Hi Ernie,
A few days ago I was getting the error message which you see commented on often in the forums--- the short version of the error message was simply unable to create flight plan. I was not able to get too much help here in the forum so like all other flight simulator practitioners I kept fooling around going on the web looking up YouTube videos, and sorting thru anything I could to try to find a solution to my problem. I do not really know how, but I eventually managed to get the program to create flight plans. I should more accurately state that I was able to get the program to say that it created flight plans, because although it would create a flight plan which I could find in my users folder under the my documents, flight simulator X files--- a flight plan that I could use for instance with radar contact--- I was unable to locate the PMDG file that FS build said that it created.
I looked in the Microsoft flight simulator X folder, under PMDG, under flight plans and was unable to locate a file either in the flight plans folder or in the NGX folder. For instance, I would make for example a flight plan from San Francisco to Los Angeles (KSFOKLAX) and FS build would say that it created a flight plan for flight simulator FSX and for PMDG I would find the file for the FSX but I am not able to find this supposedly created file in the PMDG folder. At some point during this two or three days of working on this problem I was able to create a flight plan from San Francisco to Dallas-Fort Worth and also one from San Francisco to Chicago O’Hare that did show up in the PMDG folder----and those programs worked in the PMDG FMC once they were placed inside the end GX folder which resides in the PMDG folder. They would not load in the FMC unless they were placed manually inside the and GX folder.
To specifically answer your most recent post in the forum concerning this issue on my post
1. For the most part I’m not getting an error message any longer I am simply not finding the PMDG flight plan file that FS build says that it created.
2. I turned off the UA C in Windows 8
3. I would attempt to figure out a way to post the FS build2.cfg file but I cannot find it anywhere. I know that it is supposed to reside within the FS build directory but I cannot manually find it in their and when I do a file search within Windows 8 the program says that there is no such file.
Thank you for trying to help with my problem this is so frustrating----I have not been flying any of my virtual airline flights for months now due to the fact that there is such a long and tedious problem with getting FS build, radar contact, PMDG aircraft, my virtual airline acars, my ultimate traffic, my Rex, my set of mega scenery 2.0 new states, (somewhere over 30 states now), my easy dock camera etc.
Cheers--- hope somebody can figure out the no file in thePMDG folder issue
