B377 in P3D v3.2

Post by azkid6372 »

I bought the B377+COTS as advertised installed it to FSX/Acceleration. The B377 is available.

I ran the last updater of 5-9-16. It recognized the Cherokee, Comanche and C182 and went thru the update checks. It did not recognize the WOS B377 but find did the COTS. it seems as though everything went fine but after I rebooted and opened P3D v3 the B377 was not listed.
There is no B377 folder in the A2A folder in the root P3D v3 or the
SimObjects. The Cherokee, Comanche an C182 folders are in both places.

What did I do wrong?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I'm confused you first say FSX and then P3D?

thanks,

Hello Lewis
I bought the B377+ COTS bundle
I installed the B377+COTS into FSX.
Then I used the 5-9-16 Accusim Update to enable the B377 in p3d v3 but B377 is not in the aircraft selections in p3d v3.
What did I do wrong?

Hello,

the B377 isnt supported in P3D. The updater updates the aircraft it doesn't make a P3D product.

thanks,

If you want to fly it in P3D, you need to install it in P3D, not FSX. Installing it in FSX won't make it appear in P3D as well.

There are instructions on how to install into P3D directly in the general B377 folder.

Good luck! It does work great in P3D once installed.

Can you direct me to the "general folder" or even better the thread that you are reffering to? I can't find it though searching.

Thanks
