Don’t you need to add “X-Plane 12” to the end of the box where you show

X-Plane 12 c:/users/dondo/Desktop/

Hi Gerard,

I presume the FF767-400 data is the same as for the FF767-300 which is what I have installed,

In FMS Data Manager, Settings, for X Plane 12 path use black folder to navigate to x-plane.exe and press Save

In Addon Mappings you should be able to select and Remove any X-Plane 12 and X-Plane 12 Addons, and hopefully Scan will detect the FF 767 and add X Plane GNS430 entry. Press Save

In Addon List select and Update X-Plane 12, X-Plane GNS430 for X-Plane 12 and any X-Plane 12 addons.

You should have:

Cheers
Ian

Hi Gerard,

In FMS Data Manager Settings, why have you changed to X-Plane 12 path to C:]\Users\londo\Desktop\X Plane 12 or similar. Please use the black folder to navigate to X-Plane.exe, Open and Save.

In Addon Mappings you should be able to select and Remove any X-Plane 12 and X-Plane 12 Addons, and hopefully Scan will detect the FF 767 and add X Plane GNS430 entry. Press Save

Please post to your thread at Xplane 12 unable to update - #8 by Ian which I have just reopened.

Cheers
Ian

Hi Ian

Hi Gerard,

What has changed since above “Hi Ian I followed instructions and IT WORKED Thanks Gerard” ?

Please do the same instructions again.

If still an issue, please post a screenshot showing X-Plane 12 path in Settings.

Cheers

thanks for the reply Ian
I went through the process again but this time everything seemed to be in the right folder. Ok first checked path and it seemed correct. If I open folder leads me to xplane 12.
Next I erased in addon mappings X PLANE 12 and XPLANE 12 GNS450,FF757/767/777 folder and reloaded them but no changes.
and a question if i update the current update in addon mappings does the transfer to the airplane or am i missing Thanks in advance Gerard

Hi Gerard,

In Addon List select and Update X-Plane 12, X-Plane GNS430 for X-Plane 12 and any X-Plane 12 addons. This is the part of FMS Data Manager where the actual update is started.

Cheers
Ian

Hi Ian
Updated was already done I just forgot to send photo. So I update it again and still not transferring to xplane 12. It almost seems like its not being read by the program …just a guess and i have little to no knowledge about this stuff
Thanks again for the help
