Thanks BlackBird @Slayer68 this asnswers my question on the BlackBird support forum I posted after attempting to purchase in the new year start.

Would these be the very latest version download links to those updated with v5 installers ?

Or is is going to be required to register to the Support Forum to find and download a v5 installer ?

Cheers

Should be the latest, there are some other downloads in old forum posts too. May have to do some digging.

Thanks for the share of this awesome software!! I do have two quick questions if that is ok?

 

1. What will be the fate of the Beale AFB scenery. I see that is not posted and not for sale anymore?

 

2. When I try to open the MD530F settings in the MVAMS program I keep getting an error (link to screenshot) MVAMS-ERROR hosted at ImgBB — ImgBB (ibb.co) I have tried telling the installer to do a repair install (running as admin and antivirus off) I have also tried to uninstall and reinstall. Any ideas as to why this may be happening or what I can do to fix it? 

 

Thanks!

Tried to install the MD530F. Used the key on the picture. Program accepts the key to install the helicopter. BUT: when I go to run the helicopter, the screen goes black and then tells me that the product key is invalid. Then nothing happens. Tried on P3DV4.5.11. Any suggestions? Thanks.

@Slayer68 I too just tired to load the MD530F in P3d and it gave me a message to the effect of product Key error simulator will now close; and closed P3d on me entirely... It would appear there are a couple of issues with the release / installer... Any ideas? Thanks!

I downloaded the Twin Comanche , it says its for FSX, P3D V2 and up but the installer only shows P3D V4 and V5 and it doesnt show up in my P3D V2 , what am i doing wrong?

taking  a  stab at this   probably  due  it  says  for v4  or  v5  where  you  only  got v2  ?

What a generous offer this is. I have always wondered what the Milviz Boeing 737-200C would be like, so now is the time to find out!

Same problem with invalid product key on the MD530. If anyone has any sway with Milviz/Blackbird can you ask them to please check the product key. Other downloads seem OK so far. I was hoping that with the MD530 I could dump my other helicopters unless the 407 is pretty good.

I successully installed myself and it flys just nicely, key worked fine.

The key is placed in the sim root in Milviz\MVMD530.ini along with other items that have a key.

I actually installed outside the sim root and used a junction point to link back to the sim root then manually copied the Milviz folder and contents to the sim root.

Cheers

And just to show it all installed fine 🙂

Thanks!

The projects that we worked on with other companies such as Nemmeth etc can't be offered as free because another party has interest in them. Same applies to KBAB. You'll have to check the archive on the MVAMS problem.

Make sure you have no spaces before or after the key or it will fail. As with everything P3D you may have the best results of running the installer, sim and MVAMS as an admin. Maybe the key couldn't be written to the .ini file.

Thanks I actually figured out the key issue... For some reason it did not put the key= entry in the MVMD530.ini file... Once did some poking around I was able to fix it. I will look at the other issue on the forums.

You may have to search the old forum for the FSX link.

I did manage to find an earlier download for the Twinkie that identified the aircraft as a Piper Twin in FSX, but sadly the model does not show up in my FSX. Anyway a snoop round the forum seems to have found the UH-1 for FSX as well as the PC-6.

Thanks for taking the time to provide the free links for we dinosaurs!
