They will, yes.  As well, those products that do not yet have PBR...  will have it.

I would be most happy with an Otter without PBR if I could have it sooner in V5.

All of our products going into v5 will be PBR'd.  If we didn't, then we'd be getting complaints about how bad it looks...

The Otter is a beat up old bush plane that's supposed to look bad. Seriously I would be happy to pay for the installer now with PBR upgrade to come. No complaint from me. Just make it understood.

if you go and get the latest version in the support forum, that one uses far FAR less vram... so yes.  That is fixed.  The reason it's still unreleased is due the yet to be fixed issues in v5 itself.

could you please explain what you did to make it work?

I used a method described here https://simmershome.de/prepar3d-v4-installer-in-prepar3d-v5-nutzen/. It's in German but all steps are easy to follow. You create symbolic links to make the v4 installer put all files into the proper v5 folders. This is meant to be used if you don't have v4 anymore on your computer. 

I believe that a manual install with the add-on.xml method should also work provided that the xmltools are installed into v5 and that the MVAMS folder is copied from the v4 appdata\local folder into the corresponding one of v5.

A new version with PBR and a proper installer would of course be better than the above.

Unfortunately, there's nothing minor about getting our products to work in v5... those that "do" work, don't do so properly... It's up to you to try it or not.

You see, your products are so good that even when they do not work properly they are still essential for some of us. Looking forward to the next versions.

Fully appreciate however long it takes, could you give us the order you are expecting to do the conversion work in at all please?
