A question if I may.  Maybe it is dealt with somewhere, but I can't find it.

Do I have to completely uninstall all my PMDG installations before reinstalling with the new updates?  Repair does not seem to work.  Gives an error:

"Feature Transfer Error

Feature FSX Version: Original Microsoft Product

Component: Ops Center

File <FOLDER_SIM2>\

Error: The filename,directory name or volume label is incorrect"

Yes you must uninstall fully then reinstall. Never update via repair

Love the "NGX Geek Out Facts" text doc that is included in the 'PMDG_737_8900_P3D.ZIP' file.  I'm guessing its been there since the beginning?...not sure how I missed it until now! 

Great job with the conversion guys.....and to quote Bobby R....I'm gonna..."Touch wood, fingers crossed, shake lucky rabbit foot..."....that the J41 makes its way to P3D.  Keep up the amazing work!  You guys are the best.

Hello and thanks for updates. Is it normal "unable to check for latest version" in OC for 600-700 expansion? Bar appears in grey instead of green and message when checking version.

Regards.

Probably the OC or server has not been updated yet.

I think I got lost in the shuffle.  Was the 777-300ER ever made compatible with P3D v4?

Oh yearh... 'The Hold Bug'

They could make a Hollywood-blockbuster out of that one... 

Really funny arcade gamers...

Yes, after LM released their HF.

There are new installers coming though so I would suggest to wait for them :)

Please read this from RSR on page 1. I also recieved notification from the OC to update. I am getting too old for this lol

 

 

"This round of updates does a few things to all three product lines:

RAAS for P3D v4 has been added to the 777 and 747-400.  (I erroneously mentioned this being added to the NGX last week- but it is not planned to be added to the NGX, which has never had the RAAS hook-in...)

P3D Captain PFD pop-up CTD protection has been added to all three product lines.  Since we have been unsuccessful in our efforts to convince Lockheed Martin to evaluate this CTD seriously, we have locked out the ability to use the CA's PFD as a pop-up display, but we included an option in the PMDG Options menu within the FMS that allows the user to Opt-In to having this popup work.  (NOTE:  This particular CTD, for those who do not know, affects a small percentage of users who use the CA PFD as a popup, but the CTD doesn't happen until you have been flying somewhere between 3-8 hours of actual elapsed time.  This CTD began to appear in P3D v3.1 after Lockheed Martin pushed that update- and no root cause has been found after literally thousands of hours of tests internally at PMDG- so we took this step in order to minimize the number of customers affected by it without realizing the cause...)

Some other various cleanup items across all three product lines, along with some efficiencies."
