FG2.12 can't install planes with "Install Add-on Data"

Postby DocHolden » Wed Oct 16, 2013 10:13 pm

FlightGear 2.12 Mac OSX 10.8.5

I cannot install planes with "Install Add-on Data" button:

When I try to install a zip I get this error:

Error occurs during installing the following file:
/Users/DFisher/Desktop/FlightGear Planes/A-10_20121203.zip
Error message is:
Not a valid file or folder: /Users/DFisher/Desktop/FlightGear Planes/A-10_20121203.zip

The folloing files are not installed:
/Users/DFisher/Desktop/FlightGear Planes/A-10_20121203.zip

When I try to install the file I get:

Installation completed

The following files/directories are successfully installed
A-10 >> (multiple destination)

But there is no plane loaded....

Any ideas?

Am I the only one with this issue?

Should I try to re-install FlightGear 2.12?

Thanks,

Doc

FG on Mac don't like spaces anywhere in the path. Don't ask me why.
You can try to rename the folder FlightGear Planes in FlightGearPlanes or FlightGear_Planes.
