you can correct it and make it work by useing sim director in p3d and loading the ccw1of4.xml.

Thanks for the suggestion Kandoit.

Received an answer from the developer that he doesn't have a clue what's wrong with CCW1 as well.

Have run sim director but still no luck. Will further check out how.

Any advices?

Tom

P.S.

Forget to say: Thanks Minime.

dont forget to back up befor you start (ie save the files or follders you are changeing

if you have fsx installed you can copy the categories fscategroies.xml file and all the banners ect over to p3d that will give you your the good life folder, you can copy all the addventures over most will work and fix the ones that dont with sim director.

or add this to the bottem of your FSCategories.xml file this will give you your (the good life) folder, dont for get to add the folder, missions\the good life

<SimMissionUI.ScenarioCategory id="{29A043AF-EB9E-4248-8A3E-D645309542B9}">

<Title>the good life</Title>

</SimMissionUI.ScenarioCategory>

</SimBase.Document>

if you are haveing difficulty loading the addventure in (sim director) copy your flt,wx,pln to documents\prepar3d run p3d load flight once adventure in, then run sim director,

in sim director, load file go to folder of your adventure (dir) and load the xml file then you will be-able to edit and correct the paths ect

it will give you a list of errors,

i had it all up and running but messed up with not fully under standing (reletive paths) trying to get back where i was befor.

the out come is that it will produce a CCW1of4.fxml and a CCW1of4.wx THE CCW1of4.spb file that is produced is part of resorces,

with-out the first 2 files wont run in sim director it requires them. THIS IS WHY the addventure IT WILL NOT RUN.

if you are puzzled by the large number <SimMissionUI.ScenarioCategory id="{29A043AF-EB9E-4248-8A3E-D645309542B9}">

it is just an id number and can be what ever you want as long as it matches the format i changed the first 2 numbers of the one above

hope this helps

Thanks for the explanation Kandoit.

it will not run as a mission because it dose not have a mision resorce file (.SBP FILE IS MISSING) as LM added a mission SCENARIO ect.

you can copy CCW1of 4.FLT AND .PLN,.WX INTO DOCUMENTS\PREPAR3D and use your resorce.PDF FILE FOR INFORMATION.

The strangest thing is: Day 2 to 4 from the same Colorado Camping Weekend Mission pack don't have the .sbp file as well but they could be run nicely.

There must be somethings inside the Day 1 mission that are different from the other three.

Anyway, thanks for the suggestion. Hope to get a reply from the developer soon.

you will find that if you put Colorado Camping Weekend Day 1 inside your lockheed martin\prepar3d\mision\tutorials folder you can start it but it will look for resorces folder and metadata, if yoy point it to the same folder it will run as though you had put your CCW1of 4.FLT AND .PLN,.WX INTO DOCUMENTS\PREPAR3D i beleave it is having a problem reading the CCW1of4.xml file.

i have run the same as above in FSX AND FIND THAT WHEN IT LODES there are large buildings (hangers ect)all round runing the same in in prepar3d v2 at least 4 large buildings are missing on the waste ground behind the plane so there is some difrences in the scenery bgl files for the airport between the two.

With the help from Kandoit, the issue was solved by deleting the reward entries and changing two of the AI planes that P3D doesn't support.

Thanks Kandoit.

Case closed.
