Hi guys this is very hopefull topic for p3D v6 and i thank all you guys who have made good recommendations too get Orbx working in p3dv6 as ive been reading all of the stuff mention in these posts. My Orbx stuff is located within my P3d v5 folder as recommended by Orbx and not in a libary so too migrate everything from Orbx too c drive for exsample seems alot of work can i open my p3dv5 folder and safely copy and paste in too the same location in my p3dv6 folder which looks the same tho without the Orbx stuff? im just affraid too stuff up p3dv5 or it too lose or the Orbx folders? i know this has been explained tho im abit scared too try it lol. any easy suggestions for a non tech savey person would be great thanks.

Gday Rob love your work mate i have V6 also installed and have V5.3 installed and running great i would love too install my Orbx scenery and addons into V6 i have been following these V6 post and if its not too much trouble am i able too get these files,tweaks emailed too me branch_timmo@hotmail.com please so i can try and transfer stuff from V5.3 over too V6 as i think Orbx may take some time too release a V6 version in Orbx central thanks and appreciate people like you in our forums as im not tech savey and sometimes afraid too touch any files incase i stuff it up.

Couldnt agree more with you Greg im all for P3Dv5.3 and have been a member of this forum for 13 years and really have no interest in MFS.

Hi guys happy new year,ive been away from the forum for a while due too health reasons tho im slowly getting back into it again now a question,i have now updated too the new version of p3d 5.3 without the hot fix and all is well ecept how do i get Orbx central too recognize p3d5 in the drop down menu?like i have p3d4 and xplanes ect,ive installed P3d5.3 on my G harddrive not the C default hard drive,just need it too connect with cental so i can re add all the scenery and stuff hopefully by using sync option in central??any ideas are very much welcomed thankyou gents.

Gday nick thanks again for the link,i tried what it suggested and everything was already enabled permission wise,this microsoft sim is on its own seperate drive and i dont use this sim alot,tho mayble it might have been a windows update which cause this,tho i might uninstall it and then reinstall it too see what happens,both of the other sims lockheed martin sims pdv4 and pdv5.1 are running fine,but these are on seperate drives too.

thanks nick for the link and advice as always your a great help,i will see how this goes.

Gday gents i hope your all well,i went too fire up the sim and got this msg error code 0x800700E9 saying that the sim is off line and cant open,and the storage device is offline or might be missing??any ideas? it wants me too reinstall it?

Yet again your screenies are just out of this world Adam!!

Awesome set there John!

Fantasic shot!!

Just amazing Iain!

Lovely set again Gerold!

lovely set here Gerold!

A fantastic couple of shots there indeed

these are amazing!!

lovely set of shots there!

thanks for the update and indeed it works,tho i get a really foggy visibility which i think is unrealistic,your shots are fantastic,i have disabled volumetric cloud layers within the sim and the clouds look better,tho ive tried disabling this fog layer in rex and the sim and it doesnt disable,even flying at 41000 feet i get a silly looking haze and the same when on the ground,when i shut rex down the fog layer improves a little.

Awesome shots indeed,has rex weather updated too the latest P3d5.2 yet?

Thanks again for your help 7829 is the beta version for p3dv5.2,and thanks Wayne an active sky connection update was done and thanks Aussie123 yes i did this also in the option part of the sim,it prompt me on this when i fired up the sim after the install Now a question ive got this sim installed on my G drive and not the default location c if there anyone with the same sort of scenario it being installed on another drive can point me on the dirction of the correct install path?thanks.

Gday nick even when im in the simulator and have selected a airport of choice and a flightplan,it will still hang and then a yellow triangle will show up saying there is a connection issue cant find the simulator,tried the delete and update thing many times but i really appreciate your help

Thanks for your reply Aussie,yes the sim looks great i must agree there could be a bug in the connections,as it is in Beta i guess

Gday gents just a long shot here and i know this isnt a weather Forum and you can delete this topic as i would understand tho i guess many of you are active sky users?? and i have lodge a couple of support tickets at active sky,and ive only had two replys asking for more info on the case which is fine and ive provided this but then keep getting the msg a day or two later from them saying if this is resolved the ticket will be closed? this is without solving the issue? Now my issue is that i have upgraded too the Beta version of active sky p3dv5.2 and followed all the promps,tho when i fire up the sim then active sky,in the active sky weather engine promp it is indicating that it is waiting for the sim?now in the options panel in the sim i have active sky ticked,and has FSUIPC6 and all the other stuff it needs i have my p3d sim on my g drive,im sure a file or something has not been directed into the path of active sky,its a strange one,as i still use p3v4 with active sky and its fine,if anyone is able too help this would be fine,as it has been nearly 2 weeks waiting for support from active sky and have followed all the procedures too log a ticket there but for some reason my tickets are not getting too them ?thanks gents.

Just amazing!!

Amazing shot Iain
