Thank you for the heads up.

Well I guess it's gonna be a while before they get to the older ones that I own, like the 208s and KingAirs. Glad they are moving on this.

Do you know which ones they are?  The website doesn't appear to be much help.

Thanks.

From their face book page.

I've just downloaded the A2A 182 and 250, they installed into the D:\Users\??????\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons folder. Does the Carenado installers do the same.

Oh, the PC-12.  That's good news...I just wonder if all those mods some folks have brilliantly created will work too.

Flashing red beacon doesn't seem to be working with the Phenom.

No, they don't. They have also not updated the Navigraph versions either. All they did was recompile the .dlls into x64 and point their installer to P3Dv4.

Thanks ken , just downloaded and ran the installer, cancelled when I got to the path, will wait.

I feared that would be the case

Did you download several days ago and are just now installing? I brought this to their attention in the forums and they said they had changed the installer to let you choose.

I tried about an hour ago, cancelled when i saw the path direct into P3d,  did see a browse option tion but didn't try it , i will try that tomorrow to see if puts the correct entries in.

Looks like you can redirect their installer to the Add-on folder, but you need to have a Carenado folder already created. You will also have to hand create the add-on.xml file.

Your signature banner is to a dead link too.    Can you fix it?
