Problems with FSSC

I can`t seem to get the flatten area to work or advance buildings. It has been a long between using FSSC. I DL the1.25 version and then the 1.27 upgrade but I am still having problems.
 
The last version was 1.5.0.11 but 1.27 should be working for you. Try a reload just in case something got corrupted when you loaded it. Beyond that make sure you have a good copy of SCASM in the folder and that you have the coordinates correct. I drove myself nuts once before realizing I had transposed one digit and send the flatten off to a completely different location. :banghead:

Oh, and silly question but you are including the A16N.bgl along in the scenery folder, right?
 
I have loaded and then loaded FSSC and installed at least 3 times and still can not get the flatten area to even come up.
 
Bob,

first thing which came to my mind: Is your FSSC linked to the correct cfs2 install? If it is I cannot help without further information.
It would be helpfull if you send me the xxxxx.sca in question.
My email adress is in your pm in-box.

Cheers

I want to thank everyone for there help . I was able to find FSSC 1.5.1 which is the one I use. The only problem I am having now is getting it to transport the scenery to the correct CFS2 folder. I am trying to flatten the area around Guadalcanal in my test version CFS2 but it will not transport the scenery flatten area to the correct folder. Any ideas .
 
Bob,

open FSSC, click Tools, then Preferences and select Locations at drop down menue. There you can selct the cfs2 install you want to use.

Cheers

You find that one at

FS Scenery Crator
name.scn

Cheers

I just checked and there is no scn file. All I am trying to do at this time is add a flatten area to Guadalcanal using FSSC.
 
Fellows, this is what has happened up to this point. I was able to find and download a good working FSSC program on win98se some years ago and was able to transport over 95 airfields into CFS2 with no problems. When I got my next machine with Vista I downloaded FSSC and had problems but found a fix for the program and got it to work. I am now using win7 and I have everything working accept FSSC. I downloaded FSSC version 1.2.5 and then upgraded to 1.2.7 but had no luck in getting the flatten to work so I went hunting and found FSSC 1.5.11. Now the problem is the same one I had with Vista which is not being able to transport the scenery to my CFS2 texture or scenery folder. I also found that the author of FSSC no longer supports the program and his download sight is gone. Fellows what do you suggest? One of the reasons I have stuck with CFS2 is because I was able to do scenery along with doing missions and other things. Not being able produce good scenery for CFS2 just takes the fun out of the sim and it just becomes another old video game.
 
Bob,

if I remember correctly there is an issue with FSSC beeing a 32 bit programme and not working on Win7 64 bit. Some time ago there was a thread about that one but I cannot remember where and neither if there was a solution.
But I may be wrong.

Cheers

It looks like I am going to have to put in a new hard drive in one of my old machines with XP in order to get FSSC to work so that I can do scenery work.
 
I've just installed 1.5.11 on both Win7 and win8, both 64 bit, and I exported A16N files just fine. You must make them as New Misc. Object > Flat Area. Then when you do File > Export Scenery Wizard, you should see the A16N.bgl file in the list, and you're able to select the folder where you want it saved.
 
Fellows I am going to try and post some pics. of what I am doing , may be that will help. Give me some time to get it all togeather. For all those that have tried to help, thank you.
 
Update on what I have done up to this point. I was able to get FSSC to transport the scenery over to the selected folder, I then added a texture folder to the named folder and CFS2 added it to the scenery library but it still does not show up when I run CFS2. The only thing that I can figure is I put in the wrong location. I went back and checked it and the location is correct. I am at a lose as to what to do next, any ideas.
 
Without the SCN file and/or a step by step description of what you've done it's pretty much impossible to help you out (without confusing you even more)
Can you still not find the SCN file? If you've saved your project, it must be somewhere. If you've installed FSSC in the default location c:\program files(x86)\leung software, Windows will not let you save the files there (if you have UAC enabled). Instead, unless you specify a different folder to save to, it will be saved in c:\users\username\appdata instead.
 
Sander I have 2 BGL files 2 SCA files and 1 file list in the scenery folder and an empty texture folder. I had to add the texture folder after I had transported the Guadalcanal scenery to my scenery desk top folder.
