AA6 not recognizing GSC Catalog

Post by Forum_2017 »

Hi,

I've just installed AA6 on my desktop PC. and also installed the GSC Catalog under C:\GSC11. But AA6 isn't seeing it, even though I have:
AA6_1.JPG
and
AA6_2.JPG
I have exactly the same catalog in the same location on a laptop running AA5 with no problem at all.

Any suggestions?

Hi, check the Preferences of AA5 on the laptop: the compressed GSC catalog used by AA5 and AA6 is usually installed in a folder called "GSCData" and contains no subdirectories.
That catalog seems the uncompressed version, not supported by AA5 or AA6.
