I have correct registry entries for P3Dv4.5HF1.....
Ok,
When you mentioned " Presume 'StuPath' is an error? Anyway, change so that you have SetupPath set to 'F:\P3Dv4\' "
I wanted to verify prior to making any changes that that is what FSUIPC was looking for.
Thanks again for confirming. Much appreciated.

You could try editing your registry. Make sure you take a back-up first. Then:
Ignore this.
Presume 'StuPath' is an error? Anyway, change so that you have SetupPath set to 'F:\P3Dv4\'
Thats ok.
You will also need to remove and re-install FSUIPC. To do this, remove the FSUIPC5 entry at HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\FSUIPC5, and manually delete the F:\Modules folder.
If you then re-run the FSUIPC5 installer, it should hopefully find your P3D installation and install in the correct place, as well as correcting your dll.xml file.
Alternatively, maybe uninstalling and then re-installing the P3Dv4 client may correct your registry for you, but I'm not sure on this.
Let me know if you have any issues.
John
John,
Thanks for the additional information on the registry.
Maybe someone with a proper registry for P3Dv4.5HF1 (where their FSUIPC install worked ok) could do a quick check and confirm the suspected bad entry and show what their entry is.

Yes, as Pete said, there is something strange in your installation. However, as you selected the P3Dv4 directory when you installed FSUIPC5, this is the directory that should have been used, so there is also an issue in the FSUIPC5 installer that I will look into. As the original problem is your P3Dv4 installation, it would be better going forward for you first to correct that, then you can re-run the FSUIPC installer to install to the correct place.
I will be releasing a new version later this week (5.152), so I'll correct this installer problem before I release.
John
John,
Thanks for the follow up.
From the information I posted do you happen to know what the problem is with my P3D install and what I could do to correct it?

I found this information on the internet when looking for information on P3D registry data.:
http://drzewiecki-design.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=293
Prepar3Dv4:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4 - key name is "SetupPath"
I do not have this data entry.HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4 - key name is "SetupPath"
Mine is StupPath F:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4 - key name is "AppPath"
Mine is AppPath F:\P3Dv4\...Are these the registry entries that FSUIPC is looking for?
Are they in error on my setup? -

Yes, there's something odd with the way the Installer has formed up the Modules folder path after being told where to find the P3D EXE..
Really the problem here is that P3D is not correctly installed. There's no correct installation entries in the registry. It looks like either P3D has been moved, or Windows has been restored from a time before it was installed.
This will give many add-on programs problems problems. it would be far better for the user to re-install P3d properly.
Pete
Add-on products (aircraft/scenery) that have ask me to point to my p3d install folder have installed ok.
All add-ons and scenery that I have installed are working properly, including FSUIPC, except that FSUIPC installs to the F:\ instead of where I pointed FSUIPC to: F:\p3dv4.

Hello,
I upgraded my OS from WIN7 to Win10 because I got a message from Microsoft advising me the end was nearing for security Updates for Win7 from Microsoft.I ended up resetting the Win10 install because I had problems with some aps and it uninstalled some of my apps.
Now some (not all) aps telling me my registry is not pointing to P3D properly.
So I messed up on my P3D uninstall/reinstalls along the way while learning a new OS.I ended up reinstalling P3Dv4.5HF1 to F:P3Dv4 (previously on my 😄 drive , (was installed there twice).
Currently when I installed FSUIPC and I pointed its installer to my correct P3D install folder F:\P3Dv4.
I am rather sure I got a message from FSUIPC saying there was a problem with the normal P3D location and that FSUIPC could easily correct it and I accepted that.When the FSUIPC install finished I noticed that FSUIPC Modules folder was installed here :
F:\Modules rather than inside F:\P3Dv4\Modules.It is working ok but I thought it would install to my F:\P3Dv4 folder.
Note:
Later when I installed the VRS F18 it asked me where my P3D was installed ... I answered F:\P3Dv4 and it created a Modules folder inside my F:\P3Dv4 path for its data files.So, just wonder how to get the FSUIPC data to normally install to F:\P3Dv4 also?
I copied my FSUIPC log here for a reference:

After I sent you the screenshots I uninstalled / removed FSC9 from my new WIN10 / P3Dv4.fHF1 PC setup.
-
Thanks for the reply.
Previously i was on WIN7 and (FSX and P3Dv4.5) and all ok with FSCommander.
My just now new setup with WIN10 upgrade I had not installed FSX (maybe at futiure date) , just P3Dv4.5HF1.
So, in reading the forum post in the English part (I failed to read the content) I assumed FSC now supporting P3Dv4 (screenshot).
Naturally that was my error.
I ran the DB Manager again and got the screenshot for you.
As always, thanks for answering to my setup error.
-
I have a new WIN10 install with new install of P3Dv4.5 (hot fix1)
Installs at:
F:\P3Dv4
F:\FSC9
I downloaded FSC975 and installed it.
When I run the database manager it finishes instantly after selecting the scenery file location. Like it is not reading and processing data.
Then when I run FSC9 it does not load and tells me to read the FSC_info.log.
I cannot find the log?

FSUIPC 5.121a (P3Dv4) ok here.
-
Same here .. I continued the post in the P3D forum:
http://www.prepar3d.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=6312&t=126680
-
Also noticed my P3Dv4 startup screen changed (FSUIPC v512) to this (screenshot) until I mouse right click the aircraft then the display returns to a normal windowed display:
Changing back to FSUIPC dll 5.113 fixed it.
Note:
I have Win7-64 with KB4038788 installedEdit:
Just for info .. I also use Ezdok which uses the middle mouse button (depressed) to pan the VC .. it is working ok. -
" A parameter greater than 2 does not make any difference at this time. "
Ok, I use FSX, P3Dv3 and P3Dv4 now.
Edit: sometimes I do not Start Flight sim / sometimes I do not use GPS.
I just start FSCommander to do flight plans .. so, wrong database could be used?
Volker .
Thank you for the answer.
Have a good day.

Loading database for P3Dv4
"If you start the program with fsc.exe 0, the databases for FS 2004 will be loaded. If you start the
program with fsc.exe 1, the databases for FS X will be loaded.
If you start the program with fsc.exe 2, the databases for Prepar3D V1/V2 will be loaded.These
parameters override whatever has been chosen in the Options Window. "
Is a choice for P3Dv4 like fsc.exe 3 ? -
" Did you update FSUIPC to 5.103, the version for the HOTFIX? "
Yes, and same errors using the default P3D jet.
-
Just for info:
Lorby-SI AddonOrganizer
The ZIP title is v99 but the exe's file version is still v95.
All working ok in P3Dv3 and v4 as far as I can tell inspecting the output cfg file.
-
Just for info:
FSUIPC 4.959m ok (P3Dv3.4 HF2, FSX Accel. / Win7-64) here (as was 4.959 prior).

Very odd. It usually gives more problems with interaction with other modules when it is loaded early. Is the only thing after it the PMDG HUD? Not sure if your ".." means you omitted other entries.
Pete
It was just example to show top portion.
With every software install or update I check the exe and dll xml.
I move FSUIPC back to the top protion above my addon aircraft e.g.,.. for years now FSX and P3D.
Years ago I had a problem with it at or near the bottom ... never (so far) have I had any problems with it higher up.Here are mine files for FSX and P3D today

"he SimConnectP3D2.DLL should have been deleted by the FSUIPC4 Installer."

Ok,
Thanks for confirming your P3Dv4 registry entry.
As for my wrong registry entry I have no idea how it got there ... I have not edited the registry.
I went back and seen I had made a typo error when posting in the forum.
I should have type SetupPath.
