Alas, another Install Problem... :(

[KH320Capt]

Hi,  bought registered copy and installed.   Alas, no add-on option showing in FSX (steam).    Prepar3d never installed as lockheed changed the directory to have a space between "Lockheed" and "Martin" and the log file shows it searching for a path with "LockheedMartin".    Regardless, I have tried to read some of the posts and I am not having any success.  BTW... when I first installed it,  FSX was crashing until I added  FSUIPC_Loader.dll        Not making any progress on getting it working (install to Prepar3d and not showing add-on in FSX)   Help!

First versions:

FSX steam edition  10.0.62615.0

Prepar3d vc    3.3.5.17625   (Simconnect 3104125)

 

1. The Lockheed Martin thing caused a different registry path entry to the installer did not find it so I hope you can help with that.

2. I am thinking the problem with FSX Steam is also a path thing.   I included the dll.xml file below that is in the  USERS > MYNAME > APPDATA > ROAMING > MICROSOFT > FSX 

folder but a search on dll.xml located a file in Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\ConfigData\appdata    which was not modified to start FSUIPC4     Is it the cause of the problem?  I will include this as a copy of that file renamed Steam_dll.xml in case it helps.    Thanks.

 

Log files attached. 

Thanks for your help!

BTW    My FSUIPC file is labled as 4.8.5.3 and this was donwloaded from the official site where I bought the license.

>> Installer for FSUIPC4.DLL version 4.853

That's an old version. You should download the latest installer.

Thanks.  Odd that I got the old one from the official site...   What is current, and where can I find it please.   Thanks.

Never Mind...  I guess when I went to the site when you purchase it they sent an old file.  I see the link about where I bought the registered copy with the right version.  Trying to download now.  Guess this means I have to remove everything first???  Or can I re-run installer without deleting modules folder and such?

THANK YOU!!!   Hours of scratching the head and reading files.   All is well.  Thanks Again!!!

No. The Installer searches for ALL versions of P3D, so it looks for both! You aren't reading the Install log correctly.

Well, 4.853 doesn't support P3D version 3 at all! It is very old.

There are no files on the site where the license is purchased, there's only a link to the Schiratti site where there's a link to my files here, and they are most certainly up do date!

Just re-run the installer.
