Couatl/Addon Manager tried to add FB's new KMSP...

Greetings,

Just bought and installed Flightbeam's new KMSP. After testing I decided to install GSX, which I just bought, and it seems Couatl/Addon Manager tried to add/move KMSP to another directory. I'm assuming they are moving away from your Couatl/Addon Manager and have developed their own for this one.

I've posted this same post in their forum as well. 

Thanks,
Todd.

Neither Couatl or the Addon Manager move anything.

Our updated installers will move an existing installation of any FSDT/Flightbeam sceneries to the new Addon Manager folder but, they move only sceneries which were always handled with our Addon Manager so, in case of Flightbeam KMSP, this is not included in the list of known sceneries that will be moved.

And, I checked the installer code, and it doesn't clean up the Flightbeam folder (while it DOES clean up the Fsdreamteam folder), for the *precise* reason that we might not known what future sceneries Flightbeam might release so, we remove the old Fsdreamteam folder from inside the sim, but NOT the Flightbeam folder.

I stand corrected, it did not move anything.  What it does do is change the path in the scenery config file for KMSP when I install a FSDT scenery.  It did it again after installing KCLT.

Confirming the issue.

PS. Really hate this new approach with FSDT Full Automation. Back-up files are ok, but they do not make my life easier. Please provide an selective options in your Live Updater.

Ok, I understand why.  Could you please try this:

- Fix the scenery.cfg for KMSP manually to the correct folder (it's inside the main sim ?)

- Download the Stand-Alone Addon Manager and install

- Check if the area for KMSP is still unchanged

If you can confirm this works, we can reupload all the other installers, so it won't happen again to those that will download them from now on.
