Update for products especially YSSY

[5a_49_4f_4e]

Hello everyone,

I'm really interested how you all keep updated your scenery? I'm on P3Dv5 with some FlyTampa scenery and don't know how to update YSSY for example. Just now I visited the FlyTampa site and saw that 2.0 is released, but how do I get it? I always try to purchase direct from the FlyTampa site. When I purchased YSSY I got a file named "FlyTampa_Sydney_FSX_P3D_12.exe" and for upgrading to P3Dv5 I downloaded the "FlyTampa_Sydney_Update_P3Dv5.exe" from the 'Prepar3DV5 Compatibility' thread by martin. I also found a file called "FlyTampa_Sydney_FSX_P3D.dat" in the folder where I store my purchased installers and updates.
So I think because YSSY is not supported by the universal installer I don't know how to get this update.

And do you have tips how I can check the versions of other scenery and know when I have to update them for the future?

Thanks!

Kind regards :)

Sydney V2 is now supported by the universal installer. It'll show you the version number and changelog when you run it. No need for any patches or updates.

Thanks for your fast reply!

I tried it with the universal installer I've just downloaded but it doesn't accept my serial number. The number must be correct because I did a screenshot of it when I purchased Sydney.

Did you buy the upgrade for V2?

+1 to this, the universal installer is not accepting my serial

My apologize, maybe I got something completely wrong. So the v2 update is a chargeable one? First I thought it would be free for all YSSY owners.

What are the benefits of the new version for "old YSSY" owners in comparison?
