What I'm confused about the "updating" process, is that the change log shows "updates" to Client, Scenery & Content - So shouldn't you be updating the whole thing each time anyways?

 

Is there a difference between individually removing & re-installing those 3 components vs a "full" uninstall/reinstall.

 

 

My main concern is not having the OrbX scenery all needing a complete reinstall (I'd rather have wisdom teeth pulled I think)

 

 

 

 

@Rob:  Nice video!  

 

Although I'd turn off those reflections myself.

Surprise! Pete Dowson is not on holiday. :wink:

 

ASN, the Flight1 GTN 750, FSUIPC and ORBX Object Flow may all need updates. But nothing has been posted yet officially on any of those 3rd party official message boards.

 

EDIT:

 

The GTN units definitely do not work in 3.2:

Just purchased P3DV3 last week, I think I will wait on the update process. Has any have success moving the Q400 outside of the main P3D root? I am guessing you first un-install the aircraft  then re-install to a different location outside of the the P3D root followed by updating P3D config files to point to this new location (the new Q400 directory)

It's a music to the ears of UTXv2 version.

Does that mean lights also ?

Changelog is pretty extensive. Interesting rendering upgrades too.

 

I just cant help to think how frustrated devs are with these kinds of updates. Some are still working on 3.1 installers. Now 3.2 is here. You would think these installers would just work with anything 3.x.x

Hmm I used the update just the client method and now cant start p3d, I get the following message.. any ideas?

Thank you Nuno

 

Hi Poppet,

 

While you are online and and off topic..is there anyway you can make your excellent tutorials on installing EZDok in P3Dv31 and addons outside of P3D core files into pdf files for download, so that they can be printed and followed while implementing the contents.

 

Thanks

You can adjust the reflective nature of the Triton ocean via WaterConstantsv3.xml settings (I believe some 3rd party products already do adjust this file).

 

 

Now 3.2 is here. You would think these installers would just work with anything 3.x.x

 

The installers do work with any V3.x ... not sure what you mean?  Some of the products (ASN, ObjectFlow, GTN, FSUIPC, etc) that link directly to P3D by using a process outside of the SDK will need to re-locate their offsets since the core EXE/DLLs get updated whenever LM make a build ... LM can't make changes/fixes without building new core EXE/DLLs.  

 

But I'm not aware of any V3.x installers that don't work with V3.0, V3.1, V3.2?

 

Cheers, Rob.

Hmmmm

I appreciate the frequency of P3D updates,

however I'm less happy that it requires everytime a reinstall 

I was just halfway installing V3.1... It takes days/weeks completely installing all add-ons  :Whew:

Sincerely hope they will provide incremental installers in the future.

Hi Rich, the .cfg file is still set at 6.5, try changing  the value.

edit it would be nice to know what values we can use.

Further, some of these 3rd party developers are participants in the closed beta program. But just because their addon worked in the latest beta build doesn't necessarily mean that they will release an update without further testing it with the release version of 3.2.

It does NOT require a reinstall. Did you really read the release notes? 

 

Kind regards, Michael
