F-35 Lightning II version 3.0 for Prepar3D v2.5

Just to clarify an OS limit is as below for the path+filename length if this helps?
All components together including null terminator
D:\somefolder\somesubfolder\somefile.extension{nul}		 260Limit imposed by Windows OS.
 
Hi Chris,

I just discovered this potential issue myself, browsing the internet.
Although it appears to be not an MS-Windows version restriction, but related to the used file system format (ie. FAT / FAT32 vs NTFS).

Don't know yet how Hans' external disk drive is formatted (that seems to be what's unique in his PC setup).

Although I can't imagine that this really is the problem ....
I don't know exactly how Windows composes the complete pathname on its internal API, but this 260-character limit sounds unlikely to be the culprit in this case.

Thanks anyway ....

In case you do not follow my facebook page or my blog - here are two preview pircture of the new version 3.0 of my F-35 project.

This version is specifically built for Prepa3D + Tacpack. Main features at the moment are:
- An improved visual model (F-35B only at the moment... but the F-35A is being worked on) with more 3D details and better textures
- Improvements to the cockpit fuctionality (including ASR mode and TFLIR / DAS ....although they will not be completely independent due to memory restrictions)
- Improvements to the VC graphics and functionalities
- Improvements to the flight model according to the latest publicly available information

I realize this is a little bit of an old thread, but how does this payware version compare to your version that comes with P3D 3.2? I am wondering if I need to buy this beast if it has other functionality?

Eric.
 
Sorry for the late reply - the "stock" P3Dv3 Lightning II is basically a non-Tacpack, -A version only, work-in-progress version of the new package - I gave it to LM as I thought it was already much better than the previos model.

If you are a Tacpack user, the payware "full" version features a much better Tacpack intergration (including TFLIR, DAS and other stuff) along with the -B and -C models.

If you are not using Tacpack, apart from some minor visual refinements, the only big thing would be the new -B and -C models - which look much better than the old freeware version IMHO.
