Hello, I know LNM used to support FlightGear and I'm not sure if it still does but I want to use LNM for FlightGear since I started using it just for fun but LNM doesn't seem to see it's installed.  I thought that LNM automatically detects flight simulators installed when you run it, or is there some other way to get it to recognize FlightGear?

I would really appreciate help to get LNM  to see FlightGear is installed.

Thanks

There is a plugin or tool to connect LNM to FG but it seems the developer gave up on it:

I'll try to continue but I cannot do everything.😞

Thank you for your informative response, I didn't know that this plugin tool was needed to make FlightGear work with LNM.

LNM is a truly amazing tool and after using it now and learning all that it offers, I would never want to go back to flight planning without it ever again.  It makes flight planning so much easier no matter which sim you use (and I use many of them) and far more convenient than any other method plus the amount of features is amazing, I cannot believe you offer this for free!

I would pay good money for it now that I know what it can do for me.  In fact, I'm going to start donating every month what little I can here and there because I think LNM is so vital for planning flight simulation flights.

Alex, I understand you are not Superman and can't do everything yourself but I really hope you're able to find a way to keep LNM compatible with all flight simulators (or most of them) including FlightGear.  I also hope you plan to keep FSX compatibility because I still use that a lot and will continue to use it forever.

Thank you for your time, your hard work and for making such a wonderful and vital tool.

You're welcome and thank you for your kind words!🙂

I see no need to drop FSX. It is still used.

I have a question about using litttlefgconnect.  In the Readme instructions it says: "start the program by double-clicking "littlefgconnect.exe" but I checked every file and in every folder and there is no littlefgconnect.exe file anywhere, in fact I don't see any executables at all in the littlefgconnect software folder I downloaded.  The closest thing I could find is this file: "littlefgconnect.exe.simconnect".

I tried double clicking this file and Windows doesn't know what to do with it asking me: "How do you want to open this file?".  For the heck of it I changed the file name to get rid of the .simconnect extension and changed it to just "littlefgconnect.exe" and I tried to run it but I just get an error message that says: "the file or directory is corrupted and unreadable"

How do I run this program?  Am I missing something?

Sorry, but I cannot help with this program since I did not develop it. It seems the developer gave up on it 4 years ago.
