  • Special Server Maintenance

    Just when you think you have everything running some what better...

    You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.

    1. November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
    2. November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
    3. November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
    4. November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.

    If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.

    To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.

    Thank you for your support.

I downloaded the PC-21 and the Texan Driver for my P3D V4.5. The PC21 loaded fine but has anyone added Texan Driver successfully for 4.5?

Yes, but you can't use the "setup.bat" to install it. That file is hard coded for P3D v2.
The installer only mentions P3D v2.5 so that should give you an idea of the age of this bird.
That said, it works fine in P3D v4.5 and looks great to boot.

I install addons for P3D v4 into the "\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons" folder.
1) First create a new folder name "Iris Texan Driver" under "\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons".
2) Then run the "core-files.exe". This is the actual installer.
3) Select P3D v2.5 and then when prompted for location to install point to the folder you created.
4) Let the installer do the rest.
5) You'll need to make an add-on.xml file so P3D will recognize it.
That's it.

If you don't install remotely but instead just throw everything into the main P3Dv4.5 location skip step 1 and point at the main P3D v4.5 location for step 3.

The PC-21 is more recent and aware of P3D v4.5 and it also installs into "\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons" by default.
