EDETH2 SID points missing

Hi,

I just flew the EDETH2 SID out of KSLC.  My goodness:  FSX / Plan G are missing like 8 waypoints!!!

SAPEE, BUCCO, SCANT, HIDUT, TOOLE, MUSAW, TRILA, TRANT

to name most of them.

The MOD2 STAR into KSFO wasn't much improved, missing:

KYLLA LEEFF and MEHTA.

Anyone know why these important fix points are missing from FSX / PlanG?

PS I recently updated my fix points from here:

Thanks!

Are these fixes in the BGL that you added?

Did you rebuild the Plan-G database after adding them to FSX?

Hi -- thanks for answering -- how do I find out if the fixes are in the BGL I added?

And yes -- I built the PlanG database after I installed the BGL.

Thanks.

Yes, at least the first two points SAPEE and BUCCO are in FSX FP (with no plan loaded).

I can upload a pic, but I can't figure out how to in this editor.  :-(

The BGL file with the waypoints was updated 13 Nov 2014.

Just had a thought: Plan-G skips files that it doesn't think are AFCADs according to the naming conventions. Can you make sure the filename you're using has got "_AFX" in it somewhere, then rerun the build?

Also when the build is done, look for your filename in the log file.

You are a genius, my friend!!!

So glad we fixed the fixes...  ;-)

No more lat/long conversion and data entry!  Yahoo!

Happy New Year.
