Hi Chris,

 

Good news indeed.

 

Can you please explain a bit more about the improved performance and.........

 

Will NE be available for P3D V5 and if so will it be included in current support fees or will there be an extra cost?

 

Thanks very much.

 

Keep safe and well.

 

Dave

[+Chris Bell 1,341]

Hello Dave
Yes NE will be available for V5.0!
it remains to be seen how will the update for v5.0 will transpire which will dictate our decisions down the road
FYI in our terms your current support subscription entitles you to automatic 50% off the next version release regardless (not referring to update revisions within the same build!)
you asking us to disclose our secret grandma performance sauce?

Hey, Chris,

 

I need to renew multiple product support licenses so I can download these updates. Is there a way for me to combine them and pay one bill or do I need to purchase each renewal separately?

 

Thanks!

i believe you should be able to add to cart first?
in case you have issues contact shop support to see if we can help from there,

I guess I am 😱      No actually, it's just I'm wondering if it's worth installing the updates since my sim looks great at night already and it'll cost me $100.00 give or take to pay for the upgrade. If the Grandma performance sauce makes a BIG difference it might be worth considering. 

See attached picture taken with my phone from my home cockpit. Black Marble, NE & extended lighting. Not the greatest photo but you get the point I'm sure 😉

 

Regards

Dave

[+Chris Bell 1,341]

Thank you Dave that is gorgeous! 
generally speaking we dont disclose technical information of our work,
in a none technical manner taking your case as example you will see gains as well as improved integration between NE and BM in these overlapping areas,
our improved integration will translate to overall performance gains especially in areas mixed with BM or Orbx lights,

welcome to our forums Moath
Aerosoft version is not ours, we developed it for Aerosoft they own the right to these titles,
the past few years we are publishing under different publisher unrelated to Aerosoft,
we developed since new Night Environment line available from our shop

There is no download link for the v1.9.5 Installer but the purchasing file for full price?

Is there no update option for registered users of a previous release?

 

Thank you in advance for supporting...

Hallo, leider kann ich das Update 1.9.5 nirgends herunterladen, ohne nochmals zu bezahlen.

welcome to our forums Marcus,
if you purchased Night Environment from our store, please see last response above your post,

[marcus3436 0]

Ich hebe die Version schon 2015 im Store SimMarket erworben.

[+Chris Bell 1,341]

same still applies, these were Aerosoft titles at the time not CDS,

[+jhaley101 72]

Hello Chris, are these North American titles for P3d v5?    The installer at the purchase page includes a v5, but the product page only shows v4

 

Any issue with running them with UTX? 

 

How about performance degradation?

 

What advantage is there to these products if you already have the full BM product line?

 

I think I'll start with Canada first.    Oh wait, there is no Canada here or with the roadmap for the NG product line.    😞

these will override an existing photoreal night layer like TE and much more is described on announcement page here,

we only published this years road map!

[+jhaley101 72]

What if you have no photoreal night layer, such as TE.     Is still going to be an improvement with P3d v5, with UTX and all of the BM product?   I can't quite find the assurance I'm needing.  

 

What does NG offer that these older versions dont?
