Hope to see you back posting again soon. Thanks Martyn, I probably should move to P3D, but do I wait for the new version? Also, I have 100 or so payware aircraft for FSX. Can I afford to walk away from a £2,000+ spend? As you say, just frustrating at the moment. Cheers Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers Paul There lies the problem Paul, like you I have masses of pay ware planes and airports, which is why I am still stuck on P3DV2.4. I have now noticed that a lot of new airports(non ORBX of course) and planes are now P3DV3 only or V2.5 and upwards. I know where I will be staying for the time being and it is great to see that ORBX are still thinking of the older versions of P3D which I hope and pray they will do for as long as possible.

andy1252 Posted April 13, 2017 Share Posted April 13, 2017 Whoo-hoo! that looks like fun Martyn! Great scenario and pix. And ain't these sales just too tempting? I swore I wasn't gonna but . . . and now I've got no time to fly as what little time I seem to have at the moment is now tied up with installing and logging all the new stuff. 10 hours ago, paulb said: Also, I have 100 or so payware aircraft for FSX. Can I afford to walk away from a £2,000+ spend? Sorry to hear your troubles, Paul. Maybe it'll turn out to be an easier and quicker fix than you think - sometimes happens. As for the FSX aircraft, having now got the FSDT Whirlwind running ok in P3D there's only one FSX/FS9 aircraft (a freeware Concordski) that I've not been able to load up into P3D successfully - either via the migration tool or just installing to a dummy directory and then copying everything by hand. Just my two-penn'orth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I, and I suppose many others too, am also feeling a bit stuck here. But honestly we have got heaps of things to don in the existing sim (FSX for me). The only thing is I stop funding many add-on producers currently because of the uncertainties - except orbx, I trust they will make upgrading as fair as in the proven past.

Just my two-penn'orth. Thanks Andy, I have brought very little non ORBX stuff lately, in fact just the AH Typhoon but that Helldiver does appeal even though it is an ugly brute of a thing! Freeware is the go at the moment and I am managing to install about 90% of it into P3DV2.4 So frustrating for Paul to have it go belly up. Just hope it is nothing that a re install wont fix, so easy for all the ORBX sceneries now with Centralv3. 9 hours ago, Bermuda425 said: A1 series of departure captures!

The only thing is I stop funding many add-on producers currently because of the uncertainties - except orbx, I trust they will make upgrading as fair as in the proven past. I have just installed a few FSX airports into P3DV2.4 and it looks as this is as far as I can go at present as I just have too much to leave behind. I have a lot of airports in SE Asia, China, Japan, South Pacific, Caribbean and South America. I do fly V3.4 in NZ but that is about it at the moment and I am enjoying all this freeware too much in v2.4! Well thanks for the interesting conversations here. It seems I am not alone with this moving on to new sims lark but it is very frustrating when you like the look of something only to see it is not compatible and too expensive to take the risk.
