PEIRascal Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 You might not want to hear this, but my update took all of 13 - 15 minutes and works like a charm. I still have some issues to be fixed but I have been flying, and enjoying, since installing on August 21. Alienware Aurora R13, I7-12700KF, 16g DDR5 4400 memory, 256g NVMe boot drive, 1 - 2t NVMe m.2 drive for Apps, 2 - 1t SSD for Data, GeForce RTX 3080 TI 12g, Windows 11 Pro.

JSkorna Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 The patch works great, especially if you read AND follow the release notes. Took about 4 minutes for me. http://www.air-source.us/images/sigs/000219_195_jimskorna.png Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sky44 Posted September 2, 2020 Author Share Posted September 2, 2020 good for you. I had the sim all set up and have been flying since Alpha but the update simply would not start!....this is still in the womb!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pmplayer Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Mine works fine too..fast and no probs it wasent to big.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sevsterino Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Works great for me too. Although the isntall took only a few minutes, I had to wait good 3-5 minutes with a blackscreen before it even started installing. It few parts of the process it seemed that the computer hanged. Maybe a stupid question, did you wait for 5-10 minutes after initating the installation? Or how did it happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
amberdog1 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Steam updated it, works fine for me. Still trying to learn how to make everything work but having lots of fun trying and learning. Happy :pilot: Flyin' y'all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tacomasailor Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 (edited) Some of us have had no problems of any kind and are very happy! Update required less than 5-minutes and made no change of any kind to my Sim, which was and still is working just as I wish. The initial 91 GB install took 55-minutes to download and less than 10-minutes to unpack and install. I was flying the Cessna 152 around Eastern San Diego county in fewer than 90-minutes from the time I began the initial small download. I'm getting 40 FPS flying the Textron/Cessna 152 around the San Diego or Puget Sound country side. I see 35 FPS flying into and out of KTIW or KORS with the ORBX payware upgrade. I see 30 FPS flying around downtown Seattle at 2000' in the 152. All this with mostly ULTRA settings and the two sliders set to 120. But, NO AI traffic and only 25% - 30% surface traffic. Navigraph runs perfectly on a 2nd monitor and on an iPad. My 12-year old CH Flight Yoke and Pedals work perfectly as does my really old Saitek ST290Pro stick. I can find nothing to complain about!

Kapitan Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 Worked perfectly here! 10 minutes Kapitan Anything I say is...not as serious as you think Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnnyJohnJohn Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 You know, I'm getting tired of seeing people gripe and complain about this sim. I have accessed my achievements areas in the simulator, and it shows that only like 1% or less than 10% of the flight sim pilots even seem to accomplish anything. So I say put your beer goggles down, get into the simulator and really try it, and top being an XPlane or P3D Fan Boy Karens and complain about everything MS Flight Simulator Does.

Kurtvw Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Try a transcontinental flight!! Try to save your flight as the default flight............ Already told you, you can save flights in progress, stop trolling. Do you work for X-Plane or something? You clearly don't own this sim, but have a lot of wrong info about it.

rajgon Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 After installing the patch FS 2020 crashed on the first couple of starts. I was worried I was going to have to download everything again, but I went ahead and repaied the install to fix any lingering errors. Then I did what has always worked for me to minimize crashes. I started FS 2020 in administrative mode. It has been running like a charm ever since. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elvensmith Posted September 4, 2020 Share Posted September 4, 2020 Steam update was totally painless. Most of the files were for the Steam element, the actual MS/Asobo element was around 87kb (yes that's kilobytes) and took all of about 90 seconds to install. Obviously sorry to hear people are having problems, but it's a bit like condemning a car manufacturer because you happened to get the one that developed a particular defect, when the other 20k models didn't.
