Wilco P3D V4 installers

According to their website, there are a few Wilco products which now come with a P3DV4 installer, including the Harrier.

Now available with a Prepar3D v4 installer :
FK14 Polaris - Harrier Jump Jet - TBM850 - Tecnam P2006T - Tilt Rotor.


I'm not sure how you go about getting the installer if you have a boxed version though?

Not sure about this: Does it mean, now all features are working in P3Dv4? Gauges, VTOL system? Or does it only install the aircraft fine in v4....Would be very interesting....

Allegedly everything works except the HUD. But I’ve not tried the new installer yet.

I hope you don't mind me bumping this but I was wondering if anyone had any luck with the Razbam Harrier in P3D v4?

The majority of the bits and pieces seem to work at a glance, it's just the VTOL system that doesn't.

I have the SSW one but I prefer the Razbam, it's got a much wider choice of toys to hang under the wings (the lack of AIM-120 is especially annoying on the SSW at the moment, I've e-mailed them and they have no plans to add it).

The Razbam Harriers work but unfortunately the payload selection screen doesn't work (dll problem I guess) so your stuck with the ferry tanks and consequently no VTOL. Disappointing.

From the V4 Compatibility thread. I'm also a user of both models in FSX, and was looking to bring them over to P3D. I have been flying the Raz on a different platform (DCS) with working VTOL.

I'm in the same boat. I've tried my best to get this working, but to no avail.
I can do conventional takeoff and landings, and even managed to do a very bumpy "VTOL-like" landing at 50-60 knots the other day, but VTOL takeoffs are impossible. The nose pitches up no matter what I do, and sends the Harrier on it's back.
And yeah, while I do have the SSW Harrier, I really do like the Razbam version, for the same reasons as you. Sure wish there could be a solution on the horizon...

Ok, here we go!

First, you need the 2D HUD Control Panel.

[Window Titles]
.
.
WindowXX=HUD Controls

and

//--------------------------------------------------------
[WindowXX]
size_mm=175,585
window_size= 0.104,0.557
window_pos = 0.776, 0.45
visible = 1
ident = HUD Controls


gauge00=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!Panel_Background, 0,0,175,585
gauge01=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!Nav1CRS, 55,489,32,32
gauge02=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!Nav2CRS, 55,529,32,32
gauge03=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!GPS CRS, 55,445,32,32
gauge04=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!Nav-GPS, 75,267,37,74
gauge05=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!HUD Clock, 45,336,90,50
gauge06=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!HUD Steering Switch, 68,376,37,74
gauge07=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!HUD Color Switch, 35,160,28,28
gauge08=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!HUD Altitude Switch, 35,200,28,28
gauge09=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!HUD ILS Switch, 108,160,28,28
gauge10=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!HUD Cage Switch, 108,200,28,28
gauge11=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!HUD Power Switch, 78,222,37,74
gauge12=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!GUN_ARM_Switch, 32,62,41,73
gauge13=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!GUN_AA_Switch, 21,15,46,22
gauge14=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!GUN_RATE_Switch,110,20,28,28
gauge15=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!GUN_AMMO_Switch,110,63,28,28
gauge16=Avionics\HUD\HUD_Panel!GUN_FNNL_Switch,110,106,28,28


//--------------------------------------------------------

Obviously, the two XX entries must be the same numbers.
Like [Window01] and Window01=HUD Controls for example.

Next, you need the VC panel entries, thus:

gaugeXX=Avionics\HUD!FA18_HUD_VC_R, 585, 505, 400, 471
gaugeYY=Avionics\HUD!FA18_HUD_Init // This is the HUD initialization, can be edited manually.

Obviously, you will need the correct folder name in the actual gaugeXX lines. Easiest is to place the folder Avionics\HUD in the plane's Panel folder, or they may be placed in the sim's Gauges folder, whichever you prefer.

Naturally, all the necessary files need to be included in the Avionics\HUD and the Avionics\HUD_Panel folders.

Hope this helps a little...

As ever, Phantom tweak,

You are the Master of Change.

Bloody nice one -as we say over the pond.
