I need desperate help. I want to put some stuff in my airports using the object placer, so every time I go into slew and minimize out of FS2004 to the object placer, I can't sync the FS position. WHY? Everytime I use it, it won't let me sync the FS position, the button is gray and unclickable. Help!

Do you have FSUIPC installed?That is the program by which RWY12 gets the required coordinates.The need for it is clearly spelled out in the documentation.

Help!I think you also need to have "pause on task switch" unchecked but I'm not 100% sure of that...Geoff

Keep us posted.

Yeah, I can sync the position but when I place something, it says an XML file was breated but comp failed to create a BGL file.

Just curious - are you using a version of XP which is in another language - i.e. not English perhaps?The seperator between coordinates which BGL expects to find is a period - and many foreign languages use a comma as the seperator which BGL will reject.
