Re: Models dump textures too soon

Wow thanks, the MaxRegionsPurgePerFrame sounds like the culprit! It was set to 15, so changed to 1 and all my textures are sticking around pretty much for good! I've got 16 GB of RAM, so no issues there with P3D 4.2. Tried your other tweaks too, but have to wait until I get back to my 2k screen to s...

Re: Las Vegas Preview in Prepar3DV4

With so many consumers waiting on this one, it would be considerate of FT to post an update as to the status of this well anticipated product.Stephen :evil: Would like to know this also, I have to admit I was hoping FlyTampa would of posted an update around the time of the FSExpo as most of the oth...

Re: IS FS9 DONE HERE??

AI is one of the things I miss about FS2004. I had 342 hand-installed and up-to-date airlines, and now I have 1. It's so hard to install AI into P3D because it's designed for FSX or FS9 and has to be manually migrated. That and AFCADs. There's no good AFD program for P3D to edit airports to suit AI....

Re: IS FS9 DONE HERE??

I believe so. I thought I'd be the last person on the planet using FS9, as I had so much money and priceless amounts of my time invested in it. However I have finally been forced to move to P3Dv4. I suggest you try and break away from FS9 soon. Use it for as long as you want in it's current state, b...

Re: Lost downloaded airport

12 days ago, I needed to obtain some proof of purchase of my old FT orders, so I just e-mailed support@flytampa.com, and within 2 hours I had a reply. They even re-activated the downloads and sent me another e-mail with the BMT micro links in it. Perhaps you should try e-mailing the correct informat...

Re: Lost downloaded airport

What website did you purchase it from?
If SimMarket, you can login and download any time.

If from FlyTampa, go to your e-mails and re-download:

Re: Wrong start position

When you select EHAM from the Go To Airport menu, do you select the start location from the drop-down box? You should choose a gate, or a runway position.
Often, the 'Default' start location could be wrong, so choose a specific entry.

Re: Copenhagen Screenshots

That looks exactly like REX.
Best to use dynamic settings that adjust according to local weather conditions.
There's an option in REX.
Or just try one of the themes which looks similar to this.

Re: Huge performance drop and stutters after departure

So if you get the same stutter with default EKCH with FlyTampa EKCH disabled, then your problem is not with FlyTampa's product. Try disabling Europe LC and try again.

Models dump textures too soon

Hi team, A general question which applies to any highly detailed scenery in P3Dv4. After takeoff, I look back at the airport and ALL the 3D models (buildings, trees, static, etc) are black. It takes upo to 5 seconds for all the textures to load back. I've the got sceneries installed on the same SSD ...

Re: Qantas and Virgin domestic gates

Grant, I just checked the default AFCAD file, and neither the QF or VA domestic gates are sized to suit an A330. There's 2 gates at the JQ pier which are able to fit larger aircraft. You need to find an aircraft editor program like AIFPv3 and check the aircraft's parking radius fits inside the parki...

Re: No Nigs showing up in V 1.2

Apparently, the NIGS were fixed in an update to the configurator libraries.
Suggest he downloads all files, updates and patches and installs YSSY again.

Re: Sydney - Low FPS

Give us a few screenshots of your Graphics Settings, and a run-down on what hardware you are using in your PC. Also, a list of other addons currently active in the Sydney area, i.e. FTX Global, ORBX AU, Vector LC, REX Clouds, ActiveSky Cloud Art. Do you have a traffic addon like MyTraffic? Or do you...
