Jack the Swede in Spain Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Interesting. FTXGlobal is ONE file 4,17 GB not several parts!!!! I downloaded it from the Cloud server without problems. Sure it is not your downloading program that does this? Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David T Ogden Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 I dont know about you, but I get a zip file with 9 parts. Part 8 always comes in about 90mb short. hellooooooooooo! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David T Ogden Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 from the readme: Orbx Simulation Systems - FTX GlobalPLEASE NOTE: Before installing this product you must have the Microsoft.NET Framework v4.0 installed and if you have other Orbx FTX regionsinstalled you should set FTX Central to default.Extract all files to a temporary folder and run the executable to beginthe installation process. see that?...'all files' Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack the Swede in Spain Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Mine also came as ONE .zip file but not in parts. When I unzipped the file it built 9 "parts/files" and one .exe file + a ReadMe. Do I understand right that there is an error when you unzip the basic file? And dear David, no need to get upset.

Jack the Swede in Spain Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 Extract all files to a temporary folder and run the executable to beginthe installation process. Means that you should UNZIP the big file and if you can read the ReadMe file as you have done then the files must be un-zipped. Just right click the .exe file and run it as administrator at it will be fine. Do NOT try to do anything (extract) the 9 files in the library they are used by the .exe file "as is". Good Luck.

David T Ogden Posted August 7, 2013 Author Share Posted August 7, 2013 I extracted it. I got an error Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack the Swede in Spain Posted August 7, 2013 Share Posted August 7, 2013 I might be a little bit stupid but WHAT did you extract? If it was the .zip file and got an error, the only thing you can do is redownload it again. Yes I know you have done that from several different servers, no other solution if the zip file is corrupt. But how did you read the Read Me file and saw the 9 parts if the .zip file did not extract correctly? Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack the Swede in Spain Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Made a test yesterday. Downloaded the .zip file (4,17 GB) from FSS Cloud server without problems. Unzipped the file, without problems. Run the .exe file, without problems. FTXGlobal Reinstalled without problems. If you still have the problem it must be somewhere on your side, the .zip file is OK and so are the unzipped friles. Jack Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolter van der Spoel Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Hi David, Looks like the installer is trying to find your terrain.cfg on your desktop, could you please double check that the registry path for fsX is correct, just to try and make things not to complicated. Also could you kindly add the details for the error just click the details button on the error pane and mause over to highlight the text you can than copy and past it here to your post.

David T Ogden Posted August 8, 2013 Author Share Posted August 8, 2013 So I need to point the installer at my FSX folder, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolter van der Spoel Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Hi David, the installer searches for the registry entry of fsX, if you moved your fsX main folder from that location the installer will still install the files to the location indicated by the registry this one works for that to double check if your registry entry is correct, if not you can repair it with this little tool => http://www.flight1.com/view.asp?page=library Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
