February 26, 200818 yr Hello everyone.I can't save flightplans with my 747. After having completed the flightplan in the CDU, I press ACTIVATE / EXECUTE and then RTE COPY. I get the message COMPLETE but there is no flightplan there. I neither have any .rte nor .rte2 files on my computer.In another forum someone suggested I should have a FS9/PMDG/Flightplans folder which I don't. I created one but I couldn't save flightplans anyway.So I reinstalled the 747-400 with the repair option and also reinstalled the V1.1 update. Still no folder, still no saving possible.Can anybody help me, please?Thanks,Dennis
February 26, 200818 yr What Win version are you using? Are you running as an admin?Make sure everyone has read/write/create access to the PMDG and subfolders under it.
February 26, 200818 yr Author Hello,I use Windows XP Home Edition and my profile has the administrator rights.Regards,Dennis
February 27, 200818 yr Dennis,If you are sure you don't have a PMDGFLIGHTPLANS folder in your directory for FS9 I would suggest a complete uninstall and reinstall. Sounds like something in your install is messed up.Cheers, Mats JohanssonPMDG Flight Test Dept | Asus Z270-A | Intel i5-7600K @ 4.8 GHz OC/H2O | nVidia Geforce GTX 1070 8GB OC/O2|
February 27, 200818 yr Author Thanks, but as I mentioned in my first post, I reinstalled the 747 but nothing changed.
February 27, 200818 yr Dennis,I know what you said. You said you reinstalled with the repair option. I said uninstall and reinstall. There is a difference in the two methods. Please try the latter and see if the installer creates your folder and default flight plans.Thanks, Mats JohanssonPMDG Flight Test Dept | Asus Z270-A | Intel i5-7600K @ 4.8 GHz OC/H2O | nVidia Geforce GTX 1070 8GB OC/O2|
February 27, 200818 yr Author Sorry, Mats, I didn't intend to come across in a know-it-all manner. It has just taken me too long a search in manuals and tutorials, so I was a little tired. I did uninstall and reinstall and now I have a Flightplans folder with a lot of routes and get a confirmation for saving a route.Thank you very much for your help!!Cheers,Dennis
February 27, 200818 yr Dennis,Glad you got it all sorted out! :-)Happy flying, Mats JohanssonPMDG Flight Test Dept | Asus Z270-A | Intel i5-7600K @ 4.8 GHz OC/H2O | nVidia Geforce GTX 1070 8GB OC/O2|
