Install Probs with Plan-G and P3D V2.2

[tim arnot]

You have set the location for BOTH the P3D exe file and the scenery.cfg? If there's no entry for the exe, it won't enable the checkbox.

Hi

Yes both are set, but still greyed out??

I have tried pointing to scenery.cfg in both the C:drive under appdata/roaming etc and also (to test) under the P3D location where it is installed on a separate drive! In either case P3D option greyed out. It wasn't greyed out under 3.1 strangely.

Hi Tim

I have just installed version 3.1.1.92 and it now works perfectly, thank you.

Hi Tim

I may be repeating someone else's issue here and missed it earlier. Sorry if that's the case.

Just downloaded 3.1.192 and attempted to build P3D Database. P3D exe and scenery.cfg set up in advance. The build goes through the motions but then apparently hangs with the progress bar still cycling. I left it 12 hours but nothing happened! Any thoughts?

Cheers
ian

[tim arnot]

It should take no more than 5 or 10 minutes, tops.

Please attach the log file, and we'll see what stalled it.

[iangbusa]

Hi Tim
Attaching log file. I think it looks just fine but didn't end and exit from the loop properly?
ian

[tim arnot]

Well the log seems to suggest it successfully completed the build after 3 minutes, so I don't know what happened there, other than some glitch maybe where it didn't close the dialog. Not something I've come across before.

[iangbusa]

Thanks, Tim. Sounds like I can probably just close the dialog manually (or the app if I can't close the dialog) and the database will be fine. I'll give it a try.
