DX10 Fixer Update Confusion

Featured Replies

From reading the pinned topic "DX10 Scenery Fixer Known Problems" I see that new versions have or are being released.  But beyond this, there is nothing specifically mentioned on:

  • how one obtains an update
  • how one goes about applying an update
  • how purchasers will (or can) be notified on the availability of updates

Sorry about not being able to read between the lines in the mentioned topic (and not dredging through all the other topics), but I'd like to know "the absolute truth" for the above bullet-ed items.  Thanks for reading :smile:

SteveFSX has announced a DX10 fixer update end of this week. I strongly hope, that a detailed update procedure will be included there.

2: Open your current version of the "Fixer" and select "uninstall libraries"

 

3: Go to Windows Control Panel and "Programs & Features" and select DX10 Fixer and uninstall

 

3a: Reboot computer

 

4: Select the latest version you just downloaded and "Run as Admin"

 

5:Reboot Computer

 

6: Right click the Fixer icon that should be residing on your desktop, and select advanced, tick the box "Run as Admin"

 

7: Reinstall the libraries in the fixer and check your other options.

 

8: Run FSX and make sure all is good.

 

The latest build #19 included a fix for the Dawn & Dusk issue

Thanks for the guide.  I was on the verge of trying something along these same lines but was hesitant to do so since on my part it was nearly pure guess and I didn't want to mess things up.

Excellent!  I'm eagerly awaiting this update package.

 

BTW, Your DX10 Fixer is BRILLIANT!  I've never seen FSX look and perform so well: the "unofficial official FSX SP3" IMO.

I'm ready to purchase the Fixer but just wondering if the 'update' referred to in these posts is the one that is available in the FlightSim Store?

Thanks....
