miinuskolm Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Hi, I also can`t update openLC Europe with FTX Central P3DV3 (v3.0.2.2) because FTX Central stays to one place and don`t move forward - check the license forever! Tried several times ( both yesterday and today ): Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tried several times ( both yesterday and today ): Welcome to the club! You should start a topic in the FTX Central Support forum, not that there aren't enough of similar topics already though. I've noticed that it's predominantly Swedish and / - or Finnish customers that have this problem. If I'm not mistaken, all Finnish internet traffic goes through Sweden and that might be part of the explanation why customers from both countries are affected.

Teo Mikael Karvonen Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Welcome Miinus. Luckily I can say, that you're not the only one with this issue. I recently bought ftx vector and openlc and I cant even download them. Good stuff to use over 200€ products I'm not even able to use. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ALZ150A Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Thank you John. It took me two days trying to install the OPEN LC EUROPE update 1.30. It was very slow (I thought it could take more than 24 hours) and the download was interrupted when it reached 24%. Today it took me about 5 minutes after clearing all temp files Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Cooper Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 Hello, that certainly looks impressive, I can see why you are frustrated with the FTX speed. As I posted in another thread, it is clear that there is a problem. It is also clear that I don't have the skill, knowledge or tools to fix it but I have asked for someone who has these things to investigate. Regrettably, I can do no more and am also awaiting an answer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmb Posted December 17, 2016 Share Posted December 17, 2016 It may not help anyone either, however: I just downloaded Sogndal with my maximum speed (100MB/s) from Germany via FTXC3. Method was install and make backup, server CDN. No download manager used. As a sidenote: I also used my VISA card for buying which worked flawless, however, I would still prefer to get PayPal back as soon as possible. Kind regars, Michael Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sniper31 Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Fwiw, I also purchased ENSG Sogndal as well as PAHO Homer and EU Germany North, and all downloaded speedily, efficiently without error. No download manager used. In fact I have not changed any of the download settings in FTX Central v3 since installing, so my download settings there are the default ones. Even with downloading EU Germany North, all three downloads were complete and installed in about 40 minutes. Reminder that I live in Hawaii, an island in the middle of the Pacific ocean. I have not had any download slowdowns to speak of since installing FTX Central 3. I am wondering if the problem is regional? I don't know....this does seem to be a troublesome problem for some folks, and I hope the fix is discovered soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mikelab6 Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Downloaded and installed PAVD via FTXC3 last week (CDN ticked). It took about 3 hours for 2.75 GB. Today, I did download it via Manual Download to have a backup. With Free Download Manager, it took 15 minutes For all my next purchases, I will use the Manual Download via Free Download Manager..... Question : No more MD5 value is showing on web site. How can we check file integrity now, using a download manager ? Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

miinuskolm Posted December 18, 2016 Share Posted December 18, 2016 Hi Nothing help - very, very, very slow download speed with FTX Central 3 (3.0.2.2). FTX Central 3 don`t go ahead to next step - check the license will remain forever. Also can`t download manualy - download time 14 days(!!!) and it stops after a few mega downloads. And now more - i don`t have nothing downloaded but i have limit exceeded (You are only able to download five (5) FSS products every 24 hours. For more information, please see this topic: Please find a solution! Maybe you may temporarily make an external link ? Previously, with FTX Central 2 ,i got all the downloads done in a few minutes.

stoney Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I suggest John, that your predownload suggestions be placed somewhere so as to be noticed before starting a download. Not after, and in a Forum. Wish I had known about them before I downloaded Norway. Stoney. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Archive82 Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Have had the same problem as others: took 23 hrs to download last purchase via FTX with multiple broken connections and restarts (started at 7:00PM local and ended the next day at 5:00 pm local). Speeds all over the lot. If I understand all of the above confusion: 1. One has to purchase something before you can decide whether or not to download it via FTX3 or via some download manager manually. If one downloads via FDM can you then load the newly downloaded program into existing Orbx programs directly from C:/Downloads? 2. What is this "CDN" download people refer to? I see nothing about any Canadian download site. If it exists, how is it reached? I had no problem loading multiple Orbx products from the FlightSim Store, but now... -=dcp=- Pacific Northwest - Seattle area Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nordlicht Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 I have the same Problem. After a while the Download alwas stops.

miinuskolm Posted December 19, 2016 Share Posted December 19, 2016 Hi, I don`t get at all from Checking License to next step - files to download! It`s no longer only slow download speed but it is completely defective FTX Central 3. It seems that FTX Central 3 haven`t been tested enough before it was introduced. .ORBX forum can be read, that the majority of customers everything works OK and only a small part can`t download product and so on... Merry Christmas and we hope that there is light at the end of the tunnel ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archive82 Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Ominous silence from Orbx staff and owners, guys. One would expect a quick response from someone. The product may be good, but if the service is poor, the whole thing crashes. Wake up someone down there in Oz, you have a problem, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because what ever is it cant see that I use Sonera, or Sonera cant see that I am downloading from what ever is it. We who have TeliaSonera in Sweden and Finland as internet service provider couldent even start the downloading. We didnt even get through the " the licens check" but there was some clever guys who tried to download through VPN service and that made the trick, even my speed which not has "rocket connection status " were good. Maybe that works even for you to "go around" the problem to increase the download speed Jerker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hawx2k Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 Just to add to this incredible support/service desaster on OrbX's side: Now even the manual download option is not an option any more. Not only do I get ridiculously slow d/l speeds from within FTX Central (like 9KB/s), even when downloading manually from the website it is the same speed. Jeez, OrbX, wake up or you will loose customers. You can keep customers calm only for so long. And repeating it's the customer's fault when your forums are full of reports is just incredibly unwise. FWIW: Yes, I had enabled CDN, had deleted the temp folder, had restarted the PC etc. etc. etc. Get your act together quickly, please. In the meantime I go flying, with or without your updates or new products. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted December 20, 2016 Share Posted December 20, 2016 No one apart from you has suggested that this is the fault of any customer. Some customers have however reported that action that they have taken has fixed their particular problem with download speeds. I suppose you could interpret that as being their own fault if it fits the point you are trying to make. The suggestions made are intended to help and in some cases have done. They fall under the heading of "support". The situation for those who are experiencing this problem is indeed both regrettable and unacceptable. This has been acknowledged and efforts are being made to resolve the problem. It does seem likely that there is not one universal solution that will solve the problem at a stroke, as evidenced by the mixed results of the various measures suggested by both support and customers themselves so far. I think that the constant repetition of an accepted complaint contributes nothing at all towards its solution. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
