mutley 4,498 Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Hi Jim, nice to see you back. Are there any problems with porting the Duke to V4? I heard the sound dll doesn't work but the gauges were ok because they use xml? Cheers buddy. Joe Link to post Share on other sites
UKJim 502 Posted June 23, 2017 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 I just installed it nothing special and everything works as far as I can see. Only thing I noticed was the config app wouldn't save my settings as it couldn't find an xml or something. Actually performs really well. I am well and truly a p3d v4 convert it is now in a league of it's own. Worth every penny! 2 Link to post Share on other sites
wain 879 Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Hi Jim, long time no hear, great shots, glad to hear the Duke works, I will be using that if I make the step up to v4..... 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Captain Coffee 2,030 Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Good to see ya back Jim. Been seeing your YouTube channel occasionally, but honestly, they are tooo long to more than skip through them. Hope you will share your impressions and views of V4 here occasionally...I suspect I too will be heading for it sooner than later. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
phil white 274 Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Great shots mate. I am considering getting V4 but will wait until all my v3 add ons are all fully compatible first. Link to post Share on other sites

Or do you use some other tool and do something special? Depends on the installer Jim, some product installer don't offer to browse for an installation directory, others cannot update the dll.xml or exe.xml file if needed so it has to be done manually. If the product uses dll's compiled in 32 bit, they will more than likely cause problems in V4. However, if it does install then yippee!! 1 Link to post Share on other sites

brett 2,316 Posted June 23, 2017 Report Share Posted June 23, 2017 Hi Jim, long time no see. Nice shots, looks like the sim is set up just right. I did read something from a guy they call the "Captain" saying that porting FSX addons into PDv4 could cause instability in the sim. Not sure how true it is but it makes sense to use the v4 SDK tools to recompile certain things. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
