World settings not saving (p3dv5.3)

[Dick hobbs]

Hello and congratulations on a great product. 

As the title say's, every time start a new session of p3d I have to reset my saved profile settings in sim. Specifically cloud draw distance.

After settling on a preset that matches my preferences and a couple of tweaks, I name a profile in p3d and save it followed by saving the preset in RdShade. However, when starting a new flight in p3d my profile settings shows "custom" and find that my cloud draw has been reset to max where I like 100miles.

Am I missing something?

Regars, D.H.

Hi,

So the issue is that the cloud draw distances is changed whenn you start P3D after using RDShade? Because RDShade sets it's own value in the config file it reads 'custom' because it was custom set by you using RDShade, this can still be 100 if you have set 100 in RDShade however P3D doesn't show that.

Hope that explains.
Kind regards

Just to be clear, are you saying that my preset is actually loading into p3d with a cloud draw distance of 100 regardless that my world slider in p3d is showing maxed out?

Yes that’s correct! Unfortunately that’s how P3D shows it when it’s set via a separate application, same happens when the cloud draw distance is set with active sky.

 

Kind regards

Thanks for clearing that up, nice to know. So I guess my p3d saved profile will  serve more as a record of my sim settings.

Best regards, D.H.
