Fsbuild-2 Flight Planner

Hi all,

I've scoured the forum trying to troubleshoot this problem on my own but to no avail.

I've done all the requirements:

I've gone to the options folder and browsed to the fsx home directory folder which is
C:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\MICROSOFT GAMES\MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR X

I then click the settings tab and save.
I then close fsbuild and restart.

I then build my flight plan (EDDF-EHAM) and go to the Export To tab and click the FS2004/FSX option and then the PMDG option. I click build and I get this error:

Unable to create FS2000 file C:\Users\Owner\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files\EDDF-EHAM.PLN
Created PMDG 737NG File C:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\MICROSOFT GAMES\MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR X\PMDG\FLIGHTPLANS\EDDFEHAM.rte

As you can see, the flightplan is exporting to the pmdg folder, but not to fsx.
I then went to the FS Build .cfg folder and added the fs2004 pln line to as instructed by several posts in this forum regarding this problem. Here is what my .cfg looks like afterward:


[FSBUILD]
AUTOREFRESH_DELAY=1
MAGYEAR=2002
AIRCRAFT=B747-400 PMDG
SBPC_SERVER=www.vatsim.net
ROUTELINE=1
NATRAKURL=www.natroutes.glideslope.de/html/nats.php3


[MS-FLIGHTSIMULATOR]
FS_HOME=C:\PROGRAM FILES (X86)\MICROSOFT GAMES\MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR X
FS2004 PLN=C:\Users\Owner\Documents\Flight Simulator X Files
[FLY!]

[PS1]

[X-PLANE]

[STARTUP]
CLEARMAP_BEFORE_BUILD
DISPRTEWPTSONMAP
AUTOREFRESH_ON

I then saved these settings on the notepad and tried to export again, but I got the same message. I restarted fsbuild and tried to export again, I got teh same message. I tried all of those steps several times only to run into the same error message.
I even tried changing the export directory for fs2004/fsx to the flightplan folder under documents directly, and of course it didn't like that either.

I'm stuck and could use some direction. Thanks in advance.

Here are my specs:
My specs are Windows 7 64-bit, SP1, FSX Acceleration, Intel i5 2410 processor @ 2.3 GHz, 8GB RAM, ATI Radeon HD 6490M, Mobile Intel HD Graphics, Add Ons: PMDG 747-400, UTX North America, UTX Europe, My Traffic X, FS2Crew PMDG 747, FSPassengers

Btw, I am running FSBUILD 2.4.0.18 and I've updated the navdata in both FSBUILD and PMDG to AIRAC cylcle 1203.

Yeah, I probably should rename the username from owner...I just jumped straight to flight simulator once I purchased it. :)

First, thanks for your assistance, I really appreciate you taking the time to help me resolve this issue.

Second, I'm not quite sure what UAC is. User Account Control? Where do I got to check to see if it's on or off?

Yes, I notice your fsbuild configurations are more up to date and detailed. How do i update my configurations? For instance, your magyear is 2005 and mine is 2002. What does magyear mean?

You suggested I rename the existing file...which file did you mean? fsbuild? Flight Simulator X Files?

You wrote: "The export path to FS2004/FSX is automatic - you don't need the path variable you set." I'm not quite sure what you're referring to here.

Sorry for all the questions and requests for clarifications...it's just that I've been in and out of so many folders and files trying to troubleshoot this, that I've confused my self and I'm not quite sure what's what.

I will look into it. Thanks so much!
