Hopefully a fix that makes P3Dv5 work properly on AMD computers!

Source is the LM website. No hint at all.

Well, the post I answered to has just... disappeared :shock:

OK. Well, I won't be surprised to learn that yet another LM update has little impact on the Academic users.

The website is live: https://flightsimassociation.com.

It's apparently a $30 per year sub to get access to discounts, webinars and guides. I think if you buy a lot of addons from let's say ORBX, the discounts alone will quickly pay back those 30 bucks but other than that I haven't explored it enough to know if it's worth it.

There's a 30-day free trial if you're interested.

I imagine it took a lot of work to set up, and it probably feels pretty 'big' to those who were involved, but I suspect its impact will be limited. For example, the 10% discount on Orbx products requires you to buy $300 of product before you benefit from the deal, yet most Orbx products have been discounted far deeper to the general public in the last week or so, and will be again - usually about 5 or 6 times a year.

I was just about to post something similar to what you wrote. Simmarket has sales all the time. Right now there are 6 pages of P3D v4-v5 titles on sale.

A bit of a damp squib as far as I'm concerned.
