[wanabflyer]

Hi,

After a long absbsence from my P3Dv5 sim I tried to reinstall my UGCX v2.6 but keep getting a DirertX intstall error so i can't intall my UGCX. All my other programs and apps install just fine.

Would very much appreciate any help.

Thanks in advance.

What's the error message say?

Try downloading Direct X from here:

Hi Bryan.

I have actually found a way around the problem. It turns out that the DirectX installer that gets generated during the install process for P3D v5 is corrupted. What I actually did was to do a install of the P3D v4 version, copied the DX installer to my desk top, did another install of UGCX for P3D v5 and used that DX installer on my desk top and it worked.

I would’t mind getting my hands on a  UGCX for P3D v5 installer if possible. 
 

thank you very much for getting back to me,

Regard

Richard Hobbs.

Hi Rick,

UGCX already has a P3D v5 install option.  You would have used it when you installed UGCX into P3D v5.

But the existing .exe file generates a dx installer when selecting P3dv5 that doesn’ t work as it would If I was using p3dv4 which is more seamless as it is with all my other apps.
