Yes, i read the install notes. And i cant believe that it's so easy. I have only to install the client and all the updates are included down to the scenery, the sdk and the content?

Wow. Thats nice! :))

It's been a few years I did not check a flightsim forum, I forgot about that whole fun part.

Wait, let me check if people still wine about PMDG pricing in 2016. :rofl:

 

 


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).
 

 

Very cool - Thx for sharing that..

So please no flaming, this is an honest question I'm confused about after reading the release notes.

 

Which of these do I need if I just want to update?

The release notes show Content, Scenery & Client updates....

So just those 3 installers?  Any of the other files?

 

Thank you

I de-installed and re-installed client and contents from 3.0 to 3.1. No issues (except I had to input the credentials again). LM managed indeed to streamline updates in a very clever way, I'd say. I still recall the hassle of having to reinstall all scenery in the 2.x series numerous times.

 

Kind regards, Michael

The release note states "The CLIENT is REQUIRED, the others are OPTIONAL"

Download the client, uninstall the OLD CLIENT ONLY - DO NOT UNINSTALL ALL OF PREPAR3D! - then reinstall the client.

 

Follow the dowload/install instructions re the additional %appdata% folders. Total time should be minutes

 

That's all.

@irrics

 

That would be the installScenery.msi - but it is optional.

I doubt that there is anything in v3.2 to persuade me to upgrade. No offense intended, but those waves do not look particularly convincing to me. They look very similar to the old shoreline waves in FSX.

Ok, but does what your saying mean that we would only be getting updates shown in the release notes under "Prepar3d Client" updates?

I have a fairly fast connection and it is telling me 4 hours for the download. 

you're very unlucky, i had dl the full version less than 2 minutes :)

I'm hoping someone can confirm that there's a performance boost of some kind as mentioned in the notes.

Is the Night environment issue fixed?

 

NE area  takes long time to load... there is some  memory issue with NE...also NE has big hickups.. Pause

I read there was a bug with 3.1 (im still on 3.0) that would cause shimmering when using dynamic reflections. Any idea if they fixed that? I read through the change log and didnt see it mentioned.
