Getting older aircraft to work with Prepar3dv4
montytheangry replied to montytheangry's topic in The Prepar3d Forum
I very kindly thank you for your advice. I already own everything A2A puts out, Cherokee being great and the Constellation my most favorite of all. I grew up in Kansas City and often visited the Airline Aviation Museum and their airworthy TWA aircraft. There is also another Connie in Topeka Kansas that is a military radar aircraft. Thank you again, Tony -
Getting older aircraft to work with Prepar3dv4

I can't open the file but there are two MDL files, one says ercoupe_ext.MDL the other is the same except ext. is int. I should have never upgraded from v3. Everything worked great! I used to get weather and traffic from v3 injected into Foreflight. Now all I get is my position. I had used some software from Flight1 called Foreflight plug in. But it dosen't seem to work with v4. Got any ideas? Tony -

You know, it is really weird. I can delete and then reinstall and it works once, until I close the sim. Then the next time it causes the sim to crash. No error logging. I can't seem to find anywhere to download the original file. I have since copied and pasted it so many times I can't find what should have been the original file. I will keep trying. Thanks, Tony -

Thanks, ya'll, I have installed it into Pv4, it works once or twice. It really is a good looking, good flying, pretty accurate representation of how an Ercoupe looks and flies. I have tried the flysimware coupe and it is, well, ridiculous in most of its offerings. The look over the nose is pretty bad, very few aircraft have those wheel spats or pants as it was designed by a guy for speed and lastly the flight dynamics are horrible. I like the idea of model converter x, it sounds like what I need. It is possible that I did something to the file way back when, but I just don't remember. Strange that it would work with Pv3 and not v4. Thank you all again, Tony -
I am looking for guidance. I am a pilot not a computer programmer, thus all I know how to do is copy and paste folders. My issue is that I have an original file of the Classic Wings Ercoupe. Its modeling is still very good although the graphics lack a bit. I have successfully copied and pasted all of my other older aircraft into Prepar3dv4 but this file, which worked fine with v3 causes P3d to crash whether from the start screen or when selecting it in the sim. I apologize if this topic has been covered before, but my eyes went numb reading through the plethora of posts and the search function netted zero results. I learned to fly in an Ercoupe, got my license in one in Alaska when I was stationed there in 2008, so it is kinda special to me. I hope someone can help. By the way if anyone wants the file I would be happy to share it. It flew great and looked great in v3. Thanks, Tony
