Just wondering if anyone has this FSX scenery and if it works on P3DV5.

Thanks

I do. It does work fine with v5 except approaches are mistakenly offset by several degrees (even though the approach heading matches the Jepp chart) and when you select Active Runway from the airport selection box, the location is offset from the runway (rather than the a/c being squarely on the numbers) by several yards or so. I think this is due to the difference in mapping between FSX and v5. If somebody is skilled in ADE, perhaps this can be fixed. It appears Bajasim is no longer supporting this since they haven't responded to any of my emails requesting this be fixed. With those two relatively small issues, it works great. There really isn't any other version worth using IMHO.

Thanks for your reply with the information as regards issues, will buy it and see if I can fix the misalignment although not certain if it will with ADE. If successful will post the result.

 

Best regards

Looking forwards to seeing if you can fix it. Since I live in Tucson, close to the Border with Mexico, I love flying in Mexico. Seems that Mexico is somewhat ignored, especially with photoscenery 😞

Tried installing this into p3d's folder but I receive the error "you must enter a full path with drive letter or a unc path in the form..." Do I need to have FSX installed on my system for this to install?

[pgde 571]

I didn't. What you may need to do is to a "fake" P3D v4 install and then copy the folders into P3D v5. It was a while ago when I installed it and don't really remember the details 😞

Yep that did it. Created a backup of my registry and was able to trick the installer into thinking it was FSX. Thanks!

If you get the heading issue resolved with ADE, please let me know how you did it!

Follow the instructions for installing FSX addons into p3dv2/3 (just make sure your directory path points to p3dv5). Backup your registry before doing this to be safe. You will need to manual add the scenery to your library within p3d as well.
