Waypoints shown as "Unknown"

[Ray Proudfoot]

I've created and saved a flight in FSNavigator but when I load this plan into FSFK several of the waypoints are shown as "Unknown".

Of the 14 waypoints in this route seven are unknown. These include two major VORs - MID and OCK in southern England. Waypoints 6-12 are "unknown". MID and OCK are correctly identified in other flight plans.
 
The above was based on running FSFK on a networked machine using WideFS. However, I also have it installed on my FS2004 PC. When I load the plan into FSFK on this PC all the waypoints are correctly displayed. It seems it's only a problem across a network.

I've tried entering the full network path to the FS2004 location and also tried a mapped drive but to no avail. I've also tried deinstalling and reinstalling but the problem remains. I've also rebuilt the Scenery Cache. I sent the PLN to a friend who also runs FSFK on a network and all the waypoints are correctly identified on his PC.

Any assistance in resolving this would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

This is due the way FSNav stores it's plans. FSNav does not store the names with each waypoint, thus I need to look up the names, which does sometimes not work 100%, But with v2.5, this has been improved. So you will have to wait for the new version.

Thanks Thomas, look forward to the new version. Any clues as to when you intend releasing it?

In the meantime for the benefit of anyone else having this problem I've found that by exporting the FSNav plan to FS2004 and reading that file all waypoints are correctly identified.

Cheers,
