With 6.1XX I am getting some pretty strange coloring. For example when there is a red tinged sky at sunset everything including the ground objects have a strong red tinge. other times it can be yellow.

Re: Update to 6.1XX
I redownloaded again, ran the new download and then it would abort starting the sim.
So, I ran the repair function and it seems all is well now.
Thanks for the responses.

Re: Update to 6.1XX
Greetings,
The cont1.cab is present in the download after extracting.
My C drive has 700+ gigs free.
My D drive where V6 is installed has 1.1+ TB free.

Thanks.

More than one computer?
I have been using P3dV4 on my laptop for some time. I recently bought a desktop computer and wish to install P3d on it as well. Am I permitted to do this as I will not be using both machines at the same time or is a 2nd purchase required? Thanks.
