Aerosoft. 

Unfortunately, the FSLabs I believe is version-locked, so doesn't work in v6, but AS gets the job done nicely.

Great is that the A320 or 330.

I have never seen P3D look this good,

Agree.  Still a few issues here and there, but definitely moving in the right direction.

Is the Majestic Dash8 sill working fine?

I have 6.035 installed. What happens if I don't update to 6.036 first before auto-updating to 6.1 and how do I update to 6.036?

Thanks.

t it basically tricks older add-ons into thinking you have P3D v5 installed.  

 

Thanks for the detailed explanation on what to do. One question - does this still work if you really do have P3D v5 still installed or does it create conflicts?

Couldn't answer. I uninstalled v5 when I went to v6

You have to update to 6.036 if you want the faster update to 6.1 otherwise the release notes say you need to download the big file instead.

I downloaded the big one, ran it, still in .035 and it will not permit updating to 6.1XX.

Update to navaids outside a major release is a very pleasant surprise. That has not historically happened. I wonder if we’ll be getting more frequent navdata updates.

I ended up having to uninstall V6.0.36 and then running the new V6.1 installer.

Make sure you run as Admin.

Upgraded to 6.1.38 with no problem. Screen note says Upgrade successful. However, if I now try to run any mission/scenario in  the sim, it immediately crashes to the desktop. Cannot run any scenarios. Any thoughts on this? Thanks.

Sounds like something may be amiss with the installers.
