I have done some testing by copying a scenery file  D:\P3DV4\Scenery\0903

and put it in my P3DV5 folder E:\P3DV5\Scenery\0903, after renaming the P3DV5 0903 to off so that voxatc will index the p3dv4 0903.

Voxatc no longer crash with the above. So it seems that P3Dv5 scenery file is different from p3dv4.

There's a malformed airport file in  APX75310.bgl with an ICAO code =TEST that is co-located with WIDD, Hang Nadim Airport, Bantam, Indonesia.  The airport TEST has no runways or much of anything else. It looks like LM was testing something and forgot to remove the test airport

I'm still following this thread, but I've stopped using VoxATC with P3Dv5HF1 for the time being.  I prefer seeing AI, so I'm using default ATC if any, with Lorby Live Traffic and it's okay.  P2ATC won't interact with the injected AI, so I might as well stick with stock until either VoxATC or something closer is available...departures are actually pretty realistic, enroute is okay, but almost never any traffic at arrival....

Same here. I can't get used to P2ATC anymore and hence use the default ATC too. The VOXATC Indexer works okay with P3d5, but if one includes an airport compiled withe P3d5 SDK in your flightplan, VOXATC says the airport has no runways. Since all my 3rd party airports have been updated, as has fsaerodata, VOXATC is basically dead.

We do know that the ATC in MSFS 2020  (from a thread here on AVSim) is only a modest improvement over FSX, at least for now. Unless VOXATC is updated for MSFS,  we may have seen the last of realistic ATC in a flightsim.

This "laggard"  has to ask, given all the above reports, do you see any / other worthy reasons to invest in P3D5 (& perhaps  for me a W10 investment)

The performance of V5 is *MUCH* better for me.  It's a very smooth flying experience, which for me justifies it's use over v4.5.  I can run with dozens of AI planes injected using Lorby Live Traffic and still have >30 fps with complex aircraft and all orbx scenery...

Yes, but it's just default ATC at the moment.

welcome back ....... 😄

It requires too much messing around just to make VOXATC work with P3d5, although it is possible. The choice is either P3d4 with VOXATC or P3d5 with the default ATC. LM is still tinkering with P3d5, so there's no urgency to switch. But, the trueSky clouds are so nice and the performance is so much better in V5.

P3d4 with VOXATC

& a flat earth ,,,,,,,

All working great in p3d v5 used the new v5 migration tool  it is in beta but voxatc is working as good as in v4

Hi ! 

I tried to install voxatc in my p3d v5 with migration tool wich is in alpha.

I successed on my laptop but, it's in french. The popup voxatc, the indexer are ok, but cannot initalise... normal in this case...

So I will try later on my PC in english...

C'est en tout cas une excellente nouvelle !

In any case, this is excellent news!
