I've got the CS download version installed and working in P3d. I installed it directly, rather than copying across. There was a conflict with something I seem to remember, but I'll have to go back and try and find out what it was. *-)

I had the download version of CS C-130 installed into P2DV2.2 without any problems - I used the Estonia migrator tool to do the installation, and I installed the CS Boeings 707 and 727 in the same way. I think Dave G is right - you can't just copy it across from FSX - it has to be installed into P3DV2 properly. If you dont have the migrator tool, I believe the standard method is to put a dummy FSX.cfg on the main P3D directory, and point the CS installer at it - Dave can probably clarify that.

A little P3DV2.2 screenie to encourage your efforts ;)

I didn't use a migration tool, but I do have a dummy FSX.exe in the P3d folder. I also used the Flight1 registry tool to point the FSX entry in the registry to that.
The issue I mentioned earlier wasn't a P3d one, but related to Accufeel, but that doesn't seem to be a problem any more.

Ah yes, my mistake, FSX.exe not FSX.cfg. Thanks Dave. :)
