Once Again I don't want to bother Bob/AVSIM Admin with yet another HJG specific PR whilst this one from May is still prominently visible (any problems Bob just drop me a PM) ;) LIke to advise anyone interested ....

Again I don't want to bother Bob/AVSIM Admin with another HJG specific PR whilst this one from May is still prominently visible (any problems Bob just drop me a PM) ;) Just want to advise though .... the HJG website was updated again yesterday with another 66X new files covering the B727-100/200, B737-300/400/500, BAC ONE-ELEVEN 400/500 (DMFS), DC-9-10/40/50, DC-10-10CF/F (MD-10F), HS121 TRIDENT 1/2E (DMFS), L-1011 TRISTAR 1, and MD-82. All freely available .... as per the following linked announcement .... https://tonymadgehjg.proboards.com/thread/10216/hjg-website-update-november-2022

I don't want to bother the AVSIM Admin team with yet another HJG PR whilst this last one, from 3 months ago, is still conspicuous (no desire to monopolize the visable commmunity news space more than necessary) .... but for whatever it's worth HJG have, today, just released another 76X new textures for the B727, B737, BAC ONE-ELEVEN, BAe 146, DC-8, DC-9, DC-10, DH COMET, L-1011 TRISTAR, and MD-90 models it hosts .... https://tonymadgehjg.proboards.com/thread/10190/website-update-august-25th-2022?page=1&scrollTo=71291

A small number of "upgraded/further improved" files were released by HJG yesterday .... July 29th 2022. These may viewed per the following link .... https://tonymadgehjg.proboards.com/thread/10178/mini-website-update-july-28th

Glad you're obviously enjoying the MERCURE 100 .... it is indeed very technically inclined simulation of a unique/rare airliner. 2 separate versions of it are offered .... one specifically for FS9 use only .... and the other for specifically FSX use only. P3DV4 portability (I won't say compatibility) is "a surprise" because AFAIK such was "unintended" .... so I reserve my commentary in regard to P3D and more-so since HJG can't provide P3D support. Important to credit this MERCURE 100 simulation to "Mario NORIEGA" .... and not HJG :) HJG did assist Mario with some elements of this/his simulation (namely FDE, sound, and WX Radar), but, it's otherwise "entirely Mario's simulation" .... and which HJG hosts for him and by consent 😉

That's "not" entirely correct. Some HJG simulations may (possibly) still work in FS2002, but, others (be their panels/gauges/modules and/or textures) "most certainly won't". Just to clarify these FS related compatibilities .... HJG simulations are FS2004 "native" with most also now being FSX "portable" .... as per the following-linked list .... https://tonymadgehjg.proboards.com/thread/8910/fsx-compatible-portable In any case HJG "does not" now provide FS2002 support. I was also recently informed "some of" (not all of) the HJG simulations may in fact be P3D "V3" (only .... definitely not V4 or later though) portable too, but, not yet having seen evidence of, or being able to properly assess this "for myself", I say such "WITH RESERVATION".

That's correct. HJG is an FS2004 hangar ... with most of it offering also being FSX portable also.

For those interested .... HJG have just (today/as of a few minutes ago) added another 12X textures to their December/Christmas 2019 release .... featuring an assortment of "new" B707, B727, DC-8, DC-9, and MD-80 textures which didn't make the groups large release of "DECEMBER 14TH". For further information refer to the following HJG website announcement .... http://tonymadgehjg.proboards.com/thread/9614/website-update-december-29th-2019 MRC HJG
