Jack Sawyer Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 45 minutes ago, Stewart Hobson said: Btw, it's also possible to set up different sim profiles, say, one for daytime flying and another for nighttime flying; or GA flying or jetliner flying, enabling or disabling P3D features (LOD setting or texture resolution, for example), suitable for the type of flying you do. The possibilities are numerous, all depending on the type of flying you do. I tend to set my sliders as high as the sim tolerates fps-wise, since I do only GA flying. Hi Stewart, I used to use SCE in P3D 32 bit and loved it, it was extremely easy to use. However, I was going to use it in 4.4 and went to download it and I saw that it's causing problems, I forget what now so I was wondering if you or anyone else that uses 4.4 can give some advice? Maybe @Nick Cooper? Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted January 22, 2019 Share Posted January 22, 2019 Hello Jack, I continue to use SCE with P3D v4 and it causes no problems, it works precisely the same way as it does in FSX and other P3D versions. It does not however see scenery added with an xml file because it is designed to work only with the scenery.cfg file. I would imagine that someone trying to use say the Lorby utility to manage the scenery library and SCE at the same time might have problems.

I’ll get the latest version of SCE and set it up like I did before. Much appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is able to see scenery added with an xml file because such scenery is added by SimStarter using another menu selection which enables one to assign any such scenery to any profile of the user's choice. All FlightBeam and FSDreamteam airports are added in this way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm used to the simplicity of SCE. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
