Do we not need to wait for A2A to release a v4.2 updater? This is the first time I will need to update P3D with add-ons installed and I thought that if you upgraded before your add-ons did that it broke everything.

Has anybody found anything that stands out as important in that update?
I couldn't...

All the Accusim-planes are in my hangar, but they aren't sitting long enough for their engines to cool much before next flight!

Only improvements to Dynamic lighting
When I like to do basic flying, I turn to A2A Aircraft, cause A2A "basic" flying means "complex" procedures.

If you installed all your addons OUTSIDE of the P3D direcdtory as recommended, then you
should not have to re-install any of them.

Just installed P3D V4.2. My A2A C172 disappeared. Installation was in a separate directory. Tried to remove and reinstall - still does not appear in the simulator.

Thanks for the heads up! I usually wait about a month + to update my sim stuff for all the updates and bug fixes to be rolled out by various add-on companies. :)

I updated to V4.2 and now I can't see my A2A planes.

They were not installed in the root folder.

No updates needed, so long as you do a client install and you installed outside the main P3D directory as our P3D software does following the Lockheed PDK then you should be able to install and run no issues.

Hello,

if you can post a new thread in a tech support forum we can look into your exact issue. Please give us as many details as you can, including which aircraft and how you installed 4.2. You may simply need to re-link your addon's folder in the add-ons.cfg if you did a full install of 4.2

thanks,
Lewis
