YAMBA1 Posted August 18, 2019 Share Posted August 18, 2019 Quote Install your products anywhere. You can now choose where to install your Orbx products. With multiple installation libraries, we're giving you ultimate control. In Prepar3D v4, this makes use of the add-on package system. If you re-install your simulator, you won't need to re-install your Orbx products again. We'll take care of everything. 1) I start with this quote from your advertising page of the new Central 4.0.6 . A fantastic update which will make things easier for backups and at the fist look easy overall picture of the files owned and update requirement. But then you turn around and say DO NOT Migrate , the Library was only intended for backups ?? So the truth is no backup unless you migrate 2) I update all the airports defined by the "yellow dot" . Great, now those have been backup up in Library I create in my D drive , but the main Airport file remain under P3Dv4 folder . Since I am advised against migrating did those airports update as it should ? Since the file are split in 2 different drives ? 3) Still in Central v4 : YBAS depict a yellow marker for Update available This was the only file that did not work . The little "squirrel" keep on turning indefinitely . I tried to verify files and also (please forgive me ) the possibility of Migrating but YBAS does not bulge . On the good note , The airport is opening OK in the P3D simulator ORBX thoughts and any help would be grateful Kindly Charles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mitchell Williamson Posted August 20, 2019 Share Posted August 20, 2019 Hi Charles, Libraries allow you to install your products outside of the simulator folder using the Prepar3D v4 add-ons system. This removes the need to install directly into the simulator and allows for easier simulator reinstalls. It isn't designed to be a backup, but instead the actual files that get loaded by the simulator.

So the truth is no backup unless you migrate If your scenery already works fine, then there is no need to migrate. We addressed this in the update topic as many believed that migrating was required and were migrating all their installed products. You may still migrate if you wish to have your products installed outside of the simulator (which will prevent needing to reinstall them in the future).

If you press Update in Central, it should update the product in whichever location the simulator will use. This will depend on how you've set it up and I'll need more information on your concern if you'd like further clarification.
