Hello all
As some may have noticed in the other thread about the Sierra version 1.2 update for the Sierra is now available.
I thought I'd just start a new thread about the 1.2 update as that way anyone glancing through the forums will see the title and realise there is an update available.
VERSION 1.2 update includes the following changes:
- New custom 296 GPS gauge.
- New Trutrak autopilot.
- Reworked lighting system for panel and gauges.
- Hot switchable RPM gauge to select between engine or prop RPM.
- Hot switchable Airspeed gauge to select between knots or km/h.
- New Sierra Setup program to set user preferences.
- 3 new liveries.
- Various other bug fixes (including the rain not sticking to the canopy when at speed and the canopy is open)
If you recently purchased the Sierra (like, within the last day or two) your installer should be called AntsSierraV120.exe which indicates you have version 1.2. To find out what version you have installed just open the Pilot’s Handbook, the version number is written in the header of each page.
HOW TO INSTALL VERSION 1.2
Firstly, you will need to download the new installer (AntsSierraV120.exe or AntsSierra.zip if you bought via simmarket). Log on to your user account at the store you bought the Sierra from. You should then be able to download the new installer file from your user account. If you have installed any repaints then make a note of the FLTSIM entries from the aircraft.cfg. You will need to reenter these FLTSIM entries into the new aircraft.cfg file was the installer has finished installing version 1.2. Now, run the installer (AntsSierraV120.exe) and follow the onscreen instructions. The installer is a complete version of the Sierra and should install directly over the existing version without any problems so there is no need to uninstall any previous version.
At the moment I am sure that simmarket (download name is AntsSierra.zip), fspilotshop and flightsimstore have the new update ready to go. I haven't heard back from the PC Aviator stores yet although I have forwarded them the information.
More information and four new screenshots of the new panel setup are available here:

Now, I'm off to install the new parts in my computer. I may be gone a while :)
