ASAP

Hello guys,
Any News on a P3Dv5 update?

Would be great if at least an estimate could be provided.

Thanks

Curious. How is that 737 still working in P3Dv5?

Hello, im trying to makedoago on p3dv4.5 was crashing the sim, and NOW do the same, checking on windows events viewer it talks about a API.DLL failure  could somebody help me

thanks

Tried to install on P3D 5.1. My textures became all black... Anyone else with this same problem?

We have a glass fleet pretty much except for the L1011 and I'll be happy to see a classic with shorter legs. I suspect most people want the shiny new things, though. I will continue to support a good outfit who hasn't split resources between P3D and MSFS, or worse, just not brought their products forward. I think the community at large needs to notice that. But personally, I would rather see the 737 or 727 than the "Captain Sim Airbus." 

I'm glad I'm not a dev at this moment. Between
novel programming and an unreleased SDK on one hand and the awful incremental updates on the other, there's got to be a lot of uncertainty for them. I'm not updating past 5.1 until I have a really, really good reason to.

You know, when I came back to the hobby just a few weeks ago, I probably would have stuck with FSX. I couldn't find it for love or money. Holy cow, I was comparing the latest light pack from a certain dev to pictures of my old CS 727 with A2A Shockwave lights... We've lost a lot of ground with P3D that I hope we'll gain back soon.

Was hoping for January 7, maybe, but if 2020 was a dumpster fire, 2021 is a flaming freight train heading for a collapsed bridge over a gorge full of dynamite and sharks.

Ah, it's been so long. Good to have this back in v5 and better than ever. Taking off from Burbank Bob Hope Airport.

My fault, the mentioned overhaul package installed FSLabs Spotlights, which can be set with the application outside of the sim.

I did a few flights now and really wonder, why CS never did an P3D5 installer for this plane. The only thing needed to adapt is the dll.xml modification. That shouldn´t take years.

Hi blaunarwal,

With the Total Overhaul Mod, there is a a panel state option through the the PCS (as I'm sure you know). The Where Are My Airplanes app is great, if you don't have it. I don't know exactly what your goals are here, but if you don't have WAMA, do yourself a favor and check it out. It really is an amazing little gizmo that does so much more than the title suggests.

Yeah, the panel lighting is great with FSSpotlights app that comes with the mod.

I have the base and advanced model working perfectly. ACE doesn't work at all, but that's not a show-stopper. Lots and lots of excellent liveries are out there still. Just flew Buenos Aires to Ushuaia in the Aerolinas Argentina livery. Sweet.

I had been considering adding the freighter because the mod does include that as an option. I don't care about panel states, but if the loader crashes, then I'd pass. How bad is this?

With so few classics available for P3D v5.2, it's nice to have the old 737 which is as good as anything in my very large hanger and the better of the 737-200s available with the mod. I believe CS has moved on from those old planes, though. It's a lot of work to fly a 732 or L1011 and have to make it go up and down yourself

Hi Tim

I have WAMA and did't use it for a while now. But maybe it's time to revisit it. I will certainly also check out the panel state option, if this can be a help for me.

Actually I also intend to fly to Ushuaia. I left the US over Key West and landed in Varadero last night. It's a long way to go still.
