Work in Progress disclaimer
Our open beta allows you to test our latest features and fixes before they are officially released.
Install at your own risk, this is a Work in progress version and you acknowledge that you may encounter issues or crashes. Although we have been testing this version for months and it should already be very stable!
How do I participate?
Full information can be found on the official Open Beta Program page
Any E-Jets Family customer can use the SkunkCrafts Updater to access the beta channel of the E-Jets.
The updater allows you to access the beta versions, or backroll to the last stable version in seconds.
Make sure you see a skunkcrafts_updater_beta.cfg file in your E-Jets product folder. If not, please run the updater to get it.
You will have to reactivate your aircraft every time you try a new version. If you run out of activations, please send me a private message here with your activation key and I will add more to your account
Please watch the video below that explains how to download the beta version:
POSSIBLE ERRORS WHILE TRYING TO DOWNLOAD USING THE UPDATER
The updater might be showing you an old version of the aircraft. It might also show you a red error message about the configuration file missing or something similar.
WHAT IS CAUSING THIS?
In December 2023 we had to change our servers where the Open Beta files are stored and your issue is likely caused by you still having the old configuration file.
HOW TO FIX IT:
Step 1:
Option 1: You can either delete the aircraft and redownload it from the store. This will give you the latest configuration files.
Option 2: You can manually delete the old skunkcrafts_updater_beta.cfg file, then run the updater (with the beta channel disabled). This will then download the latest config file for you.
Step 2:
Once you finished one of the two options above, you can re-enable the beta channel and update to the open beta version as explained in the video above.
