Unable to locate a valid sse installation
« on: May 17, 2011, 19:54:26 »
hi

after playing sse for about 4 weeks, i decided to get the ferry pack. i bought it from ShipSim.com, downloaded it, clicked 'Run' selected the language, and pressed ok. it then said 'Unable to locate a valid sse installation.' i reinstalled sse, and downloaded it again. same thing happened.

What should i do now  ???

And do you have the STEAM version of SSE?

Do you use the Steam version of ShipSim?

If so, you need to buy it directly from Steam as the ShipSim.com ferry pack only works with the non-steam version.

Have you also added the Ferry Pack keycode in your profile?

And do you have the STEAM version of SSE?

The code adding in your profile has nothing to do with installing.
It's most likely that he has a steam version.

Send an email to info@shipsim.com explaining the situation. If I remember correctly they might be able to refund it.
