Usually you just run FTX Central and it will sort them out. Other sceneries may need installers rerun to adjust proper files. I just updated the Client and Content - don't see any major changes that would warrant my changing scenery.

That's always a good idea - sort of cleans out any cobwebs.

I'll have to try that. I know zero about P3D.

 

Can't see the role performed by deleting the Shader file? Best to save that for a driver update.

But it does no harm.

 

Dont Delete the Prepar3d.cfg. Just rename it to `.old` or somesuch then you can compare old and new...

 

 

A full changelog and how it applies to each of the .msi's is here https://www.prepar3d.com/SDKv4/prepar3d/what_is_new/new_v43.html

 

The recommendation is that you delete the temporary files.

 

You must update Client .msi to get 4.3

You only get the new aircraft if you update the Content.msi

There are three small updates in the Scenery .msi

Yes, it does no harm but also yes it is recommended. Quite often LM makes changed to the HLSL Shaders which are used to compile the runtime shaders (the ones you are ok to delete). I f you donn't delete the shaders then the new ones cannot be rebuilt.

 

I am in the habit of deleting the shaders after I install ANYTHING to P3D and, of course it's mandatory after a driver update.
