Lockheed Martin has released a second patch, n° 2.5.12944.0 for Prepar3D v2.5.

This second patch fixes four problems:

• sun glare with HDR,
• shadow issue with wave and bathymetry,
• SimDirector gamepad,
• dull night lights in VC

Here the links for all versions:

Version Academic - Professionnal:

 

REMOVED LINKS - Rob.

 

Take care to backup old files before apply the patch ... in case you want to restore the last version :rolleyes:

Great stuff, merci beaucoup for the headsup Didier! :smile:

 

Now we just have to wait for the next ASN beta, the update broke the "as_connect" module. No big concern though, the HiFi developers have been quick to respond to the recent updates.

 

(By the way, nice to see I'm not the only one still using the great Cougar ...).

Furthermore we need to wait for new updates of the Flight1 GTN and the FSDT AddOn Manager.

Thanks for the heads up, Glad to see they've fixed that horrible sun 'glare'

 

The Hotfix is now in my downloads folder and as an ASN/GTN and GSX user, that's where it's staying for now!

Locked and loaded

 

Is this even on their web site yet lol. Thanks

Do I get the feeling you don't entirely trust the p3d hotfix files?

 

Downloaded and saved until someone confirms it doesn't break anything...

Can someone post a pic of  the sun glare post patch? What exactly does this look like now.

What's with the Cloud download?

 

gb.

Where'd this come from - not mentioned on LM site yet - and earlier was said it was there then pulled? Why should it break GTN and/or FSDT again - tho' can understand a certain nervousness!  :mellow:   (but I didn't have a problem with the first hotpatch . . .)

 

AND all the files in this hotpatch are 3 days old?

 

I'll wait till we hear from Rob!

Strange.. I'm running a virus scan on this one... 

It's bogus... 

 

Should have read OP name... lagaffe means goofy :(

It's certainly not bogus.

 

Beta maybe, but not bogus.

At the moment, check the LM P3D forum -it is not released, still in beta and links being removed.

 

As in if you install from an unofficial tip - it'll surely be on your own head - as said I'd wait for an official LM release and a Rob OK!

 

Edit : and as later replies show -  I'd wait for an official release and a Rob OK!  

the Prepar3D forum explains that is still a beta version which was put up by error and is now withdrawn.

Ok, calm down folks.

What I've tested so far 

 

Works:

FSUIPC 4.939

PMDG 777

CS 777

Orbx ObjectFlow.dll -- need to test this more (windsock, birds, flag animate), it was updated to 1.0.10.3

FSGRW v1.7 build #29

 

Does NOT work:

Virtuali Add-On Manager (installer v3.0.0.0) 

 

Cheers, Rob.

This is still Beta ... apparently there was some confusion on release.  There are some issues with this patch that I will report to LM.  For those that have the patch, I recommend you NOT install.

 

Cheers, Rob.
