No longer posible, now vía the installer or directly in their discord server
Have you updated everything in the Content Manager too? Depending on your version, there will be updates in there too to be done.

For me everything was smooth with DX12.
Could you be more specific? What are your specs, community content, etc.
Thanks, good call. I usually only go there for World Updates
Yeah, the marketplace via Steam has never worked for me. Just recently tried again buying something small. Money deducted from account, went to Steam, converted to sim credits and used. In the sim: Purchase failed.
I’m hoping the world updates included in content manager updates fix the autogen problems in the UK and other areas

Do you noticed differences to DX11?
Hmm beware, a lot of settings have been turned on again, from unlimited fuel to all piloting assists and notifications.

Went smooth so far. Only thing I noticed is the HUD is now back on by default and you have to disable it under Assistance options. And all assistance options were reset to Easy.

Beta testing is the only way to get a lot of data very quickly. Then we together will make DX12 more stable. Toggle on, report issue, toggle off. Little work, lots of thanks from the community.

Interesting that Reno is shown as reduced from £394.99 to £49.99
I guess that’s the full fat price if you paid for every aircraft separately!

Not much, I have to say. Honestly I only flew DX12. So I need to do a comparison flight coming weekend.
The first 100 entries in this thread is who has the update and who doesn’t ^^… but for me the best thing guys, there is haze now. It is glorious.
Also ground handling seems vastly improved.
This looks so real now… I am speechless

VR users, what’s up with the VR controllers? Any feedback so far? Is it cool?
Interesting, I did not have the same experience. In MS Store it opened up the XBox app where I then used the update button there.
Black friday’s already here 
@Jummivana
Just a suggestion to streamline things. Couldn’t we have a separate official topic for installation issues of the new build, one for DX12 and one for the rest of Goty?

So, for me, the update process went relatively smoothly aside from a CTD halfway through. However, I find it a bit frustrating as the bug that they’ve mentioned in the release notes about not being able to interact with the menu in VR is (at least for me) all the time. It also means I can’t close any windows that pop up when I start a flight, so I have to have a big blue window in front of me all the time.
I’m sure there’ll be various things I can turn off in the settings to get around this for now, but there are other issues with control in VR now… I just couldn’t switch out of VR mode with the usual Ctrl & Tab combo and I couldn’t reset the view either. I had to Esc to the menu, exit VR, reset the view and then re-enter VR. I appreciate that implementing the VR controllers is really cool and quite a technical acheivement but I’m a little disappointed with the update so far.
I’m even more disappointed that I’m disappointed, as thus far, I believe MS/Asobo have done an incredible job with the product and updates (despite all the hiccups); it’s a superbly complicated bit of software which, for the most part, works well. I’m sure they’ll iron out the issues soon so I can get back to flying!

No it’s definitely broken. If you try to steer left and right with pushback the plane doesn’t move to the left and right.
Also you can’t use mods on Xbox.
For me DX12 is one big stutter fest. Back to DX11 it is kind of normal, but I have the feeling there is a lot, lot more microstuttering.
