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.

Hello all, If anyone has a copy of this program, I'd be very grateful. Impossible to download now. Kind regards, Rudy

Glad to hear it! :)

The good thing is, we can open PTP files and have inibuilds, Tavers, Tank etc. liveries which are often better quality than the provided repaints anyway. If anyone is looking for particular colours, many of us I am sure backed up the PMDG ones (myself included), so if you are keen for certain colours, I am sure someone can help if you post in this forum :) Has anyone tested PMDG's 777 download to see if the installers are updated yet?

Ah word not allowed. Somehow I did it, but I just wish I could remembrer how. Did I send these? https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FBhO3HsgZkT2iIJUz7CIZXEbXFfJf8xF/view?usp=sharing Give them a go. Maybe they worked for me? PS I am still looking for AI Aardvark MD-8x models if anyone has them :)

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/G4OAos

Somehow I got mine working with the files I linked you to above. That contains those models. I think I copied TFS models that I got sent from the first zip into my AIG simobjects folder - have you tried that?

Another non-command line ptp opener is floating around too. Can share link if anyone interested

As far as I can tell, both the Avsim and Flightsim links for the base pack on the site you linked don't work? Unless I'm missing something? Thanks for the link though.

Hey mate, Here is a link of TFS A380/777 simobjects that a kind fellow on Avsim sent to me: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1bRDN0VLK9FfZolk_Z1sj2msi5bk_VVI8/view?usp=sharing Here is a link of three zips that I have now in the C:\ProgramData\AIGTech\AIGAIM\temp_model folder for AIG: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/16dkTDf3yoOjVI7IaeWCTei6ZnGRjMny7?usp=sharing I just can't quite remember how they came about...anyway...somehow between the two I got it to work. Later on when doing AIG, I found I had problem sourcing AIAardvark MD-8x models (which were also on flightsim.com). Cheers and hope this helps, Rudy If anyone cares to share the MD-8X AI Aardvarks, I'd be very grateful :)

Hi there - I noticed when the updater opened, the command prompt came up and I happened to notice it was trying to delete .dll, .dll.config, .txt and another type of AIG file in system32, rather than its own directory. It seems to use a relative path to where it thinks it is rather than establishing an absolute path. It also installed AIG things in the system32 folder. They are investigating on the forum, but have said so far it is "my end". Not sure what about this script is "my end", but until we get an answer I'd be wary. Luckily I had a backup from a day ago, so have used robocopy while rebooted in cmd mode to replace missing dlls etc. When it runs now it is updated, it is fine. So not sure what the cause is yet.

Hi chaps, Beware of AIG manager - when it tried to update, it ran a script that deleted files in system32 rather than its own directory. I am assuming this is a bug in the update script (did but now I'm going to ahve to restore backup. I will contact AIG. Was on version AIG_AIManager_1.3.10.1 and it tries to update to 1.4.0.1 word not allowed! Cheers

Don't want to sidetrack thread, but the way Nvidia drivers are lately, I tend to think if it aint broke, don't update their drivers.

I asked PMDG support about this. They said they'd ask Robert to update the installers (for the 777). Fingers crossed they'll do that. NGX is probably too ancient to worry about. I still strongly recommend everyone backs up their appdata folder for the PMDG OC2 (which has the updates in folders there). Cheers, Rudy

Are there some high-quality third-party repaints we should download and unpack to be safe? I have downloaded all of John Tavendale's stuff (for the 738, 777 and 744). Also Matt Tank's. Might look at the inibulds collection, but will only download for 738, 777 and 744 as that's all I have and I don't have infinite storage. Also remember to get the update files you need for the 777 (and NGX if you still use the old NGX) from AppData\Roaming\PMDG\PMDG Operations Center\Updater
