No issues here Chris, works like a charm. It is truly an amazing pack. Art's airports really kick it up another level. Always loved Art's work. Great job Gregory!

Tom, I can only echo what has been said many, many times already. My thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this time. Please know that the child you leave behind, AVSIM, will be a lasting tribute to you and the love and devotion that you have shown our hobby for two decades. All of us owe you a debt of gratitude for making AVSIM our flightsimming family home. As a Charlottesville native I know you are in one of the most beautiful places in the world. I hope you can visit the Blue Ridge and gain some perspective looking out over the Valley, it always worked for me. Alpha Mike Foxtrot

Thanks Joe. I deleted through the Control Panel and it's not there now. Maybe the Windows Uninstaller didn't wipe it but a reg scan doesn't show any residuals. On to MS support I guess...

Thanks. Tried the copy over and no joy. I shut down my computer when I'm done always. Old habit from the Windows 3.1 days, I guess.

Afternoon, Tried this in the FSX forum but should have been here. I have had to do a reinstall of FSX for various reasons and am having a problem trying to get the SDK to install. I get a 1607: Unable to install InstallShield Scripting Runtime. I am right clicking as admin and all read onlys are off. Interestingly enough if I start the FSX install it works fine. I was on a delete tear and deleted the SDK, big mistake... :Doh: What I've done so far: -Tried MS Fixit which failed -Numerous searches which all pointed to Fixit or registry issues -Ran SpeedyPro PC and CCleaner registry repairs -Tried to find a newer version of InstallShield to no avail I have re-installed FSX so InstallShield is working fine. It is just for the SDK setup.exe that it won't work. I need my ADEX... :smile: Any help greatly appreciated. Happy Holidays all!

Thanks Gerry. I had found that but no joy. I'm searching and think I'll re-post in the Scenery Design forum. Thanks all.

Thanks Joe. Yeah, I know, I just went on a delete frenzy and wiped the disk. I have FSX on a separate drive and decided to start over. If it ain't broke and all that... :Doh:

Update 20Dec 2100Z Reinstalled FSX clean with no issues, stopped at initial RTM, installed fine, started once to finalize, no issues. Tried SDK again and same issue. I'm really stumped here. Wouldn't mind so much except really have used ADE a lot for AFCADs and need it for that. Again, any help or ideas appreciated.

I am right clicking as admin and all read onlys are off. Interestingly enough if I start the FSX install it works fine. I did go all the way to Acceleration before I started with the SDK's. Maybe I need to do the SDK's as I go? Any help greatly appreciated. Happy Holidays all!

Hi Gord, FTX Central->Tools->Reports->FTX Products Installed will give you a complete list of everything ORBX and current installed versions. Hope this helps.

Amen to that. The overall civility level has just tanked over the last 10 years or so. I'm about to enter my 60th decade next month and wonder what has happened to the Golden Rule, seems to be sadly missing these days. Such a simple rule really...

Good point, I absolutely should have added that this is a two way street. There is blame on both sides here.

Afternoon Folks, I'm going to vent a little here, something I rarely do online. And for the record, this is not directed at Avsim's forums per se. I was browsing through a support forum for a certain Kingair just now, reading a thread about memory management. It was a rather lengthy thread that was interesting until about 2/3 down when it suddenly devolved into yet another discussion about the recent global texture release by a southern hemisphere company. It was slightly shocking to see a discussion about an add on plane suddenly turn into how some companies are taking over your sim, etc., etc., etc. Please, please, please everyone, can't we stop this? By now most everyone knows how competitors feel about this recent release. Continual ranting about it is not doing anything to enhance their position, especially when hijacking a thread about an airplane! The product is out there, they can deal with it by improving their current product or work on a new one but don't continually inflict this venom on the customer base. I for one have had enough and will now begin to evaluate my future purchases with this in mind. I am a big boy, have been simming for over 25 years and I can make my own decisions about what I buy, what I install and what I remove. Developers should really stop occasionally and ask themselves am I helping myself and my business with my recent behavior? Thanks for reading and have a great Sunday. Gerald

Well I was just about to say that I didn't have this issue on the Orbx forums and lo and behold today I do. You're right, Tom. MS is not our friend. Guess some update over the last couple of weeks didn't play well with the other children. Time to look at another browser.

Hi Chase, Same thing here, same browser and version. Best,
