[real-time display of aircraft position in GE]

Hi,

To see your current position in GoogleEarth in real-time, you have to choose the menu item GPS-->Show Position in GoogleEarth

Note that this option is only available if a) you are connected to Flight Simulator, and B) the GoogleEarth folder on your system

has been correctly specified in Window-->Options-->Online.

Hello Volker,

thank you for your proposal, I did it but I get still the same Failure message:

Mögliche Vorgehensweise: Geben sie die Adresse erneut ein."

This messaage is only with the German Version, the english version is working.

On the PC where I have installed the FSC is the Windows XP installed.

Hallo Werner,

In any case of a problem, go to our website, download adn download the german help file.

[Lockbook]

FS 2004 (FS9), FSUIPC3.98, FSC86-DB86, Build 101209, Windows XP,

Hallo Volker,

ist folgender Fehler bei euch schon mal aufgetreten.

Beim speichern des Lockbook als PDF_Datei erschien die Fehlermeldung Laufzeitfehler, das ging so schnell das der FS Commander abstürzte. Leider habe ich mir die Fehlernummer nicht gemerkt 3…. oder 4… Nummerfolge. Danach war die Komplette Datei von der Festplatte gelöscht und ist auch nicht mehr auffindbar.

Gruß Reinhold

Hallo Reinhold,

bisher ging ich davon aus das ich unserer Programm gut kenne und deshalb habe ich keine Ahnungt

wo Du das Logbook und dann noch als PDF SPEICHERN kannst.

Wenn Du allerdings meinst den Druck des Logbooks in eine PDF umzuleiten, so funktioniert das bei uns problemlos.

Klär mich bitte auf.

Gruss

Volker

[GPS window not available]

The GPS window in my system is not functioning... actually it never appears when I connect to FS. The previous versions works fine.

I have windows 7, FSUIPC4.4 and I followed all install instructions.

Any hint?

[Unable to save flight plan path]

please send a plan you can't open to my e-mail adress which you find at the botton on our homepage.

[Importing FSX flightplans?]

Hi Sascha,

You're absolutely right. I erred in that I indeed was able to have FSBuild generate FSC8 compatible flightplans. Now these flightplans no longer seem compatible with FSC. (They were in FSC8, I am 102% sure :)).

I tried to load such a flightplan (a FSC8 one generated by FSBuild) in FSC9 and was slapped around the head with the message "Sorry! This is not a valid FSC flight plan". Is there a way to make this flightplan valid again?

Thanks,

Hans

Hi Hans,

the answer is NO because the new flightplan contains also the data for the transition.

Regards,

Volker

[English Version?]

What's this "Ja" "Nein" stuff on dialog boxes?

[Unable to save flight plan path]

Hi all out there,

I have been fooling around a little with different tests and could find out following:

All flightplans are saved in the C:\FSC9\Flightplan\FSC\ folder. If in the window "flight plan - save as" Flight simiulator X is marked, the flight plan will also be saved in the FSX flight plan folder (logic isn't it). In my case "Y:\"

To open a saved flight plan, it only can be done from the C:\FSC9\Flightplan\FSC\ folder.

Since I don't make other flight plans than with FSC, this is Ok for me.

I hope this clears a little bit how it works and my own confusion, for all struggeling with the same, if any.

regards,

Etienne

Hi Etienne,

as you can see on the attached screenshot: I have mounted My Documents on my Laptop as Drive Z:\\.

And you see below Drive Z:\ the folder Flight Simulator files.

In your screenshot the Box below your Y:\ drive are empty.

Read also the manual, chapter Appendix, Page 120 and watch the screenshots

[Registration FSC 9 failing]

Same happened with me. However, when I uninstalled FSC9 and removed the installation folder, after reinstallation registration seemed to work flawlessly. Unfortunately when I exited FSC and later started it up again, FSC9 was unregistered again. Reregistering failed again, no matter how many attempts I made.

I am running FSC on the E: partition of my harddrive, using Win7-x64 Ultimate, registered version of FSUIPC and FSX SP2.

Also when I open the FlightPlan tab and then click Open, the right side of the window is greyed out. I just can't select FSX to be included in the flightplans display, despite the fact that I had all path settings correct in Options. Anybody able to advise how to solve both mentioned problems?

Kind regards,

Hans vanWyhe

Hi Hans,

have you RUN the Installation as administrator?

Regards,

Volker

[Can't Find Registration Input Location]

I downloaded FSC9 from the Flightsim Commander site. I followed the link to SimMarket and purchased (at the update price) a license. I signed onto my SimMarket account and received the key. Now, where do I input this key so that my copy of FSC9 will be a registered version?

Thanks

[Small problem with 9.0]

Sascha/Volker

Thanks for the new version guys - all working as far as I can see with one minor problem (for me at least) - with 8.6 and before I could copy a route from another source and paste it into the route box but find I cannot do that now. Any reason why this is so?

Thanks

Hi,

[Registration FSC 9 failing]

Hi Sascha,

I copy/paste what I see in my simmarket account (name, e-mail and key) in FSC9 and I still get the message Registration failed! Incorrect data entered. If you wish I can sent you an e-mail with a screenshot. To what e-mail adress ?

Kind regards, hans van Oers

Hi Hans,

[FSC8 and FSC9]

[FSC folder READ ONLY]

Hi Andrew,

1) I dont know because we dont set the folder to read only

Maybe you are in trouble because we are writing into this folder

2) Why do you want to delete them?

[Unable to install evaluation version]

Hi Sascha & Volker,

Just downoaded the FSC90.zip from the FSC web site.

When I tried to run the installer, it said it could not continue due to a fatal error.

Tried downloading again with same result unfortunately.

Also, would it be possible to see a list of what as changed in v9 for owners of v8 ?

Thanks in advance,

David

Hi David,

no more information from the OS about the fatal error, because thats not an Installer error?

The most detailed information can you get while download the manual here:
