Re: Lack of ozone contribution in EA sky

Is it possible to further improve this mod by also including similar adjustment to the illumination level of physical objects i.e. simobjects, terrain, water etc at dusk/dawn like has been done for fog and classic clouds? As even though the sky and cloud brightness is now more realistic but the illu...

P3D v5 autogen buildings causing stutter when panning

Setting anything above sparse autogen building density is causing stutter when panning view or turning aircraft or rotating in slew. Reducing to sparse or low density makes it perfectly smooth. This problem did not occur in p3d v4.

Re: Arrival AI aircraft descend to terrain

I can confirm this, the injection of the AI Traffic after starting the sim is strange. The ai aircrafts are injected at high altitudes above 30000 feet but already close to the airport about 20 miles or less. This is ending in a steep descent and ends mostly on ground far away from the airport like...

Arrival AI aircraft descend to terrain

It seems there is a bug in p3d v4 where if an arrival AI happens to spawn in close proximity to the extended centerline of the landing runway, either due to direction of origin airport in case of bgl compiled plans or the last waypoint in AI injected with a flight plan, the AI starts to descend at a...

Sound related p3d v4 CTD

While investigating possible random crashes due to AI traffic during sim sessions, found that if I rapidly cycle among AIs with A key and simultaneously with Q key quickly switch on and off the sound a few times I can cause p3d to crash quickly and repeatably, with both default and addon AI traffic....

AI taxipath priority need fixing

On noticing several traffic log jams at airports than expected, it seems that there is a flaw in how the AI are given priority to taxiways for paths assigned to them causing otherwise avoidable hold ups. It looks like that if taxiway assigned paths of two AIs have a section in common in opposite dir...

Re: Correct sound setup for headphones?

Thanks for the info. After some search found the manufacturer does not provide virtual surround software for the headphones in use. However also found that the emulated surround is known to cause distortion in sounds and other undesirable artifacts beside its imperfections making it worse than direc...

Frame rate interpolation for better fluidity

P3D being a single cpu core bottlenecked for performance, it is almost impossible to maintain 60fps with addons that are popularly used to take full advantage of the platform and require changes as overclocking to even achieve 30fps without sacrificing significantly in display quality. It might be u...

[RESOLVED] Correct sound setup for headphones?

In using headphones with p3d what is the correct way to setup sound device so that directional sounds are heard correctly? In win 7 there seems to be only a stereo mode selectable that shows two speakers in front which perhaps produce stereophonics according to that sound source placement, which may...

Re: P3D v4.1 Ghost propeller engine noise

The sound bug is an annoyance here as well, don't know what exactly causes the ghost sounds to trigger. The Q method works only sometimes and not others. Perhaps the sound engine is too dated to handle all the quantity and needs to be upgraded to current tech similar to graphics.

Re: System date startup screen

Restore time on move is unchecked but I suppose it doesn't have a use at the startup screen, the issue is only related to the startup screen not the in sim change of location after scenario launch. Tried disabling all addon scenery and modules which didn't change the result. After further trial it s...

Re: System date startup screen

I will try to be more specific to reproduce the issue: 1. Have your default flight set to the stock prepar3d default scenario 2. Launch p3d app 3. At startup screen note the date, tick the GMT time check box 4. Change airport to YSSY Sydney and press ok to return to main startup screen 5. Check the ...

Hi 1. Launch p3d 2. Mark the GMT Time checkbox on the startup screen 3.

On taking further look at the default flight, p3d is not changing to the flight's saved date as...

System date startup screen

It is nice to see GMT time working normally in current version of p3d v4 when changing a location with gmt box checked. However a small bug remains as upon changing the location while the gmt remains preserved, the date changes to that of the saved default flight. Hope this also gets fixed in the ne...
