Hehe :)You were quicker than me :)Some important "brief" notes for all before you install....http://www.msmvps.org/thenakedmvp/

Thanks for the link, Kurt. And to Nick for the notes posted on your site.ANYBODY WHO FAILS TO READ AND FOLLOW THE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS IS EITHER A FOOL OR OF LIMITED INTELLIGENCE!!! READ THE DOCS BEFORE DOWNLOADING AND INSTALLING! IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND THE UPDATE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS READ THEM UNTIL YOU DO! IF YOU STILL DON'T UNDERSTAND THEN SEEK ASSISTANCE BEFORE INSTALLING!Let's try to make this as painless as possible for the community and the devs.Have fun,Greg

This DL server is getting SLAMMED - I'm currently only getting 1.2k/sec. If anyone that managed to get the file can mirror this and post the link, that'd be great!

I'm getting 130 kps right now, but I'm going to wait on the install too see what scenery problems pop up for others first. :)Jim

Hello All,Well, I've read the download instructions, and in truth, I think, although I have downloaded the patch, I will wait until I hear from many simmers before I install it. It sounds like a great unit, but there ARE a few things I will loose in installing it, or a great deal of work perhaps will have to be done.Saying that does not undermine the patch itself, I will just have to make a decision if I want to install it on MY machine. I have tons of add on aircraft, scenery, mesh, AC ASky and such and will have to see the ultimate results on others machines before I undertake such a large job. However, IF, this patch is the ulitmate cure all, (I have to admit my machine runs the sim VERY well and I am for the most part very pleased with its performance) then I guess I will have to bite the bullett and reinstall most of whatever does not work after installation. The docs are very specific on what must be done and it looks like the FS team has done their homework to make it as painless as possible.Can't wait to hear from installed versions with tons of addons.Best of luck and crossing my fingers for all of you,Clay

Same here...gonna hold off and wait till the dust settles on what works, what doesn't 3rd party-wise.

"If you have modified any of the original FS files, the installer will fail."Oh boy...

I'm with you Clay. Just the loss of the no-CD capability is enough to make me wait a while.Doug

LOL..everyone wants the patch...no one wants to install it!

Yes how many really needs it, im not spending the weekend reinstalling everything for a few bridges, i have no other probs with fs9, so i dont se any reason for me to install itOHN

I installed and ran the patch sucessfully... my problem is needing an update from Active Camera. :S Hopefully that will come soon. (BTW: I did notice a slight preformance improvement.) Mesh is a bit better too.http://www.darkstarorder.com/SigFinal.jpgKen Weik [link:maam.org|MAAM-SIM][link:library.avsim.net/search.php?CatID=root&SearchTerm=kenneth+weik&Sort=Added&ScanMode=0&Go=Change+View]My AFCADs
