Aircraft in AFCAD.

Post by wbunnell »

When I go to resize my parking spots using Afcad Aircraft Editor, for JMAI B-52, I find Duplicate Aircraft listed. Removing the JMAI b-52s, I still have JMAI B-52s listed.

I remove all aircraft except Cessna 172, so I can Start FS 9,I still have over 100, B-52s Boeing and JMAI aircraft listed along with a Lockheed SR-71.

All of these aircraft parking spots cannot be altered.

I know this along used Afcad, older then a lot of us, but the Question still needs to be asked, where are these aircraft coming from?

In FS9, it will only pick up folders under the fs9\aircraft directory. FSX is different. So if you have only the Cessna 172 folder under Aircraft then I am currently at a loss for ideas.

The only reason I left the C172, was FS9 requires it to run. Maybe someone who is still using FS9 has had a simulator problem with Ghosts.

Used FS9 from day one and never had this problem.

I must admit that the only thing I could think of is that there is a index problem with the disk that your FS9 installation is on. It may be worth doing a chkdsk on that drive.
I once had no scenery due to a corrupt index and a chkdsk fixed it. It maybe that it thinks that files are there when they are nor which is why you can't alter the parking sizes.

Problem solved I hope!

Going to AFCAD properties\Compatibility, in the bottom “Privilege Level”, check “Run this program as administrator”.

For the time being the only aircraft I see is what’s in Aircraft Folder in FS9.
