Austria HD East doesn't install on P3D!!

I can understand that there might not be anything more to be done.. Since I have reinstalled P3D and I have checked the registry entry correctly.. simMarket refuse to refund me the product unless Aerosoft tells them to.. I might need to ask this of you, to give consent of the refund, is that possible to do here? Or to them directly?

Mathijs have a point of course in saying that the installer works for other P3Dv3 users. So it must be something on your system that keeps it from working properly, even though we tried already with faking the needed registry key.

 

If you are still willing to go a bit deeper into this please do the following:

  • end the installer of the add-on if it is currently running
  • download the Sysinternals Process Monitor from the following link
    https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb896645
  • you can directly start the exe file, no setup is needed
  • click on the magnifying glass icon to start capturing
  • start the installer of the add-on
  • forward within the installer to the "select simulator" page
  • switch back to the Process Monitor and click again on the magnifying glass icon to stop capturing again
  • click on the file save icon to save the capture into a .pml file
  • post that file either here or even better send it to me via PM

I just tried another application just for testing now, FlyinsideP3D mod for example.. It was able to find my Prepar3D installation immediatly via the SetupPath.. Other application does not have this problem.. It's only Austria HD East pack that has this problem on my system.. I got that package from simMarket.. Furthermore I tried other applications, like reinstalling ORBX, and also those installers find my P3D setup path immediatly.. Something is fishy here

Hi Mathijs

 

Tom asked me to check for "ATPHD_1608181257.LOG"..  Iopened the log file and the installer finds my Prepar3d v3 just fine. It seems to be a problem with the installer after all.. But I got the installer from simMarket.. Maybe you can direct me to a new installer provided by Aerosoft instead?

 

Attaching the log

ATPHD_1608181257.LOG

Hi guys,

First of all I'm sorry that there are serious issues with my installer, though the recognition of all the different Simulators worked well so far.

I will add the query for the registry keys for 'current user' as mentioned earlier to be on the safe side.

Then it should work too for you keem85 ;-)

 

I will try to fix it quickly but I'm quite busy on finishing my actual scenery project for the western part of Austria, so please be patient with me.

 

Regards,

Heinrich

@Mathijs Kok, can you please forward this to the developers of Austria? The installer obviously finds P3Dv3 in the registry but still doesn't offer to install into it.

Thanks Heinrich.. Can you also add the AppPath string aswell? Seems my HKCU entry ONLY consisted of AppPath, and not SetupPath like in HKLM.

By the way, how can I aquire the correct installer once it's fixed?

Kim,

Did you add the registry key in HKLM by hand as provided by Tom in post #14? That could be the reason why it is found in the log file.

 

I removed it, still it shows the same, that it in fact found the P3D path, but still the options are greyed out:

Just now, Flugwerk said:

I made some corrections in the Setup recently (v 4.2.145), probably it solves your problem.

Can I send you the EXE?

 

Yeah! Send me :) it's alias kimmedim on gmail. Or you can send it here

Shared it via Dropbox. Just replace the exe.

Please let me know the results. :goodluck_s:

 

It worked! Thanks a lot! Might need to send the working installer to simMarket and others alike? In case we need the installer a few years from now :)
