Hi guys, I'm wondering if some of you have time to test a new version of the toolkit.  There are not many changes here except for bug fixes and a new installer.  This very has been tested only very little, so please don't try to use it for actual work just yet.

 

Since it is a new install please make sure to manually UNINSTALL PREVIOUS VERSIONS before installing this one.

Main changes:

- Replaced the installer with one that can properly detect Flight installed to custom Steam library locations.  This also breaks the scenario where you may have both the Steam and GFWL version of Flight installed.  If that is the case, the preview functionality in the tools will only work with the Steam version of Flight.

- Fixed some bugs that would allow you to use invalid characters in the name of addons and liveries which can cause the tools to crash once those addons are installed.

- Fixed the bug that would cause the tool to complain that FileLocator.config.backup already existed.

Is this the Tool which will allow us to install the new aircraft too?

No, I haven't finished that yet.  This just has a new installer and some bug fixes.

I'll test things out if I decide to revert from Windows 8.1 back to RTM 8 in the next few days so that I can actually use Flight.
