tbarker1989 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 I am having issues with setting the .air file for the MaddogX. I found the file it is in C:\Users\Tim\Documents\Prepar3D v4 Add-ons\MaddogX\SimObjects\Airplanes\MaddogX88 but the pdf says they usually are in the root folder\SimObjects\Airplanes maybe I am missing something here. Thanks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! Tim, This would actually be a question for the Leonardo Forum. Nevertheless depending on the installation system (and my guess that Leonardo uses Lockheed Martin's Package System) the term "root folder" may be a bit different from what you are used from FSX' times. If the package system is used: http://www.prepar3d.com/SDKv4/sdk/add-ons/add-on_packages.html then indeed the file would be where you located it in the documents path. No idea though what the reason for the request in this forum may be...😄 If you need the information to set the proper name in a profile, then just use the air file you found in the document path (without the *.air extension of course). That will do the work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbarker1989 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 Maybe I did not state my reason for posting here. I typed the .air file exactly as it is in the folder but the EFB does not recognize it. The MaddogX expansion is md-83-88.air and i typed it as md-83-88 and it does not recognize it.

tbarker1989 Posted February 21, 2019 Author Share Posted February 21, 2019 I just restarted the client just to try and it worked this time. It wasn't working initially but it works now...... 😕 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbarker1989 Posted February 22, 2019 Author Share Posted February 22, 2019 well the first time I restarted it it didnt work and then the second time it worked. So it was kind of odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
