Please note patch is composed of 2 files (data+patched textures). Please use Condor Updater and it will manage it for you.

Hi All,
I have just sent the AA2 0.10 patch to Condor Club, which fixes a problem with forests near Cuneo, Italy, which caused recently a complete crash during a St Ex flight.
The AA2-0.9 patch was missing a forest tile (the 11620.for), which also caused an error in the AA2.fha file.
Even with systematic tests and triple checks at the package, there are still errors...

Until the patch is released and the servers updated, do not launch flights south of Levaldigi!

Hi all,
here is a small patch, which modifies the pylons.
https://drive.google.com/file/d/1xXuW3q ... share_link
They now have different sizes and types depending on the line and the average range.
It's not a revolution but it's more natural and it lightens a bit the very "electrified" areas like some alpine valleys...
For the installation, you have to put the patch in the main AA2 directory and unzip it. It will replace the AA2.obj file and add the modified objects.
No compatibility problem.

Hello

I am interested in trying this update but the link goes to a AA2-zones.bmp download.
I suppose it is not the good one.

Note: If you are experiencing very long loading times when launching the scenery, you can delete all electrical pylons and wind turbines. To do this, simply go to the AA2 directory, delete (or rename) AA2.obj, and rename AA2-PY&WT.obj to AA2.obj.
