Running 4 instances of DCS, but it's not finding any install.

Can't find a way to fix.

What is the path to your DCS installation? Tauntaun is just using some hardcoded values.

Here it is:

D:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta Server

That's not an average path :) I'll add a config option to override the "autosearch" function.

Please test this build: https://github.com/UOAF/project-tauntaun/actions/runs/2227193282

Run tauntaun once it will create a new entry in the config json then edit it and set dcs_directory to your DCS installation path (give full path as you linked above).

Config file can be found here: C://AppData/Roaming/tauntaun_live_editor/config.json

This version is closing right away for me (the last build did it too, I had to take the build from a month ago for it to work)

Same issue. Build Exe #46, #47 and latest #48 close itself right away. Similar report (windows closes so fast that I had to take the snapshot doing a video! )

Thanks
"Pro tip" you can type cmd into the file browser's address bar and hit enter which will open a command prompt and you can launch tauntaun from there to see the error messages.

Looks like pyinstaller is dead it will take some time to figure this out. Building it locally should work.

Fixes issue #121.

I also modified some Python dependencies in requirements.txt to use >= instead of fixed versions. I think that using fixed versions (=<version>) will create more problems than it solves, in terms of compatibility.

Sorry to answer only now, but it's still not finding any DCS instances.

My path is "D:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta Server" and I add D:\Program Files\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta Server in the config file (only one \ makes it not launching)

Sorry I just realized the problem is in https://github.com/pydcs/dcs.
Pydcs looks for the path in the registry or tries to find the steam installation. I assume you have copied it that's why pydcs can't find it. The registry keys it is looking for are under HKEY_CURRENT_USER "Software\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World" or "Software\Eagle Dynamics\DCS World OpenBeta".

Please try to fix the path with regedit and see if it works.
