PTA v2.66 now available

Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I recently just made v2.66 of PTA available which fixes the urban night lighting tweak error.

Please note: v2.66 is ONLY compatible with Prepar3D v4.5, use v2.65 for Prepar3D v4.4

You can find the download (and all previous versions) via your order page on the SimTweaks website. 

I will have some pretty major news regarding PTA & it's future in the coming weeks. P3D v4.5 brings a wealth of new things for us to utilize, that mixed with hiring a developer from the games industry that understands shader technology, let's just say that the future is very bright for PTA 🙂

Thanks,

Matt.

Matt, the filename on Simtweaks is PTA_for_v3.zip ... <??>. I've just downloaded it, but haven't tried installing it yet.

Adam, that's for the "free downloads"

You need to re-download your order file - click on the "view" next to your order id.

Got the 2.66 installed and used your 263_01 preset - had to turn down the brightness a bit - waiting for your updated preset.

Yeah just view the actual order as @rgerdes said. 

You'll find the older versions listed there as well now too.

Thank you for all the work!  Are you saying we can install your 4.4 file into 4.5 and 2.66 and all works ok?

Thank you,

-Paul  


Have a Wonderful Day

Excellent! Thanks Matt for your continued support. I would not even think of upgrading to P3D v4.5 without your PTA tool.

Thanks Gerard for your awesome presets.


A pilot is always learning and I LOVE to learn.

Thanks,

Matt.

please make tweaking possible via sliders and dynamically (live changing in P3D) with your next major version instead of  the current decimal values and start/end simulator to test results.

good luck

How are you going to use expressions with sliders only ... ? 

Expressions are dynamical tweaks already and can be used in PTA for several years already.

My All Months preset sets include lots of expressions : altitude, weather, time of day, month of the year, etc.

That some weather program developers talk about it now does not mean it wasn’t present already .... 😀
