Qas, if I might add to jds response, a step that he helped me with.You can start RC at any time, but don't go beyond that until you have started FS and loaded the default flight, whatever it may be, by hitting the fly now button, once you have the default flight loaded go back to RC, either start it or return to the already running program and then load the RC rcd. that you want to run. To switch between programs it helps to be in windowed mode, if you do not usually use this feature you can get into and out of windowed mode by pressing the ALT+Enter keys together. Hope this helps.Regards,Larry MoBo nvidia 680 SLIRAM 2-1 Ghz pc 800 DDR 2CPU Intel Q 6600 quad core 2.4 GhzGPU nvidia 8800 GTS OCOS XP SP3FSX SP2

I definitely vote to see more of your work, hope you will be able to get the OK and it will be FSX compatible.REgards,LarryMoBo nvidia 680 SLIRAM 2-1 Ghz pc 800 DDR 2CPU Intel Q 6600 quad core 2.4 GhzGPU nvidia 8800 GTS OCOS XP SP3FSX SP2

OK, I'll get that done this weekend.Regards,Larry

JD, the loading problem occurs whether I am running an addon aircraft, scenery or something like Cockpit Chatter. Today as a test I started FS created a flt plan using FS (normally I use FS Commander) with a default aircraft and nothing running in the back ground. Started RC loaded the flt plan and started FS. Got my clearance and then saved the flt and closed everything. Restarted FS loaded the saved flt. started RC and loaded the rcd, same results, long wait (50-60secs) the "unable to load..." clicked OK and FS came up with RC running at the point I had saved. Even tried starting FS and then trying to load the saved flt using RC, which I thought you should be able to do,but had to load the flt using FS and then RC for the flt to load. We have a rather crude saying here in the US about "beating a dead horse", the point is that I was just curious about a possible cause for this anomaly,since someone else was also having the same problem, but it is just an annoyance, it will not keep me from using the program or purchasing some future upgraded program. I appreciate your taking the time to pursue this, I consider it a victory when a customer gets treated fairly and with respect.Regards,LarryMoBo nvidia 680 SLIRAM 2-1 Ghz pc 800 DDR 2CPU Intel Q 6600 quad core 2.4 GhzGPU nvidia 8800 GTS OCOS XP SP3FSX SP2

Version 4.2.8.0 which I believe is the most current.LMoBo nvidia 680 SLIRAM 2-1 Ghz pc 800 DDR 2CPU Intel Q 6600 quad core 2.4 GhzGPU nvidia 8800 GTS OCOS XP SP3FSX SP2

Hi JD,You may miss this reply, didn't have a chance to test your suggestion for a while. Unchecking the display text does help the program move along once started, but still have the problem of slow loading of saved record and the mesg that RC was unable to load flt, but it does load after you click OK. Also when shutting down FS RC does not shut down, and when I force the closing I get a "program not responding" window.So, I guess it's not 100%, but does work other than these annoyances. Will check to forum for any future posts on this.Regards,LarryMoBo nvidia 680 SLIRAM 2-1 Ghz pc 800 DDR 2CPU Intel Q 6600 quad core 2.4 GhzGPU nvidia 8800 GTS OCOS XP SP3FSX SP2

>is the display text option checked on the options screen?That is correct.Larry

Hi JD, have you found any answers to this...I have been having the same problem for months...possible after I had to do a reinstall of the program. It does load the flight, but things work slowly, ie the options to respond to a clearance take a few seconds to come up. Thanks.Larry

This should be hopefully my last post re the scenery DB. I did upgrade RC for both FS9 and FSX to the v4.3, the rebuild worked as expected for FS9, but at first I got the "run time error" thing for FSX, found that Makerwys.exe was not installed in the FSX folder, took care of that, and the rebuild worked fine. Thanks again JD and Ray for your help, these forums I believe are essential, not because you make a crappy product, but because computers are so ######y. I wish my 777 had this kind of support.Regards,Larry

JD, I've actually made some progress by upgrading to v4.3, still some glitches which I will try to work out and then get back. Thanks for sticking with my problem.Larry

JD, I did re-download the file and unziped to the folder Flight Simulator 9 which contains all the folders ie aircraft, gauges, etc and other config and .exe files. Still get the same response that it is not in FS path. The version is a CD 4.2.3831.Larry

running xpI am the default user and administratorIt installs to c:program filesrcv4, when I start the program it does not ask where FS is, if that is what you are asking. I always have FS running before I start RCmakerwys.exe is in C: along with Runways.txtLarry

Once again I uninstalled RC and removed makerwys.exe and all the files that were installed when I ran the program in the FS9 folder (runways.csv, g5.csv, etc.). Reinstalled and there was no Makerwys.exe in FS9 so I moved the one downloaded from the link JD gave me, tried to run the rebuild scenery DB and got the same response. I think there is something going on, maybe unrelated to RC that is causing the problem, so I don't expect to solve this any time soon. Thanks for your help guys.Regards,Larry

I am going to have to leave this for a day or so, but wanted to reply. I assume the root is C:Prog...MS gamesFS9, that is where MakeRwys is, looks like a small "windows" icon. Tried the Rebuild and got the same response, .exe not there. I am currently running the CD v4.2.3831, assumed that 4.3 was only necessary for FSX, which I had installed with no problem before I uninstalled it all. Anyway, will check back later tomorrow when I have time to start over. Thanks,Larry

Thanks jd and Ray, unfortunately, I'm still getting the same response when I run the scenery DB. After I read the Pete Dawson's notes, I ran the executable file and got all the files that he mentioned, but at the end he says to move them into their respective program's folders. I'm just trying anything. but don't know what folders he's referring to. Sorry I ever uninstalled the program, but that's another story. BTW the program seems to work as before, when I start a save flight, but have not yet tried one from scratch nor tried installing into FSXThanks,Larry

I can't find a post about this, just reinstalled RC 4 for FS9 and when I tried to Rebuild Scenery DB after I clicked No to FSWide the response was "Markerways.exe is not in your FS path, which it should be". I don't remember having this problem before on previous installs.Thanks,Larry

Has any one else tried changing the default "1" and "2" key strokes to new ones in FSX. When I make the changes and it says you must restart FS so I shut it down and RC also and then restart I get the commands in the window that I expect "CS1", "CS2", but nothing happens when I use them.Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. Thanks,Larry

Unfortunately, my headphone/mic connects with a USB so it's just another sound device which with FSX I can select it in the "voice" tab and get the rest of the sound through the sound card speakers. Thanks for the input though.Larry

A nice feature with FSX is the ability to use headsets for voice, Is there any way to tie that feature into RC and FSX?Thanks,Larry

jdSo far I have found that RC, (to my surprise) works in FSX fine and that I am having problems with moving ANY of the sub panels on FS9, the program just crashes. There does not seem to be a way to uninstall v4.2 only and not v4.3 to see if that might be at fault some how. I have tried loading an older version of FSUICP and that did not help. I hate to undo something that works, but may uninstall RC and see if that makes any difference. Don't want to think about it, but may have to uninstall FS9 and start over. Larry

jd,I had the current FSUIPC installed already, but I downloaded a new one using your link and installed it over the one I had. No change, as long as I don't try to move or alter the window in the default location (upper left) the program seems to work OK. Not a very satisfactory situation.Larry

jd,I am also having similar problems, have yet to get RC4 to run on FS9 using the RC window. Followed the above instructions and the window will now come up when I press alt key but as soon as try to move, resize or do anything with the window the system crashes and FS disappears. I have uninstalled, reinstalled and the reg key seems to still be accepted, but don't know if that may be the problem. I have the CD version 4.2.383Thanks,Larry
