Atomic_Sheep Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Haven't used ORBX for a while, was wondering what the procedure for installing ORBX is. Don't remember since it has been many years since I flew FSX. I plan to install FTX AU and all my Australian airports that I have. What do I need to install first, last, in the middle?

Nick Cooper Posted March 3, 2018 Share Posted March 3, 2018 Hello, if your products are DVDs, install Australia and FTX Central will be installed with it. Then install your airports and the libraries last. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic_Sheep Posted March 3, 2018 Author Share Posted March 3, 2018 Thanks Nick, will do it that way! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic_Sheep Posted March 4, 2018 Author Share Posted March 4, 2018 I found an SP4.002 patch file in my folder for FTX AU, however I can't figure out if my DVD is SP2/3/4 as per installer's requirements. I seem to remember I used to install SP2, SP3 and SP4 prior to this file, but I'm not sure where I can get SP2/3/4 files? EDIT: Now I also stumbled across Holger mesh. Remember installing this at some point as well. Also, how do you download this?h I click add to account on the ORBX website, but nothing happens.

Nick Cooper Posted March 4, 2018 Share Posted March 4, 2018 Hello, you can find DVD updates here: As far as I can tell, you don't have an Orbx Direct account. Please have a read of this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atomic_Sheep Posted March 7, 2018 Author Share Posted March 7, 2018 Why is YMML not included in crossgrade? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doug Sawatzky Posted March 7, 2018 Share Posted March 7, 2018 Go ahead and submit it, you should be ok. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic_Sheep Posted March 7, 2018 Author Share Posted March 7, 2018 The crossgrade service is also limited to a number of Eligible DVDs. Please refer to the list below. Authorised Resellers YMML is not on the list. Would have been nice to know that YMML wasn't on the list before I made the purchase. Looks like my FTX Australia DVD wasn't purchased form the Flight Sim Store, so now I've got no use for the crossgrade functionality. Waste of 4 bux ><.

Doug Sawatzky Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Are you using FTX Central v3 to install? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic_Sheep Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 No, DVD. I don't know what version the DVD files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Hello, after you have installed from your DVD, click on the product icon in FTX Central, hover your mouse cursor over the tick in the white circle and it will tell you what version you have. However, only the two updates are available for download. Looking back over your topic, there are outstanding questions. Firstly, the list of products available for DVD crossgrade is visible before the point at which you needed to pay any money. Assuming that you did purchase your DVD from an authorised reseller the crossgrade should have gone ahead after you provided the necessary proof of purchase. Secondly, if you had purchased your DVD from the FSS, there is no need to crossgrade, its licence would have been transferred along with any others. Thirdly, you have already transferred your FSS licences which is why there is no longer an option to do so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic_Sheep Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 For me AU Australia is greyed out after installation. But I take it since they are the only two updates available, that's done so there's less fuss installing everything? i.e. they are cumulative?

Nick Cooper Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Can you go to ORBX\User documents\Versions and see if your have FTX_AUSTRALIA.TXT. If you have, please open it and see what is written in it. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic_Sheep Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 Sure, FTX AUSTRALIA DVD (AVALON EDITION) VERSION 1.00 MARCH 2009 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted August 13, 2018 Share Posted August 13, 2018 Thanks. that is rather old but you could try the existing updates, I don't think they will break it. They don't use FTX Central to install them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Atomic_Sheep Posted August 13, 2018 Author Share Posted August 13, 2018 I installed 4.03 and 410 and FTX Central now registers FTX Australia. Just FYI. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
