And does the P3Dv5 installer uses xml method to install or old standard via scenery.cfg

The installer still uses the old standard. There is no option to do an xml install. Which is a shame. Though I think you can use Lorby AO to change it once installed. I just have it installed the old way and no problems so far. 

Compared to the old one, I had FSGUNG installed I dont see a lot of difference personally. It just nice to have the (allegedly) latest data. 

Cheers,

Bully.

Since you mentioned the installation issue  with FSGU NG 2020, there is and with the companion utility AFM2 (RC3
V0.99b 5.5.2020). There is a new version of this utility and it also uses scenery.cfg. If one tries to change that to an add-on.xml method of installation, every time you run AFM2, it adds itself back to scenery.cfg and creates a duplicate installation path, which causes havoc. This utility is used to create a smooth terrain transition around airports.

I didn’t report it. I’ll just leave it in scenery.cfg. But if you find out anything, let me know.

I keep getting this error massage in various numbers (41/28 and others) and it keeps rolling back just like Fenice

I followed the install and it activates just fine then right before the execution it crash

Is there a different way to install it 

Can anyone please show me how 

This is how I do it and it never works

......................

Please download all files and place them in a single new directory (folder). Do NOT name
this directory (folder) "FSGUNG2020". 

MAKE SURE the 8 BIN files (listed below!) are downloaded as BIN files. Some download managers save
them as ZIP files! You must in that case rename them back to *.BIN or the installation will fail!

However, you must probably first make file extentions visible in explorer in order to change
the file extentions. 

Google please, if you are not familiar how to do that
https://www.google.com/search?q=make+files+extentions+visible+explorer

Then unzip "FSGUNG2020.zip" into that directory (folder). Make sure you really unzip
into the directory (folder) where the BIN files reside. Pilots.setup.exe and the BIN files
must reside in the same directory (folder) or the installation will fail!

Then read manual (in directory DOC) and readme files BEFORE commencing installation! 

Then run "Pilots.Setup.exe" as administrator. 

Keep files safe for future installations!

Installation errors:
Please find the hash values of the large files below.

If you experience file reading errors errors, google, download and install "hashtab" to compare 
values with those of the files you downloaded!

If you find differences, please redownload this file
and check again!

AFR.BIN       MD5: C21B9C2F0C5E7D5102F89BA750EB0487
ANT.BIN       MD5: 7A581C4E2D75E6BA738E7387E8189029

Values must match

Have you checked the file hashes like it says? 

[Stefti 14]

Hi Djbully

Yes hashfiles are matching

I tried to change the location change name of the folder, always as Admin Same error different (error)number

Strange I`ve done it before and never had issues (earlier version)

I spoke with Stefan few times and he blame it at the Error # (which changes every time I move the folder)

I stopped bothering him and maybe I`ll figured out somehow....maybe

Best

Stef
