June 6, 201114 yr Afternoon,I got an email the other day from simmarket stating that an update of FSBuild was available. Functions have been added for iFly amongst other things. I downloaded it, started the installation process, location my existing FSBuild folder and clicked install.On loading FSBuild (2.4) I am greeted with a number of errors and a subsequent software crash.Has anyone else updated and found this?ThanksTom Tom Why not read some useful tips and tricks - http://forum.avsim.n...22#entry1965722
June 6, 201114 yr No problems here.Ernie runs a forum for FSBuild at www.fsbuild.com--probably best to look for help there.

June 6, 201114 yr I have done all the beta updates and the final and it works GREAT. As stated, make sure you install into your FSBio;d directory. Other than that it works just fine.Bob
June 7, 201114 yr The installer only wants to see the name of the ROOT directory where your older FSBuild is - don't include the name "FSBuild" in that path. It adds the "FSBuild" folder name in the background and if you enter it yourself - it will install it to a second FSBuild inside the original FSBuild. (for e.g.) E:\FSX_Programs\FSBuild\FSBuild\new_stuff\ ... and it will produce those errors. i7 [email protected] | 32GB RAM | EVGA RTX 3080Ti | Maximus Hero VII | 512GB 860 Pro | 512GB 850 Pro | 256GB 840 Pro | 2TB 860 QVO | 1TB 870 EVO | Seagate 3TB Cloud | EVGA 1000 GQ | Win10 Pro | EK Custom water cooling.

Genius!!I have FSBuild v2.3 and did not receive any news on the update.Any ideas on where I can download this update? I check the FSBuild web site and did not see anything on it?I am not sure to be honest, i just got an email from the websit i brought it from, presumably the website you got it from would do the same, who was it you brought it from? - perhaps someone else will know.Tom Tom Why not read some useful tips and tricks - http://forum.avsim.n...22#entry1965722
June 7, 201114 yr Not sure, as it has been quite a few years since I bought it, but I will go through my e-mails as I have the receipt and key for it somewhere. VATSIM: P2 | I1
June 7, 201114 yr Not sure, as it has been quite a few years since I bought it, but I will go through my e-mails as I have the receipt and key for it somewhere.I bought mine several years ago on Simmarket.com and have the original e-mail somewhere on my system. But, if you have an account there, it is faster to log in and you can download the original and update plus it will show you the key for the product.Best regards,Jim
June 8, 201114 yr I have FSBuild v2.3 and did not receive any news on the update.Any ideas on where I can download this update? I check the FSBuild web site and did not see anything on it?You'll find a link to the update v2.4.0.18 (which is the same officialy released at Simmarket) at FSBuild's Forum.regards,Igor
June 8, 201114 yr Yeah, usually you have to browse to the actual folder but here you just need to go to root folder (for example "C:\Progam files" .... and not "C:\Progam files\FSBuild"). I was also confused about that. Tomaz Drnovsek My FSX Videos My AVSIM Gallery

I have had an APTS.TXT error and it really driving me crazy as nobody on FSBuild's site has answered it. I will almost say for certain it fixed me but as I am not in front of my computer at the moment I will have to wait until I am home. You just saved me some $$$, I was about to go FSCommander or PFPX.

March 29, 201313 yr I was about to go FSCommander or PFPX. When PFPX is released and if you are serious about flight simulation then that is the way that you will be going!
