active Re-install of ORBX (clean)

[Jamie Wallace]

Good afternoon All, 

 

I have completely re-installed my P3D again in the hope of trying to get Orbx to work. 

 

Below I have tried to label exactly what I have done, the issue is absolutely nothing from Orbx will install however all other addons from other devs have with no issues. 

 

I downloaded central from my account at Orbx and installed central. 

 

I click on Prepar3d as my simulator and then it loads the Central common settings. 

 

Backup location is setup fine and confirmed

 

Create your first Library - this is were the issues start. (i do not change the default location)

 

When i click the Ok button it shows this: 

 

I then click the X (cross) button to remove the message it goes back to setting up the library but then shows this :

 

If I then skip the step and tit asks for my saved payment details and then skip that step aswell. 

 

If I then go into the settings of Central and click on Libraries it does however show the Library created and the folder is confirmed on my Windows 

 

Lastly if I go into Insertion Point and try and setup the entry points for ORBX on my scenery library it shows the following error aswell

 

 

 

If I do try and install any scenery it will not let me at all. 

 

I have also attached a copy of the Log file from Central 

 

Thanks very much

James

Hi Doug, can confirm all is installed for Windows 10

Sorry to hijack this thread but I too have just rebuilt my W10x64 based PC and am keen to know what components need to be installed for Central to function correctly.

Like Visual C++ and Windows update. 

From memory, I have the latest w10 version installed (1909).

 

Thanks and Regards,

Marz

Hi!

 

Central is crashing when trying to read/write a UK2000 add-on.xml file.

Can you check that Read-only is unchecked on that file?
