Accu-Feel P3DV4, Aircraft Behaviour completely strange

Post by fltsimguy »

My install of the new version when well, no issues.

I have the addon screen and ability to set parameters as expected.

But as soon as I turn on the over all global or individual plane active, my plane starts rocking, jumping bean, spinning, flipping like a break dancing plane.

Same occurs in the air or on the tarmac without moving.

At this point I don't know what is happening, almost like its some sort of conflict with something else. I use SpadNext for my controls.

Need some advice on what might be happening and what I need to do to get her working.

Hello Bryan,

Do you have other P3D add-ons besides SPAD.neXt installed? I'm not 100% sure if any of our testers use this piece of software, but it seems unlikely it would cause a conflict like this. However, if you could launch the sim with SPAD.neXt disabled, that would be a good way to check.

Otherwise, if you can give us as much info as possible about which version of P3D you use and any other software which may be involved such as utilities and add-on aircraft, we'll stand a better chance of tracking the culprit down.

Also, do you have any anti-virus software running during installation/operation, and if so, from which provider(s).

Thanks,
Nick

It would also help if you can let us know which aircraft you are experiencing this with.

Thanks,

P3Dv4
4.0.28.21686


I started up using the default Mooney Acclaim with G1000.
I then tried the RealAir Lancair.

I have three items in addons...
Accu-Feel
Span.neXt
FSUIPC

A bunch of payware and freeware planes.
I will do a run attempt without the Span.neXt running.

- Reinstall made no difference.
- shutting off Span.next made no difference

Thanks for the additional info Bryan.

Any particular reason you're using such an old version of Prepar3D v4? The current version is 4.3 and I'd strongly recommend that you update P3D to at least 4.1 status. This is because corrections were made to angular units in the sim between v4.0 and v4.1 which could potentially explain some of the issues you're seeing.

You could also try disabling FSUIPC. However, I tested with FSUIPC5 installed with no problems whatsoever.

Thanks,
Nick

Jumpin gees. I just realized that this is not right. I updated the client some time back to 4.2, why the heck this says otherwise I don't know. I stayed away from 4.3 because I heard some folks had problems with it.

I will start with updating the client right now. Thanks for pointing this out. I feel a bit foolish here.

OK pulling down version Prepar3D_v4_Academic_4.3.29.25520.zip as we speak, this will take a half hour or so before I get it installed and tested.

Bryan,

There some advice here on how to attach a screenshot to your post. But, yeah, from your most recent comment it sounds like there's something a little bit screwy with your Prepar3D installation.

There's a useful thread here which talks about the recommended way to update P3D.

Good luck and please let us know how you get on. :)

Problem solved.
Updating the client to the most recent version has solved this issue.

Much thanks for waking me up to this outdated version.

You're welcome Bryan - happy to hear you're back in action. The updated P3D client should also help prevent further add-on compatibility issues.

On of the developers has confirmed that Prepar3D must be updated to at least v4.1 for Accu-Feel to function correctly. This is due to the angular unit bug fix by Lockheed Martin mentioned above.

Thanks,
Nick

I'm happy to see that Accu-Feel is in Simmarket already.

Just quick note - I think it's necessary to strictly point out that it's adapted to P3D v4.1+

Currently there is just this note, which can be misleading:

REQUIRES LICENSED COPY OF Lockheed Martin Prepar3d simulation platform v4+
