Migrating to a new flight simulator has never been so easy!

From the early days of flight simulation, each new simulator has meant the need to replace almost all addons with new ones, often at a high cost, and in many cases no upgrades have been available at all.

FSX to Prepar3D Migration Tool is a revolutionary tool that allows you to install Flight Simulator X (FSX) addons to Prepar3D. Since there are very few differences between the two simulators, almost everything that functioned properly in FSX will function so in Prepar3D.

No manual editing is necessary, nor it is necessary to have FSX present on the computer. Just install the tool, follow its manual and install addons like you would install them to FSX. Everything from freeware Pipers to the most complex addons will appear in Prepar3D.

With Migration Tool, you will be able to enjoy the best of both worlds – excellent FSX addons in new and evolving Prepar3D flight simulator.

How does it work?

Migration Tool creates a virtual FSX installation, meaning that it will turn an empty folder of your choice into looking like FSX root folder, with all necessary configuration files present. Everything installed there - no matter if by hand or using installers - will appear in Prepar3D.

Virtual FSX installation has numerous work-arounds helping installers and utilities find necessary files. For example: using Migration Tool, owners of EZdok Camera Addon can even get their TrackIR running with Prepar3D.

To avoid conflicts with FSX, should you have it installed, there is a simple user interface to enable and disable virtual FSX with a single click. While it is disabled, FSX addon installers will place files into real FSX. While enabled, FSX addon installers will place files into Prepar3D.

Migration Tool has been tested with many popular sceneries, aircraft and utilities. As long as they don’t rely on dirty hacks and follow practices suggested by Microsoft and Lockheed Martin instead, they will work properly in Prepar3D.

    I love it when a product does exactly what the "brochure" says. It's like a Maverick missile: Fire and forget. I used this little gem to migrate tons of add-ons i purchased for FSX in the past years and i'm talking about very complex ones. No problem what so ever. Planes, scenerys, tools, you name it. The ONLY exception is the VRS SuperBug but it is something to do with VRS itself not this product (as stipulated on the VRS support forum).
Money well spent.

    Works very well - set it and forget. Haven't come across any issues and makes it simple to move across from FSX to Prepar3d. I got rid of FSX completely, so copying files and changing xml and cfg files isn't really an option, and would have always been a hassle. I've only come across a problem with the Airbus X but everything - from scenery to complex aircraft such as the PMDG 737 ngx and 747-400x seems to install without any intervention. I can recommend just for ease of use.
