Ernie, is this URL still accurate (FSB 2.4)? Or, is there a newer/better entry?

PATRAKURL=www.fsbuild.com/pacots.html

That Pacot URL leads to info from 4 July, 2009...

DJ

Just checked NATS for today and they are NOT current.

Ernie,
I'm comparing what is displayed in FSBuild NAT Window with todays NATS from this URL: https://pilotweb.nas.faa.gov/common/nat.html

They are not the same.

Tom

Tom,
Could you do screenshots of the problem?

Use this URL...it's the same format as before and seems to be updated more frequently: http://www.nyartcc.org/pacots/nat.html

Ernie,
This is a screenshot comparing pilotweb.nas.faa.gov/common/nat.html with FSBuild. As you can see neither the East or West track agree with what's currently in effect. I understand what you said about FSBuild updating every 4 hours but it would seem that either the East or West tracks (whichever is in effect), should always be current.



Regards,
Tom

Tom,

it works fine here, the NATs downloaded by FSBuild are exactly the same than the tracks which are in effect in the moment. O.K., the eastbound traffic for the upcoming night are just published 10 minutes ago, but it's clear that they will not appear in FSBuild because the update intervall of 4 hours.

Are you absolutely sure that you have set

NATRAKURL=www.fsbuild.com/nat/pilotweb.nas.faa.gov/common/nat.html

in the fsbuild2.cfg file in your FSBuild folder? As Ernie stated ?!?

Edit: I just had a second look on the tracks in your DailyNATracks.txt file, and now I'm sure you have the wrong (old) NATRAKURL set in your config. The tracks above are the outdated NATs from May 28, 2011, which are available under the old NATRAKURL. So please update your fsbuild2.cfg and you will see it working!

Jörg,

Thanks for your reply....after double checking....the NATRAKURL had been deleted and the only entry I had was the "ROUTELINE".

I've added the NATRAKURL now as you see below and it works perfectly. Please verify I should have both ROUTELINE and NATRAKURL as indicated.

[FSBUILD]
AUTOREFRESH_DELAY=1
MAGYEAR=2011
AIRCRAFT=B757-200 w/ PW2040
SBPC_SERVER=www.vatsim.net
ROUTELINE=www.fsbuild.com/nat/pilotweb.nas.faa.gov/common/nat.html
NATRAKURL=www.fsbuild.com/nat/pilotweb.nas.faa.gov/common/nat.html

Tom
