November 16, 201312 yr Hello all! I just saw the news on Avsim that P3D v2 will be out THIS MONTH! () With DX11 engine in place what are we looking at for compatibility of major addons? Im talking about the PMDGs, Flytampas, Aerosofts (scenery and airbus x), GEX's, REX's, ORBX etc.... Will we be seeing updates and patches or should we see backwards compatibility with P3D v2? Also I like flying with FSinn online and I was also wondering about that. Im excited for this! will buy right away! George Kyriazis | www.georgekonline.com
November 16, 201312 yr I am looking forward to the release myself. It looks like a lot of the big Flight Sim Bubbas are already working with LM to incorporate a smooth transition but I am sure there will be some add-ons that will take awhile to get on P3D. John
November 16, 201312 yr Author Im wondering about the flytampa scenerys the most because they already even have DX10 issues......i wonder now in DX 11 whats going to happen! Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk George Kyriazis | www.georgekonline.com
November 16, 201312 yr And what about peripherals (radio stacks, etc) and FSUIPC? Frank Olaf Sem-Jacobsen
November 16, 201312 yr It appears like everybody par PMDG are into Prepar3d V2 which is a shame and as for FSUIPC and peripherals if they were supported in 1.4 I suppose they'll be made to work in V2 Ryan Taylor
November 16, 201312 yr If pmdg can't port Boeing because of licence agreement then they should work on something different that won't conflict with current licence arrangements otherwise future sales are going to suffer (If P3D really is as good as I am reading about)
November 16, 201312 yr Anyone know where FSLabs stand on P3D. Be nice to know there would be a highly complex a320 someday for this platform Stephen Asus Z170 Deluxe, 32 GB DDR4 Dominator Platinum, i7 6700k mild overclock, GTX Titan ( Pascal ) Win10
November 16, 201312 yr In time I am sure most stuff will work. P3D 1 had a rough start, but after a while all my peripherals have been supported (TrackIR, Saitek cockpit modules etc.). Simmerhead - Making the virtual skies unsafe since 1987!
November 16, 201312 yr For me all saitek gear works without a problem in P3Dv2 , that includes the Radio panel, so as FSUIPC. scenery that had issues with DX10 (e.g. Dubai) , do not have those issues in P3Dv2 - working fine. also old FS9 Scenery (airports mainly I tested), work fine in P3Dv2. The file structure in P3Dv2 is almost identical to the file structure that we got used to in FSX, which will make it easy to port over scenery from FSX to P3Dvs. some Airports scenery I noticed had issues displaying the runway lights, but I saw only one that had that issue. it could be a very simple fix I believe.

November 16, 201312 yr Author Something tells me a lot of the major things will work......and from now on any future major release will be friendly with v2 because so many people are ready for the upgrade switch! Sent from my SGH-I747M using Tapatalk George Kyriazis | www.georgekonline.com
November 17, 201312 yr Commercial Member We are basically all ready, this is GSX + JFK running under P3D V2: http://www.fsdreamteam.com/forum/index.php/topic,9438.0.html Umberto Colapicchioni http://www.fsdreamteam.com FSDT on Facebook
November 17, 201312 yr Some of the developer comments I've been reading since the lifting of the NDA are certainly eye-opening. Look at the comments at Umberto's link, for example, and you can see that the question might soon be not "Will my old FSX add-ons work?" as it will be "When will developers start taking full advantage of some of the new features?", or perhaps even more, "When will they drop support for FSX on new products?". Interesting times, for sure. Scott
November 17, 201312 yr And what about peripherals (radio stacks, etc) and FSUIPC? Peter updated FSUIPC for v2.0 a while ago. He was a beta tester.
