Wednesday at 05:54 AM5 days I have noted that we can no longer download winds aloft through FMS as we used to.The result of server no longer connecting.Have not tried the EFB but its probably gone as well. Of course you can get winds from other sources but that item in the PMDG FMS was very helpful over the past 10 years!tesza Terry Hogan Specs: P3D Academic v5.4, RTX 3060, Intel I7-12700KF , Gigabyte Z790 Aorus AX ICE, DDR5 32gb 6000mhz , 1x32",2x 27" monitors

Can help you set it up if you are having problems (also check their intro manual) but I don't think OC2 connectivity had anything to do with FMS winds aloft unless I am greatly mistaken.

First they miscommunicate the date, OC2 was completely shut off today, 4 days earlier than the May 31st timeline. Then, Mathijs on the PMDG forums says that there are no plans to bring any P3D products to OC3. Anyone still using PMDG products in P3D are essentially swindled of their money and the product they rightfully paid for and have the right to use, 4 days before the expected date. The very least they could have done is released an end-of-life update to either disconnect it from OC2, or released official solutions for livery installation. Unbelievably scummy behavior.And, to realize that it was us, starting from FSX and P3D that made them known. Not to mention the cashflow from us!!!

21 hours ago21 hr A work in progress. This will be for P3D V5 as that's the only one I have.Note: this does NOT distribute PMDG's liveries. Their liveries are copyrighted (as per PMDG) and redistribution is prohibited. You WILL need to have your own backup of the liveries. As there are so many potential combinations of folder structures, this will only work with the folder structure produced by my scripts on page 3 https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/695375-pmdg-oc2/page/3/#findComment-5768330Maybe in the future, if PMDG are sweetened to the idea, I could enable this app to redistribute the liveries. That's not planned for now though as I do not intend to violate their terms.Also, this application will NOT ship with PMDG's decryption key. I'm afraid you will have to review the alternative options out there to find the key. There is however an input on the Settings page in which you can enter the key so the installation process can function as normal.Screenshots show dark mode, but I am aware there may be users with visual impairments. I care deeply about accessibility so I will work on alternate colour schemes which you'll be able to change in the Settings page.
