Hi All,

 

I have been away from the sim for a few months and at my age (Old) this makes very rusty with sim things when I return---so I need a little help.

 

I just set up my new 2.5 version of Prepar and I bought a copy of the PMDG T7---I am finding it very difficult getting the flight plans I make on Pro ATC and or PFPX to load up in the T7 FMC. I have moved the files manually into what I thinks are the correct PMDG folder (you know PMDG flight plans 777 etc etc.) but they will not load (FMC/CDU says file not found when you request a flight plan or try to load via the company route select key..

 

I have made some simple hand done routes in the T7 fmc and saved them and they end up in my Users folder in a file called VEE routes but even these will no load up when I request them after saving them----is there some trick or place in Prepar v2.5 where these files can be place/stored/and then found and loaded.

 

I hope I have been clear enough---I love the way this new version flies---flew all the way from Ksfo to Rjaa with no OOM---but there are no third party programs loaded yet

 

Cheers and thanks for any help---off to a Dry apt---something all old people much too often do ---but then again there may be a fix waiting for me upon my return

Thanks again for any help

Click the link in my sig for helping with the 777 and OOM, Don't use Pro ATC so cannot help there.

Thanks David for the super quick reply--will read this evening when back from Doc

 

Cheers

For PFPX, I set the FSX folder in the Route Export page to my P3D root folder. After that, everything was getting exported correctly. I tried to set the Prepar3d folder with root folder of P3D, but kept getting errors when exporting, so I ended up doing what is shown below.
