Re: P3D V5 Hotfix 2 ?

I disagree. "You said two weeks and it's not here. I want at least an explanation why." "Communicate with me why it's not here. It's been over 3 weeks since you said '2 weeks ago.'" Another confirmation of the reason to NEVER give a time frame for a release. You want to know &qu...

Re: Full Screen Mode has changed

No problem here either. I always usea big monitor full screen with a smaller one for Little Nav Map, Active Sky, etc. Never had an issue in either v4 or v5.

Re: When will Floating Houses Ever be Fixed ?

This has been present since FSX. It's annoying but for most, is not a show stopper. Obviously it is important to you. In the world of software development this is what would be called a low priority issue meaning simply - it will get fixed when someone has time to include it after the higher priorit...

Re: I need to install v4.3 but how?

4.5 is working just fine for me. If your addons work in 4.3 they should all work in 4.5.

I always keep a copy of the prior release JIC I have a problem.Once I'm confident all is well I may delete it.

Re: 4.3 HUD issues - blanks out on landings on some aircraft

Are you using any camera utilities like TrackIR and/or ChasePlane? You might just be seeing acceleration /deceleration effects which change your eyepoint and cause the HUD to disappear.

Re: Prepar3D Icon Changes Location on Boot-Up

Hi Robert -

By some chance do you have your desktop icons set to auto arrange?

Rightclick desktop - view - uncheck auto arrange.

Re: new exe.xml logic in P3Dv4.2?

Not positive BUT I don't believe you can run an exe file from the addon.cfg or addon.xml file.
Is the path correct in exe.xml file. Check permissions on file? Is it enabled in exe.xml?

Re: PC Keeps Restarting

You mention running multiple stress tests ob CPU, GPU & memory. DId you test them individually or in combination. Get a program called OCCT and run it for at least an hour in the default test - it will stress your CPU,GPU & memory together much as P3D does. I've had systems that have passed ...

I disable ANY type of "real time protection" for that very reason. Just about any of the AV, Malware and security suites will try to set that up. For the paranoid out there, unless you are incapable of watching what you click on, you don't really need it - at least not when using the sim. ...

Re: Landing gear up/down buttons

Well, probably because it's not that important to many. I use FSUIPC to program all controllers so I have an up/down switch but the toggle was just fine with me.
