March 20, 200818 yr Hello everyone,Everytime I try to update the FSX Voicepack using EVP 4 CTP 2, I get this error:Error updating voicepack file:Access to the path 'C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft GamesMicrosoft Flight Simulator XSoundATCEvpAccelerating.tmp' is denied.Why is this, and how can I fix it?Thanks, Regards, BoeingGuy ASUS P5E X38 | Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 3.2 GHz on 1600 MHz FSB (400x8) | 4 GB DDR2-800 RAM | EVGA GeForce 8800 GT Superclocked @ 679/979 | 320 GB Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 RPM HD

March 20, 200818 yr Hi Dennis,Oh, I think that's it. Bummer. Thanks anyways! Does this mean I can't use custom airlines?Thanks, Regards, BoeingGuy ASUS P5E X38 | Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600 @ 3.2 GHz on 1600 MHz FSB (400x8) | 4 GB DDR2-800 RAM | EVGA GeForce 8800 GT Superclocked @ 679/979 | 320 GB Seagate Barracuda 7200.10 RPM HD
March 20, 200818 yr Author That's what it means. I think parts of it work. But it is more that it is not finished for FSX yet, than a Vista problem. I have my own airlines and airports that I dearly wish atc could call, but no go.Bob Bob i5, 16 GB ram, GTX 960, FS on SSD, Windows 10 64 bit, home built works anyway.
March 20, 200818 yr Try using EVP3 on Vista. See if that works. Do you know if EVP3 works in Vista?I still use EVP3 on WinXP, with FSX. I have plenty of custom callsigns and ICAO's in my FSX because of this.RhettAMD 3700+ (@2585 mhz), eVGA 7800GT 256 (Guru3D 93.71), ASUS A8N-E, PC Power 510 SLI, 2gb Corsair XMS 3-3-3-8 (1T), WD 150 gig 10000rpm Raptor, WD 250gig 7200rpm SATA2, Seagate 120gb 5400 rpm external HD, CoolerMaster Praetorian Rhett 7800X3D ♣ 96 GB G.Skill Flare ♣ Gigabyte 4090 ♣ Crucial P5 Plus 2TB
March 20, 200818 yr Author As I understand it, FS9 can use more than one voicepak(or somthing like that). I believe you can create your custom voicepak in EVP3, than import it into FSX, so that you can have custom callsigns, but then you have to delete the original FSX pak because FSX will read only one or the other. I believe that means callsigns for new airports(new in FSX) and any new atc (if there is any ) will be gone. That's the last I heard ,anyway. I think I'd rather wait for something FSX compliant. I hear of too many problems porting FS9 things into FSX.Bob Bob i5, 16 GB ram, GTX 960, FS on SSD, Windows 10 64 bit, home built works anyway.
March 20, 200818 yr Moderator Lars is quite correct. All you need to do is "give yourself permission in Vista" to use your own bloody system......now you can understand WHY I believe it's a "Bad Idea" to install FS(any version) to the default path on a Vista machine. :) Fr.

March 20, 200818 yr Author But all you have to do is turn off UAC and everything works fine. EVP4 is not a complete program. What is there works fine in Vista. Bob Bob i5, 16 GB ram, GTX 960, FS on SSD, Windows 10 64 bit, home built works anyway.
March 21, 200818 yr Moderator >But all you have to do is turn off UAC and everything works>fine. EVP4 is not a complete program. What is there works fine>in Vista. Isnt' that just what I said, more or less? You have to "give yourself permission to use your own bloody system!" :)Of course EVP4 works with Vista. I've been using it since it was first put up for evaluation. Fr. Bill AOPA Member: 07141481 AARP Member: 3209010556 Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
March 21, 200818 yr YES! That was it! Thanks everyone! I just had to give myself permission, then use the right-click and Run as Administrator option. Geez, this is so irritating. Why make Vista so secure to the point of obnoxiousness?Thanks everyone!

March 21, 200818 yr Author I do agree with you. Kind of like all the passwords I have to put in to use my " own bloody system" :-)Bob Bob i5, 16 GB ram, GTX 960, FS on SSD, Windows 10 64 bit, home built works anyway.
