I know PFPX should be placed here:
D:\P3Dv4\Captain_Sim\navigation\routes

But not sure what format it should be. pl or rt files?
  

Kind regards&&Capt. Frank Rose

I'm not sure if there is some other format to export and how to do it...  When I use the standard PFPX export and then CDU RTE REQUEST SEND the loaded waypoint names all say "cannot read".

Thanks

Ok, answering my own question in case this helps someone searching for the same...

I was able to successfully read a PFPX flightplan into the CDU by normal Export from PFPX to Prepar3d (<Documents>\Prepar3D v4 Files) and then in the CDU reading the flightplan using:
RTE,
[LSK3] REQUEST SEND,
[RSK6] FLTSIM FPLS

The key here is not to try to read the PFPX flightplan directly as a CO ROUTE, but as an IMPORT FS FPL.

I'm hoping there will be a way to load a PFPX generated flightplan as a CO Route so that SIDS and STARS load as such instead of just waypoints as they do when you load a FS flightplan.

I never save a flight plan with the SID or STAR, only the the main route between the departure and arrival airports. That applies to routes I create in the default Flight Planner, FSC9, or PFPX. It always seems to work better if I add them to the route after I've loaded them.

The trade off is that default ATC won't know about your SID or STAR if you do it that way.  That's why I usually load my SID/STAR in PFPX.

And they do if you create a route with SID and STAR in PFPX?
Just asking because PFPX has been uninstalled for quite a while, so obviously I haven't used it lately.

Hi,

There is a strange issue importing flightplans when using PFPX for flightplaning.
The route flightplan is just partially loaded in to the FMC, ie its just the departing airports SID that is imported.

From the last waypoint in the SID I have to manually insert all waypoints all the way to the destination airport.

Anyone else having this strange behavior?

I am using P3D v 4.2 and latest hotfix installed

So after uploading my flight plan to the FMC, I see errors 1 error 1, error 1 and so on instead of my actual way points. Am I doing something wrong? The flight plan was created with PFPX. Thanks.

Has PFPX updated their exporting of Captain Sim routes to the 757 III .rt format yet? If not, that's why you get an error when loading the route you created with it. Try saving the PFPX as a standard P3Dv4 Flight Planner route, then load it in the CDU.

To answer your question, I am not sure. The image posted shows Captainsim export option, though I am not sure what models its for. So I decided just to point t to CS routes folder. In any case, I will try what you suggested. Thank you.

Exactly. Thanks, Mark.

SO I was able to get routes imported using jspringe suggestion, but I still see other problems:

1). If I enter routes manually or import from P3Dv4, I can only select runways and SIDs for departure airport, but nothing happens for Destination airports. How do I resolve this?

2). Whats the best way to remove or clear routes that are automatically loaded after a cold and dark startup?

1) After inporting a standard P3D Flight Planner route, I always redo the SID and STAR/TRANS, then tidy up any loose ends, which can be excess entries that can happen if you save a route with the SID/STAR already added, as can be done with PFPX, and FSC9.

2) If there is a route already loaded, go to the route page and enter the current airport code into ORIGIN (LSK1L), and the route is cleared.

Hi
I have some problems with the Boeing 757-200III FMC.
I make a route in PFPX, eg. from EKCH to BIKF.
When I acitvate the FMC, and then ckick at the LEG button, there are no legs, only error at every line.

The route that PFPX creates for Captain Sim, are the old .rt format used by the 757 Captain v4.6 and 767 Captain v1.5, not the new version udsed by the 757 Captain III. The best thing to do, is save the route as a standard P3D route (saved to Documents\Prepar3D v4 files folder), then load it into the 757 III CDU.

PFPX export to FMS
Reply #20 - Aug 5th, 2018 at 9:14pm

Hello,

I'm currently dealing with another issue (ACE) and I have uninstalled and reinstalled multiple times. I'm currently running ver 1.2 and other than ACE not working, I'm also having issues with loading the FMC with a flightplan exported by PFPX.

I'm hoping someone can provide the correct path for the FMS to be able to read the FP correctly in P3D v4. It appears the file is being saved as ".rt" format which I believe is the correct format.

The thing to do is to save the PFPX route to the Documents\Prepar3D v4 Files folder as a standard P3D v4 .pln, then load it into the CDU (RTE > SEND (LSK3L) > FLTSIM FPLS (LSK6R) > Select your saved route).

That is because PFPX uses the old .rt format (the format used by the 757 v1.5, and 767 v1.4), and not the new .rt format used by the 757 III.

Save the PFPX flight plan as a standard P3Dv4 flight plan (.fxml), then load it into the CDU.

I have this problem too (FSX). If I manually enter and save the route, this happens in the routes folder in the rt. format. If I also define this folder in PFPX for the CS 757III, then PFPX saves the route in the rt. format, but I get only error messages for each waypoint when calling.

The PFPX devs have not updated PFPX to the new .rt format used in the 757 III, so naturally saving a .rt from PFPX in the P3Dv4\Captain_Sim\757-III\routes folder isn't going to work.

Unfortunately, the .rt format that PFPX works with, is the old CS 757 v4.6, and CS 767 v1.5, which does not work with the CS 757 III.

I am not sure whats happening here, but ever since the last two updates, this is what I get when I retrieve flight plans into the FMC database that was created by PFPX latest version. I have reinstalled both the 757 and PFPX but I still continue with this issue. Can anyone help please? Thanks.

Save the PFPX flights in the default FSX/P3D format (.PLN), then load it into the CDU.

All I see after loading a Co Route (.rt route saved by PFPX), is the name of the Co Route, and nothing in the LEGS, or RTE, pages.

I know PFPX should be placed here:
D:\P3Dv4\Captain_Sim\navigation\routes

But not sure what format it should be. pl or rt files?

I tried that and it came up with Error, after Error as waypoint names, so I reverted to using the FSPlans option lower right, and works perfectly, ofcourse, after I have exported it for other planes too, as well as P3D.

PFPX flight plans/routes should be saved in the default P3Dv4 .PLN format, in Documents\Prepared v4 Files, and not in X:\Prepar3D v4\Captain_Sim\navigation\routes, as it does not save in the newer Captain Sim .RT format. It only saves in the older .RT format compatible with the oder CS 757 v4.6, and CS 767 v1.5.

Hi Guys,

thanks for the, quite long and confusing, explanation.
Is it so hard and complicated for CS to export routes like all other developers?

I am really a fan of the Boeing 757, but these ongoing bugs and complicated usage of this add-on really bothers me.

Every Add-On has it's simple Export-Function directly linked with PFPX/Simbrief, only CS is not getting it working.

PFPX saves the reoute in the older .RT format for the 757 v4.6, and 767 v1.5, and not for the 757 III (or 777).
The best thing to do, is to save the PFPX route as a default P3Dv4 .PLN, then load it into the 757 III CDU - RTE page > SEND (LSK3L) > FLTSIM FPLS (LSK6R), then scroll through the pages until you find the route you saved, and select it to load it.

Please do something about the errors we get from uploading routes into the FMC.. I like being able to Load Routes into the FMC from PFPX and so forth yet, when we do it, I always get a bunch of errors and have to go through too delete the errors when you try to build a route into the FMC..

What errors? When errors? Have you read the previous 3 pages?
