Thanks Ian! Will you also be fixing the orb like runway lights? They look too big.

so I'm thinking you maybe still have the old add-on.xml perhaps that wasn't uninstalled.
Your full add-on.xml (in the 'Prepar3D v4 Add-ons' folder) should look like this:
Code: Select all
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<SimBase.Document Type="AddOnXml" version="4,0" id="add-on">
<AddOn.Name>SunSkyJet - KDTW(BETA)</AddOn.Name>
<AddOn.Description>SunSkyJet - Detroit Metro Airport for Prepar3Dv4</AddOn.Description>
<AddOn.Component>
<Name>SunSkyJet - KDTW scenery</Name>
<Category>Scenery</Category>
<Path>D:\P3DV4\SunSkyJet\SunSkyJet - KDTW(BETA)\scenery</Path>
</AddOn.Component>
<AddOn.Component>
<Category>Texture</Category>
<Path>D:\P3DV4\SunSkyJet\SunSkyJet - KDTW(BETA)\texture</Path>
</AddOn.Component>
<AddOn.Component>
<Category>Effects</Category>
<Path>D:\P3DV4\SunSkyJet\SunSkyJet - KDTW(BETA)\effects</Path>
</AddOn.Component>
<AddOn.Component>s
<Category>Scripts</Category>
<Path>D:\P3DV4\SunSkyJet\SunSkyJet - KDTW(BETA)\DTW_scripts</Path>
</AddOn.Component>
<AddOn.Component>
<Category>Texture</Category>
<Path>D:\P3DV4\SunSkyJet\SunSkyJet - KDTW(BETA)\DTW_scripts\yexture</Path>
<Type>GLOBAL</Type>
</AddOn.Component>
</SimBase.Document>
Where the <path> tag will have the path to your install (replace 'D:\P3DV4' in this example)
It should look like this:

I recorded a video to further demonstrate some of the issues I'm seeing in P3D V5. They seem mostly seem to be elevation issues. Towards the end of the video, I changed the time to night to show the bright runway light "orbs."

I hope this helps! Happy to help assist troubleshooting in any way.

Not sure if this one was mentioned yet, but I didn't see it.
The "inner/short/front" jetway for A24 is over at the next gate (A20).

@ianj, have you been able to make any updates that fixes the elevation and light issues I'm receiving in P3D V5?
Looking forward to flying to KDTW again.

Chris

So I guess that's a no for P3D V5 compatibility? I'm pretty disappointed because the scenery is great in older P3D versions.

Hey everyone,
I haven't gotten my link to download DTW beta if anyone knows what I can do to get that then that would be great.
