Hey, there, Sorry about that! This has been fixed! Simply re-download the installer and all should be good. This was a scripting error with files trying to install that were not present and a bad path name.

Point taken on the magnetic mode Jack The "super system" version will be all new for V2.0 I have to leave something to get paid for in the future but several areas are getting refined for this update. There's no reason I can't do the entire MU2 systems accurately from what I can see, including relays and circuit breakers. Having done the 737 hydraulics and electrics has totally changed my approach to what can be done.....and along the way, we got XP to get out of our way on some critical areas. The best thing that has come from the evolution of coding the MU2 simulation is a refined organization that is scalable. My code has evolved from original MU2 to Falco to refined MU2 (which didn't quite make it in C)...and now with Gizmo, taken lessons from the 737 and the "brick walls" I hit with my previous MU2 code, I think I finally have a system and structure that will work at any level of aircraft simulation with high fidelity. I can't tell you how excited I'm getting...with Gizmo's upcoming features, X-Plane's new access to electrical systems and V10 lights/shadows..there is just about everything available now to make a darn near perfect simulation given enough time. Here's one good reason why I want to go with V10. I've been wanting to do this since 2006!
