Ok, mistake on there part but logic would have told you to down load both files seeing they were name cont1.cab and cont2.cab. Plus it's been well spelled out here in the forums.

October 11, 20178 yr Yeah, that’s what I thought as well. On the P3D’s forums there’s also a post that explains the update process and there they do mention the second file. Former MSFS Alpha Tester, current member of the MSFS Stream Team.
October 11, 20178 yr Everything good on my end with 4.1. Reinstalled client, content, and scenery one at a time by uninstalling and installing. Tested the NG, 744, and 777. All smooth. Looking forward to rain effects on the windscreen one day. Bob Donovan - KBOS
October 11, 20178 yr Hi, done a full reinstall on the sim to 4.1 and now all PMDG aircraft (747, 737, 777) wont install as it says my p3d is out of date and needs updating?? Tried a search but couldnt find anything relevant - any help would be greatly appreciated. Lew

October 11, 20178 yr I have also installed 4.1. 737/747/777 seem to work OK. Some issues with the DC6: The AFE does not work (as already mentioned in this thread) and P3D crashed on exit when the flight is loaded from a saved scenario.
October 12, 20178 yr Hi Folks, No problem here on the update, at least with the 737, seems to be an increase in frame rates. Installed only the client. . Haven't tried the 777, or the 747 yet. Read the directions, and always turn off your anti-virus, and UAC, before installing. Jerry Friz “The Wright Brothers created the single greatest cultural force since the invention of writing.

When loading from saved flights (not only PMDG) some or all windows normally opened with the Shift + N keys do not open (and with the DC6 they will not open from the SHIFT + 2 control panel icons either if you get that window up). I have found that if this happens, if I reload the aircraft (Main menu Vehicle/Select and chose the same DC6 model/livery) it re-initializes the plane and all the Shift + N windows. I then save the scenario again (overwrite my original saved situation), and good to go next time. Either that or you will have to recreate the scenario form scratch at the opening screen and then save over your original saved flight. As I said this applies not only to PMDG saved flights but I get the same problem with many other planes, and I use the same fix. Rob Robin Harris
October 12, 20178 yr Rob, I agree that the problem lies in some incompatibilities of 4.1 with scenarios saved under 4 but reloading the aircraft did not solve my problem (which, in my case, was that only the AFE was not working (the other windows (payload etc...) were opening and working normally), The problem disappears when the DC6 is loaded from the opening screen or when it is used in a scenario prepared and saved under 4.1. I did not see any problem with the other aircraft (PMDG and P3D native) but, on the other hand, they do not use the windows system of the DC6. Paul

October 13, 20178 yr I updated to v4.1 a few days ago then I lost steering on all my planes. I updated EZCA yesterday to the latest beta which seemed to be causing some issues. I updated my PMDG 737 and A2A aircraft yesterday. I have steering on all my planes now except for PMDG 737. Is anyone else having this issue still? If not can someone point me in the direction to fix this problem. thanks. Colin

But I highly doubt it since the PMDG 737 is the only plane with the problem. Zack Brown
