This means another AFCAD is in use, instead of the one that comes with the scenery. You can check which AFCAD GSX is using, by selecting the "Customize parking position" option in the menu: the editor indicates the name of the AFCAD in use.

http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=rhu8mo&s=5 this is where i get stuck

That's exactly the problem I described in that thread. I'll repeat it here:

It's because you added your scenery areas manually, by clicking *inside* the scenery folder, so FSX appends a \scenery at the end of the path, which is a bit out of standard (all default sceneries and all 3rd party sceneries with an installer don't add a \scenery to the path), so GSX gets confused by this, because it appends another \scenery string on its own, since the path usually doesn't end with \scenery.

You can fix this by doing a search & replace to fix all the wrong areas in your scenery.cfg, replacing \scenery with \ (just a backslash) should work. The scenery.cfg is located in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\FSX\Scenery.cfg, and it's strongly suggested you do a backup *before* editing, in case anything goes wrong with the search & replace.

However, we just made an update for the program today. If you reinstall GSX now, it will download the updated files that should fix this issue without having to modify your scenery.cfg
