• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Anyone here using Install Creator Pro?

Assuming you want the installer to auto-detect the location of the P3D root folder, how are you configuring Install Creator Pro to look in both possible locations depending on if the user is running a 32 or 64 bit system:


Prepar3D Registry Key Information

Prepar3D's registry key information depends on whether or not you are running a x64 bit or x32 bit Windows machine.

Registry information for computers using a 32-bit architecture is here:

>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\LockheedMartin\Prepar3D

For computers using a 64-bit architecture the registry key information for the 32 bit Prepar3D application is here:

>HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Wow6432Node\LockheedMartin\Prepar3D
 
I use NullSoft (NSIS) myself, but the same key specification should work regardless of where the actual registry entry is located:

InstallDirRegKey HKLM "Software\LockheedMartin\Prepar3D" SetupPath
