There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.
If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.
Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

If you just change the install directory it should install the files OK but it wont update the dll.xml so you need to do that manually.
I didn't bother install to P3D at all. I just copied the files across from FSX and edited the dll.xml and it works like a charm.

Would you mind posting how you edited you dll.xml file? Thanks, Pete

Right click it and open with notepad, copy the entries from your FSX one.
There's two entries one for "A2A_Feel.dll" and one for "AccuFeelMenu.dll"
The P3D one is in "C:\Users\{YOUR NAME}\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D"
and the FSX one is in "C:\Users\{YOUR NAME}\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\FSX"
If you copy the files over manually you will need the "Prepar3D\A2A\Feel" folder
and "A2A_Feel.dll" and "AccuFeelMenu.dll" in the "Prepar3D\Modules" folder.
If you don't have a Modules folder you can make one yourself.

Well, I must have done it correctly because it works. Love it! NC
"It", is the DLL.XML file.
Accu-Feel for Prepar3D
works just fine in P3D....Used the installer to install to P3D ...Manually updated the P3D dll.xml with the following copied from FSX:
The dll.xml file is in your (Windows 7) appdata-roaming-lockheed martin-prepar3d folder and add the following lines:
NOTE:(Right-click, open-with, Notepad.)
Look for the last entry on the bottom where it says </Launch.Addon>, then copy and paste the information (example in bold)
<Launch.Addon>
<Name>A2A Feel</Name>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<Path>Modules\A2A_Feel.dll</Path>
<DllStartName>module_init</DllStartName>
<DllStopName>module_deinit</DllStopName>
</Launch.Addon>
<Launch.Addon>
<Name>AccuFeelMenu</Name>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<ManualLoad>False</ManualLoad>
<Path>Modules\AccuFeelMenu.dll</Path>
</Launch.Addon>
P.S.
Make sure that the information you paste in, is above the line </SimBase.Document>
That's it. Save and exit.
Once P3D is running, look under the "Add-ons" tab for AccuFeel
Here is a copy of my Prepar3D DLL.XML so you have visual reference of how it should actually look like when you add the needed info.
?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>
<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">
<Descr>Launch</Descr>
<Filename>dll.xml</Filename>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>

<Path>Modules\FSUIPC4.dll</Path>

Yep, that's what I did, and yes it works
Hardest thing about the process (for me at least) was locating the .dll files. Not something I normally do. But it does work, and so cool!

Sorry NC, I tried to keep it simple, glad you got there in the end.

Sorry about my rant.....
apparently, I've become a real *** since my triple cabbage last year.
Reckon its the old "mortality-slap-upside-the-face" thing......
I appreciate the attempts at simplification, but it still looks like quantum physics to me.
.....maybe they'll eventually come out with a P3D installer.
