StratoCruiser NOT FOUND message

Post by mjmowle »

My apologies is this is covered in another thread, but I did not see it. I have purchased the 377, and am trying to utilize the patch software, but when I down load and run it, the install program searches for the various aircraft, and indicates they are NOT FOUND, including the 377 which, clearly, is on my PC and as far as I know correctly installed. Is there something I am somehow doing wrong? Why can't the patch software see that I do have the 377 installed? Any feedback or suggestions will be greatly appreciated.

Thank you for your time!

Do you have COTS installed? If so, the upfater will report that the B-377 was not found but it SHOULD find
the COTS B-377 and update it as necessary.

No, I only purchased the base 377 package and did not get the COTS add-on. Shoot, why do I have a feeling this one's not going to be an easy one? If there's additional questions or information you need, please let me know and I will try my best to answer them.

I do not know what could be the problem here. Hopefully Lewis will check in and offer some
information on the update installer.

I have the COTS B-377 so I know it works for that version.

I appreciate it and will stand by. Likely "Something crazy with Windows..." like it always is.

Hello,

The updater is for Accu-sim aircraft. If you do not own the Accu-sim or in this case COTs package then the updater won't be able to run.

Thanks,
Lewis
