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!

    Pretty petty IMHO. I wound up mass installing everything into P4 and 5 and backing everything up to a backup drive. I still use 4 and 5 on a pretty regular basis.

  • I'll leave this link here to the PTP opener I've used that seems to work well - you will need to manually install the livery after it's unpacked them, but at least it is GUI. https://gofile.io/d/G4OA

    Request have been made for PTP functionality off the server. I've seen no PMDG response to this. As with most things P3D my guess is the answer is NO. My humble opinion is, if they thought they could

I think it gets them from ActiveSky? 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.

Usually I'm a lurker on forums these days, but this just really struck a wrong chord with me. 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!!!
