Hi
As I‘m desperately hoping for a Geneva release for P3Dv4, I‘m now wondering if the new released scenery on simmarket for v5 could work in v4? Do you have any experiences in backward compatibility or maybe is here anyone who has v5 and v4 installed and can test it or tell me if the LSGG altitude in v5 is the same as in v4?
Kind Regards
Patrick

There is also Aerosoft version which works in v4, don’t know about v5 yet, I’m in transition atm. There is also FSDT version but i don’t if it has been updated for v4/v5.

Generally sceneries made specifically for certain version don’t work in older versions.

Ask in the FSDT forum. You're bound to get a definitive answer there.

I bought LSGG while still in FSX and now that I'm using P3Dv4.5 I have no issues with it. I'm fairly certain that you won't have a prob with the latest version while running v4.but best to check with the developer himself.

The FSDT version works in FSX, and all versions of P3d. It's on the older side but it works just fine.

I‘m speaking of this version:

LSGG

all other scenies are outdated.

I could not resist and installed it this morning into my P3Dv4. Almost everythin is working fine, except:

- The Afcad is not recognised. The AI Traffic stands incorrect and the Afcad file can not be opened with ADE.
- I have red surrounding even after disabling the photscenery.
I hope this is not a big deal for the dev. All buildings are working fine, even SODE is working correctly. I contacted the dev. with my findings approximately an hour ago. Hopefully we will see this scenery in v4 too. Maybe also anyone of you have a solution to get rid of this two issues. I'm not realy experienced in scenery design but offered the developer my help to test it if he can provide me new files to test.

Latest Update.

-> With the newest version of ADE I was now able to load the AFCAD and compile it for v4. I will send it immediately to the dev. now.-
-> The red surounding arround the airport disapears when I deactivate the Photoscenery I use for Switzerland. So it seems as the scenery is compatible with P3Dv4.
I'll wait what the dev. will write my.

Kind Regards

I can confirm, what I wrote earlier today. In my opinion, the scenery works fine in P3Dv4 with ORBX.
I sent the v4 Afcad to the Dev.
The red/black field is only in combination with the Photoscenery I use for Switzerland:

As soon as I deactivate it, it looks good. Anyone of you have a clue what can cause such conflicts with photsceneries? I use almos all of his Photosceneries for Europe and nowwhere else I have this issue.

The last few days I did manage to get it work with v4. I was also in contact with the Dev. and he told me that he might have a look in v4 but it takes some time.

1. The problem with the photoscenery is solved. It had nothing to do with the scenery but with the Photoscenery of Switzerland which I use.
The link to it is above. There are airportfiles inside it and the LSGG file has to be deleted. After this it works.

2. There is a small elevation issue with the subway. I had also to delete the subway.bgl.

3. I had to convert the Afacad with ADE to v4. as v4 did not recognise the v5 afcad. I also changed the Gate assignments.
I can also ask the dev. if i can share my AFCAD for v4.

4. What is also wrong, Parking stand 61 is doublicated. There are also a few details missing at the new Terminal. The ground marking "dashed line" to Gate 181 / 182 / 191 / 192 are missing.

All these details I reported to the dev. a few days ago.

But this are only a few details. All in all, the scenery in my opinion looks brilliant. I've been in Geneva in July in RL and it is really well done. 

I try to post some rintscreens in the next few day out of my P3Dv4.5. I'm not home right now.

PLEASE KEEP IN MIND IT'S NOT OFFICALY FOR P3DV4. I DO NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY IF ANYONE BUY IT AFTER THIS THREAD. 

Kind Regards
