Even with older versions of IF it does that, but with fresh profile and aircraft sets?

Can you add a new profile in profiles page and build a flight with it as it is?

Next thing to do is check the original plan in the folder:

C:\ProgramData\Ideal Flight Professional\Flight\New

If your Pilot ID = 0 then look for:

0_Ideal_Flight.PLN

Are these files empty?

It works when I make a new profile. But back to old profile both .PLN (programdata and p3d files.) are empty. I can just make a new profile and move on. Thanks.

If you selected a flight with no plan they are empty files on purpose.

If that is the case there's nothing wrong with your other profile. In the Flight gen page select a build type that makes a plan.

If you want a plan with no route, choose direct. That way the plan is filled in with departure and destination but nothing in between.

When no plan is desired, IF continues to output the files but they are empty. This is so that the mechanisms surrounding flight plans with addons is complete.

Was it just the flight build settings? Plan Type and Plan Builder....

With a preview installed it may possibly have selected a zero for those selectors. Did you try reselecting?

Can you tell me what the Plan and Build selectors are set to on the Flight gen page for that profile?

Would be very helpful to for me to know what the setting was.
