Fsbuild-2 Flight Planner

Hi !

I am not able to export the successfully created plan to CDU of NGX 737 pmdg, kindly guide me how to do the entire procedure and also guide me how to export to Active Sky also. In the browes colum there is place for 737 NG but nothing for 737 NGX, I tried to send through FSX 2004/FSX folder through path-c:PROGRAM FILES[X86]\MICROSOFT GAMES\MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR X\PMDG\FLIGHT PLANS\VAAHVABB.rte. but did not succeeded,

thanks

First open the options | export directories page and use the browse button in the first row to set FS_HOME to the FSX installation directory - this is very important! When you do that notice that the other rows automatically get filled in with the normal export paths for those add-ons. Since you are using ActiveSky you will need to set the path to the directory where the weather file is kept so that FSBuild can read it when it generates a flight plan - in row 32 of the grid use the browse button to find your c:\users\(your username)\appdata\roaming\HiFi\AS2012\weather subdirectory and set it.

Now go to the options | settings page and check the boxes for the options that you want in the tree on the left side of the page. Under 'ExportTo' you should select FSX GPS and PMDG 737NG at a minimum. Now set the 'Weather' entry in the drop down to 'ACTIVESKY'. Now press the 'SAVE CONFIG OPTIONS' button and then close and restart FSBuild.

When you build a plan after all this it will store the plan in the (FSX)\PMDG\FLIGHTPLANS file where the 737NGX will look to find it. To get a flight plan into AS2012 use the import button in the flight plan page. AS2012 uses the FSX plan that will also be exported when you build a plan - it will be stored in the 'my documents\flight simulator X files' subdirectory.
