mutley 4,498 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Today announces the release of the next evolution of Prepar3D v2 with Prepar3D v2.1. Updates to Prepar3D v2 are available in both a patch to an existing v2 installation, or as a new installer from your Purchased Downloads page. If you are a current Prepar3D v2 user, there is no charge to upgrade. More here Link to post Share on other sites

allardjd 1,853 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Looking at the list of enhancements and fixes (which L-M credits users with reporting), most of that just has to have come from flight sim hobbyists, not so much from commercial customers. For example, there are a number of references to fixes for Orbx products. It would be interesting to see the ratio of Academic licenses sold vs. the other types that are sold to developers and commercial users - not that that data will ever see the light of day. I'd be very surprised if the number of Academic licenses does not dwarf the rest. This is another nail in the FSX coffin, though there's plenty of life left in that one too. In a word, P3D is being actively developed and improved; FSX is not, except through add-ons, most of which work in P3D as well. Can you spell NGFS? John Link to post Share on other sites

needles 1,013 Posted February 12, 2014 Report Share Posted February 12, 2014 Temptation, temptation. Resist, resist. I know I'm going to have to convert one day. I will, once they tell us, all FSX add-ons are compatible. Then it would be a no-brainer. Thanks for the HU Joe. Link to post Share on other sites
