• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

sbuilder runtime problem

I downloaded sbuilder & installed it but got this message:
runtime error component comdlg32.ocx not correctly registered: a FILE IS MISSING

I have d/l comdlg32.ocx & put it in the Windows\System32 folder. I've followed both set of instructions I saw on 2 Windows sites, but I get this red cross message.
I'm stumped....can anyone suggest my next move?

Method 1: Re-register comdlg32.ocx file from an elevated command prompt
a. Click on Start; in the start search type cmd.
b. Right click on cmd.exe and choose to “Run as administrator”.
c. Type the following command and hit Enter after each one:
regsvr32 /u Comdlg32.ocx
regsvr32 /i Comdlg32.ocx
d. Close the command prompt and then try to run the program.

This didn't work so I tried this

1. Download comdlg32.zip and save to Desktop.
2. Unzip the file using WinZip or any other utility.
3. Extract comdlg32.ocx to Windows\System32 folder.
4. Type the following command from Start, Type Run then Hit enter then under Run type
5. regsvr32 %Systemroot%\System32\comdlg32.ocx

That worked a treat for SysWOW64 - thank you.......I now get 'smscomctl.ocx not registered missing or invalid'. I have just d/l the file but will try to get it registered tomorrow. I assume SysWOW64 again as I have 7 64 bit......

Now fixed.......I found a brilliant web site with lots of info about these problems & it had stuff about this!

thanks for adding that. Usually if you find a solution to a problem we would like you to post the information for others so if they have the same problem, they can fix it.
 
SBuilder for fs9 is a visual basic 6 program. Usually if more than one file is missing, it means you need to get a set of the vb6 runtimes.

I also have a problem, SBuilderX runs without any problem, but when I try to start SBuilder I get this error:

I have VB6 installed... Tried run it as administrator, all compatibility mode... My OS is Win 7 64 Bit.
