Juergen2 3 Posted April 16, 2019 Share Posted April 16, 2019 Hi, I just purchased this scenery addon and looking for a installation instruction. Are instructions available to properly install it into P3Dv4.5?? Thanks P.S. I would like to avoid potential problems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted April 16, 2019 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted April 16, 2019 Have you it ever installed in P3dV4? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juergen2 3 Posted April 16, 2019 Author Share Posted April 16, 2019 Otto NO! This would be my first try. I also have ORBX Global Base, Global Vector, Open LC Europe, GSX 2 and UT2. Any problems/cautions with any of these addons? If you know of either a video or a write up, I would appreciate it. Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted April 16, 2019 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted April 16, 2019 I'm currently running it on P3Dv4.4 (no 4.5 cause of fps issues meanwhile confirmed by LM) and have also FTX Global, vector, openLC EU, GES, GSX standard, no UT2 and it runs fine. Regarding FTX, there are options in the configurator for EDDF. So I wold not expect any problems. What you should do in general, not only for EDDF: -- create a folder outside the P3D folder and name it something like ...\P3D Addons -- when you run the installer are being asked where to install EDDF point him to this folder -- this applies to any scenery/aircraft addon supporting the new installation methode for P3D; big advantage is that in case you have to reinstall P3D you do not need to reinstall those addons Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juergen2 3 Posted April 16, 2019 Author Share Posted April 16, 2019 Otto, Will it create FPS problems with P3Dv4.5 or does version 4.5 have inherent FPS problems, which are confirmed by LM? There is a folder, created by P3D named "Prepard3Dv4 Add-ons. It is located in the Documents folder on my C-drive. It contains: FsDream Team Addon Manager, Orbx ObjectFlow2 and utlive. Would this folder qualify for "a folder outside the P3D folder"? Thanks again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted April 18, 2019 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted April 18, 2019 When you buy at Aerosoft a download version and payment has been successful, you always get a confirmation email containing the serial which you also can always find in your shop account When you buy a boxed product the serial number is part of the box. So take care not to get it lost, as there is no way to retrieve it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juergen2 3 Posted April 18, 2019 Author Share Posted April 18, 2019 Sorry to correct you, but I printed all e-mails and there was NO serial number. I think in general a short readme file in the download would eliminate all these questions I had, in particular the install procedure. But thanks for help BTW, I just installed it to my "Prepard3Dv4 Add-ons" folder and it installed ok. Now I'll have to test it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srcooke 422 Posted April 18, 2019 Share Posted April 18, 2019 Juergen, You are correct, the serial number is not contained in the order confirmation but does inform you the details are on your account login: " Selected dispatch: Digital Download After payment you will find the download file and the serial number in your account under the category "Instant downloads".
