If you do I think you put in a full install of v5 HF1. I think from what I have read that some add ons have to be updated from v5 to v5 HF1.

And what a headache now tracking down more updates. I spend or waste more time doing this in both sims. Makes me really want to just dump it all and do something else in life. I wish everyone out there would follow Orbx’s installer model. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you kept v4.5?? TTM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wain71 Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 nice shot but weird cloud........I have just set it up, added Orbx and away I have gone......I am quite happy at the moment, very smooth in either standard or EA.....however sometimes in EA the clouds can be a bit orangey in the evening.....I am liking how you can go from one view to another and it takes a while to adjust, much like your eyes, I saw this a while back in v4 with REX EF......still keeping v4.5 for my tubes though....

I have very detailed install logs and screen caps so I’m matching settings as much as possible to 4.5, the new FSUIPC will help too. Just installed it and am flying a Carenado default plane over KATL and it is smooth. Not installed Orbx yet. But gotta go out for a hike, it’s a special and depressing day for me, cannot say here why. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That sounds like a very clever move. 53 minutes ago, Jack Sawyer said: Not installed Orbx yet. How could you?

TTM Hi TTM, this doesn't seem to apply to my situation because I'm doing a post HF1 bran new installation. I never installed V5 before. Remember, I was moments away from installing V5 Pre-HF then downloaded all the files for the new V5, HF1. Make sense? I dunno. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nick Cooper Posted May 2, 2020 Share Posted May 2, 2020 Hello Jack, if you are making a fresh installation, then all you need to do after downloading the file from your P3D account and extracting it is to run Setup_Prepar3D.exe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks Nick. I did that this morning, went for a hike, and now I'm back. I have Central open, and it sees V5. Anything I should or shouldn't do in Central? Just start installing? I hope I don't have to download all those files, I mean I have everything Orbx makes plus ChasePlane. Will it pull the files from my Library or should I maybe sync the sim first ? Thanks for your help, I very much appreciate it Nick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
