Getting UGCX To Work On P3Dv3

[jpsrose 0]

Hello, I've made a blunder. A fairly big one.

I saw a few videos about UGCX and set off to purchase it without reading the fine print once I realised it was 50% off at the moment. I thought I was getting good value for money until I realised, after downloaded and (sort of) installing UGCX that it won't run on a version that is older than V4. I read FSX and P3D, and to be honest I've not really used the flight sim in so long that I forgot what version I was using. I tried installing the P3Dv4 version and the FSX version to no avail, it simply won't load the assets or the software on the Addon bar. 

If I remember rightly I resented the idea of upgrading to P3Dv4 because I couldn't use FsPassenger, which I've used for years. I don't suppose I could pick someone's brains to find out how I could get this to work otherwise? Failing that, I don't suppose ignorance warrants as a good excuse for a refund, does it? I could in theory prove its never been used because the log file is blank.

It won't work in P3D V3. It would require massive surgery, which isn't going to happen.

Why not just bite the bullet and upgrade cleanly to P3D V4?

Because I would still prefer to use FSPassengers, which has no v4 update, plus I don't really want the headache of getting all the FTX scenery to play nicely again (last time, despite having a legit copy, I still ended up having to pirate it because they changed the installer method/site.)

Realistically, I may as well wait for FS2020 to arrive and upgrade the PC instead.
