Re: P3D v5.3.15.28131 crash with GSX

Same issue here. Also did a complete clean install of P3D and all add-ons.

CTD and then P3D does not restart ever

Hello, Quick question. Sometimes after a CTD for many different reasons,in both V5.3 and V5.3HF1, after the sim never restarts, unless I use "delete generated files". Multiple reboots, clearing shader cache, etc. does not work. Is there another way to have the sim restart without deleting ...

Re: DXGI Hung only upon approach

I am posting this here as well to help others that may have this issue. AMD GPU is the 6900XT. 1.) UIHardwareAcceleration set to false in P3D.cfg file.(Probable cause due to AMD overlay or whatever else this does with the AMD driver software suite) 2.) Disabled FSUIPC Autosave (Probably not the caus...

Re: DXGI Hung only upon approach

I am wondering if LM is working on this issue with AMD cards? I have read many threads and tried all of the solutions to no avail.

Re: V5 'dedicated graphics memory has run out' 8GB VRAM

I have the same issue that just started happening. Any way of resolving this? 8GB of VRAM. Happens at default airports and payware. My settings are medium (sliders somewhere in the middle).

Should we update to Windows Build 2004?

Re: Does P3DV5 require a restart for smoothness

Almost all of the default P3D aircraft and then tried a couple of payware. No saved flights. This was multiple clean installs of P3D. Not the aircraft which is the issue here. I selected "End Scenario" and switch to another default P3D aircraft from a default P3D aircraft. The most import...

Re: Does P3DV5 require a restart for smoothness

It is exactly what I mean.

1.) I uninstalled P3D and did a fresh install. Rebooted.
2.) Then did three flights WITHOUT rebooting. Performance degraded.
3.) Only when I rebooted it performance came back.
4.) Yes, always test with default aircraft first.

Re: Does P3DV5 require a restart for smoothness

Hmmm. I just reinstalled P3DV5 with no scenery add ons. Installed two aircraft add ons and three flights each. Stutters introduced in flight 2 and flight 3 is worse. Rebooted PC and fine! Interesting indeed.

Re: Does P3DV5 require a restart for smoothness

Thanks for responding. I thought it was only me experiencing this. Not sure if anyone has found a solution without restarting the PC. I do not mind restarting P3D for a fresh start.

Re: Does P3DV5 require a restart for smoothness

Interesting just did three flights testing it. As every flight went along the performance deteriorated. Then restarted and did the first flight and smooth. Is there something I can delete? Kinda of like what we do when we update the NVIDIA drivers and delete the shader cache.

Does P3DV5 require a restart for smoothness

I have done some extensive testing of the new sim. I have noticed on my machine a restart is required to eliminate stutters. The first several flights run smooth with some micro stutters which seems normal. However, when I restart the sim at a different airport, I have stutters introduced. Only when...

The instructions are not clear. Do we just uninstall the original Client or do we do a full uninstall and reinstall.

I hope its not the latter.

Randy
What they are recommending is uninstalling the Client, Content, and Scenery packages and reinstalling those three packages.

Re: Updated to Hotfix. P3D does not start

Interesting. I did uninstall the hotfix and reinstall the 4.5 initial release client and it works now. I then uninstalled 4.5 original for the hot fix and same issue. Interesting indeed! Happy to try any other suggestions. Hopefully it is ok to have the latest Scenery and Content installed with the ...
