PMDG Operations Center 2.0 Rolling Out Now

We have just commenced the update process to bring our globalcustomer base up to date with the new PMDG Operations Center 2.0.

PMDG Operations Center 2.0 is a direct replacement for PMDGOperations Center. To receive the update is simple: Simply runOperations Center and as the update propagates globally, you willeventually see the red "Update Available" chip appear and OC1 willoffer you the opportunity to install an update. Obviously, yes, youwant to install that update. When you do, the update process willhandle the rest for you, and you will be left with a shiny, new PMDGOperations Center 2.0.

Some things to know:

• Transition to PMDG OC2.0 is mandatory for all users.
• PMDG OC2 is the foundation of future growth, to include eventually all product installation/maintenance/updating.
• PMDG OC2.0 will be the entry portal for PMDG Global Flight Operations.
• PMDG OC2.0 is a 64bit program, meaning that you MUST have a 64bit version of windows. (99.24% of the installed windows base is using one so you are probably good here...)
• PMDG OC2.0 is compatible with FSX, FSX-SE, P3D v3, P3D v4 and will eventually support future MSFS and P3D platforms as well if/when they are released.

So why the update if we didn't add new functionality for you?With this update, we are now able to more easily providecustomer micro-updates, livery updates and management, etc. OC1 was avery limited platform that outgrew its original design. PMDGOperations Center 2.0 is a much more well written product that willallow us to securely deliver full products, updates and somecomponents of technical support in order to improve the overall userexperience.

PMDG Operations Center 2.0 is the bedrock upon which Global FlightOperations will run, so we are excited to finally have this stepaccomplished as it brings us closer to GFO release.

As you make the transition: It is possible that OC2 will show you abunch of notifications related to any liveries you have installed atthe time of update. We recommend that you simply pass through theupdate page by pressing DISMISS on each of them the first time, thenclose OC2 and relaunch the application. This will allow it to beall-caught-up in managing your liveries for you.

NOTAM for all windows 7 32 bit (and WinXP, etc.) users:

Do not install this update. If you do, it will disable the PMDGOperations Center 1.0. You cannot use the PMDG Operations Center 2.0because it is a 64 bit program.

Effective March 1st, we will be turning off online support for PMDGOperations Center 1.0 so we recommend you take the time to upgradeyour windows platform to Windows 10.

This notam is related only to Windows. It doesn't matter which simyou have, you have to be on a 64 bit Windows platform.
