Tons of discounted add-ons.

 

Be aware that some titles (e.g. the Feelthere ERJs or the Aerosoft A320 family) are available in bundles at even more discount. Check the add-on's page to see if such offers exist.

Bought the Feelthere ERJ 135/145 Bundle.

- The engine sound on the 135LR and 145XR DLC will not work because the sound.cfg points to the 145LR, which is not present in the same folder as it is a separate DLC. So you have to buy the bundle and then edit the sound.cfg if you want any engine sounds at all on these birds
- Dovetail forgot to pack the light effects. An aircraft.cfg edit is needed to point to the default lights as a workaround.
- There is only one livery, so additional liveries will have to be downloaded from the Feelthere site (http://feelthere.com/download)
- The aircraft configurator needs to be installed with some extra effort from Library\Tools in Steam.The alternative is manually editing the erj.ini in DLC\379567\FeelThere\Erj or DLC\379566\SimObjects\Airplanes\FeelThere ERJ145LR v2

I am mildly angry, to say the least.

With some work, the ERJ is now almost on the same level as the versions from other retailers (minus weather radar and the original effects).

The sound set bit was a false alert. When both the 135LR/145XR and the 145LR are installed, the engine sound on the former works just fine.
