Service Pack 1 Is NOW AVAILABLE!!

[Corey]

First and foremost, a huge THANK YOU for the patience that the vast majority of you have exercised since December 6th of last year. That patience, support and loyalty that you have shown has made it MUCH easier for us to go about or business. In addition, we'd also like to give a special thanks to our Beta testers for their efforts during SP1!

With that said, we are proud to announce the release of SP1 for your Ultimate 757 Collection! It is now available for download on the Website (Service Packs). the process should be an easy transition for current customers as the installer will perform the uninstallation for you! Your liveries will need to be reinstalled, but the new included Livery/load manager Version 1.5 supports multiple livery installs. More information on the Service pack is available in our FAQs section:
viewtopic.php?f=2&t=215

The Support Forum has been reorganized to accomodate any issues you may encounter post Sp1. For those users who are still using Pre Sp1...PLEASE STOP lol.
We urge you to take 5 minutes to read the release notes!!!!!!!!!!
