Hi everyone.
I was wondering if there is going to be a prepar3d V3.1 installer for the superb acu sim Spitfire, I have it on my FSX install and it is the aircraft I fly the most, I also have the C 172, the Comanche and the acu feel core all for FSX, do I need to purchase new licences for all of these please ?

Hello,
no plans to recreate the remake the Spitfire for P3D at this time. Our professional P3D simulations can be purchased from the P3D section of the store here;

Re: Prepar3d V3.1 installer
I've just installed the Spitfire in P3D3.1 by redirecting the installer to P3D manually.it appears to work fine!!

Re: Prepar3d V3.1 installer
Yes you can port the aircraft but its not officially supported and we cannot validate the physics or flight modelling on the P3D platform when using FSX software on it.ggi wrote:I've just installed the Spitfire in P3D3.1 by redirecting the installer to P3D manually.it appears to work fine!!

Re: Prepar3d V3.1 installer
Lewis answered your question in the second post of "no plans". I'm a P3D user as well but one must understand that P3D is not for entertainment use but for commercial and training...A2A's P3d native installers fall under that with their GA planes. Just be happy that all A2A planes and the updater currently work flawlessly in the most current version of P3D let it be by native installers or port overs.sleightflight wrote:Ok, thanks guys.

That's excellent news. For the Spitfire do I just point the installer to the P3DV3.1 directory or is there anything else to do?

Re: Prepar3d V3.1 installer
That's what I did, but I also made a copy of the P3d.exe and renamed it FSX. Worked well for me, so far I have the J-3, P-40., P-51, Spitfire and B377 installed this way along with P3D versions of the Comanche and C172
Re: Prepar3d V3.1 installer
Thank you very much for the clarification, I will try that tomorrow and let you know how I get on.
Re: Prepar3d V3.1 installer
Fantastic, only had a few flights but seems to work perfectly so no need for FSX SE now. Thank you very much for the suggestion. Will now install my Cub. (Just like to add that I wood repurchase the aircrafts if a fully supported P3DV3 version came out.)
Re: Prepar3d V3.1 installer
Glad it worked well for you. I completely agree, I would definitely purchase a P3D version if available, though I am thankful that A2A is very supportive of users doing this on their own. One of the best customer support companies out there.

Re: Prepar3d V3.1 installer
I'm going to bump this old thread to beg for a P3D installer as well. Previously I'd been using the Estonia Migration Tool for a few things that didn't have P3D v3 installers, but in the end I think it kind of wrecked my sim This seems to work well enough by pointing the directory usually, but I'd still love to see a native installer for one of my favorite planes!
Thanks,

Re: Prepar3d V3.1 installer
If it was as easy as making a new installer we would have done it many years ago but as you discovered with your porting a P3D product is a P3D product, it has its own SDK and its own formats etc etc. It is a separate product.shortspecialbus wrote:I'm going to bump this old thread to beg for a P3D installer as well.

Re: Prepar3d V3.1 installer
Oh, for sure. I'd be willing to buy a revamped version of the Spitfire or pay a fee of some sort for a P3D v3.1 installer.Lewis - A2A wrote:If it was as easy as making a new installer we would have done it many years ago but as you discovered with your porting a P3D product is a P3D product, it has its own SDK and its own formats etc etc. It is a separate product.shortspecialbus wrote:I'm going to bump this old thread to beg for a P3D installer as well.

Re: Prepar3d V3.1 installer
This is still the aircraft I choose to fly more than any other aircraft in my simulator, and I have plenty of very good aircraft.
