Hey there,

i recently got the P-40 and its great! My question is if i would purchase the Spitfire now, do i have to reinstall the P-40?
I have the P-40 + AccuSim + Core Update 1.2 installed so i guess i just have to install the Spitfire + AccuSim and it will make use of the 1.2 Core Update?
Thanks in advance for your assistance!

The advice I've seen given on this very question is to install the latest core update after installing the Spitfire and P-40 models. As I understand it, the P-40 doesn't include all of the Spitfire updates but the Core Update has all of the Spitfire udpates and any P-40 updates that have been offered since either of those packages' initial release.

Edit: I just re-read the question. Install the latest Core Update again after installing the Spitfire, even though you already have the P-40. Both planes will be up to date then.

Spot on Skycat. Install the Spitfire then get the core update and install that to update the Spitfire.

Thanks,

Thanks a lot guys! Now i am ready to get the Spitfire.

I installed the P-40 with Accu_Sim last week. I just purchased the Spitfire with Accu-Sim.

Do I also need the 1.2 Accu-Sim core update to have all the goodies for the Spitfire?

Thanx, Lewis. I figured that out after a closer read of this thread. Anyway, I have the time to do it as I blew the damn engine on my first flight. Not quite sure what I did that was so bad as I was really trying to "manage" everything. It started with some white smoke on the right side that soon went away. But a few minutes later it came back PLUS a lot of blue smoke on the left side. This was followed by gobs of flames, a sputtering engine and eventually disaster

When they dragged her into the hanger, the maintenance crew shook their heads and booted me out. Seems everything from the crankshaft to the hydraulics were hammered.

Quite an initiation to this gal.

Haha, good story! My first Spitfire flight was going OK, but I arrived back at the airport with a lot of altitude to lose. I made the mistake of of cutting my throttle and making a long gliding descent. My sparkplugs got all fouled up, and right as I needed power on final approach I had none... I came down in the trees short of the runway. Needless to say, I've always used power on my decents ever since!

Hello,

After many month far of the A2A products and my FSX now I'm back and I'm a little lost because I have discovered this new patch's version: Accu-Sim Core Update v.1.2

Today on my FSX I've installed these two products of A2A like that:



Please can you give me the good procedure for installed these 2 addons (P47 + Spitfire MkI/II) correctly and explain to me if I possess the good or bad patchs ?

On this forum of the Spitfire MkI/II you have wrote:
Just run this over any accusim spit installation. The core update v.1.1 is not necessary to install first.

Please can you explain to me if my installation is correct or not ?
And of course please can you explain to me when I must installed the "Accu-Sim Core Update v.1.2" ?

If I install the "Accu-Sim Core Update v.1.2" this patch upgrade automatically my WoP3 P47 and my WoP3 Spitfire ?

A great thank's in advance for all and best regards, Olivier...

Hi Olivier-

To me it looks like you did everything correct, and in the right order! All you should need to do is run the Accu-sim 1.2 next, and you are all set. Keep in mind, it is my understanding that the P-47 (and the B-17 and Cub) are older Accu-sim aircraft, so they will not benefit from the new update 1.2. The new updates will only apply to the Spitfire, P-40 and future Accu-sim aircraft.

If I'm wrong on this, someone please correct me!

Hope this helps...

Joe
