Finally pulled the trigger and the download just started. My speed is probably not good enough but tough I am moving forward anyway.

6%

What's your line speed Dave?

Good luck and after the download, enjoy the new sim!

Keep in mind I am very Rural

I pay for 10MB down and 3MB up

I don't always get that speed. :biggrin-new:

My internet comes from the Farmers Silo down the road. I think that tower as we might call it picks up its signal from Another tower over by our farm which is about 2 miles away.

Every few months I ask for more Speed but Scotty says I'm giving you all she got and she can't handle anymore. :biggrin-new:
 
By the way, when the installation finishes, you might want to go to offline mode:


  1. Launch Microsoft Flight Simulator.
  2. Go to Options > General > Data.
  3. Toggle Online Functionality OFF.
  4. Click on Apply & Save.

Although I just read that 5 Mbps is the minimum required

You must live either way inland or way South. I figured fast internet would be everywhere there by now. I left there before the internet! LOL!

Hang in there Dave.
I live in the middle of Virginia and can only get 700M DL.
People in the 3rd world countries can get better service than us "rich" folks in the USA.

"Whut do you mean fiber optic? We ain't got that fer you all. Mebbie in four or six years.", and this is with Verizon.
 
Caution: the attached screenshot will likely make you ill! :biggrin-new:

BTW, I shall have another check in the mail Monday for an SOH donation. I see we're getting close. This is my "only" go-to Flight Sim Forum simply because it is the best for a quick look for the best products and also I get the best quick answers to questions in my feeble attempts to keep up with the Joneses in developing scenery and aircraft liveries. If I ever get the real hang of the liveries, you're going to see a slew of them. I have the textures done, but the SDK and I do not get along with creating the Packages!.

As of right now 53GB of the content are downloaded... only 101 GB more to go.

Just watching my routers dash board and currently downloading at 1 to 2.5 MB. Pretty slow but we are getting there.
 
I have a Good Greens foil bag of VA Medically legal Animal Face strain Cannabis. Three tugs and you'll be out long enough for the download, LOL!

HA HA HA!!!!! I figured down in your neck of the woods there would be fields of it by now! LOL! Man, I'd get no simming or no modeling done!

Too much trouble with groundhogs and deer to grow it Don, but you can bet that the Mountain Hill community has that covered. No, I purchase my medical Cannabis in Lynchburg at the RISE dispensary. We are supposed to be getting one in Danville, but I'll believe it when I see it. I wait until the Good Greens bag , which contains 10.5-gm of delicious looking popcorn sized buds. Animal Face is by far the best strain, but Soul Mate is running a close second. Modeling simply has become too expensive. I use my creative powers in MSFS now. I get little sim flying, mostly testing liveriers and scenery projects. But I have a good system and use the Pro Version of MSFS2020 Map Enhancement tool ($30.00/yr). The ground textures are so good, you loathe the AI ruining it!

Animal Face strain, Mmmmm good! https://www.puffthemagic.ca/2021/01/30/animal-face-by-carmel/#:~:text=Yes.,“High” is also unique.

Prices for modeling is out of sight now. Years before I retired, I bought everything, sans paint, glue, supplies, to build for years. I know my unbuilt collection will outlive me! I'm stepping up the simming. I just started to mess with repainting. I've been painting since FS98. This is a little more complex, but it's starting to click now. After that, I want to learn how to exclude scenery problems. I HATE taxiing out and finding taxi lights in the middle if the taxiway - trees and bushes on ramps, etc. That absolutely drives me nuts! Thought about this the other day - we've known each other for 30 years now, from the old Hobby USA contests. I left the hobby and went simming, and you followed shortly. We have good hobbies!
 
The base finished installing a few hours ago and I just got home to do the update. 130GB Deluxe upgrade and I bought the Premium also. Note sure when taht upgrade happens.

So here we go more downloading.
 
Getting there. The standard content has downloaded now working on the Deluxe upgrade, Should still have the Premium left to go. 85% downloaded on this one.
 
The suspense is killing me, its like having to wait until next week for the next episode of your favourite programme.
