Larry Hickerson Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Just saw the last of the Triple installers for NA showing up. Though they were not V3 ready, I am greatly appreciative for NOT having to pay an upgrade and to have them on a hard drive. And, for this I am very happy and I know most of your followers are also. It is a big, big world and glad to see the LC packages coming to fruition. As an old fan of GEX and FEX, I have put off buying their upgrades for the anticipation of a pure Orbx world of flying. With all the eye candy in Europe, Oceania, and NA, I have enough to keep me busy. Keeping a copy of both FSX and P3Dv3 on separate drives allow me to be fully engaged in the flightsimming world. Thank you again; just one more of your scenery fans! Kind Regards, Larry Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Hickerson Posted October 17, 2015 Author Share Posted October 17, 2015 Well, I think it is about the end of the triple installers. LOL Might be one or two hiding about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ripcord Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Well, no we still got 6 of them left to go in NA, by my count anyway. But this finished us SAK, we now have all the Southern Alaska airports working in P3Dv2 with triple installers.Still got Vlad's Airdrie and 5 more in PNW.Gotta say though, getting 4 at once is like having my birthday all over again, only with better gifts this time!0S9 and KBVS is huge, being so close to W28 and 2WA1 and KORS, and a couple of other payware fields in the area. 74S Anacortes will round this area out, one of last holdouts. But that is just one little gap now, where it was three before.Also glad to have Longview Ranch again. Always liked that one and I'd been missing it here lately. So thanks again guys -- easy to happy with what we got this Saturday morning, and not thinking too much about what we are wanting to get. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Venema Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 The following have been ported and are waiting on testing: 74S Anacortes 77S Creswell W16 Monroe When those are done I think we're getting pretty close to finished. Then it starts again for the V3 installers once the regions are done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TymK Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Thanks John, excellent news. I really miss Creswell... Regarding V3, I presume ObjectFlow is the main hold-up here (at least for the low-altitude airports). Do you have any rough estimate as to when the first V3 airports may start appearing?

John Venema Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 Ok just checked we still need to port the following, which are being done by Turbulent Designs: CEF4 Aidrie Airpark KBZN Bozeman KSFF Felts Field YBAS Alice Springs YSCB Canberra YSTW Tamworth Then we'll be done Thanks John, excellent news. I really miss Creswell... Regarding V3, I presume ObjectFlow is the main hold-up here (at least for the low-altitude airports). Do you have any rough estimate as to when the first V3 airports may start appearing? Tym Yes ObjectFlow is the hold-up and because it's written by a third-party contractor we're not having much luck getting any response from him despite our best efforts, so we are actively investigating alternatives because we can't have this occur each time LM does a point release.

LOL What else is new...! I remember reading about that guy not responding a few times before so I think going for an alternative would be appreciated by everyone here.

TymK Posted October 17, 2015 Share Posted October 17, 2015 I hope you manage to get him to cooperate, or at least squeeze the source code out of him so that you can use an alternative developer. Moving to a different solution will inevitably delay things and increase the workload on the developers doing the conversions... Tym Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Venema Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Ok problems with V3 are resolved, new DLL not too far away so that's good news. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmb Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 That's really good news, thanks for your continued support for Prepar3d. I have to say, while Prepar3d3 might look much like Prepar3d2 at first sight, I find the essentially improved performance plus stability a major step forward. Kind regards, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TymK Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 Ok problems with V3 are resolved, new DLL not too far away so that's good news. That's actually frigging excellent news, John... As Michael said, some of the "under-the-hood" improvements are quite significant, so it's good to be able to move forward. Thanks! Tym Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Larry Hickerson Posted October 18, 2015 Author Share Posted October 18, 2015 My WORLD is a little better this a.m.. Thanks John for updating and the rest of us flightsimmers who takes this hobby serious. I remember starting out with AU when there was just two regions. Wow! What a growth. Fly low and slow, Brothers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Patrick Cox Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 I notice that YBBN is not on this list. Any reason why? Also YBTH appears to be missing from the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Harris Posted November 3, 2015 Share Posted November 3, 2015 Also YBTH appears to be missing from the list. YBTH is already a triple installer (FSX/P3D1.4/P3D2.x). http://www.orbxsystems.com/forum/topic/98419-ftx-ybth-bathurst-triple-installer-released/?hl=ybth Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My apologies. Apparently I misread John's post. I was thinking of the new installers that accommodate P3D V3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Venema Posted November 4, 2015 Share Posted November 4, 2015 YMML was one of the first airports with a triple installer. Turbulent are porting YBBN. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
