P3Dv5 Questions/Problems

Post by gollum65 » Fri Feb 03, 2023 4:13 pm

I finally got around to purchasing OMDB for P3Dv5 but I'm running into problems trying to install it. Is there an updated installer for P3Dv5? The universal installer gives me a serial # error. So I downloaded the P3Dv4 installer as instructed by the email I got from FlyTampa. But the P3Dv5 update thread on this forum says the following:

Install Version 2.4 Filename: FlyTampa_Dubai_Rebooted_FSX_P3D_24.exe
During Installation, uncheckmark the Option "Download Configurator and Libraries"

I'm not given the option to uncheck anything and it says on the last screen before you hit "Install" that it would download the configurator so I stopped. I'm running the installer as admin. What am I missing here?

PS: I've never had any version of OMDB from FlyTampa before so this is not an "update". It's a completely fresh installation.

Anyone have an answer for this? If not how do I get a refund?

This was resolved thanks to Martin from FlyTampa support. In case anyone else has this issue he said to ignore the lack of options and then just install the updates. Of course when I ran the installer again today the options were there. Go figure. And since I already had other FlyTampa sceneries installed for P3Dv5 it just automatically used that configurator. I installed the downloaded libraries anyway just to be safe. All working fine. Very nice looking scenery, even if it is outdated (I think?).

what od you mean by ignore the lack of options? How do you even install if it tells you about invalid serial?
