Version 4 Upgrade - Newbie

[nicea]

Hello all

I have a registered version 4.4.

Can I upgrade to version 4.50 for free?

If so, can I just install 4.50 on top of 4.4 and it will overwrite what it needs to and retain my valid registration?

Regards

Tony

I have a registered version 4.4.

Can I upgrade to version 4.50 for free?

Yes. In fact you are expected to, because I cannot support old versions. There are only two current versions of FSUIPC -- FSUIPC3 and FSUIPC4. When you purchase the registration you get lifetime support and upgrades for that main version (that's FSUIPC's lifetime, not yours! ;-) ).

If so, can I just install 4.50 on top of 4.4 and it will overwrite what it needs to and retain my valid registration?

Yes, it retains all your settings and registration.

After installing 4.50 you may want to replace the DLL itself by the latest interim update, supplied in the "Updates" Announcement at the top of this forum. Browse through the list of changes there to see if any affect you. Interim updates usually just contain a revised DLL which you just copy directly into the FSX modules folder.
