Selecting a route in the FMS says route loaded but it is not really loading

[ParadiseFlight 2]

Whether I try using a route I saved earlier in the FMS or a route exported from Simbrief, the FMS says route loaded when I select the route, but the legs page is empty and page 2 of FPLN is also empty and no star or sid is loaded. Attached is a sample route I tried loading.

That can happen if you don't press EXEC after it is loaded....

I had issues with loading flight plans and found it was caused by having some flight plan filenames with more than 8 characters in the flight plan folder. When I deleted those from the flight plan folder, the other flight plans worked again. Plus check if flight plan get's loaded into Secondary flight plan.

I just tried it. Pressing EXEC didn't help.

Hey you're right, it loaded as the secondary flight plan! I was able to then click ACTIVATE, and then EXEC to move it to primary.

 

Is that how it's supposed to load, into secondary?
