Anyone know if PMDG will offer a free upgrade from 737ngx(P3Dv2.x) to P3Dv3 ?

[User4355 2]

Hi,

 

Anyone know if PMDG will offer a free upgrade from 737ngx(P3Dv2.x) to P3Dv3 ?

 

They clearly states:

This is compatible only with Lockheed Martin's Prepar3D. (v2.2.x - v2.5.x)

 

 

Couple of more question:

 

1. How do you install 737ngx(P3Dv2.x)  into P3Dv3 ?

2. Are their absulut NO issues running pmdg 737ngx(p3dv2x) in P3Dv3 ?

3. Do you thing pmdg willl advise or help if we ran into issue with 737(p3dv2.x) running in P3Dv3 ?

 

Thanks inadvanced

You should read this:

 

http://www.avsim.com/topic/475671-01oct15-prepar3d-v2v3-compatible-installers-available/

 

and

There are installers for v3 but you will have to delete the NGX from v2.5, you cannot have duel installers.  Of course they will help if you have issues, it is PMDG afterall.

Go to PMDG website , log in -/ go to your account / previous order / download the base package and  737 6700 expansion from the download link.

You will get PMDG 737 8900 NGX base package P3D v2 or v3.exe and 737 6700 as well

 

Part of the readme :

Hi,

 

I did, this was regarding 737 (other was for 777).

 

Anyhow, I think it is a fully valid question since they Explicit State "This is compatible only with Lockheed Martin's Prepar3D. (v2.2.x - v2.5.x)"

on their website.

 

If they already have made an installer ready for P3Dv3 for existing customers (owns the x7x for P3Dv2.5x) they should/could

spend some minutes to update their website. So this was know for new customer as well.
