Carenado working on new installers.

Hi, just got a confirmation fron Carenado support that they are indeed working on new installers for their products. They didn't mention which products but I guess all the P3Dv2 compatible ones is a fair assumption.

Greetings,

 

We're making several tests to make our products P3D v3 compatible, but we don't have a date yet.

 

Regards

 

Carenado Support"

At least they are working on it...

Good news. From what I understand it may not be necessary. But I'd love to have an official v3 installer for all of my Carenado aircraft. Even the old 185 please!

I've been able to get the aircraft to show up and fly pretty well even using their normal installers from FSX/v2.  So far, the only problem I've run into is that the Navigraph-enabled planes like the Phenom 100/300 and the Hawker 850XP aren't loading their FMS databases, so it's impossible to program flight plans or performance.

Yes good news,  i would like to get the Navajo or Titan both from reports are very good

Man is it taking long to get an installer, huh..?

They just updated the TBM850 with a P3D v3 installer.

How do we know when the installers are updated?

[BMagann 11]

I got a message from PCAviator that a new version was available for download and the installer was just part of the new version.

 

The TBM is still tough on frame rates in the new version lol.

How do we know when the installers are updated?

 

This. With the X-Plane installers, it was always word of mouth. Never any official information.

[Howellerman 104]

Interesting.

 

Thanks for the tip-off, Bill. Since I buy all my aircraft directly from Carenado there is zero notification that an "update" is in place.

 

In fact, the "update" flag on my download screen seems deliberately misleading: yes, the version is now 1.x, but when I attempt to install it (not using EMT), it is the same old installer. 

 

The TBM came up as V2.0. That appears to be the go-ahead for the triple installers.

 

Thanks again, Bill. Will have to look at the correlation between the X-Plane versions and my hanger to see what else may have changed to 2.0.

This is great news, the B1900D is one of my main stays but have held off installing into V3.1 as don't know if it will work ok.

Looks like the SR22 has a new installer as well.
