Community folder MSFS2020 and last FSUIPC 7.5.4


Recommended Posts

hello,

When I install the latest version, why FSUIPC is determining my community folder:

Community folder is: C:\Users\Carlos\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Package\Community\
It shoud be:

Community folder is: C:\Users\Carlos\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\Community\
Sincerely,

Carlos

The Community folder location is taken from the InstalledPackagesPath entry in your UserCfg.opt file (usually the last line) - what is the value there?

Where was the WASM actually installed? Does the folder C:\Users\Carlos\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Package\ exist as well?

I can’t check right now InstalledPackagespath in UserCfg.opt. (maybe later at night)

WASM was installed in C:\Users\Carlos\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Package\. The folder exist, what I don’t know is, if it existed before FSUIPC install.

I noticed this because I use rsFirstOfficer for Microsoft Flight Simulator | MSFS, and after updating FSUIPC the checklvars wasn’t working.

All my other mods are stored in C:\Users\Carlos\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages\,

 Sincerely

 Carlos

I don't think FSUIPC will create this folder, but not 100% sure.

The FSUIPC installer reads the InstalledPackagesPath entry/line, then removes the first 23 characters (i.e. the characters 'InstalledPackagesPath "', then removes the last two characters, which should be the closing quotes and the new line character. Maybe there is no new line after your InstalledPackagesPath entry? If not, then the last character of the path will be removed.
So, check there is a new line after the 
InstalledPackagesPath entry.

This is obviously not ideal - I will correct the installer for the next release to actually check for the new line and only remove if present.

Let me know what your entry looks like when you get a chance.

Regards,

John

InstalledPackagesPath "C:\Users\Carlos\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Packages"

Did a copy and paste from  my UserCfg.opt

Ok. I have corrected the installer for this and will make this available tomorrow (no new version). So either add a new line and re-install, or wait until tomorrow, download the updated installer and try again.

This is available now....you may need to clear your browser cache to get the updated installer.

Please let me know if that solves your issue.
