Oh cool I downloaded the client from the site uninstalled and reinstalled. I get the nice option to only display favourite planes It's not all that clear how to update really but hopefully it's done now. Thanks Joe

LOL I just max mine out and then back off the ones I wish to give on a little. I am still messing with mine a bit but I am sure I will end up coming back to this.

Is it just client I download or is it content and all the others too? Cheers for the help.

Hi, So I thought it would be a good idea to post settings in here that may help others in setting up P3D v4 - Obviously everybody's hardward and setups differ so please only use this as a guide, your experience may differ to mine. Feel free to post your setups here too and also add your machine specs too - as this will make it easier for people to compare specs and settings together. Well here are mine (so far) - If I update I will update this post... Machine Specs: CPU - Intel i7 4790k @ 4.4GHz GPU - Nvidia GTX1070 8GB HD's - 2 SSD's - one fo

Lovely shots mate

So in order to update - do I go and uninstall just the client part or all parts? Thanks

Obviously this depends heavily on the hardware etc. But at least it's things to try.

Great shots - maybe we should put a topic in the P3D forum for v4 settings and tips? I'd love to try other people's settings to see how they perform on my rig.

I love these shots and I really like the classic look of that second livery. I am just getting up to 200 hours on my Comanche and still my favourite plane.

Lol we shall see

Lmao I got my 1070 8GB Tuesday - I'm well happy with it. I got mine running smooth as a nut by running a bit of software that sets the refresh rate of the monitor to 30Hz then running vsync on in sim with unlimited fps. Only good if you are happy with 30 fps which I am. You need to stream so I can watch

When you say port over don't you just run the installer? Or do you use some other tool and do something special?

Something to look forward to this dynamic lighting. Not sure if I'm going to install. Maybe I will and do some circuits

Is the island worth an install? I have it but never installed it.

I just installed it nothing special and everything works as far as I can see. Only thing I noticed was the config app wouldn't save my settings as it couldn't find an xml or something. Actually performs really well. I am well and truly a p3d v4 convert it is now in a league of it's own. Worth every penny!

Hi, It's been a while since posting on here - but here are a couple from my recent flight... Thanks for viewing

The only issues I had was when I installed Vector it would put it at the top of my library - this was due to some of the default FSX regions/scenery entries being missing. I had removed them previously to save load times etc on my older machine. Turns out Vector was looking for 'Africa' FSX default entry (I think it was Africa) but reinserting this back in solved the problem. Also, I have PNW region on boxed version and could not upgrade as they removed the upgrade/support page where you used to be able to download the updates from. This did cause elevation issues in so

Oh right OK, not sure what the difference is but with Navigraph you can subscribe to FMS Data for 30 days that costs 7.80 Euros - you can then download the FMS Data Manager and you can choose the items you wish to update. Or I am not sure if this is still an option, but you used to be able to download all the updates individually and store locally, then it's just a case of running the installer and it does it all for you. I have kept all my single update installers as backup and when I do a reinstall I just run all the relevant ones again and all my products are at the same version.

Aerosoft? I thought you get it from Navigraph?

Nice shots - looks like a nice trip

Great shots - the last one made me chuckle a little, but that's the benefit of being in a tiny plane landing on a huge runway, you can dump it half way down if you like and it's much easier to go around and join circuit.

Super shots mate - love how the (I assume) clouds leave the shadows on the ground

Nice flight - great shots mate

Plus 1 on the above That's why I just bought one lot of updates and updated all my planning software and planes using the same version.

I like them all but that last one looks fantastic - great work!
