Thanks. 

Wow.  You guys really rocked this update!   Everything seems so much smoother, and all the issues that I was aware of are fixed.   

I really wanted to fall in love with this plane as much as I did with the 727 and 737 packages, but really couldn't with all the issues.  Now I am in love with this gorgeous plane.

Yeah, like Jim Carrey says on Dumb and Dumber movie....." I like It A Lot " !!


Thanks

I have both the 200 & 300 installed...should I uninstall the -200 then install the new version?  What about the -300?

yes, the lights are working; I fly such planes for FSX and with a complex system deep in legacy mode. Only the sounds of switches and seat belts/no smoking were not to hear. I looked in the sound.ini and it looks like that there:

SoundOffWhenSimIsSlew=1
SoundOffWhenSimIsPaused=1
SoundOffWhenSimDialogIsOpen=1
SoundOffWhenSimSoundIsOff=1

I put all of them to zero, tomorrow I'll check if the sounds are back again.

A first resumee: the plane works very well now! Superb starting, cruising and autolanding. Autopilot makes no problems at all and the performance is very well too, even in P3Dv2.2.

hi Rich,

after installing the Estonia tool you have a shortcut called Prepar3D v2 legacy mode. In your P3d- root folder there is a file called fsx.exe now. In the syntax starting the sim this file is attached and it looks like that:

"D:\Prepar3D v2\fsx.exe"

D is my volume for the sim. No other tweaks are nessessary to get the plane flying.
And yes of course, the tool is running. I didn't test without it and there is no reason for it, the tool makes no problems.

Kai,

It is not the case for me that, once having installed the CS777 Version 1.4 into P3D v2 using the Estonia Migration Tool, certain exterior lights work when running P3D v2 in legacy mode.

The lights in question are the wing lights (nav, wing and strobe) and the tail lights. Moreover, the beacon lights do work but are extremely faint. Although this does not detract from what appears to be most people's experience of a greatly improved and enjoyable virtual flying experience with the 1.4 update, I would be grateful if you kindly confirm that all such lights are working in your simulation and whether any special tweaks were required to achieve this.

I have read on the L1011 forum that special measures were required to get similar lights working with the L1011 on P3D, e.g. reloading the vehicle ( I have tried this with the CS777 to no avail).

Your comments would  be most welcome here, please.
