We shipped Service Pack 2 for Flight Simulator X on Friday. (Get the downloads from fsinsider.com; see Phil Taylor’s blog entries for more details.) Service Pack 2 contains the same set of fixes as in Acceleration, without Acceleration’s new aircraft or missions.
Hello, Ive tried downloading the Patch from the MS website, but the file doesn't seem to be there, or the site is experiencing problems. Can anybody point me to a download for the file, i'd like to have it downloaded ready for when i get the game on Monday.

We’re seeing a common problem come up: A message from the installer: “Microsoft Flight Simulator X Service Pack 2 requires the English version of Flight Simulator X.”
So far, the immediate cause is the same: missing data in the registry. During testing, the root cause was also the same: Copying the installed files from another partition or machine rather than using the installer. That’s not officially supported, of course, but given the size of Flight Simulator, it’s fairly common to want to move the installed files (to a bigger partition, for example) without reinstalling.
Service Pack 2 requires the registry data that the original RTM and SP1 installers write. (It uses the data in the registry to find the installation directory and the language.dll file. It checks the version information in language.dll to make sure it has the same language as the SP2 installer; otherwise, you’d end up with a broken mix of localized content.)
Unfortunately, the original RTM installer doesn’t rewrite those registry values when you do a repair, so what works is to uninstall and reinstall RTM, then SP1, then SP2.

That said, here’s a shortcut. Note that it involves editing the registry, which can be hazardous to your computer’s health. If you don’t feel comfortable doing this, uninstall and reinstall is a safe choice.
- Start RegEdit.
On 32-bit operating systems, open the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftmicrosoft gamesflight simulator10.0key in the left pane.On 64-bit operating systems, open the
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREWow6432NodeMicrosoftMicrosoft GamesFlight Simulator10.0key in the left pane.Choose Edit|New|String Value.
Replace
New Value #1by typingSetupPath.Double-click
SetupPathand in the Value data box, type the full directory path where you installed or copied Flight Simulator X.
The SP2 installer should then be able to find language.dll and verify that it’s the right language for the version of SP2 you’re trying to install.
That’s the only common problem we’ve seen – as of today, anyway. I’ll update this blog entry with additional items if/when they come up.
Update #1, 17-Dec-07: Added registry key for x64 OSes.
