Ezdok in Prepar3D

This was one tool I loved in FSX, but since shifting to Prepar3D I've had to give it up. However I did stumble on a video showing how easy it is to install in Prepar3D using the beta version, and it really is! No fiddly bits, just drag the beta files into the EZCA folder, and away you go, with all the benefits of EZdok.
All the info you need is here.

Looking forward to making the next Godzone video using custom camera views...

Frooglesim just posted a video on using ezdok in p3d that might be useful. I've not watched it not having p3d, but thought I'd mention it.

I do recall from my FSX installation of ezdok that it's VERY picky about how you update the files.

Yes, having EZdok is a bit like having a butler -- very useful, but you do need to give up control of a lot of things, like what to wear, and how you set up your controllers...

Yes I have the Beta working ok in P3D...well sort of. Some times it does odd things.
My biggest headache is the zoom on the mouse wheel. Sometimes it works as it should and other times it doesn't and it can be a pain when trying to manipulate MCP knobs with the mouse wheel.
I can get the occasional pan lock up after a period of time. Hopefully they will nail these down for the final release.
