Don't understand how to install to different directory
Don't understand how to install to different directory
I am trying to install the C182 into P3DV4 using the C182_P3Dv4_Academic.EXE installer. How do I install it do a different directory from the default C:\My Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons\A2A\. I've followed the directions given in the installer to change the install folder using the "BROWSE" button in the installer. The installation continues as normal and it is installed in the directory that I designated but the aircraft doesn't show up in the list of selectable aircraft in P3DV4. Please help. Thanks

Hi Ron,
Are you using v4.2 of Prepar3D? If so, there's a bug which Lockheed Martin introduced with reading "add-on.cfg" files. There's more information and a temporary workaround in this pinned post. LM Have stated they'll provide a proper fix in a future update.
Thanks,
Nick
