    luckydog replied to a thread Addit!pro in Prepar3D
    I've been using Additpro since it first came out years ago for 2004. I had to stop when I switched to P3D. I know it's not that hard to do add-ons manually, but I've gotten lazy and easily confused in my old age. Last year when Mr. Stearns asked me if I wanted to up-grade my FSX Additpro, I suggested he make one for P3D. He said he'd look into it. I'm glad he did.

    You have to modify the aircraft config. Something like the below lines which I use in my VS TBF. Sometimes you have to fiddle with the numbers to get it to work right. Just add this to your config. to get you started. launch_bar_pivot = 5.41,0.00,-2.0 launch_bar_lug = 10.083333,0.00,-7.50

    Hello Craig
    I don't have the Vertigo P-36 but I could download the paint kit from their website and give it a go if it's not too complicated. The ones for their Panther and Avenger were pretty simple one sheet jobs and easy to work with. Give me a few days and I will see what I can do.

    Grady.
    wanted to ask......Would you have the Vertigo studios P-36?
    I so would you consider doing a new paint for it for me.....
    I own one of these planes, sadly she is grounded at the moment, with electrical problems.....
    I am planning on doing a complete change of her paint....From a painted aircraft to a polished stainless, with the engine cowling done in a light blue, about the same shade as the swedish flag, yellow wing tips and rudder tip, and bareing the markings of the swedish airforce.... It would be nice to have a version of the finished plane for my FSX....
    I have the Vertigo plane, a gift from my daughter, after acquiring the P-36 we now have.
