Any benefits to the newest P3D V2.5.12945 ?

[peppy197 165]

Is this worth going through all the fuss of a reinstall?

[Arthur42417 193]

yes

[fakeflyer737 991]

there is a new patch?

[Nyxx 6,993]

no

[peppy197 165]

oh, meaning there is not a new patch (it is the old one) and I am late news, or there is no merit in reinstalling just for it?

[Jim Young 2,356]

I would seriously consider it.  There are many bug fixes - http://www.prepar3d.com/latest-news/

I got the same thing last time I tried logging on a couple of days ago.

Phew! There was me thinking, how odd I can access the Avsim page, yet cannot access the LM page. I thought maybe I had suffered some kind of Trojan attack, so ran MAB. That gave me a clear slate and my AV is bang up-to-date.

 

Thank heavens it wasn't just me.

 

EDIT: Just been back there and all seems well as I'm just downloading that Update.

Keep away from this Update!

 

I've just installed it and have lost all my Add-on aircraft such the PMDG, Just Flight, Aerosoft, etc and sceneries. Wish I had never bothered now.

 

All I am left with is the bog standard default aircraft. Nice one, LM !!!!!

That is somewhat odd.  I did not experience that when I installed the update a few weeks ago.  Was it the Hotfix that you applied?

Uh, whenever you install P3D, you have to reinstall all of your addons.

But this was supposed to be an Update, Jim, not a complete uninstall/reinstall. I thought it just updated the existing version.

I just went to my account and downloaded the version that is the Topic Title in this thread. Did not see a Hotfix, et al.

The hotfix is available via this forum post only.

Your account page will have only the latest full install.
