Here is a .rte a file I created in Vroute which seems to work just fine in NGX 737.
I am ot sure if this is the same format as used for JS4100, but you can take a look and compare. Anyhow it seems to work in NGX. Could you please tell me how to export a rte files from EFB? I see only "Export as rt2 " in my EFB!
See the attached file!

Haris,
The rte format used for the JS4100 (which EFB can write) is different than what PMDG use for their other aircraft. I've asked for some clarification on some of the values and differences, but I can only assume that they've been far too busy in preparing for their release.
It would be a long trial-and-error to write a handler without documentation (using the "guess-a-lot" method) and so I hope you can understand our reluctance to release something of unknown quality - something that we're not very certain of.
Regards,
I understand you and hope that next update of EFB could solve this. I know its too soon becouse 737 has been released yesterday. I hope you get the required information from PMDG soon. Keep up the good work!

Hi!
Just need to ask how do you export a .rte file from EFB? I just have a option to export a file as rt2 file! Thoose files works just fine in pmdg747 but not i 737!
Any idea howto export a flightplan to .rte file?
-
Same here! Really satisified with EFB!! Makes my flights so much more easier to manage. Keep up the good work guys!!

I am using FSINN as a online client. I just upgraded EFB to v.1.3.0 so there is a new tab "Online" in the EFB. I guess i have to make some setup settings to view the traffic online. I also notice that "TRFC" button in EFB is not available!
That maybe explain the missing traffic?
-
Wycliffe i guess you mean in System > Settings somewhere ...
I use default settings and it should be active i from the beginning I think.
Let me know if I need to change some settings to be able to view VATSIM traffic, becouse i cant find it.
-
Just want to ask if its possible to view other VATSIM airplanes on the ground?
Had a online flight earlier today with several other airplanes at the same airport but thoose was not visible at all in EFB??

I tried to use the link you provided to fix the route for FMC but it does not work for me. The NAT fixes are still the same and not formated after i used the generator.Like "41N060W 43N050W ..." I think the problem is the NAT fixes format in rt2 file, the FMC cannot recognize them. Maybe some other format of thoose NAT fixes is required to fix this kind of problem? I dont know.

Hi Haris,
Seems that no one of us has been using this feature in the past
After a "many-hours-of-googling-Sunday-afternoon", I finally found a description which explains how to implement these waypoints. I will fix this in EFB so you will be able to use this feature as soon as possible.
Great! Thank you for a quick support! Its little bit of strange that nobody except me use this export function of EFB. Thats the one of the reasons i am considering to buy a license for EFB. Anyway thank you for the help and plz let me know when you have solution to this issue.

Hi Haris,
I have the file and see the NAT fixes, but I will have to do research to see if I can find a PMDG format document to see if .rt2 files expect a different format or if it is something else.
If you have a known good .rt2 file that includes NAT fixes, I could deduce from that as well.
I've attached my first guess at the expected NAT fix. Hope it works, but it is a total guess with one vague forum post I found elsewhere to go by....
Regards
I did test to import the atteched rt2 file to FMC but no sucess. Sorry i dont have any other flighplan with NAT routes to give you. I'll do some reserach later to see how the correct file should look like.

Hi Tango,
(According to the forum rules, please sign your posts with your name - you may use the forum signature if you prefer to do so once.)
Urs is the PMDG 744 format specalist so I'll defer to him, but if you could please zip and post sample rt2 files - one with the bad NAT fixes as well as one with good NAT fixes - then I could take a look.
Regards,
I am sending you the attached rt2 file. The latest airac (1103) is used.
Note that when entering mentioned waypoints manually in FMC there is no problem finding thoose.

Hi !
I am evaluating the EFB SYstem before i decide to buy it. I like it very much and it is really helpful during a flight. The only problem i find is when trying to export a route for PMDG 747-400 FMC. On long flight including NAT routes it seems the export is not working as it should. The FMC cannot recognize the waypoints in the exported rt2 file. When i open the file the routes are there and shown like this:
53N050W
54N040W
54N030W
53N020W
I have the latest AIRAC in both EFB and PMDG but FMC still cannot associate to thoose waypoints. ANy solution to this problem ????
Loading a flightplan to PMDG 737NGX?
in EFB v1 (Read only, no longer supported)

Allright ! I have version 1.3.1 16553 installed and when selecting "save" i can only export as *efbr and *pln formats. There is nothing about .rte format! Am i missing something ?
