Can't install. cant even get to where other people get.

[andy]

I tried to upgrade. I should have known better. If it ain't broke don't fix it!

So I tried to install with the new update. Everything looks like the last time I tried to install it but what happens is I open up the config tool to finish the installation and then about 2 minutes in it says dark pro something has encountered an error and needs to close. To make matters worse, i tried to launch FSX and it it said it could not find a valid scenery.cfg. Thank God your installer makes backup copies early in the process. I have FSX working again, so at least that's okay. I tried to just manually re-install the old version. but then it said animan.exe couldn't be found so... it doesn't work. I don't get any airport buildings.

So my question is, are you working on a new installer?

Or are you saying this is what we get an now we have to spend a few hours troubleshooting?

Or is there a place I can find the old installer so I get my scenery back?

Or can you just send me animan.exe?

I have read over all the threads you keep pointing to but I really don't think this is a user problem. I think it's your installer. The old one worked just fine.

Navigate to the following location in the registry:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WOW6432Node\flightscene

make sure mainpath points to the location of the flightscene folder, so that will probably be c:\flightscene unless you chose to install it elsewhere.

Here is the thing, it never installs. It says extracting files... then this happens. It says something about urcbase.dll

I went to the registry the paths are both correct. I want it in the FSX folder and the folder where it currently sits is correct.

Running as admin has made no difference.

Okay somehow I got everything to work just fine and I suspect it's an issue where anytime you chose anything other than C:\Flightscene as an install path. I do not know this for a fact but it seems to at least be part of it.

Here is what I did. Initially I had chosen my FSX folder as the place I wanted to install. That didn't work.

So the key was the registry keys with the path. I went to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\WOW6432Node\flightscene.

In there the paths were correct as far as where the instpath and where the mainpath were pointing to.

On a whim I said. let's just delete the values. So I did and then I restarted.

Then I tried the install process only this time I let it install where it wanted C:\Flightscene.

3 minutes later everything was installed and then I put in my serial number, forced HD textures, then fired up FSX. It gave every indication it was going to work after I clicked "yes I trust this module" 35 times. I did a free flight at NTAA and NTTB everything is back to normal.

Very Strange.

This problem has been fixed with the latest installer when installing outside the c:\flightscene folder.

Just purchased you FLIGHTSCENE - TAHITI AND SOCIETY ISLANDS FSX P3D this afternoon from Simmarket and apparently there are still bugs in the installer.

On launching the configuration tool, I get this error:

Runtime error 9702 – DLL does not exist at line 932

Installer is set to default C:\flightscene
Installed as FSX (single copy of FSX-SE)
No indication that the scenery has installed anywhere I have looked so far. Where would it be if successful, anyway???
It did not, however, delete my scenery.cfg file as previously reported by others. Not yet, anyway.

Any help here?

I am getting the same error as the last post. Tried installing Prepar3D v4 on both windows 7 and 10.

Thanks,

Which anti-virus do you have installed on your system? Also, is tahiti_config_tool.exe in the same folder as module.dll?

Windows Defender Turned Off and I turned Windows Firewall Off after I read your last post. Same error message.

Do you have teamviewer installed? Maybe we can connect so I can troubleshoot on your computer.
