- Overhauled Update Process: Users will benefit from automatic update notifications, patch support, and an installation process that no longer requires uninstalling components before updating.
HUGE plus in my opinion.

You should try right clicking on the Prepar3d icon, go into properties and tick the "disable fullscreen optimisations" box. Set the gpu to 30fps, unlimited in the application and restart everything. .
Going to give this a try, quick question, how do I set the GPU to 30fps AND unlimited at the same time?
Is there another setting or app I am missing?
thanks

Rod,
Can you please post some pics of Orlando & Tampa Bay area. Thanks.
These are over Tampa Bay, first set is looking at KTPA (NOTE I have FlyTampa KTPA and it blends perfectly) with downtown in the back ground, Then one right over the bay overlooking St. Petersburg (notice the details in the bay water), then looking at the nice job they did on MacDill AFB (which is where we go to watch airshows), then KPIE St. Pete/Clearwater International, then 2 shots of downtown, NOTE I was way to low in these downtown Tampa picts, kinda blurry.
Haven't been to Orlando yet.

I have flown over Tampa, and it blends pretty good with FlyTampa KTPA, (although I would like to turn off the old surrounding coverage that FT KTPA has with it keeping the stadium and International plaza) AND I have flown out of KMIA and over to the beach (in an Active Sky rainstorm with the newest Traffic Global) and I am getting pretty good frames (steady 30 to 50'ish). Here is how it blends, note I turned off the LVR city and surrounding areas....so that is all Orbx.
NOTE I also have South West Florida airport and Ft Lauderdale form LVR running as well, so not too bad performance wise. NOTE as well, those 2 last shots are with LVR KMIA in the background.
PS: I hope it's ok that I post some screen shots up in this thread, if not you can delete them.

Not sure if anyone uses this or not, but FSWidgets GMap HD works with P3D v4.
It's not listed as compatible but it works because of the SimConnect I assume because FSX and P3D are pretty much the same thing to SimConnect.

Is it possible to have P3Dv5 on the same drive as P3D v6?
in Prepar3D
Posted · Edited by RobC
Hello Rod, VERY nice! Which one's are which? Are the top two from V5 and the Bottom 3 from V6?
And just as a side note, in a FB post one of the creators over at A2A told the community that he didn't mind if people wanted to try to use the A2A planes in v6 but that because of current projects for MSFS they did not have the manpower to make them fully compatible and that there will be NO support "at this time", so I tried this:
Copy your 2 folders (A2A and Accu-Feel...if you use it) from "C:\Users\<me>\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons" into "C:\Users\<me>\Documents\Prepar3D v6 Add-ons" and they seem to work pretty well. (NOTE: So far Accu-Feel also works with all of my A2A and Carenado planes, the Carenado planes can be installed normally using the same technique as installing into v5)
Keep in mind that I use the Reality XP GTN/GNS so when I first compiled them over they were set to use those and at first I had no GPS, BUT since then Reality has updated their apps to be fully compatible with v5 and 6, and now my GPS works flawlessly.
Here is a screenshot of the A2A 182 with the reality GPS (ALSO keep in mind, that if you are going to change the GPS in the A2A configurator, you MUST do it in v5 and copy the folder over, as the configurators do not see the v6 installation!!)
