Got ATSimulations An2 to fly with a little help from ATS

A new file for Panel did the trick

Was loading OK but crashed P3Dv5- now all good and flying

Thanks ATS!

Are they planning a v5 installer in the near future?

I contacted them direct by email- quick response

No word of v5 installer

Dave...when I run the installer, all Flight Simulator options are not allowing me to check them.  Any help would be appreciated.

Do you have v4 installed?  I selected v4 for install and then pointed it at my v5 addons folder. I would guess if you don’t still have v4 installed you wouldn’t be able to do this?

TOGA Projects have been keeping this blog entry updated on the status of v5 projects. Looks like as of 4/20 at 1700 UTC they were done with coding and are building installers... https://www.togaprojects.com/forum/general/p3d-v5-products-status

So we may be lucky enough to see those all updated yet this week!

Ok, thanks.

Besides that there is another official recommendation, was anyone of you able to merge the PMDG 777 to P3D V5? And is there any risk for the license in trying it out?

Thanks and regards

AFAIK the only risk is that you will not have any official support by PMDG if you have problems.

KTNP - Twentynine Palms has a v5 installer downloadable from their store.

I have KTNP installed in V5 - works OK

Does not seem quite so full on as in V4.5 

Everything seems to be there- perhaps will be more lively as further Orbx Addons come up to speed

Thanks for the response.  At the time, I had uninstalled v4.  And later on I reinstalled v4, then pointed the installer to v5, and it worked just fine.  Again thanks for the response.

Keep 'em flying.

If V5 is the only version that I have, I won't be able to get the PDMG or QualityWings aircraft to work- is that correct? 

[Chock 17,769]

Nope, the Quality Wings 787 is working okay for me in P3D V5. I've not tried any PMDG aeroplanes in it as yet, so I don't about those. The CS 757 works in it by the way too:

Yep, the QW787 and CS 757 work by poihnting the installers to the V5 folder. Make sure to delete any folders and files with the name "trueglass" in the guages folder to avoid crashes. I suspect this would hold true for any V4 aircraft that use trueglass.

Whats the missing/catch by doing so?

Thanks Michael Moe
