Start from saved flight

Recommended Posts

I saved a situation where I have placed the PMDG 737 at a gate at an airport.

If I load this situation from within P3D, all is fine. (running v 3.4.9)

If however I want to launch P3D by double clicking on the .fxml file, P3D will start but then disappears from the desktop and I have to use task manager to close it.

Hi,

Does the P3D icon appear on the task bar when you double click on the .fxml file? If so, Shift + right click on the icon and select 'Restore' or 'Maximize'. That might help.

Willy,

If you right click on your Saved Scenario .fxml file In Documents, go to: Properties > General,  look at Opens with: select Change and navigate to Prepar3d.exe, click open and OK... all .fxml files will then open with P3D when you double click.

Hi Jorge,

I don't think that's the cause of the issue. P3D is starting, but then dissapears. This means that the association between .fxml files and P3D is already there.

Indeed, the association is correct - P3D starts

Funny thing is if I start the 'Tampa Bay Tour' (as included in P3D) then it works. So the problem might be with PMDG
