[Problems installing FSUIPC4 in P3D]

Hi Pete

I don't seem able to locate a FSUIPC.KEY file anywhere?

Hi Pete have checked the date on the PC and ensured that all 3 parts of the registration are an exact match when prompted on install (which is what I meant rather than download) and all are definitely okay. Log file below for you:

[Problems installing FSUIPC4 in P3D]

Hi Pete

Quick update: Yes you are correct, My P3D is located in SetupPath=C:\Program Files (x86)\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\ and the DLL file (as well as the DLL2 that I created as per our test earlier) are found in C:\Users\Matthew Ralph\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v3\.

There were no files in the modules folder yesterday so I obtained the log by trying to re-install and copying straight from the log upon install. However taking a look today this does appear to have installed FSUIPC into P3D, the files do now appear in the 'FSUIPC Install' text doc (shown below). I did enter the registration details when downloading FSUIPC on this occasion but the options in the program still appear to be locked.

Hi Pete

Many thanks for the reply. Strangely when I look in the modules folder there is a folder called FSUIPC Documents which is empty and that's it however upon installation the log says at the bottom that it has been successfully loaded into the modules folder. I took a look at the DML.XML and renamed it DML2 and tried a reinstallation but it didn't appear to create a fresh DLL file and the folder still only shows the renamed DLL2.

As always your help is very much appreciated

Kind regards

 

 

[Problems installing FSUIPC4 in P3D]

After getting a new PC I have converted from FSX to P3D and am in the process of setting up everything up however I am having problems with FSUIPC4. I purchased the registered version and all downloaded okay and I then try and register which also appears to work. The files appear in the P3D/Modules folder but when I start the sim it doesn't appear under 'Add Ons'. I have had a look at the log and at the bottom it says 'Registration of FSUIPC4 was cancelled or failed - Result code 10'. I have tried re-registering and is appears to go through ok but still nothing in the sim. Before registering the product I did have the unregistered version appearing under 'add ons'. Any advice would be gratefully received.

 

Many thanks
