Thanks for the update ! I'm looking forward to the first flight with the new patch....

Hi kroswynd, After installing the 1.025a patch, the aircraft appears to be no longer activated (displays blank, gear retracted etc.). I uninstalled everything and re-installed 1.025 (everything fine), Visual upgrade (still fine) and the patch (again not ok). Is the 1.025 from Simmarket the same as 1.025 from the user area? Best regards, Dirk

Hi Dirk, Exactly the same for me. Displays dark, gear retracted, etc. The first version of the patch did work. The patched patch seems to be problematic.

I installed V1.025 Pro version 64 bit (downloaded from SimMarket) and it works fine (P3DV4.5HF3 on Windows 11 Home edition). But after installing patch 1.025a downloaded from Support User Area, P3D crashes while loading the Q400. Uninstalled Q400 and re-installed : same issue. Currently just running V1.025 without the patch, but I'm now aware of what is incorrect so a fix would be nice !

Is the visual extension installed before or after the patch?

I note that the user page says "version 1.025 full Q400 Download edition only installer for Prepar3D v5.x" ... Please confirm that this installer and the 1.025a patch will work on Prepar3D v4.5 with HF3. Could that be the issue some people here are having with this?

I'm on P3D V5.3, TRAINING Edition of the Majestic Q400. Installed 1.025, plane runs. Installed 1.025a, plane does not run, gear is retracted, all displays blank and will not turn on.

Similar issue to the OP with MJC8Q400_PRO64 when updated with 1.025a on P3Dv5

Yep, I did see your earlier thread here stating you had success with the Q400 patch v1.025 on P3DV4.5 with HF3 (on Windows 11). And others also confirming that it is just the 1.025a patch that appears be the "culprit". Nevertheless, considering Majestic did not mention P3DV4.5 in their subject heading and announcement ... and nor on their User page either ... but did specifically mention P3DV5 ... I thought it warranted asking the question. 👍

I wish I could go back to 1.024. 😢 Never had any problems with it - but unfortunately I deleted the old installer.

We are investigating the issue to try and isolate why the patch is working for some and not others.
