Hello A2A simmers T-6, i buy T-6 for FSX in march 2016, due to computer change i reinstalled it and i crashed the plane so i tried to have it repaired (i think F7) but i discovered that i did not have all the F1 2 3 4 etc functions which means the plane could not be repared.
As i want to defenitively switch on P3D V4 i bought today the T-6 for P3D V4 this means i bought it twice :cry: however when you love you don't count.
So i installed T-6 on P3D V4 and lauch it. Surprise i get the T-6 with the propeller bended like in FSX and no way of getting the F1,2,3;;;;7 functions. I do love T-6 and so i :cry:
Can any body tell me how to repair or correct this issue, i suppose the issue is the fact to not be able to use the F1,2,3,4,5,6,7 functions ??????? i am not verry computer mind so ....understandable help would please me.
Thank you for your help

You need to press Shift-1 through Shift-8 to access those functions. Try that and see if it works. Also don't forget to check the user manual in addition to posting on the forums if in doubt about certain features.

Hello to all of you,
On my PC i have FSX and P3D V4, i have since 2016 T-6 on FSX, question: how come when i installed yesterday T-6 on P3D the FIRST execution showed the dammage situation of T-6 in FSX (propeller bended due to crash), what is the interconnection between both and
considering this FACT is it necessary to buy T-6 twice as i did???????
Thank you

Hi.
Did you run the latest update for P3Dv4 and also it sounds like you might be missing the correct simconnect , if you search the forums you should find the answers for checking and installing the correct simconnect as others have had similar issues.

I believe the files that keep track of hours and wear are the same between FSX and P3D. Those are found in your my documents folder.
