Help needed! Creating Scenario Tutorials in v5.1

Post by HercFiend »

Hi all,

I'm attempting to fathom the intricacy of SimDirector in P3D v5.1

I'd like to have a look at deconstructing one of the sample tutorial scenarios from the the "Scenario Tools" page https://www.prepar3d.com/SDKv5/LearningCenter.php and from here work out what's what..... The scenario I'd like to get up and running initially is - First_Takeoff.xml https://www.prepar3d.com/SDKv5/LearningCenter.php

Unfortunately as this is a straight .xml file and (from what I can tell) v5.1 needs both an .xlm and an .fxml - it therefore doesn't work and errors out.

Can anyone tell me how to get the scenario working in v5.1 please.

Really appreciate the assistance.
Cheers.

In 5.1 I launched SimDirector and opened the scenario, First Takeoff by choosing 'Legacy Scenario Files' from the open file dropdown for file type and picking the 'First Takeoff.flt'.
