Hi,

 

I just installed the latest version of Orbx Central (I had FTX version 3).

 

-1 Without my request, Orbx Central started downloading all my products (which were already installed via FTX 3).

 

-2 Is that normal? (just in case I just paused the download of the Global Base pack).

 

-3 Orbx central reinstalls all my products when they are already installed? I don't understand.

 

-4 Very important note: I want to keep my installation as it was with FTX 3. That is, in the P3Dv4 directory.

 

-5 What should I do now? Can I fly right away?

 

EDIT: I would add that I have already disabled Auto Updates. So? Ok, last minute: I closed OC and then reopened it. As a result he resumed downloading Global and now he has started downloading Vector just now, whereas I had disabled Auto Updates!!!! Please what does not work with this ORBX Central version?

Thank you and Regards,


Richard

These would be products that are outdated.

Yes.

It isn't reinstalling them, its updating them. There has been updates to quite a few products and these updates are not available via FTX Central 3.

You can, when installing new products simply press 'Simulator' when asked where to install it.

Nothing, everything is backwards compatible and you should be good to go!

Orbx Central automatically resumes installations that were in progress the last time Orbx Central was closed. To stop these, press 'X' on each of the products in the Download Queue.
