Take Back Control Of YOUR Sim

The main purpose of PTA is to allow you to tweak your Prepar3D config & shaders resulting in the ultimate, aesthetically pleasing (eye-catching), virtual flight experience. Basically, it'll look INCREDIBLE.

Using PTA, you can apply tweaks in a fast and convenient way without manually editing files or any of that other confusing rubbish. As a famous Flight Simulation development company once said - it's "Complexity Simplified".

Completely User Friendly

Using the latest and greatest technologies, we've created a user experience that is unrivalled.

We've also implemented strict control of the core sim, so should you f*** it up (which let's face it, you most probably will), hit revert and it'll put you right back at the start.

We've even included tooltips for every single customizable setting, just in case you want to understand what you're doing.

Should you still manage to break it, we've implemented a detailed error logging system that will help us identify the problem(s) and fix them right away.

Finally, we've given you the option to choose from various "skins" for the tool. We even support HiDPI - so for those of you who are running 4k screens, you won't have to use a magnifying glass to actually see what you're doing.

Core Shader Tweaks

The tool comes with 30 different tweaks with fully customisable options for clouds, lighting, atmosphere & water adjustments. You can even tune your HDR & FXAA parameters.

For you die hard nerds (basically like us), we've given you the option to tweak shader parameters via specific expressions (PTA 2.0 or later required). Don't worry, it's all fully documented.

Post Processing Shaders (From Reshade)

Post-process effects? We've got you covered. Adapted from SweetFX, they can be used natively in Prepar3D without Reshade and have all been adapted for the Prepar3D rendering engine:

• Sepia
• Curves
• Levels
• LiftGammaGain
• Technicolor
• Vibrance
• LumaSharpen
• DPX Cineon
• Tonemap

Completely Customizable

In addition to the PTA built-in tweaks and post-processing, you can also create your own tweaks to either use alongside our in-house tweaks, or on their own. You can even share them with the community!

Each PTA preset may also include a separate adjustment of main P3D config file.
