Special Server Maintenance
Just when you think you have everything running some what better...
You get a message from the Hosting company. Short story they need to move us to a new server. I have been working with them to plan a good date for all concerned. Here is what we have come up with as a schedule.
- November 4th 17:00 -5UTC shut off the forums and start backup proceedures. During this time there will be no access to the forums or the Resource Section.
- November 5th Continue with Backups and download same until complete.
- November 6th 7:00 turn over server to hosting company to move system to new server
- November 7th - 8th restore backups and upgrade forum software.
If all goes well we should be back online on November 8th.
To keep you updated we will post updates on AVSIM forums.
Thank you for your support.
A Question

Hi Noddy,
I'm not exactly sure, as everything from the Premium Deluxe installed for me from the start (I installed the sim from the Xbox app, making sure to install the Premium Deluxe version and not the Gamepass version which is only the Standard version - there seems to have been some differences in results depending on using that, the MS Store app or Steam).
I have seen some folks comment that the Premium Deluxe planes/scenery weren't installed for them either, but they found them in the Content Manager and downloaded them from there (the Content Manager is found within your Profile, accessed from the Main Menu screen).
Another individual who purchased the Premium Deluxe version but installed only the Standard version said that he was able to go into the Marketplace, where it said he already owned the extra planes and airports, and was able to download and install them that way.

There is a known issue, MS has been tweeting that their staff is investigating the problem. I'd search Google, you'll find some suggestions. But it's a known issue.
I bought the mid-grade, and it looks like that's what was installed. I have the steam-gauge C172, which was my purpose for the upgrade.
I had to essentially do 2 downloads / installs. The first was "basic" at ~50 GB (GiB) and then I went through the next 3 selections...Digital, whatever the mid-level was, and premium. The only one that had anything to download was "Digital". So I downloaded that....95 GiB! The download was slower and it took about 2 - 3 hours. It appears everything in premium is now installed. Hope this helps.

Well i am banging my head on a brick wall, it just does not want to download the Premium Deluxe content.
Hopefully it will sort it's self out at some point
Did you search the web? This is a known issue for many users. It Will get sorted. I have seen some tips posted on how to get by it, but they don't work for everyone.

That's what I had, in the Market Place in game it says I've got all the upgrades and I've definitely got the 747-8.
