edryan Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 Can anyone help me enable the AFCAD to lock to the simulator so I can update airport parking and all? I installed the latest FSUIPC and still cannot get the AFCAD to lock onto the FS9 simulator when I click it in AFCAD.. It worked just fine a week ago. Very frustrating. Thanks in advance.

wout123 Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 if it worked one week prev, something must have changed, was that the latest fsuipc install? maybe try the prev version then? or did you install other stuff too? i dont knwo about afcad but latest fsuipc for fs9, aka version 3.999z9b works fine with external programs like active sky ase and plang.

tgibson_new Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.html Scroll down to the FS2004 version. Tom Gibson CalClassic Propliner Page: http://www.calclassic.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTweak Posted May 12, 2018 Share Posted May 12, 2018 IMHO, the best software for creating and modifying an AFCAD file is ADE9. Click on the word ADE9 to go to the download site. If you'd prefer Lee Swordy's AFCAD, that may be found HERE. Good luck!

edryan Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 Purchased the newest FSUIPC and the key is not working correctly so cannot get full options. But installed it and still cannot lock onto FS9. Where am I supposed to place AFCAD in the files? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edryan Posted May 12, 2018 Author Share Posted May 12, 2018 I mean where do I place AFCAD? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhantomTweak Posted May 13, 2018 Share Posted May 13, 2018 The program, or the files? I'm pretty sure you can place the program anywhere you like, but I would avoid C:\Program Files, and C:\Program Files (X86) . Where do you have your FS9 placed? Try placing the AFCAD program on the same drive, and see what happens then. ALSO Make sure you always run the program as Administrator. Very important. If you meant the AFCAD files, most just place them in the ...FS9\Addon Scenery\Scenery folder, but you can place them where you like. You just have to make sure the Scenery Library is "shown" where they are. Click on the ADD AREA choice, and navigate to whatever folder you placed them. If you put them in your ...Addon Scenery\Scenery folder, it should already be in the Scenery Library, so you don't need to do anything else. Does this answer your questions?
