mallcott Posted October 1, 2018 Share Posted October 1, 2018 Hello again Regarding smooth display I found the following youtube video which shows how to change the settings for an Nvidia card as well as changing some settings within PR3D when the monitor is set to 60Hz monitors (as I have). In it the author uses NVidia Inspector (software) to change the following settings for the profile PR3D Frame Rate Limiter - change to 30 Triple Buffering - set to ON Vertical Sync - set to HALF REFRESH RATE Do you have any thoughts on this? Yes. Complete waste of time. Using software to make other software work better is a bit like walking in the middle of the motorway thinking "That'll slow them down..." It's bound to end in tears... As for the other thing: Have you tried scrolling the upper display? The Show Only favorites should be a fixed selection window in the middle of the left hand side, between the Vehicle selection window and the aircraft image box. If you have the Favorites applied to every aircraft selection that might be the consequence - try unchecking one or two of the default aircraft Paint1, Paint2 or Paint 3. That should see it reappear.

jparnold Posted October 2, 2018 Author Share Posted October 2, 2018 Hello Mallcott, Thanks for your suggestions. As you or someone else mentioned setting the refresh rate on the monitor to 30Hz (which I could not) I thought that using the NVidia card settings to do it would be a good idea. Anway I'm now not going there. Regarding the aircraft selection screen and Show Only Favorites, I have tried scrolling EVERY area within the Select Vehicle screen and the only section which scrolls is the vehicle selection area. I have unchecked everything and still I do not see it. Maybe I am looking incorrectly - could you include a screen shot of the vehicle selection screen on your system so that I can verify I am looking in the correct area?

mallcott Posted October 2, 2018 Share Posted October 2, 2018 Of course! The `Show Only Favorites` button was briefly removed in an earlier version of P3D! So you don't currently have P3Dv4.3 installed! I would suggest you sort that out first as on the first page you referred to P3Dv4 but never expanded on the actual version. Install P3Dv4.3.29.25520, the latest variant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jparnold Posted October 2, 2018 Author Share Posted October 2, 2018 Thanks Mallcott No my vehicle selection screen does not show that and I wonder why. The only part of that screen which I can scroll is where you select the aircraft/vehicle. Very strange. Maybe I should uninstall/reinstall John Gigabyte Z390 UD Intel Core i7-9700K 3.60 Ghz Dual 16Gb DDR4 2666 Gigabyte RTX2060 OC 6GB 2 X 256MB SSD drives 1 X 500GB HDD Windows 10 64bit Home Logitech Extreme 3D Pro joystick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vgbaron Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 Before you do that -what is the exact version number of your P3D? Run it select help/about. Also do you have ANY custom dpi or text sizes set in your system? If you have the correct version, a complete reinstall may be best.

jparnold Posted October 10, 2018 Author Share Posted October 10, 2018 The show only favorites is now displayed as I have upgraded to version 4.3.29.25520. Are there any other noticeable improvements with this version?

stretch Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 Hi jparnold, I had this same anomaly after a fresh install of Prepar 3-D 4.3 Drove me nuts for about three days. What I finally noticed was...it happened after I installed third party add-on aircraft. This is what worked for me: After I installed a new aircraft, I went immediately and deleted the main P3D config file. Then opened the simulator and let it go to the default flight. Choose a new aircraft, stutters were gone. Tried this on four different aircraft, worked every time. Even with good solid frame rates I was getting the (micro stutter) every three seconds. I am hoping this method might help you. Blue Skies, Aaron Skysong Soundworks Aaron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Answer: STOP introducing aircraft not intended for P3Dv4 into P3Dv4... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
