OT particle lesion install hassels

I have PI 3.0.2 installed which is the last installer exe supplied from PI

When you fire up PI 3.0.2 it hangs as its looking for updates or doing some endless cyber surfing on the net “this can go on for hours ,days and years”
The update to fix this is 3.0.4 but there is an install issue “ you are attempting to install into a folder that does not contain a particleillusion. Exe

There was a work around for both these issues but I can’t remember what they were.

Anyone remember or got any solution?

Rory

He only had lotion no solution ….and I’m hurting

The install issue had something to do with the underscore in the update install , can’t remember exactly what.

………Finally remembered, it’s amazing how a few hours of anger and irritation can improve one’s memory

Rename the current PI folder IN PROGRAME folder to particleIllusion_3……….

Soniclight unfortunately I wasn’t informed that the Creative Cow was a direct descendent of the golden calf mentioned in Exodus
I failed to remove my sneakers and bow down So I have been banned from that forumorgy by the high priest himself.

Fortunately Alan did e-mail me with the update link
