Glad that helped you Draycho. Enjoy the game.

[cmd]

Could you check that there is no ultrastardx.bak file in that directory?

It sounds like, for some reason, there are .bak files which would prevent the overwrite process. Try this:

1. Open up command prompt (Windows-R, then type cmd, or Start > Run > cmd). Instead of pressing enter, press Ctrl + Shift + Enter, this will run the command shell as admin.
2. Navigate to the install directory, on 32-bit type cd c:\"Program Files"\MyLittleKaraoke or on 64-bit type cd c:\"Program Files (x86)"\MyLittleKaraoke (will differ if you chose a custom install directory).
3. Recursively delete all .bak files by running this: del /S *.bak (make sure you run this inside the MLK directory, otherwise you could delete all .bak files from disc).
4. After this, try reinstalling the additional content pack.

[Please run the updater from the My Little Karaoke disc.]

Hello, today i tried to install the new Additional content pack for MLK but i ran into a problem during the installation: when i need to choose the directory where the core game is installed i choose it and press update. after this it gives me an error report:

"Specified install directory exists...
USDX Binary exists in patch directory...
Please run the updater from the My Little Karaoke disc."

what am i doing wrong??

Issue appears to be with the way PowerISO reads the disc (it tries to extract the executable to a temporary directory instead of running it from its location on disc, so the updater can't find the paths it needs to install from).

Either:
A) Copy all files from the DVD to a directory on your hard disk (including all the folders) and run the updater from there OR;
B) Try using Daemon Tools or writing to a physical DVD instead.

Hope you get the game working.

Yeah, I had a similar experience...
Then I realized that the default install directory listed wasn't correct for my system.
Vista-32 doesn't exactly have a 'Program Files (x86)' folder, ya know.

Be sure you select the correct install folder for your installation, and it should be fine.

If C:\Program Files (x86)\ doesn't exist, the updater should default to C:\Program Files\MyLittleKaraoke\ instead.

Code Select Expand

    // Get update path
    if(ui->installDir->toPlainText() == "C:\\Program Files (x86)\\MyLittleKaraoke") {
        QDir x86Dir("C:\\Program Files (x86)");
        if(!x86Dir.exists()) {
            ui->outputLog->appendPlainText("You are probably using a 32-bit version of Windows, trying 32-bit install directory instead.");
            ui->installDir->setHtml("C:\\Program Files\\MyLittleKaraoke");
        }
    }

Can you confirm where you had the program installed and also confirm that C:\Program Files (x86)\ hasn't been created by another installer?

Fillies & gentlecolts,

I figured I'd post here just to let everypony know who I am. I'm Suhosin, three parts code to one part politics. I ramble over on Twitter & Tumblr for the entertainment of everypony else, and I also write software.

I wrote the updater for the Additional Content disc for MyLittleKaraoke. If you get any issues with it, please let us know on the forum. It's written in C++ with Qt & licensed under the WTFPL, and you can get the source code here.

Enjoy the game, and look forward to interacting with everypony.
