Re: F-16.... Which Block?

According to the Aerosoft product page, it's probably a Block 50 or 52.

Re: Valve Index - anyone have any tips for performance?

The settings that impact performance the most for me (i9-9900k and RTX 2080Ti) are (in this order): [*] The amout of SS (Super sampling) set in Steam VR - Try lowering the SS [*] Autogen draw distance (max Medium) - Try Low (very CPU bound) [*] Autogen building density (max Normal) - Try Low (very ...

Is the F-16 usable at all in VR ?
Last time I tried it, the cockpit was out of scale, way too small, like a plane for kids. Did they fix that ?

Re: Acer ah101 Windows Mixed Reality

A bit late to answer, sorry. But all "Windows Mixed Reality" helmets will work perfectly with P3Dv4.5. You will need to install some software: - Windows Mixed Reality (installed automatically when you will plug your helmet to your computer for the first time) - Steam (and create a Steam ac...

Re: F22 no brakes

Have you tried using the mouse wheel instead of the left/right click ? I don't remember exactly how to operate the F-22, but just like all other aircrafts made by IRIS, the way to operate the switches and buttons in the virtual cockpit is sometimes a bit surprising. You just need to find the correct...

Updated F-16 cockpit in 4.5 content ?

Hi all, I have just gone through the fixes&improvements list for the 4.5 update and saw several modifications for the default F-16. I'm using P3Dv4.4 right now and I never use the F-16 because in VR, the cockpit is way too small. Does anybody knows if the cockpit size/scale has been fixed in 4.5...

Re: IRIS - Warthog Driver II

I forgot to mention another issue: for some unknown reason, the throttle bodies dissapear from the VC upon pressing the engine starter buttons. If I'm not mistaken, I've seen a similar issue mentioned here in another thread, maybe ? I believe it was happening on the default F-22, which is also made ...

Re: IRIS - Warthog Driver II

This aircraft is not supported officially for P3Dv4, but it works quite well, as far as I've seen. I don't remember if I have tested it in 4.4, but it was definitely ok in 4.3, including its TacPack features... excepted the FLIR screen, which is the only thing I couldn't get to work. From my underst...

Re: C-130J has wrong Flight Deck

Just like most of the default planes (a few are inherited from FSX), the C-130 was provided by a third-party company.
The CaptainSim C-130 is the only C-130 ever made for FSX, and the repaints for the original payware models will also work on the default C-130 (since it's the same model...).

Re: Multiplayer in 4.3

I can simply confirm I'm also having problems to host a session with the native multiplayer mode in P3Dv4.3 and 4.4. When I log in, I do not see any sessions in the list. So I create a session for 4 players, then I tell my IP adress to my friends so that they can use the "connect directly"...

Re: missing rain drops on windshield when raining

Yes, they blink always in the same spot, if I'm not mistaken.
And I see them both on the front and on the side windows.

Re: missing rain drops on windshield when raining

Sorry for the delay. I have made a new test and looked more closely at the windshield. The rain effect is here, indeed, but very faint. I can only see it when the clouds are in the background. I cannot spot them if I have darker background. So, it seems the effet works, but is very very very transpa...

Re: missing rain drops on windshield when raining

Hi Poppet, thanks a lot for your reply. :) I confirm I had uninstalled the 4.0 content prior to installing the 4.3 content. Also, I have already regenerated the shaders (deletion and restart) several times since I installed the 4.3 content. Do the rain effect depend on any graphic setting of the sim...
