Xplane 12 unable to update

Hi Ian

I am having the same problem in XPLANE 12 as i did with xplane 11


I cannot seem to figure out how to update the FMS navdata



Can u please guide me on how to update the FMS in XPLANE 12 if any more Pics help just let me know and i will send them
THANKS for all the help really do appreciate it…not getting as good service else where

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/

I will try and let you know Thanks

NO CHANGES

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

Thank you Ian
That is a very detailed and easy to follow explanation .I will execute it and let u know

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.

Hi Ian
I hope all is well. Ian I cannot seem to get the FMC to update and I’m wondering if its where the Nav Data folder is located?
Thanks for the help
Gerard

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
Ian

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


steps


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
Gerard

In Settings, please confirm you have X-Plane path as F:\X-Plane 12.
