Hi guys happy new year,ive been away from the forum for a while due too health reasons tho im slowly getting back into it again
now a question,i have now updated too the new version of p3d 5.3 without the hot fix and all is well ecept how do i get Orbx central too recognize p3d5 in the drop down menu?like i have p3d4 and xplanes ect,ive installed P3d5.3 on my G harddrive not the C default hard drive,just need it too connect with cental so i can re add all the scenery and stuff hopefully by using sync option in central??any ideas are very much welcomed thankyou gents.

Hello,

Gday nick thanks again for the link,i tried what it suggested and everything was already enabled permission wise,this microsoft sim is on its own seperate drive and i dont use this sim alot,tho mayble it might have been a windows update which cause this,tho i might uninstall it and then reinstall it too see what happens,both of the other sims lockheed martin sims pdv4 and pdv5.1 are running fine,but these are on seperate drives too.

REX SF supports v5, I get the bar at the top telling me it's syncing weather info to sim and it looks like the correct weather as per the REX report in the app....if you see my thread showing A320 from EGGD to EIDW weather was provided by REX and the was p3dv5.2 hf1...
thanks for the update and indeed it works,tho i get a really foggy visibility which i think is unrealistic,your shots are fantastic,i have disabled volumetric cloud layers within the sim and the clouds look better,tho ive tried disabling this fog layer in rex and the sim and it doesnt disable,even flying at 41000 feet i get a silly looking haze and the same when on the ground,when i shut rex down the fog layer improves a little.

Awesome shots indeed,has rex weather updated too the latest P3d5.2 yet?

Thanks again for your help 7829 is the beta version for p3dv5.2,and thanks Wayne an active sky connection update was done and thanks Aussie123 yes i did this also in the option part of the sim,it prompt me on this when i fired up the sim after the install
Now a question ive got this sim installed on my G drive and not the default location c if there anyone with the same sort of scenario it being installed on another drive can point me on the dirction of the correct install path?thanks.
-
Gday nick even when im in the simulator and have selected a airport of choice and a flightplan,it will still hang and then a yellow triangle will show up saying there is a connection issue cant find the simulator,tried the delete and update thing many times but i really appreciate your help

I have been on P3D v4.5HF3, Active Sky for P3d V4, and REX Environment Force for a long time. They have been working well together.
Anyhow, decided last week to buy P3d V5.2 full install, along with an upgrade of Active Sky 3D (to 5.2 beta?).
Both installed OK. Active Sky starts and connects OK to P3D for me. However, the clouds look horrible to me after having REX Skyforce and REX Environment Force that I am used to on V4.5.
I did go from FSUIPC5 to FSUIPC6 for another reason (ProSim 737 needs it)
Active Sky does throw up an error box saying the '3D Connect' is the wrong version but I think that is for Radar screens that I don't use. After that it is fine.
I must say Orbx ground scenery on V5.2 looks terrific. Great increase in frame rates as well. Just need to get the sky looking as good. I'm not sure if anyone has REX Skyforce working with P3d V5.2 yet. They say that they have a Technical Upgrade v2.6 in the pipeline?
Sorry I can't help.
Aussie
Thanks for your reply Aussie,yes the sim looks great i must agree there could be a bug in the connections,as it is in Beta i guess

Gday gents just a long shot here and i know this isnt a weather Forum and you can delete this topic as i would understand tho i guess many of you are active sky users?? and i have lodge a couple of support tickets at active sky,and ive only had two replys asking for more info on the case which is fine and ive provided this but then keep getting the msg a day or two later from them saying if this is resolved the ticket will be closed? this is without solving the issue?
Now my issue is that i have upgraded too the Beta version of active sky p3dv5.2 and followed all the promps,tho when i fire up the sim then active sky,in the active sky weather engine promp it is indicating that it is waiting for the sim?now in the options panel in the sim i have active sky ticked,and has FSUIPC6 and all the other stuff it needs i have my p3d sim on my g drive,im sure a file or something has not been directed into the path of active sky,its a strange one,as i still use p3v4 with active sky and its fine,if anyone is able too help this would be fine,as it has been nearly 2 weeks waiting for support from active sky and have followed all the procedures too log a ticket there but for some reason my tickets are not getting too them ?thanks gents.
Default 737-800 too work with P3D v5.3 Altitude ajusting issues?
in Prepar3D
Posted
Gday gents i hope your all well im currently using the default vc 737-800 aircrafts and the 787s from the rikadoo freeware site the sim im using is p3dv5.3 version Im having trouble with the altitude dial it allows me too put altitude setting Via the dial upto 30,000feet only and wont let me go any higher and it wont let me reduce the altitude at all? the 737s is a total default set up like in FSX back in the days these addons work well when i was just using p3dv5.0 only no hot fixes or anything else i have posted this topic over at there Rikadoo forum Question and i think this might be a hard one for someone too answer or there might be tweak i can add into the aircraft CFG folder? or simply this addon needs too be updated by them too suit p3d5.3.2 anybody else having these issues
i still have p3dv4 and they work well any recommendations would be great thanks gents.
