If you wanted to test, you can always delete the .xml files in the Decal 3.0 folder and click update again. It should re-download them.

No problem...


now isn't that a lot better than manually having to band-aid them every month to get it working?

Mine is not updating either....it gets stuck on the Updating Decal Components screen...do I need to uninstall and reinstall decal?


Edit: Because I can't spell today, also no firewalls blocking it

2nd Edit: tried to uninstall and reinstall decal and now it's saying I don't have Direct X9....tried 3 times even updated direct X...4th time it's working so I"m crossing my fingers this will fix it

Nope still won't update Guess I'll try again later.

and re-installed Decal?

"A general error occured."


The following components failed to install:

See the setup log file located at 'C:\DOCUME~1\SUNSHI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\VSD18B.tmp\install.log' for more information.

open C:\DOCUME~1\SUNSHI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\VSD18B.tmp\install.log and look what it says.


Now.. one question I have is.. does that error come from the DirectX setup from Microsoft's site, or the DirectX Setup from Decal?

the error comes from trying to reinstall decal...When I go to microsoft to update Direct X it says I have the most current version. Got decal to reinstall but still just sits on the updating decal components page where it says downloading 1 file out of 1.

I don't think the download issue and DirectX issue are related.


If it is failing to download the updatelist.xml, then there is a connection issue.. (which seems firewall related) but is different from the other guy's issue.


Are you able to manually go to the URL I listed above (the decal site for the updatelist.xml file)?


If so, does it read the file properly?
