(Still regarding ChasePlane) has anyone tested TrackIR?

I can't get it to work with V6. But I'm only familiar with using it via ChasePlane, so I don't know how to get it working directly with 3D. 

edit: @djbully how'd you get trackir to work with V6?

Literally just run the Track IR software and load up p3d. If it not working could be a sim connect issue try installing the legacy sim connects.

It has something to do with the simconnect.manifest files, which must be renamed if I remember correctly. On the track ir forum, there must be some information about this...

Thanks that looks like a bright spot anyway.

I am a big AI guy and I install all my AI manually (one of the reasons I refuse to use MSFS) using AIFP. Does anyone know if that works in P3D v6? The creator of AIFP passed away a few months ago so there will not be any updates for AIFP. If that does not work in v6 I will have to find something else to use (I refuse to use AIG AI Manager)

Will Orbx release an independant installer sometime?

I am the one that tested the a330 as well, I did a scratch install with the registry option and something is very wrong, I was getting 7fps, the efb had a white screen, it was just a mess for me, I suspect real light has something to do with it. I installed the 787 with the flight one app, The plane was normal for me, accept the screens were black. I was able to pop out each panel and program a flight no problem. I also tried switching the screens to HD with no luck. It's like it's missing fonts or they were not installed correctly. We know aerosoft will not fix the busses, But if QW could fix the screens, it would be a working aircraft. I shut down the engines, apu worked fine, all other lighting was fine, Engine startup was fine for me from cold and dark. Not sure why someone else had issues starting the engines, But Someone else said he almost had the a330 working. Even without developer support, I am sure we will find workarounds for alot of these add-ons. I don't have any previous p3d versions installed. I will most likely keep trying addon and go back to using 5.4 until we hear from everyone what the future holds.

Lorby's (essential in my mind) P3D Add-On Organizer has been updated to work with V6 👍

Boy, xplane looking better all the time.

Except that it is a completely different set of control instructions to learn and honestly, I just can't be bothered.
