Yes, but no definite plans or timescales. Its on a per plane basis as the FSX fleet will require varying amounts of work to be moved and create P3Dv4 software.

thanks,

For what it’s worth, I’m patiently hoping and waiting for the Stratocruiser to be upgraded/refurbished to P3dV4+ and have funds ready.... the other iconic 4 engined Boeing (B-17G) too! :a2a: :a2awhite: :a2a:

For what it´s worth, here are my 2 cents...
I am using the Stratocruiser in P3D4 without any visible problem. Only my career is over and cannot be reset :?

Hi

It's been ages since I posted here. I just wanted to add a post to let you guys know that I'm also hoping to see this great aircraft fly once again. I think it is the most interesting aircraft A2A ever did, and I've really tried to keep it going since I moved from FSX to P3D. It appeared to be fully working in P3Dv3 ages ago. I bought a new PC recently and tried it in version 4 where of course there are some problems although I did manage to get it partially working with no obvious visual flaws. The lights, main sounds and menus worked and so on, but I guess the 32-bit dlls associated with the complex systems weren't working. It does start if you use the autostart and put the FE in charge, so it's quite tantalising to see it idling on the apron. It's like a vintage aircraft waiting to be made air worthy again! I'd be happy with a minimal compatibility update for now.

I can honestly say that in the 25 years I've been messing with Flight Simulators, the accusim/CoTS versions of this aircraft was the best experience I can remember in terms of aircraft systems and engine management immersion. This aircraft was an engineering masterpiece brought to our desktops as a technical history lesson.

Oh and while I'm here the B-17 was great too. Miss that also.

Hi Jason,

I can only underline that!
For me (FS since the days of Commodore C64 and Amiga500 and A.T.P.) the B377 was the reason to switch to FSX!!! It was announced as FSX only and as I wanted it so badly I made the "jump" from FS9 to FSX for that masterpiece....

As I said, I am still able to use it in P3D4 v4.5, but with limitations. That is why I strongly and whoieheartedly support a quick update to make it compatible with P3D4 64bit versions.
I hope that A2A will not wait until FS2020 sees the light of day though :-(

Happy Easter and Stay Safe!

I think FS2020 is the elephant in the room for all P3D developers at the moment...
