Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted July 12, 2018 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted July 12, 2018 Question to those seeing it with 4.3: How did you upgrade to 4.3? Client only? eveything? fresh install? I did a client update only (Scenery and content still on 4.0 ) and do not see this problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reider 57 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Full install as my son had problems on his so I wanted to see if I had the same when installing 4.3 otherwise I would have done the same as you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a client only update, but maybe there’s a chance I did it wrong? Did I have to uninstall the 4.2 client before installing 4.3? Cause all I did was run the 4.3 installer with 4.2 still installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

YES, big mistake and LM clearly stats on their website how to correctly update P3D! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skitchie98 16 Posted July 12, 2018 Author Share Posted July 12, 2018 What, you think I actually read INSTRUCTIONS? All joking aside I feel like a big fat idiot, I’m not home at the moment but when I get home I’ll actually install 4.3 *correctly*. On the plus side if that’s the issue it means there’s no tweaking on the bus itself to fix this! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People incorrectly updating their P3Ds and therefore causing this issue would (for us) of course be the "best" option lol Honestly though, let us know how your update turns out as this could possibly indeed be one of the main causes for this problem. Using older P3D versions I can reliably recreate this problem, so chances are that this is one of the main reasons why this could happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted July 12, 2018 Aerosoft Share Posted July 12, 2018 The installer does ask for a reboot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icallhertaco 4 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Just adding to the list, can confirm my issue was not being on 4.3. First 4.3 upgrade install did not work.(Little did I know) Installed client for 4.3 and all problems are gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted July 12, 2018 Aerosoft Share Posted July 12, 2018 Okay so slowly a pattern emerges.... we have found that at least in a few occasions it's the sim that is not correct. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could you do a p3d version check during the installer to make sure ppl have 4.3 or higher? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted July 12, 2018 Aerosoft Share Posted July 12, 2018 Tricky as it would exclude 4.4 etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure that would really be helpful for users like us because the issue isn’t 4.3 not being installed, it’s 4.3 being installed incorrectly. My system confirms that 4.3 is installed, but it’s been confirmed that it was installed incorrectly which is something the Aerosoft installer probably cant root out.

Returns true for 4.3 or anything higher. Though obviously it's more tricky than that with version numbers that are not strictly numerical. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aerosoft Aerosoft Team [Inactive Account] 51558 Posted July 12, 2018 Aerosoft Share Posted July 12, 2018 We have rather bad experience with tricks like that. And besides: Please login to display this image. Think that that is pretty clear. When you actually buy the product we ask you to make sure that your system requirements are met. Please login to display this image. I think we got to great lengths to make sure people do not make mistakes. We had one customer just now who has FS2004 and bought the product, but what can we do more? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ll own up to it, i blazed right through the checkboxes at checkout without reading them. And I’m guessing that’s probably what Mr. FS2004 did as well. I get that as a company you’re obligated to provide assistance and fixes for issues but at some point the line has to be drawn that it’s 100%, 24/7, 365, on the customer.

Emi 5161 Posted July 12, 2018 Share Posted July 12, 2018 Gentleman, for those of you who are on 4.3 already and still encounter this issue, we prepar3d (hint hint) some experimental files. Note that these are totally experimental and thus untested. They may or may not work, no promises given so please make backups of your previous files. NewFilesetAfterRelease.zip Please let us know if these help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
