Hello Gents,
I bought my FSX version of Shockwave lights almost 2 years ago from Simmarket. I recently had to reinstall FSX and now when I try to install the Shockwave lights it says:
"Either FSX was not found or there is file corruption is found in your FSX directory. This would likely be corrected by re-installing FSX"
Doing some research on the developer's forum, they have mentioned:
"OK, that is one of the original installers. It is looking for the following files to verify it has found FSX:
[FSX]\fsx.exe
[FSX]\SimObjects\Airplanes\Lear45\aircraft.cfg
[FSX]\eula.rtf
If you don't have all of these, just make dummy files and it should be OK.
So, my question is, how and where do I create these "dummy files" ? Someone with knowlegge on this please advise me; will appreciate you.

Re: Installing Redux lights on FSX
The locations are mentioned in your post;
[FSX]\fsx.exe
[FSX]\SimObjects\Airplanes\Lear45\aircraft.cfg
[FSX]\eula.rtf
So thats fsx.exe in FSX folder, aircraft.cfg in FSX\Simobjects\Airplanes\Lear45 folder and eula.rtf in the FSX folder.
Hope that helps,
thanks,
Lewis

Re: Installing Redux lights on FSX
Lewis, I am not as bright as a developer; so I'm needing to go by specifics not general info. So, under the FSX main folder I found a blue icon that reads FSX.exe, and I also found the Lear45 cfg folder. Now, the eula.rft icon... I see a Word document under the FSX folder named eula (not eula.rft) . So, I am not sure why it still does not installs. Should I create another word doc and name it eula.rft and place it under the FSX folder?Lewis - A2A wrote:The locations are mentioned in your post;
