Following yesterday’s release of the Deltawing ATR 72-600 for X-Plane 12, demand for the SkunkCrafts Updater is currently rising. The reason for this is that an error occurred, meaning that only an outdated version of the aircraft was available in the store, rather than the intended release candidate. In this Facebook post, Deltawing Simulations therefore recommends using the SkunkCrafts Updater to obtain the latest version of the add-on.
But many are now wondering: what exactly is the SkunkCrafts Updater and how do I get hold of it?
The SkunkCrafts Updater is widely used within the X-Plane community. It is a client that makes it very easy to update installed X-Plane add-ons from a central location. It is supported by numerous payware developers.
Obtaining and installing the SkunkCrafts Updater
Getting hold of the SkunkCrafts Updater is really simple: just download the latest version from the X-Plane.org forum.Once downloaded, simply open the file; installed add-ons will be detected automatically.
Now just click the ‘Check all updates’ button at the top; the programme will search for available updates and download them. Then simply click the ‘Install all’ button next to it – and the updates will be installed straight away.
