When trying to install the two Stonehenge scenerys I got the message "Another version of this product is already installed. Installation of this version cannot continue. To configure or remove the existing version of this product, use Add/Remove Programs on the Control Panel."
I'm sure the phoenix team will sort it out soon but for those that cannot wait here is how I got it to work.
first delete your temp files in C:\Documents and Settings\your_name\Local Settings\Temp
if you cannot see these folders then enable "show hidden files & folders" in Tools - Folder_options - View
then run the installer i.e. phoenixRC_stonehenge.exe
when you get the above error do not press OK. Instead have a look in C:\Documents and Settings\your_name\Local Settings\Temp and you will see a folder. In that folder there will be a file called PhoenixRC - Stonehenge scenery.msi
copy that .msi file somewhere
open a command prompt, CD to where you copied the .msi file and run the following command :-
msiexec /a "PhoenixRC - Stonehenge scenery.msi"
The installer will run, click next
It will then ask you for a network location.
For a standard installation type in C:\
this will install the scenery files to C:\Program Files\PhoenixRC\resources\environments.
now repeat above for phoenixRC_stonehengeNear.exe
Hope this helps.
