Thanks Vic, sounds great!

I bet it does run P3d beautifully!

John

I would agree with this completely.

I look forward to using P3D on a daily basis, something I could never have said about FSX.

John

By the way Vic, I see, you lucky man, that your CPU speed...

Me too.

I thought I had jumped to the second page of the thread by mistake!

I would be interested in how well it has done, sales-wise, too.

My sytem must be the inverse of everyone else's!

What fixes things for me messes up others!

As I said before I think I will just wait and see what happens re updates and P3D fixes before I...

Another bit of fiddling reveals the CTD on closing P3D with the Dash 8 only occurs if I have been using P3D in windowed mode.
It seems to behave as expected when using full screen.

The new update...

Hi Todd, I did try the simlauncher idea and it did give just a slight lurch on loading the Dash, but if I try to change planes or exit P3D I still get a CTD which I have never had at all in P3D,...

My set-up of P3D, unlike FSX, is totally reliable and if I want to take a plane for a flight to practice navigation or emergency procedures then that is what I do, without any worries about whether I...

Thanks for the explanation about legacy mode, Wizzards.

For some reason it won't work on my computer, so my Dash is still misbehaving and causing CTDs.

Looks like I will have to wait for the...

Todd,
I bought it assuming like every other fsx aircraft I have tried in P3D, it would work OK. ( I have the migration tool operating, and do not have fsx installed at all).

Unfortunately, if I...

Yes, thanks for that Vic.

I am happy, as I was before anyway, that I am using the most suitable flight simulator for my requirements and P3D fulfils my expectations of what I expect from a...

there are others, but Proatc/x, which is designed to work in P3D as well as FSX, is my current favourite and is constantly being improved.
There is a review of it on the home page of this site.

I too would like a written manual, but they are very time consuming to produce and as so many new features are being added, or modified , on a regular basis it would probably be best to wait until...

Thanks h, I thought that would be the case. It seems that Proatc is allocating the wrong ATIS frequency and therefore the ATIS message won't start, probably due to some network mismatch in reading...

I just tried opening the ATC menu in both full screen and windowed mode, and it was non-transparent and did go full screen very briefly in full screen mode, but I use "fully expanded" windowed mode...

Mark, I think a lot of us use Fs2P3D without any problems, in fact I don't know where I would be without it!
I tried to work out what it is up to but it seems so complicated that I gave up and just...

Mark, there must be something fundamentally not configured correctly in your system, as I have not heard of this problem before with P3D and Windows 7. Maybe I just have not read about it of course...

Very good question!

From what I have gleaned from reading forum posts elsewhere there are some who will not even prod P3D with a very long pole to give it a try..it is free to try as you can get...

At the moment Proatc/x, previously Radar Contact with Multicrew experience, and also I have used Voxatc but only using the "first Officer" mode to save me having to try to speak "ATC jagon" which,...

Pardon my ignorance, but what is the ATC glitch thing?

I have only ever used aftermarket ATC in P3d, never the native one so I am not sure what actually happens with this glitch.

Hi Vic, Sorry would have replied earlier, but have been away from my computer.
I have used RC for many years in FSX and have used it in P3d and find it does the job but I have been looking for...

Proatc/x, or Radar Contact used with MCE.

Proatc is under continuous development which makes it particularly interesting, compared to RC, especially as voice control will be included in the near...

Also bear in mind the latest Nvidia drivers may not work best with your system and P3d, and nvidia inspector 1.97 could be buggy as it is a beta I believe.

For reference I am using nvidia drivers...

Glad it worked.

I use one of the add-on ATC programs rather than the inbuilt one so I have never experienced the ATC screen problem.

Should be fixed in the next version though, hopefully, for...

It has been found that in the settings/controls menu you have to make sure the sensitivity sliders are set to maximum and null sliders to minimum, for some reason.That may help with your joystick,...

I have no interest any more in tweaking, problem solving and otherwise tuning apart from the initial install and set-up.

I want to be flying, not messing about with the parameters. This may be due...
