I just bought FSrepaint V2.0 download, and when I try to make repaints it does not make an entry; or if it does make one, it is all messed up! And none of the textures are saved either.
I am running Windows Vista Home Premium 64 bit with FSX, and UAC is turned off.

Thank You!

My advice? Screw Abacus. Use something more like...I don't know...GIMP 2.6...Photoshop. I'd suggest gimp. It's free and easy to use...It's stable..did I mention it's free?

I already bought it!!
I'm not gonna' flush $29 down the toilet!!

I don't use Vista, but have read it is best not to install FS into Program Files.

Is this where yours is?

Are you running FSRepaint as an administrator?

The first thing I would would do is contact Abacus product support. I hear they're very helpful.

Thanks guys, but nothing worked.
I guess I'll call or email Abacus as Hagar suggested.

I think it's a VISTA related issue - you may be accessing FSRepaint V2 all right, but then there's the issue of accessing the FS-X files.

Contact adam@abacuspub.com.

Thanks guys, I contacted Abacus customer support and they fixed it.

and the fix was?

Remember, it is a Violation (well, to my sensibilities) to cry out a problem and have it fixed without telling the solution!

hehe, the fix was to uninstall it then reinstall the newest version that fixes some vista bugs.

Thanks for your help guys!

good, glad to hear its resolved

I just downloaded the current version of FS Repaint v2.22 and I'm having problems under Win7 64-bit.

Try doing a new install to a folder outside the "Program Files"  equivalent - say c:\Abacus\FSRepaint2

I'll try that.  But it did install in the \Program Files (x86) folder where it should be OK.

BTW, two days and no reply from Abacus.
