Marshall01 17 Posted October 20, 2018 Share Posted October 20, 2018 Good evening I have proved that without the PMDG 737 installed on my system the wind request fails in an active sky networked set-up. It seems to relate to the wx folder for wind requests in the PMDG directory, that you don't get if just the pmdg 777 is installed. Surely this can't be right to have the airbus reliant on another aircraft being installed. If I have got it wrong fair doo's Please login to display this image.

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4161 Posted October 20, 2018 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted October 20, 2018 You do not need any PMDG aircraft to get the wind upload working. Aerosoft just uses the same format as PMDG (for a good reason ) instead of inventing another format, but as this file is not stored in a generic folder, you simply have to create a "fake PMDG" folder where this file can be stored by ActiveSky Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marshall01 17 Posted October 20, 2018 Author Share Posted October 20, 2018 Thanks for explaining that, but why does your install not create this "fake" pmdg folder to cater for everyone? So if I understand you, if I dont have pmdg 737 installed, I create a folder PMDG in Prepar3Dv4 and within that a folder WX. I must have missed it in the manual since I have not read it.
