Blueb Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 I downloaded the new 2.0 updates for the BN-2B (reg and turbo). Thanks for this.. it is appreciated. A small thing... I do not have/use RealSimGear stuff (G5 and G500), but the install package included both versions in my system. I went to the menu, and it displayed 3 choices for the Bn-2B-26 and 3 choices for the BN-2T Islanders. Looking at the icons, it is not really obvious which is which. (if you linger, the tooltip will display the highlighted ACF file) I really don't have a problem with this.. it just clutters my selection page, for no good reason. What I did was remove both G500 folders and all the G5 files in each plane and stored them in a TEMP% folder. I gained 3.48 GB of space on my SSD, and my selection noew shows one of each BN-2B (reg and turbo). No big deal for me... but some users may need all the space they can get. Perhaps the installation should ask the user if the use: 1- G5 equipment 2- G500 equipment and skip the files that are not needed. Just a thought. PS - Both models look and fly great. Thanks again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cameron Posted July 4, 2023 Report Share Posted July 4, 2023 This is conciously done this way and I don't think we'll be changing it. Your suggestion is essentially how it was done before, and maintaining four installers for various scenarios (BN2B, BN2T, G5, and G500) gets very complicated not only for us, but also the customer should they later want those options. I won't bore you with all the scenarios a customer could get "stuck" in with regards to all of this, but I'll leave it at the fact that this is a much cleaner solution to many problems. That said, you bring up a good point on not being able to discern which is which, so we should probably make that more obvious in the icons. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
