I installed it in V4 and duplicated that into V5, i.e. in my case, copying the RealTurb Europe folder:

From here: C:\Users\Al\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons

To here: C:\Users\Al\Documents\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons

Did the same with RealVolMet Europe as well.

Thanks.

revisiting an old thread.  Finally added the real program.  Strangely in p3d under addons I see it is installed.  But when I look thru my lorbys add on list it does not show real turb anywhere???  Did a quick approach into Reno expecting to feel some turbulence.  I didn't feel anything different.  Any other tips for a method to verify proper installation?  I thought for sure I'd feel a difference. 

You certainly should feel a difference.

In my Lorby the RealTurb areas are listed in  "Other Addons" and filtering by DLL should help display.

And the vid shows the effects I've been getting (note I also have ASN running given RealTurb plugs into the ASN API for data, plus I have A2A's Accu-Feel as well which will add its contributions).

When I tested it I trialed in Africa over mountinaous areas (a saved test flight with on/off type scenarios) and it certainly had an effect, enough to make me purcahse the full range.

Cheers.

@Rogen Thanks for your reply.  I was able to find it properly listed in lorbys.  thanks for that pointer.  I guess I will have to do more tests.  Do you mind sharing your relevant Active Sky settings so I can make sure mine are in line?

Oh yes, totally worth it. I has a lot of logic, and according to terrain shape. Needs ActiveSky to work as intended (needs weather data in order to calculate the logic correctly).
