. We attempted loading at the location and flying in without any success inside the internal builds. What version of Dubai are you using? Have you been able to get into cases were they did not ...

Hey Lukasv, Thanks for the information, we were not seeing this issue with the z bias scenery airports we were testing with. You may want to make sure all the layers you want to sort do not have a 0 z bias. A z bias of 0 will not be considered to be sorted against your other layers, which maybe lead...

Hey Lukasv, The issue is likely stemming from the fact that you are using alpha blending, which currently isn't supported for the layering. There is a limitation for the layers to not have alpha. You may want to follow the SDK material settings for best results. We understand the limitation and will...

The first request/issue should be resolved in the next release, thank you for supporting Prepar3D and bringing this to our attention.

Thanks,

Hello Naruto,

The SetFov function should be in degrees.

Thanks,
-Kevin.

Hey Ron,

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention, this issue should be fixed in the next release.

Thanks,
-Kevin.

Hey Brain, Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention, we believe this should be resolved in the next release. It appears the effects that are spawning are spawning due to surface conditions being outdated. A possible work around in the meantime would be removing the fx_WetEngineWash and fx_...
