Couldn't Install in my Program Files
I just bought Mx Simulator and when I tried to install it in my Program Files, it couldn't installed it, so I tried again, but installed it in "My Documents" and it worked fine. Everything installed correctly and the game works. Am I ok or am i screwed.

Also I can't edit any tracks. When I go to where I'm supposed to type in "--editor" it says "The name (where I installed it) specified in the Target box is not valid. Make sure the path and file name are correct"

Re: Couldn't Install in my Program Files
It installed in "My Documents" because the installer wasn't running with admin rights. It shouldn't cause any problems, just remember your install folder is there rather than under "Program Files" if you ever need to put something in your install folder.

Hey. Thanks for the response. I still can't edit tracks. Look at the post below the original.

Not sure about that. Maybe you didn't put a space before --editor.
