  1. P3D v4.2 loses numkey views when starting a session. They work fine for a few seconds until Ultimate Traffic Live initiates and populates the sim with AI traffic. Maybe this helps pinpoint the compatability issue.
  2. Install simconnect (FSX SP2/ACC) found in your P3D/redist folder.
  3. Is autorudder enabled in the sim?
  4. The Trident seems to function OK albeit the effects will require tweaking. As you state it doesn't show up I suggest you pay close attention to where you copy the files to, the directory structure changed slightly from FS9-FSX/P3D.
  5. Fearing we will never see a better model since the real model is nearing EOL and it is doubtful another software creator will have the resources of PMDG, together with their position not to update legacy products. Does anyone know how to get it functioning correctly in P3D? i.e. ILS offset tracking problem and load manager not showing send button. I expect flack over this question re EULA but cut me some slack, I only want to enjoy it in the enhanced environment that P3D brings. It seems such a shame the last 3 holer is destined to be a forgotten relic in FSX.
  6. I'd like: DC-10-30(B-Cal)/MD-10(FedEx) L1011(BA) Trident(BA) 727(Libyan Arab Airlines) Tu-154m(Aeroflot) I've a thing for 2-holers!
  7. Try one of the early 707s, especially the type operated by the USAF. Now they were LOUD, like enough to split concrete... fingers in ears job!
  8. @Kuragiman The load utility hasn't worked since P3D v2.3.
  9. More depressing is that there are no airworthy Tridents around :-(
  10. I see CLS are working on a new DC-10 model, it looks to be quite good, I hope it performs as it should. The reason I am posting is that due to there not being a quality DC-10 for FSX/P3D I have become used to the glass cockpit of the MD-11 over the last few years. It's a fine plane but my heart belongs with the DC-10, preferring the soulful wail of the CF6-50s to the mournful howl of the 11's CF6-80s. So wouldn't it be fantastic if CLS did an MD-10 FedEx model. All the best bits from both types, the chubby &@($* dragging stance of a heavy 10 and her rip roaring engines combined with the ease of one man desktop piloting in the glass cockpit. Some of you simmers with a fondness for 3 holer types may recall the attempt to release a model by a company called XSimulate a few years ago, I hope CLS deliver the goods and it doesn't end up a failed project. I hope you all had a merry Christmas, happy landings in the new year.
  11. Perhaps deleting the SHADERS cache folder and letting it rebuild would help.
  12. If you turn on visible thermals in FSX you should see spirals/circling birds where you are having problems, I've no idea how they chose the default locations. Turning off thermals in FSX may affect externally injected weather, that is why I recommend deleting the file. Re PMDG 777 Autoland behaviour, I can't comment on the real thing but one can assume that as a desktop simulation not all the systems are modelled 100% and until discrepancies outside the basic operation are noted and fixed there will always be the odd quirks.
  13. The OP said it had nothing to do with ASN, not that it wasn't weather related. I am talking about the default thermals the sim has with any weather except clear skies and/or thermal effect toggled off. All I suggested was give it a go as a step in eliminating a possible cause of the problem. I have long deleted the file and never look back, letting AS2012 take care of the weather without the sim's own predefined thermals, usually upsetting things on short finals.
  14. Try deleting the ThermalDescriptions.xml file from the root of your sim directory and report back, backup first.
