I have downloaded the new fsds version 224 and when I try to create mdl so that I can try my project in fs2002 I get a message "cant find file parmdict.bin" does anyone knows what it means maybe I missed something.Please help!
                                 Thanks

It's a small 4k file that should be in your install.

My suggestion, first, is to e-mail or call Abacus tech support;

Possibly redo the installation.

Q.  Did you download the FULL install or just the 2.24 upgrade

I use to have version2.20 it was all fine i decided to update so I wrote to Abacus and they emailed me back notifying me of the web address were to download the new version . I guess it is the full version.
               

Hi Felix'
          yes it is definatly full installation uninstalled it and reinstalled still no luck still getting the same message . I emailed abacus i was reffered to this topic, how about that?
           do you know the name of the file maybe it is in the systm somewhere?
                       thanks for trying to help me.

the file, like I said, is in the main FSDS folder.

I'm not at home right now, but let me see what I can dig up .  It may be tonight.

Skyhawk_1,
parmdict.bin is the name of the file.it is suppose to be in the c/ abacus/fsds_v2 folder.Might try a search in your computer.

Hi all,
      Well I searched the systm and found no file so I decided to reinstall again this time I found 2 files I did not have before 1 is called mdl_paramdict_fs2002.txt and the other mdl_paramdict_cfs2.txt they are both in the type of notepad files that you click on to open and read the contents. I tried to create mdl but still comes up with the same message"cant find parmdict.bin"
            I have been in touch with abacus if anything constructive comes out of it I will be posting it into this topic in case someone else have the same problem as it can be very frustrating'
              thanks once again
