April 25, 20215 yr I think Simmarket have gotten sloppy with their installers as I recently purchased the updated LFPG and it said the installer was V1.0.0 when it had indeed been updated. i do think Simmarket owe people to get this stuff right as it took a number of support requests to T2G to establish that it was indeed the updated version.

April 25, 20215 yr I've got an email from Simmarket to say the update is available, but when I log in to my account I can only see the original installer. Usually updates are shown as separate files?

April 25, 20215 yr I see no update at the bottom where they usually are in my Simmarket account. Eric
April 25, 20215 yr For Simmarket just download the original installer again. Once downloaded if I go into the properties it shows version number 2.0. Nick Running

Usually updates are shown as separate files? FSDG does not provide seperate updates. It's always been an updated version of the original installer. Download it and compare the file sizes: you can see the new one is over 200MB bigger.

April 26, 20215 yr Uninstalled and installed the new version. Did a quick flight around Table Mountain and did an ILS approach on 01. Looks great and the default control tower is now gone. Thanks FSDG Johan Pienaar

FACT V2.0 was released on April 22nd.😉 They also announced an MSFS version is planned to come. https://www.facebook.com/flightsimdevelopmentgroup/ Cheers, Thanks Mark. I couldn’t find any mention of a v2 on either of your links, but i trust you that it’s actually a thing! I’ll check out simmarket again and see if there’s any change. I only bought this (v1) a few weeks ago, so i’m late to the FACT party. 🙂 Oz Sim Rig: MSI RTX3090 Suprim, an old, partly-melted Intel 9900K @ 5GHz+, Honeycomb Alpha, Thrustmaster TPR Rudder, Warthog HOTAS, Reverb G2, Prosim 737 cockpit.

April 27, 20215 yr Successfully downloaded the new version from Simmarket. Can't see obvious differences but runs well at a good FPS. Only problem is LOTS of shimmering on the buildings (moiré pattern on face of main terminal) and the dreaded moving white ascending lines on some other in the distance. The apron and taxi-ways are all steady. Intel i7 6700K @4.3. 32gb Gskill 3200 RAM. Z170x Gigabyte m/b. 28" LG HD monitor. Win 10 Home. 500g Samsung 960 as Windows home. 1 Gb Mushkin SSD for P3D.
