Here is the query I sent to LM.

 

Hi,
Can you add a "Load Flight" button on the "Scenario startup screen" ?
Like that for exemple:



Thanks.

If you agree with me, go to the forum LM and press my request.

Thanks

 

 

Will do.  I find I miss it very much, to the point where I may write a very simple flight launcher if it doesn't appear.

And having the ability to create a flightplan!

Like it.

 

Also (this might be a really silly question but...!) how do you save a default flight on the setup screen? I must me missing something.

That's another option that should be added! You can't save a flight at all on the startup screen.

 

BTW Let's not forget that LM created this as being a startup screen similar to FSX... As the title on the screen says it only is a Training Scenario Setup! And I do have to say that various options are there without having to enter various subscreens first. But nonetheless, a Save and Load button would be great! (And adding access to the Options too!)

FWIW, I added my +1 to that thread...

+1 here, as well. I have one question, doesn't saving a new default flight cause the missing mouse clicks?

  Cheers, Craig.

For some it does: I never had that problem. The problem is solved (workaround) by editing one line in the saved file.

So you can't actually save a flight startup in P3Dv2 at the moment? I wonder why LM missed that out??

You can save and load flights but not when you are on the startup screen. You can only do that when you are in the plane. The same goes for access to the options (although you can select a graphic profile you might have saved earler) and the flightplanner. The startup screen only lets you setup some basic things (as can be seen on the screenshot).

I cant even save a flight in v2 period. When I click the save menu, my p3d2 crashes.

I don't understand why they took the perfectly good fsx front-end and ruined it. Where's the load? save? etc.. if it's not broken don't fix it... simple rule that works.  :Rolling Eyes:

P3D isn't FSX, it is based on ESP which was completely different product, though pretty much the same software. If there wasn't launcher in ESP, it sure isn't going to magically jump from FSX to P3D either.

I would like to see this "Load Flight" button added to, but also :-

 

• Ability to load a flight plan from that screen
• Ability to set aircraft Fuel * Payload from that screen.

 

Those would be fantastic.
