August 29, 20178 yr Hi all, For a bgl compile tool I need to have the FSX SDK isntalled. I have the DeLuxe Edition. However I do not have FSX installed as I use P3Dv4. When trying to install the FSX SDK I am getting an InstallShield error 1607.... Help is appriciated. Gerard Update : Finally I was able to install by renaming Program Files (x86) / Common Files / InstallShield folder and let Windows make a new one... 5950x3d 5.4-5.7 GHz - Asus ROG 870 Crosshair Apex - GSkill Neo 2x 24 Gb 6000 mhz / cas 26 - MSI RTX 5090 Gaming Trio OC - 1x SSD M2 6000 2TB - 1x SSD M2 2800/1800 1Tb - Corsair 5400 case - Corsair 360 liquid cooling set - 3x 75’ TCL tv. 13600 6 cores @ 5.1 GHz / 8 cores @ 4.0 GHz (hypterthreading on) - Asus ROG Strix Gaming D - GSkill Trident 4x Gb 3200 MHz cas 15 - Asus TUF RTX 4080 16 Gb - 1x SSD M2 2800/1800 2TB - 2x Sata 600 SSD 500 Mb - Corsair D4000 Airflow case - NXT Krajen Z63 AIO liquide cooling - FOV : 200 degrees My flightsim vids : https://www.youtube.com/user/fswidesim/videos?shelf_id=0&sort=dd&view=0
August 29, 20178 yr Sounds about right Gerard, without FSX SP1 - SP2 or Acceleration installed first, I doubt the installer can create the entries in the FSX.cfg or dll.xml, nor can it locate the Folder/File structure of a working FSX installation. FSX SDK is a multipart installation first for SP1 and then for SP2 / Acceleration. I believe you will need to install FSX / SP1 / SP2 or Acceleration, to get it installed properly, you will need to make sure you have run FSX SP1 SP2 or Accel at least once prior to installing the SDK/s and activated for each SP you will need to open Start the sim and load a flight to enable the [Trusted] dll's added to your FSX.cfg & dll.xml you will then be able to confirm that the FSX menu bar shows the SDK tools and that they work when selected. I remember David (Opa Marshall)(deceased - God rest his wings) did a very good tutorial on the SDK installation, either here at AVSIM or Flightsim forum. You might need to search for it as I can't remember the link or topic name. SDK installation procedure FSDev http://www.fsdeveloper.com/wiki/index.php?title=SDK_Installation_(FSX) Cheers Jethro
