Adding weapons to a saved flight

Post by tucanto »

Image In a flight I did a ALT - Scenario - Save this resulted in an FXML file in Documents loaded flight ,
no problem.
I then went back to FXML file and added text for Bombs but on loading flight message says malformed xml file
Attached images of FXML file to show problem.

Hello,

If you're referring to an add-on capability you'll want to reach out to the add-on developer for direct support. If you have a Pro Plus license just load a weaponized vehicle and save again. If you don't have a Pro Plus license weapons are not available.

Regards,
Brady

Which aircraft is your friend adding bombs to and then dropping them?

Hallo there, he was using the 'Douglas Havoc' (add-on) but we used to use any aircraft in SFSX using the
freeware Weapons pack by 'Chris Sykes'. create a flight and save and add weapons text to the FLT (FXML)
file in Documents.

I have now solved the problem and Bombing raids successful I found the Panel Manager
in Alt-Vehicle and ticked the box Droppable Objects and then edited the FXML file with
text for Bombs.

Just to verify, is this the product you are using:
weapons pack
https://flyawaysimulation.com/downloads ... ns-pack-4/

Is the freeware developer providing support and is it an approved product for P3D v3/v4 Academic / Professional?
