Compatibility Prepar3D V4 addons compatibility list

[jabloomf1230 2,445]

If you run any of the FSDT installers it will explicitly  tell you to uninstall any existing version  of SODE. If one is not present  than the installer  will continue  normally.

Just an FYI, I was getting the same error message from FSDT regarding an old version of SODE even though I couldn't locate it in the Control Panel and found the "offending" SODE install located in the PacSim/Salt Lake City Int folder.  I used the SODE install from that folder to remove it and then the GSX and FSDT airports would install without a problem. 

This begs several questions: do I go back and reinstall 1.4.2 SODE to reenable jetways in KSLC? The FSDT Forum is not accessible, I presume because of volume. Secondly, has anyone seen anything from PacSim regarding KSLC compatibility with P3DV4?

All pacsim scenery will be made V4 compatible.  On their facebook page the said they are going through updating the installers and will have an update later.

Any word on MyTraffic Pro 6?

Good morning,

I installed it this morning with no issue aside from having to manually edit the Simobjects.cfg file with notepad++.  Instructions below:

From WITHIN the sim, add a scenery library for MyTraffic Professional 6.  Add the location that you installed it to ie: C:\MyTraffic Professional\MyTraffic  <--DO NOT add the aircraft folder.

Move the new entry down the line until it is just about the Global Generic & Vehicle Libraries.

Before you exit you sim, make sure you have some traffic turned on!

Next, download notepad++ - new file format for the .CFG files that, if not manipulated correctly, could have you reinstalling your sim!!

Browse to C:\Program Data\ Lockheed Martin\P3Dv4 (or whatever  you named it).

Open the Simobjects.cfg

If you have not done anything to this file, your next line will be 10.  Add the following (but replace 10 with the next number in sequence if you have something already added in there):

[Entry.10] 
Title=MyTraffic Vehicles 
Path=C:\MyTraffic Professional\MyTraffic\Aircraft
Required=False
Active=True

I forgot to add that you will also need to navigate to <P3D SIM FOLDER>\Scenery\World\Scenery and find a file called trafficAircraft.BGL and change it to .OFF or .OLD so that you dont see any default AI aircraft.  Should look like this trafficAircraft.BGL.OFF

Simple as that!!!!

Enjoy!!!

Do you have a direct link?
I'm just seeing the old 2.26.1.

Thanks,
gb.

From the home page select "Support" and "Latest Software" and it should have 2.28.0.   Downloaded and V4 now recognizes my hardware, depending on the aircraft.

ok - since this has become a discussion thread as opposed to an information one, I'm unpinning it.

Excuse me for asking this, but how does one install FTX sceneries (FTX Global, FTX EU LC etc...) when FTX Central doesn't recognize Prepar3D V4, yet...?

We are waiting for the new FTX Central, they are fixing last minute error.

Have you found that SODE 1.5.0 doesn't work with jetways for that scenery ? I find it odd, since the changes from 1.4.2 to 1.5.0 were mainly compatibility with 64 bit (but it will work in 32 bit too), and some internal changes to the GSX API, which is only used by GSX, so other sceneries shouldn't be affected.

PACSIM does not have a forum, so I am wondering if anyone has any news on Salt Lake City?  Their page says "All products will be in v4" but PACSIM does not have an account system, so there is no way to log in and grab an updated installer.  I am wondering how that will even be distributed considering there is no account system at all.

Hi Faelandia!

I installed KSLC in P3Dv4 and it looks great no errors.  I have also installed the following and absolutely no issues or errors:

Cielosim-KJAX and KPAO

LatinVFR-KRDU, KSNA, KSAN, TJSJ, KRSW and KEYW

DD-Washington X, New York X and Miami X

KPHL Sunykist-Freeware

T2G-KMCO and KSEA

All of the FlyTampa that are updated

So far so good,  tried AS US Cities LA major issues had to uninstall!  Should quit when I'm ahead!  

Still have the black buildings that correct themselves when changing views but great fps in DD;s Washington X, New York X and Miami X (45 to 50 FPS) which used to cause my FPS to drop into the low 20s.

They've just updated TFDi 717 to 1.0.8.0 for v3, so this means, the v4 might come out soon!
