Then my hunch is probably correct: I think lots of folks try to simultaneously install aircraft into both FSX and P3D and yet it will only work in one or the other... although typically only FSX. That it works in P3D legacy mode seems to essentially confirm that.

Well, I don't use FSX anymore (in fact it doesn't even work, for whatever reason), and I do not have CS777 installed in FSX.  But FSX remains, just as a placeholder, until I get all the way moved over.  I generally remove stuff as I get it working in P3D.

I can't blame you for wanting to keep your FSX installation (I've moved on, so I can't entirely relate) but we need someone to chime in that's successfully installed a CS aircraft--or any 3rd-party aircraft--into both simulators at the same time in order to see if there's a method that works.

Sorry this is not the case, as I explained above.

Are you suggesting that it work if removed FSX entirely?  

Remember the darn thing works fine in P3D if I enable Legacy Mode.  I'm only looking for a way to get this working in Normal Mode in P3D.

Not to upset CS (although I'm becoming doubtful that they meander into their own forum with any regularity these days) but I'm pretty sure you don't need to purchase another 777. Once you have a setup with only one simulator, I'll betcha it works.

Again you are saying it will work when FSX is totally uninstalled?  Because I DO NOT have CS777 installed in two places.

If you have space left on your hard drive(e.g. 40+ gb), you could try partitioning off a large block and installing windows, P3D, and the aircraft to ensure that it works. If it does, delete the partition and merge it back into the rest of the drive. But that's a lot of hassle...

Agreed.  Not going there.
