Manok101 Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 It would be nice to know if I needed to clear space off the hard drive before I downloaded the latest update, or redownloaded something again. As it is now, I only see how much you have downloaded and how fast you are downloading something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Attwood Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 My thoughts exactly. It's nice to know how far along you've got. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adam Banks Posted December 21, 2016 Share Posted December 21, 2016 I'll check to see what new "feechers" are slated for FTXC. My request would be a mouse-over on the add-on image that gives you a pop-up including not only the file size but the current version. This tooltip could work with all add-on images - already installed or not yet bought, so you'd know whether you have the HD space *before* you buy. Adam.

Jon Clarke Posted December 22, 2016 Share Posted December 22, 2016 Agreed and mentioned many times, and in my opinion not difficult to do. Why not have it printed on the Product page? FSS used to and most retailers of addons give you a download size so you know what to expect to have to download. Slow internet users would then be able to plan their download method accordingly. A multi GB file at 200kbps can tie up the internet for many hours as I know from personal experience. It stops other household family members from using the net or adds much more time to the download if others manage to get a look in and be able to use the net.

cgsimpson Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 Yes Thanks…some of us still have vintage download speeds and it would help us with our timing of installations. Graeme Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Attwood Posted December 23, 2016 Share Posted December 23, 2016 While you're there Adam would you see if there will be a red 'notification' tag on the Regions. i.e. Global, Europe, Oceania and North America to indicate there is an update available as there was in V2?

Hi Adam, just wondering if this idea was pursued any further as it is the one improvement I would love to see in FTX Central. Along with PDF manuals for all products, including those not purchased so we can be more informed. cheers Anton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ron Attwood Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 I hadn't forgotten this one either. I expect it will be included in the new version for P3D V4. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
