John Dowson 0 Posted November 25, 2021 Share Posted November 25, 2021 When installing the CRJ Pro for P3Dv5, I got an error message at the end of the installation procedure about something to do with P3Dv4 (which I also have), although I can't remember the exact message now. I haven't installed the CRJ in P3Dv4. This resulted in the add-on.xml not being created. I therefore manually created this, using an add-on.xml file found under the CRJ installation folder, moving this to a documents/Prepare3d v5 Add-ons/Aerosoft CRJ Pro v5 folder and updating the paths to the xml file accordingly. Doing this, I can now see the CRJs in P3Dv5. However, when I load a CRJ I cannot seem to get any power, although I'm not sure if this is an installation issue or because I do not know this aircraft and cannot get the power started. The engines seem to be running, but no power is available. I then tried to uninstall using the uninstaller created under the Prepar3D v5 Add-ons folder (why is this not under the Aerosoft CRJ Pro v5 folder?), but when I run that it says "ERROR: Missing log file!!" and I cannot continue. If I re-run the installer, it shows the following settings , which don't seem correct (it has taken my MSFS installation folder as my P3Dv5 installation folder): Quote Lockheed Martin PREPAR3D V5.x D:\MSFS2020\ CRJ Professional D:\Prepar3D v5 Add-ons\Aerosoft CRJ Pro v5 Aerosoft Updater C:\Users\jldow\OneDrive\Documents\Aerosoft\ASUpdater Aerosoft Livery Installer C:\Users\jldow\OneDrive\Documents\Aerosoft\LiveryInstaller ApplicationData User (config files): C:\Users\jldow\OneDrive\Documents\ Windows-Font folder: C:\WINDOWS\Fonts\ Replace fonts Shortcuts folder: C:\Users\jldow\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\aerosoft - CRJ Professional - PREPAR3D V5.x Please advise on how I can uninstall and install again correctly. Thanks, John P.S. I also have the MSFS Aerosoft CRJ installed, without issues. P.P.S. Seems to be in a "cold and dark" state, with the yoke locked and no power. However, engines are running - I can apply thrust using the F2,3,4 keys and the aircraft moves, although the throttle in the UI doesn't move to reflect this. Cockpit is very dark and difficult to see anything....I need access to the EFB which I can't seem to get.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowson 0 Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 Also, since installing this aircraft on P3Dv5, my MSFS installation seems to have gone haywire...when I load any aircraft the default cockpit view is now continually slowly panning for the first 5 minutes or so, and I cannot stop this or do anything... Running the ASUpdater shows the following: Quote Regular as well as experimental updates are available for installation Microsoft Flight Simulator found: (D:\MSFS2020) Prepar3D 5.x (<removed>) found: (D:\MSFS2020\) Prepar3D 4.x (4.5.14.34698) found: (D:\Prepar3D v4\) Flight Simulator X Steam (10.0.62615.0 (FSX.20150710-1055)) found: (D:\Steam\steamapps\common\FSX\) Again the P3Dv5 installation folder shows my MSFS installation? And under Installed Products, I only see the CRJ550/700 for MSFS. Could I please get some advice on how to rectify this issue. Thanks, John Later: just realized something...could it be because I am not using P3D v5.2? Cannot say which version I am currently running unfortunately....

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted November 26, 2021 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted November 26, 2021 It is impossible that installing an add-on into P3Dv5 does anything with MSFS, totally separated system with totally separated files, no interaction or shared items. Please run the attached tool and post the out put here, so that we can get some details on your sim environment. ASVersionInfo_1102.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

John Dowson 0 Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 This seems to be the problem: Quote Prepar3D v5.x (<removed>) found at: D:\MSFS2020\ It is taking MSFS as my P3Dv5 installation folder. Could this not have messed up my MSFS installation? John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Dowson 0 Posted November 26, 2021 Author Share Posted November 26, 2021 If this issue is due to the P3D version I am currently using I can understand this and can wait until my version is approved for this product. However, I would like to know how to roll-back what has been installed, if possible, as the installation of this product in P3Dv5 does seem to have affected my MSFS installation, and it does seem like the installer is doing something to my MSFS install as it is the folder in which it thinks p3Dv5 is installed, which is not the case, obviouisly.

John Dowson 0 Posted November 30, 2021 Author Share Posted November 30, 2021 I have now resolved my issues. Looks like they were due to the P3Dv5 version I was using... All Ok now. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
