Milviz and P3D V5

[micstatic 4,319]

I would love it in p3d.  

[Daytona125 225]

Just so you guys and gals know I’ve been using the king air in v5 and it seems to be working great, it is actually my favourite plane and I have all the big named planes. And I only use VR with setting fairly high. I do have a 3080 though. My favourite plane!

I've given up on new installers for P3Dv5. I just don't believe it is going to happen. A2A got out installers in a timely manner and I am sure that Milviz has the talent. Sad to say this because some of my favorite airplanes have come from these folks. I hope I'm wrong.

Depends on the aircraft, I have my PC6 Porter running fine in v5....

We are working on an ATR 72/42 600.  The decision about whether or not to port this over to MSFS has not yet been made.  We are also looking at how we would do a consumer release and avoid commercial clients (potentially) using it for training....  things to think about....

I was actually referring to P3D so I am happy.

I got the Carenado a couple of days ago but looking forward to upgrade to Milviz level (soon?!)

How did you accomplish that? Does it have any anomalies?

Still waiting on the darn Lear and Avanti!!! 😅

There's always the FSW Lear35, another great aircraft.

Just copied the simobject folder over, and ensured that xmltools was installed. No anomalies found to date.

I'm still hoping that they restore the Sperry 177 autopilot and FMC to the 737-200 for P3Dv4.

that one isn't going to happen.... and we're no longer going to be supporting P3D v4....

We have discussed this and, sad to say, (for P3D), that the SR will be going into MSFS... we MAY try to do it for both... but....

Well I will be happy to see it MSFS as I use both sims. I also hope there might be a training version so to speak as I hear the real one can be quite the handful to fly. Sometimes we want all the visual beauty but just want to go for a quick run around the block without having to learn every system. Just a thought. I do not know how difficult of an option this would be to implement. Also we appreciate the communication from you. Thanks.

That's too bad, and it's why I won't be buying any more of your products.

I realize that you converted the 737-200 to P3Dv4 at no cost, which was appreciated, but I would have gladly paid a reasonable sum for the conversion if it would have included the newer autopilot and FMC which the version that I purchased included.  Now I'm stuck with a true steam gauge plane which is not very realistic as many 737-200s have upgraded avionics nowadays.

Instead, your policy is to abandon products for previous versions of P3D, which would force me to change simulators every few years to newer versions in order to use your products, which I am not willing to do.  P3Dv4 is only a few years old and you've already decided to abandon it.

The Milviz King Air has had a v5 installer for some time now.   It is also one of my favorites.  Milviz did a great job.

Look it's no secret that I'm critical but let me real world interpret, there's a quote "The only difference between a rich person and a poor person is how they use their time". Top tier companies who do study level products have to use their time where the money is and at the present time it's MSFS. However to enjoy those spoils and unlike P3D you must eh... bend the knee to the way "they" do things. So far none of the top tiers has eh... how should I put it, submitted a product but we will have to wait and see how far a company will go to sacrifice their reputation for said product.

Abandoning P3D and XP will come at a cost it just remains to see how much, just my humble opinion.
