  1. Hello, if you had clicked on the Accuseason Advanced tab in Orbx Central, you would have seen that the product is not yet available. If you were to visit Orbx Direct, you would see that it is still listed as "Coming Soon". Orbx Central has been made ready for the release but the latest statement from Orbx is that Rex have not yet sent the files. Apologies for causing your confusion but as you stated, you already have full access to the product update, as arranged by Rex themselves.
  2. Hello, until the new version can be installed using Orbx Central, you will need to open it using its own shortcut. Although you may wish to keep both versions, there is absolutely no point in doing that. Accuseason Advanced does exactly what Accuseason does and more besides, if you want it to. Using both together will just cause confusion and possibly, even unnecessary errors. I would advise you to uninstall Accuseason from Orbx Central.
  3. Hello, the solution, according to Rex, is not complex. You should delete Documents\REX 7\REX AccuSeason Advanced Edition\profile.json. The next time you open REX AccuSeason Advanced Edition, you will be made to register again. Thereafter, it will work. I have no idea why, but I had to do it too and it is now working again.
  4. Hello, judging by your first post, your C drive is not the only one. I guess that I may be a fairly typical flight simulator user and yet my C drive looks like this: As mentioned above, unless there are numerous programs in use that have nothing to do with flight simulation, all storing huge files on the C drive, a C drive should not need to be any larger than 250 GB. I would guess that with a little more housekeeping, you could well find that you don't need a larger one. As an aside, the rest of my PC has 16TB of internal storage available and another 10TB of external storage.
  5. Hello, if it was installed, or still is, then the serial number is in Documents\REX 6\REX AccuSeason\profile.xml. Your order number is the Orbx transaction number.
  6. Hello, I have been given to understand that this is a known problem. The product is however by Gaya Simulations.
  7. Hello Wayne, I notice that tomorrow is Monday, so may I wish you the best possible outcome from the day in the fervent hope that it turns out that all is well. The very best wishes to you.
  8. Hello, I have asked for this to be investigated. It will probably be Monday now, as it is 1815 hrs in Melbourne, on Friday evening. I note that you may still be able to use the new product over the weekend, there does not seem to be the same error message if you ask Orbx Central to install into MSFS instead of into an Orbx Central Library.
  9. Hello, I have just now sent a message to these developers myself. I await a reply.
  10. Hello, last post and last visit are here: Sniper31 - Orbx Community and Support Forums (orbxdirect.com) If you want to send him a message, he is to be found here these days: sniper31 - The AVSIM Community
  11. Hello, this is the official announcement: Orbx Central for P3Dv6? - Page 2 - General Discussion - Orbx Community and Support Forums (orbxdirect.com) There are two unsupported workarounds: Registry 'trick' for installing addons in P3D v6 - The Prepar3d Forum - The AVSIM Community Prepar3D v6.0 Features and Enhancements - General Discussion - Orbx Community and Support Forums (orbxdirect.com)
  12. It was the first jet airliner. It's not quite as simple as that, the design was rushed into production in an effort to beat the Americans to it. Because the available jet engines were not powerful enough, the aircraft was made too light to resist metal fatigue, which was an unknown quantity in those days. The use of square windows provided the necessary weak point for the fatigue to start and they began to fall out of the sky. It was a case of back to the drawing board and while it was grounded, Boeing learned from the unfortunate British experience and were also given the time to perfect the 707. It then wiped the commercial floor with it and by the time the Comet was ready, the 707 had won the race for most of the orders. However, the Comet did go on to do sterling service for many years with both commercial airlines and the Royal Air Force. Historically, the British have proved themselves to be masters of superb design and technology. British management is another story and that of the two largest airlines of the time, BOAC and BEA, were directly, but not solely, responsible for the demise of what had been a world-leading aircraft industry. The Vickers VC10, for example, is considered by many, including me, to be a stunning design and if a jet airliner can be beautiful, then it was. However, there were endless delays in its production and by the time it was ready, its reason d'etre had evaporated. The fact that it was developed for short and high runways just before the world decided to build much longer runways for the 707 and its peers to lumber into the air, ensured that its higher operating costs consigned it to spend most of its long life with the military, where cost is not always the deciding factor. Commercial passengers loved how quiet it was and pilots loved how it performed but the management (them again) hated it, despite having specified it in the first place. BOAC even told the world that it was no good, thus ensuring that Vickers could not sell it to anyone else. Later, the same management techniques contributed to the demise of the British motorcycle, truck and car manufacturing industries as well. The intervention of some truly atrocious political decision making added to the disastrous outcomes.

  14. Hello Wayne, your other option is to use the workaround that you used to install it and then uninstall it.
  15. Hello, a small glitch in the installation has now been fixed. Apologies for the inconvenience.
  16. Hello, was your scenery in an Orbx Central Library?
  17. Hello, the reason is that Orbx Central is not seeing the version that it is expecting. You just need to do nothing and then you will retain your version.
  18. What a shame that this could not ended as it started, a polite discussion. Please note that no one from the Orbx official side has commented, one way or another.
  19. Hello, if they are shaded then you have installed Vector as an add-on and you can disable them in the in-game add-ons list instead. The long delay is usually only once and if you disable Vector in the add-ons list, it will not do anything in P3D.
  20. Hello, your own topic has been answered by the Orbx CEO and there is also this, from 10 days ago.
  21. @WebMaximus @B12 Hello to both of you. There was no intention to be rude or indeed "Snarky". I am sorry that you feel that way, I have seen that Richard reads the other forums, as I do. I am obliged to B12 for pointing out to me the error of my ways and I will try hard not to make the same mistake again. It appears from the posts above that events have overtaken us all.
  22. Hello, you can read the developer's intentions here: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/upcoming-egnx-by-pyreegue/586632/66?u=ancientdisc6642 As I am sure you know.
  23. Hello, by all means. the latest update that I have is this: There is an anomaly on the UI that has not previously been seen and is being investigated.
  24. Hello, the "last couple of posts" now show the value of spoilers, when posting vast amounts of text.
  25. Hello, the profile says 20th July 2006. 17?
