Now, I have been out of FS for a little while and I get it that FS Nav is no more. That said, I wanted something to replace that to work with FSX.
So I got FSbuild. And I am having issues. I have been reading for hours attempting to figure this out....and the LACK of basic info is really annoying.
I am not having issues getting FP created or loaded, I personally use Level D's 763ER. I truly don't know why ppl are having so many issues following a path...whatever.
I want to know a few things:
What do I do with the latest NavData file? Where do I put it, MORE IMPORTANTLY where are the instructions on how to do this?
SID's - STAR's.......
sigh.......
I am still learning how FSbuild portrays this in the route generator.
It does not work as I was expecting...or hoping, remember I am a FS Nav fan so you know where my expectations are.
With respect to the LVLD763 and the FMC limitations (which are alot) SIDS and STARS are useless in that FMC. I was hoping this program would take care of that. Is there a way (other than manually) to be sucessful in having my AC fly a SID OR STAR via the FSBUILD FP?
Is there ANY interface with FSBUILD with FSX...like FSNAV in 2k2 or 9?
Why in Gods name are there a million european flights pre planned and ready to simply select, but NO FP's for the US?
Why is there no simple instruction manual that coveres simple topics?
THe tuti page is all over the place, and it's not easy reading. For 25 bucks or whatever the conversion is (why the hell is it all in EUR formats) I was truley hoping this program was a bit more user friendly.
Simroutes does the same thing this program does..more or less...
Also, is there a way to have my FSbuild FP which is imported (.rte) to my 763 FMC AND have the altitudes (step climbs) populated so I don't have to manually enter it for RNAV use? Seems to me it should. Where is the instruction manual that goes over this??
thx
