FSrepaint V2.0 Help!!!!

Postby RaptorF22 » Wed Sep 02, 2009 6:57 pm

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

Is this where yours is?

regards,
Joe

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.

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.

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!

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.
