install problem
When I try to install the new beta, it is halted with the following message:
The access to the following file is denied:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\Uninstall.exe
I'm running FSX with WinXP 32 bit.

Re: install problem
Hi Frits,
It seems that you have an Uninstall.exe from another distribution in your FSX folder, and that it is write-protected.
If you have a previous version of Draken installed in FSX you should remove it before installing the beta.
If the uninstaller is from another add-on (not Draken), just move it from the main FSX folder before installing Draken, then either put it back (overwriting the Draken uninstaller) or just keep it in a separate folder. This will not in any way affect the functionality of Draken or any other add-ons.
Anyway, I will change the install path for the Draken uninstaller to avoid conflicts in the future.
Thanks /Tom

Re: install problem
Hi Thomas,
I've been on holiday the last few weeks, hence my late reaction. I uninstalled the previous version and the installer now did the job perfectly.

One of our members just pointed out to me that the VC is positioned somewhat below the cockpit in the exterior model. Odd, since the VC and the exterior model are... Read more... | |
The low resolution of the smaller decals on the fuselage have been bothering me ever since the beginning of the project. The overall exterior texture resolution is rather low, since I... Read more... |
