Add on liveries for PMDG 747-400 Queen of Skies

[Guest hanslofgren]

I receive the message when I going to run the install . exe file with PMDG's add on liveries:Installation can not continue ... Flight Simulator is not installed.Can some help me to solve this issue?

Sounds like the registry got screwed. Have you got FSX as well as that can do it.Download this handy little tool and all will (hopefully) be fine. http://www.flight1software.com/files/FS_Registry_Repair.exe

On another note, I have a problem with some freeware liveries not displaying at all, or displaying blank textures,although I have added the text file, if supplied, to modify the aircraft.cfg file. I've done this with other addons with no problems. I notice also that some liveries do not come with a text file.Any hints on how I can create or correct these problems?Any suggestions welcome.Ron

Ron,Make sure the model= line is correctly set. As for the 744s, there are three different models, one for each engine types (GE, PW and RR). This could be the cause of some textures not displaying. Pay a particular attention to the texture= entry also. Any typo there would cause a blank aircraft.Now, if you dont have any .txt file included with the feeeware repaints (and I feel guilty since I've just uploaded at avsim a repaint without any .txt file), simply copy and paste the previous [fltsim.x] entry in your .cfg file, and modify the few lines that need to be modified - again, make sure the model= and texture= file are correct.Hope this helps.

Thanks Arnaud, I will try to figure out what the error is, by the way thanks for the texture, I don't have the talent or patience, but I appreciate those who do.Regards.Ron
