    Do you have the correct versions of the aircraft for the sim? FSX versions do not work in p3Dv3 (or v4, for that matter)

    CLS MD-80 does not work in P3D V4. Problem solved.

    ONLY if one installs the Content .msi. Just the client wont do anything at all, but the content includes a lot of files that could have been overwritten by aftermarket replacements, so do the research before uninstalling the old and installing the new as you WONT be able to recover any amended files.

    If I won the Lotto, you'd never hear from me again. Real plane, real destinations, no time or inclination for simming. Sorry, but it's a poor substitute for real flying. I'd also buy a luxury yacht and a seaplane so I could live outside 12 mile limits and never pay tax ever again. Not a huge yacht, mind. Only a 60-80 metre yacht that has space for me, my family and friends on a continuous holiday cycle using small jet charters to deliver to nearby seaplane bases for transit. And it wouldn't be one of those poofy super yachts. Mine would be an Expedition yacht for going places. And the places I would go!

    Buy ORBX. UTX can mix with ORBX but at the end of the day ORBX is designed to work `wholistically`. As long as you don't use all the options on FTX Vector (I turn off tertiary roads) the combo of FTX Global, Vector and OpenLC is the current sweet spot. There is far m ore ongoing development with FTX. However, if you had already invested in UTX, or ORBX wasn't on special, the advice would be different. ORBX has a page on their website to tell you precisely what each product does.

    Global adds nothing to system load - it's a texture replacement. Vector is s different kettle of fish. Then for the ORBX freeware you need the ORBX libraries up to 2 gigs of additional textures (never less than 650 meg). And kerrycorcoran your system is an order of magnitude beyond what the OP presents with... you should start your own thread.

    Not with any semblance of performance, no And certainly not if you add any ORBX addons.

    I said make a clean install of the latest driver. DDU and a clean install. You may have remnants of a previous driver from the basic Win 10 reinstallation.

    As I said: Nothing to do with the sim and don't bother to search on FSX for that error, it's to do with the shell extensions for the cards Nvidia Control Panel. You don't mention whether you've tried a driver update, but now you should. Make it a clean install of the latest driver - 372.70

    If no error message, this implies a hardware issue - power supply, memory or DirectX. Start there As this is on a default installation, the issue won't be with the software.

    There is more than one SimConnect module. Sounds like you installed less than all of them.

    You don't delete the shader files, you delete the shader cache.

    Of your story maybe, I've successfully flown the aircraft for around 200 hours, fixing most thing as I go along, then the occasional full maintenance hangar reset. The most common cause of `not random` failures are: 1: Idiot owners who don't know how to fly the aircrfat without breaking it or 2: Idiot owners who don't have their sim setup precisely as recommended by A2A in their extensive manual. Then there are a statistically small number of idiot owners who didn't install it correctly, as Bill says. Spot the common cause?

    I can tell you its not the product. It's your use of it, You've obviously got something wrong in your handling of the aircraft, or your setting up if the sim for it. If you don't understand what the persisten damage model does in A2A aircraft does then you need to learn. But you can't pursue this by repeating the half-baked version of what you are actually providing over in the correct forum, so frankly I don't know what you expect from us? It is not a problem with the product so perhaps the best solution is that you delete it. I suggest this topic is locked as its clearly going nowhere now that you have done so.

    Thre is nothing wrong with the autopilot . So there MUST be something wrong with either: 1: Your operation of it or 2: Your installation of it. As you have an support topic loaded and running on the developers website, and are adding info over there you are not putting in over here, I'm unsure what you expect of us? Anywho, we've identified the source of your problem, now we can leave it to A2A to fix it.

    Like most simmers, I keep things interesting by buying and installing stuff, then complaining about it. :p
