    Icon9 P3D/P4D screenshots redux...oops!

    Post your P3D v4 Screen shots here.

    I'll kick it off with the Abrams P1 Explorer over photo real Las Vegas. I haven't added any custom autogen for LV yet, but there are no real challenges in migrating existing assets if you know how to go about it.

    Note:
    The Abrams is a WIP and translated into V4 quite elegantly, looking and performing even better than V3. Averaged 60-70 FPS on the flight from KBIH to KLAS. On the ground more like 30 FPS in my high def KBIH scenery, but gained quickly when the view was not looking down the barrel of the high autogen saturation in that scenery package.

    Note the heavy volumetric haze in the custom weather setup. This should be a giant killer, but no real problem. The biggest FPS killer will be Dynamic Reflections so use it at a level that you find amiable with your system.

    As of this flight, ChasePlane has updated itself with an experimental P3D v4 build now functional. Those guys are on the ball.

    Very impressed with 4. I was running 2.5 for the last few years and was hoping LM would come out with a 64bit ver.

    Now I can honestly say that I am happy to have a new sim.

    It runs really nice.

    Is that the IRIS TacPack A-10 ?
    Did you get the load manager to work in P3Dv4 ? I thought the 32 bits DLLs wouldn't work ?
    EDIT: simple, yet superb shot !

    Thx you.

    I have the load manager working but Im not using Tacpack. I was able to use the ac and the load manager without error.

    Thanks for the explanation.

    Just a couple of shots of Piglets A29B which Im using in Prepar3d4. Still a great plane to fly in the sim.
    This is taking over southern Florida in pending storms.
    So far added all the Orbx scenery I have along with Rex Essential with overdrive. No issues. Also was able to fly Iris Mudhen F15E with metal2metal installed. Could not get the Milviz F15E to work.
    I'm pretty happy so far with 4.0. The migration so far has really been easier than I imagine it would be.
    This sim runs very well right out of the box.

    In another thread i was raven about the fact that with our new 64bit playground the extremely annoying popping in and out of ground textures finally belongs to the past ( aka FSX/P3Dv3... ) Crispy sharp ground textures everywhere you look !

    But that was while flying the Bonanza with 135 knots at say 1500 feet. I really didn't expect this would be exactly the same flying a jetfighter at 500 knots at treetop height ! Holy Moly !!!





    Exactly the same feeling as Aerofly FSI could provide when flying thru the Swiss mountains in the default F-18. Except we now have our beloved FS aircraft at our disposal, autogen everywhere and with the whole world as playground ! I say again Holy Moly !!!

    Following the Seine low and fast. Used to be no fun at all, now it certainly is !





    Am i happy to have left FSX and P3Dv3 behind and go all the way with P3Dv4/64 bit ??..... Happy !!??? Heck, i am bolted over with ecstasy !! :-))

    Thanks for posting screenshots of the included F-16. I thought mine was broken when I saw the model (wings) the first time.

    Approach and landing very difficult because the speedbrakes don't work...


    Correction : they do work but you have to hold down the key.

    Bare Bone and Basic: settings were set to low, good enough for me right now until I build a machine that can go to the high end.

    Big cities in Europe :

    Athene



    Istanbul



    Moscow



    London



    If you ask me and IMHO of course, big cities have never ever looked this good and 'performend' this well in any flightsimulator ever !!

    Not going to spoil the party by installing Drzewiecki Design New York for the time being ( i believe the're working on P3Dv4 compatible version anyway... ). With P3Dv4 slide shows seem to be a thing of the past but with DDNYC there's a good chance to invite them back in. We'll have to find out sooner or later...
