172 FSX/ P3D

Post by jagerderek »

Hello, I just bought the 172 Trainer Accu-Sim for FSX/P3D. The installer wants to put it in FSX, but I use P3Dv4. Is there a separate installer for P3D, or will it work if I point installer to P3D and install. I purchased from 'simshack' but can't seem to get any reply from them. Thanks! Any help appreciated! Derek

Hi Derek and welcome to the A2A forums.

If you purchased the dual FSX / P3D licence, there should be three separate installers you receive: one for FSX, one for the 32-bit versions of P3D (v1-3) and a final installer for the 64-bit P3Dv4.

Not sure if these installers are downloadable separately in your SimShack account, or if they're all contained inside one archive.

Thanks,
Nick

P.S. Moved this topic to the C172 support forum.

I installed it in P3Dv2.5 by pointing the installer to my P3D installation. As far as I know it works fine, but the FSX version is unsupported in P3D.

There is a separate purchase for P3D and the FSX version will not work in P3Dv4. When you buy the P3D version it has installers for different versions of Prepar3D including version 4.
