headhacker Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 This forum says to not use this for support, but the link to the support is not working so this seems to be the only choice. This is the URL given: https://orbxsystems.com/forum/forum/5-orbx-support-forums/. Am I the only one? This is my question, since I can't send an email or access the forum: Having downloaded the Orbx Central for macOS, it said I needed the FTX Central software. The link provided does not work, which is http://push.cdn.orbxdirect.com/274/Orbx_TrueEarth_GB_South_Demo_CrossPlatform.zip. Any help with this is truly appreciated. I like the look of the products, and would consider a purchase if I can properly use the demo and associated software. BTW, the sub-domains for orbxdirect don't exist, which is probably why the link above is not working. Thanks for any help, Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headhacker Posted August 18, 2019 Author Share Posted August 18, 2019 The support works just fine, but only after registration. Maybe add a note to register before asking for support. My other question still stands and I'll re-ask in the X-Plane 11 forum. Thanks, Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doug Sawatzky Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Hi, welcome to the forums I have merged your topics. You will need to use the new app called "Orbx Central" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headhacker Posted August 19, 2019 Author Share Posted August 19, 2019 Hi Doug, Thanks for the reply. It was inside "Orbx Central" that I read the instructions to download FTX Central as a requirement. Should I not be concerned about downloading that "package"? I am on a Mac running Mojave if it makes a difference. Have a nice day, Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headhacker Posted August 27, 2019 Author Share Posted August 27, 2019 @Doug Sawatzky Can you tell me if I need FTX Central or not? I'd like to know before making a purchase decision. Thanks for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Hello, no you do not but you do need Orbx Central now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headhacker Posted August 27, 2019 Author Share Posted August 27, 2019 28 minutes ago, Nick Cooper said: Hello, no you do not but you do need Orbx Central now. @Nick Cooper It is from inside Orbx Central that I am being told, inside the UI, that I need FTX Central. I have Orbx Central installed, which updated just before this screenshot, and when I click on the airport/region I want to install or get more information about, it tells me I need FTX Central. Circled in RED below is what I am asking about. The language in there makes it seem that FTX Central is something new and under development and that I should expect to use it in the future. "until FTX Central is available for those platforms" is the specific wording. Thanks for any clarifications, Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted August 27, 2019 Share Posted August 27, 2019 Hello, I think that is a "copy and paste" error. You should have no problem installing with Orbx Central. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
headhacker Posted August 27, 2019 Author Share Posted August 27, 2019 Nick, Thanks - I'll give it a try. Appreciate the feedback. Looks beautiful. Need to adjust some settings but definitely an awesome demo. Now to figure out what to get next! Anything around Stonehenge? Cheers, Jon Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
