[nrlion2b]

I keep trying to download the 737 to xplane but whenever that happens it complains that the gizmo file is not unzipped or something like that. I am kind of new to xplane and need help lol. if it is easier plz email me: nrwarrior17@gmail.com

Unzip the installer before trying to install, do not launch it from the compressed file.

 

[nrlion2b]

alright i will try that, sorry im a noob haha

 

[nrlion2b]

is there a specific way to do that?

I cant seem to do that. Do i need to put it on my desktop?

[nrlion2b]

someone plz help

Wherever you downloaded to ..........

Copy then paste it to say your desktop

Now unrar/zip/7-zip it

Then once all is unrarred/extracted then use the installer

Once done iirc you need your purchase email and password to verify

Hope that helps

it still says that the gizmo 64 is unzipped or there is no place to put the plane in the xplane plugins.

[Tchou]

Is your hard drive full ?

[nrlion2b]

nope

[Tchou]

Could you describe the steps you take ?

[nrlion2b]

I just unzip the installer and then go through the x aviation process and then it gives me an error about unable to install because of the unable to put the file in the folder or something

[Tchou]

do you hav a more specific message than "or something…"

If you are not precise in your description, you won't get helped. 

make a screenshot. 

And also you could contact X-Aviation Support… with the right message, the developpers will now what went wrong.

No drag and drop. The installer will install the files to your X-Plane installation.

Ok. Good

What you do now is right click on that file. And choose "Extract All" ... Do you have that option ?

Ok. Then you should get a new folder called IXEG 737 Classic 1.0 or something. 

Please open that folder

 

And start the windows-installer.exe
