Hi, probably me not doing something correctly but when I enter in the pathway to my P3Dv4.3 folder and try and generate the runway data the MakeRwys program runs but is failing to add anything eg getting a 0 runway message. Apart from that, in a quick circuit everything else seems to be connecting. I have a lot of addon scenery.
Can you possibly advise where I might be going wrong?

Many thanks,
Rob

Hi Rob:

The problem has been reported by a few folks - we are working on a streamlined solution to this, but in the meantime here are the steps to take, as listed in a forum post I made earlier...





- If you don't have add-on runways you can skip this - FSFlyingSchool PRO 2018 for P3Dv4 comes with its own standard data and there is no need to generate more.


- This issue affects the latest versions of P3D (we are working on determining which ones) - if you are not experiencing a problem - please leave your installation of FSFlyingSchool just like it is.


- If you are having problems 'generating runway data' with FSFlyingSchool...

At present it would appear that if the free 'Lorby Prepar3D V4 Addon Organizer' is downloaded

from here...

http://www.lorby-si.com/downloads.html

and installed...

and then the latest version of the free MAKERWYS.EXE is downloaded from here... (note the version is currently 4.84 but the link says 4.82)

http://www.schiratti.com/dowson.html

and placed into both the FSFlyingSchool folder and the main Prepar3D folder

and then FSFlyingSchool PRO 2018 for P3Dv4 is launched and

'Generate runway data for P3D' is chosen...

...both MAKERWYS.EXE will run to completion

AND

'FSFlyingSchool runway data v 3.41' will also run to completion...

at which point - the task is complete!


If your system is working fine - please leave it alone - I don't want to create problems on a working simulator.



Going forward - we are working on what will be the next step to make this rather more straightforward - and automating as much as we can.

Thanks Jeff, I did look in the forum but missed that one.
It worked a treat and all is set up correctly now.
Many thanks!
