FSX Scenery and aircraft New and need an answer please

Featured Replies

I am certain this has been answered a million times already.

I am just looking for a simple yes or no type answer or some direct link to an answer.

I am one of those who hung onto FS9 and now with a better WIN10 64 system I have FSX.

I do not have a powerful enough computer to fly P3--- or XP---- just FSX

The question is, WILL P3D sceneries and aircraft run in FSX?

I only ask because I have seen some sceneries and aircraft displayed as able to run in both, and then some that do not say both. Please help so I do not try to install an addon that will screw up my FSX install

Thanks again

Simplest answer is pretty much no!  A P3D (especially ver.4 or above) will have a model that will not show. and other things will not work.  I would suspect the same with scenery.  If it says "both FSX and P3D" compatible,  then it's worth a try.

BTW, Welcome to the AVSIM forums! :happy:

Just going to run a Chromebook and not upgrade to a Windows computer. Too many problems with the new Sims! 😱
Trying to keep peace and harmony and the will of Landru on the site seems to be a full time job!

Some will, and they are likely to be labeled as "FSX and P3D".  Otherwise, scenery designed specifically for P3D, especially versions 4.0 and higher, will usually not work in FSX.
