    Steam did an update and now Areofly appears to not work.

    Can anyone else confirm the same?

    Version is 2.0.1 EA3.66 and it brings the F-15 Strike Eagle into the Mix.

    F-15... without motion... :( @value1 :p :sos

    Areofly 2 is part of the SimTools 2 plugin list, so it would be likely that is the version @value1 would look to update, not the 1.3 version.

    Ah ok. Damn.. New York DLC just got released and itching to play it. It's the vomit comet without motion :)

    Assume Simtools 2.0 is just around the corner?

    @yobuddy has consistently said SimTools 2.0 will be ready when it is ready, though he has started on the move from Beta to Release Candidate builds.

    The reality is that Soon™ is somewhat of an industry standard ;): https://gaming.stackexchange.com/questions/23112/where-did-soon-originate#23156

    Or its just me dyeing to release it and always having one more thing to do! lol
    Honestly guy's, its just been hard to line up schedules and poor @eaorobbie has been hard at work on the almost finished new manual.
    We still need someone to update the onsite manual too.
    So it all just takes time.

    We all do really appreciate all the hard work...and SimTools 2.0 is well and truly worth the wait.

    Hi guys, I puchased Aerofly FS2 on Steam.
    So I wanted to use the newest Plugin for SimTools 2.something.
    I downloaded the .zip-File and draged still compressed to the profile Installer.
    I tried in Manager and in GameEngine.
    I tried the plugin version with the 5Stars too.

    BUT all I get is this ...

    Does anyone know how to help with that?
    Thanx in advance,
    Yours ART FLY

    Are you closing SimTools and using the PluginUpdater app to install the plugin: https://www.xsimulator.net/community/faq/how-to-install-plugins.310/
