JackSwyr 2 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 I just downloaded the new 2.03 and already have 1.28 installed. Can I use the PMDG 747 profiles from 1.28 in this new 2.03 version? Many thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Stian 11 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 When reading the other topics I see that the issue with losing all the aircraft profiles while upgrading is fixed. (But it is always good to take a backup anyway ^^ ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackSwyr 2 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 Ok, so I’m installing 2.03 now and it’s stuck on the Outdated database entries. It’s been running for 15 minutes so far. The title bar at the top does NOT show Not Responing so I assume it’s still working? 1.28 never took this long. I’m hoping there’s not a problem.

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted December 10, 2018 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted December 10, 2018 Can confirm this behaviour, killed it via the taskmanager, but no idea whether this had a negative impact. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4162 Posted December 10, 2018 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted December 10, 2018 And the problem is that you do not see whether PFPX is doing anything at all. The CPU load was at 0%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackSwyr 2 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 Same here, and I just updated the database with Navigraph but when I run PFPX I see it’s using Nav 1607. So it’s now not seeing Navigraph’s update? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Checking 10000 routes if you installed the supplied database is going to take a significant amount of time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackSwyr 2 Posted December 10, 2018 Author Share Posted December 10, 2018 But in Configuration is shows 1607. On the screenshots I took of 1.28 it shows the current database. So how do I now update it? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srcooke 422 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 What is the date/time stamp of the navdata.nav file in the same location. PFPX was closed when the navdata was installed ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

srcooke 422 Posted December 10, 2018 Share Posted December 10, 2018 You need to reinstall the AIRAC, the navdata.nav file is not that of 1813 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had v2.01 on NG1813 - I then installed v2.03 full, leaving my PFPX public data as it was in 2.01, rebooted... went into FMS data manager, reinstalled the airac for good measure, opened PFPX to be greeted by 1607. The cycle_info.txt was as per the screenshot above. In the end, I renamed my whole public PFPX data, reinstalled 2.03 again, updated the AIRAC (exactly as I did before), and copied my aircraft stuff back... It's fine now.

Cargostorm 98 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I have installed PFPX 2.03 side by side to the previous version 1.28 but in a different location. Is it now save to deinstall v1.28 via the Windows deinstaller without worrying about deleting any profiles? More specifially, will a deinstall of v1.28 touch any files under "PFPX Data" (the place where the profiles sit), which are also used by v2.03? I will backup the folder, but it would be good to know if anything else is touched required for v2.03. Cheers, Chris Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srcooke 422 Posted December 12, 2018 Share Posted December 12, 2018 I would backup the whole \Public\Documents\PFPX Data\ folder before uninstalling That is the only location of your data, the program files are installed separately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
