PTA v2.63 P3D v4.4 ERROR

[itay5344 6]

I just upgraded PTA to v2.63 to support the new P3D version v4.4.

I tried to install some of the shaders from PTA but I got a error message.

ERROR message: "Applying preset D:\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D Addons Installers\PTA v2.63\Itay.ini...

What do I have to do ?

Thanks Itay

Running PTA as administrator will usually fix that.

If I run the PTA as administrator I get the error:

I tried to delete the file ShaderHLSL, but if I do it I can't click on "APPLY preset".

And I got the message: Preset D:\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D Addons Installers\PTA v2.63\Itay.ini loaded

That's now because you're not using the original shaders. Reinstall the client module only of P3D, then run PTA again (as administrator) and it'll work.

[itay5344 6]

Yes now its work.

The issue solved

Thanks wait for the A380

Either use PTA v2.66 for your installation of P3D or update P3D to v4.5.13.32097 and use PTA v2.67.

Jay,

Thanks for your reply.

I updated P3D to v4.5.13.32097 and use PTA v2.67.

Result as follow:

I was facing the same error. Try to uninstall/reinstall P3D client (NOT repair). It worked for me.
