Sniper31 Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Welcome back wombat! Sorry, I cannot answer your question as I have not purchased P3D v4 yet (I am relocating soon, so flight deck all packed up). But, that topic has been discussed A LOT here lately, so if you search around I am sure you will find the answer on this forum. Again, welcome back Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 Hi, I did exactly that. I have P3D 3.4 on drive G. Formatted a 500GB SSD and named it Z. Installed V4 to it. Then when I ran FTX Central you will see a box in the lower left if I remember correctly, click on it, let it do its thing and you will now have two selections for your Orbx stuff. You'll see P3D V3 and P3D V4, that blue bar? You'll now have two. Then you can start installing all your regions (that's all they've released so far) and it will pull the data from your other drive and not download it, it transfers it. It was all very smooth and easy, if I forgot something I'm sure someone will graciously chime in. Best regards and not to worry, if I can do it anyone can do it.
