I see P3Dv4.5 has been updated from Prepar3D v4.5 HF2 (4.5.13.32097) to version Prepar3D v4.5 (4.5.14.34698) with no change log.

Thanks for the list. I don't see anything as a must have. Was hoping to see autogen fix. Guess it's over to v5 down the road.

But if you use p3dv4 - you have to be careful with HF3 as certain addons require the version number.  Kudos to you for discovering it.  It is not like I will move back to p3dv4 as new baby v5 is in town.  Out with the old gf, in with new gf 😵

Do you have a link to the update/change list info -- I couldn't find it. Does LM describe this as HF3?

Thx,

Al

Is there a way to determine when HF3 was released? I couldn't find anything on the P3D site.

Thx,

It was released today but not announced. 

If it had been announced it would have halved the sales of V5

Yep, hotfix3 for 4.5:

@Wise87 should get credit even on FSElite for finding this.  He was first to point out the interesting news.

It is very interesting that LM is kinda supporting v4 right now or was this for commercial clients who are using v4 right now.  The fixes are very specific to operations (not really graphical)

Not something I need to have ....

 

me too, cannot find a single item which I can stick to my sim 

Does FSUIPC v5 (for P3Dv4.5) work with this 4.5.14.34698 ?

Good news!
GTN 750 and ChasePlane does NOT work with update 4.5.14.34698 🙃
