The new "plus" version of REX Essential has been released, although whenever I've tried to download, it seems as though the servers are down, I'll keep trying thought!

Bushpilot, have you managed to download it yet?

Ian.

**bushpilot** · November 6th, 2012, 01:00

Haven't tried yet. From previous REX upgrades, I've learned to wait till the dust settles. Much less frustrating.

Good news, I dearly hope that they eradicated some bugs in the update that bothered me in the previous version...

Cheers,
Mark

Yes Montie, I'm having to use the German link, but mines a little faster, 51/2 hours.

I used the cloud download; Completed in 27 minutes.

**bully707** · November 6th, 2012, 06:38

So I'm not the only one encountering problems...

Guess I'll just wait a bit longer

No problems here with the American server. Got mmy update in 5 hours time and now up flying. Huge gains in the WX time and downloading the WX. Performance in the Canadian Arctic has greatly improved and I have a good view of a Phase 3 Blow TO from CYZF.

**aircav1970** · November 6th, 2012, 07:54

Well,as of 09:50 Mountain time all the links are down due to massive overload so I guess I'll be waiting for a while too.....

I have resorted to the Torrent download from their server see this thread

That is the "old" Overdrive for REX2 not for Essential...

By the looks of it Simmarket is selling REX Essential Plus with Overdrive, so maybe those that bought REX2/Essential through them have an alternative download service there.

**Dain Arns** · November 6th, 2012, 09:50

I'm downloading the update for my version right now.
It's slow, but should be done in a few hours.

Can't reach any of their servers right now; guess I'll have to try again in a few days..

It took a loooong time to access the file on the server to start the download.

**aircav1970** · November 6th, 2012, 14:15

4:15 pm here in Arizona,have tried to get on one of their servers every couple of hours since this morning and can't so I guess I'll give it a few days also....
