Hi guys,

 

Yesterday, I have been flying around in the PMDG Md-11 in a flight from Jakarta to Sydney. In the middle of the flight I decided to save fs and close fs to have lunch. When I got back, after loading, the FMC becomes weird. As you can see on the photo, the details of waypoint GULUM (301/FL340) is normal. While the rest of the waypoints have strange numbers. Such as waypoint OOD says 26941906 instead off 301/FL340. How can I make the rest of the waypoints display like waypoint GULUM. BTW, the top of cruise (T/C) and top of descent (T/D) waypoints/markers has also disappeared.

 

P.S: Everything was normal before I close FS. It started happening after loading.

 

Any help would be appriciated

Not trying to be flippant, but if it was a lunch break, just hit pause, then turn your screen off.

 

Complex aircraft, like PMDG MD11, NGX etc don't like being saved as you would a default aircraft. The panel state needs to be saved. I could be wrong on the procedure, so I am sure someone will give you the correct one.

So is it too late for me as I haven't saved the panel state?

If you use FSUIPC's autosave function it will restore midflight without problems. I tested with the MD, turned off my PC mid flight and restarted, all was good. Can be used for a lunchbreak too

Hi monsteen,

U are very helpful but I have some questions. How do you exactly activate FSUIPC's autosave function. Can you give me step by step cuz I am new to payware aircraft and add-ons. Thanks

And BTW, I jut saw that the autosave is only available for those who pay for FSUIPC4, can fix this without paying or do I have to spend more money?

 

 

 

 

P.S: Is it possible to fix this one, or I have to fly to sydney on weird numbers?

You may want to open a service ticket with PMDG? same question here What is a "Copy" ?

Enter FSUIPC menu from FSX and select Enable Autosave, select wich interval you want Autosave to make a restore point, for example every 10 minutes. If you have to restart you will find the latest savepoint in the saved flight menu in FSX.

You can try reloading the entire flight plan while you're in flight and then make the next waypoint you want to go to the next waypoint in the fmc. I've done this before but can't remember the exact steps, it takes some fiddling.

Do I have to have the paid/registered version of FSUIPC to do this?

 

Thanks for the help

 

 

 

P.S: Can I use FSUIPC3 for this or must it be V4

I believe you have to have FSUIPC4 to get Autosave.

Is it a copy of the MD11 (Torrent) or a genuine purchase ? Stating you got your hands on a copy, leaves you wide open to be branded a pirate.

Yes, that is correct. You can only use the AutoSave function with a registered install of FSUIPC.

How did you "get your hands" on the software?

 

Why don't you go to the PMDG website and create a support ticket.   I am sure once they verify that you are a paying customer that they will be glad to help..

 

 

BTW just to let you know pirated PMDG planes are known to wreck your FS install.  So if that copy is a pirated one, delete it and buy the software.

It's genuine purchase

Monsteen,

 

Thank you so much, I have fixed my Md-11 problem and the weird numbers has gone away.

 

Thanks a lot

 

For those asking, I have the genuine copy
