When trying to import FSX missions into Prepar3D, I always come across this error. Can anyone help me solve it?

I have replied to this one at FlightSim.com.

Hello MatGamerYTB ,

Your first screenshot error message mentions a path from the A:\
floppy drive
Just to verify if you are using a floppy drive?

[MatGamerYTB]

It's my SSD. A:\ It's one of his partitions.
Is the P3D V5

[JorgenSA]

I am not sure if it is possible to use FSX missions in P3D, but then again I don't know why not.

If it is possible, then you have an issue, and the file that P3D is asking for on your A: drive/partition must be there in that location for it to work.

What I would suggest is that you search your FSX installation to see if you can find that file there, and then copy it over to the A: drive/partition.

OK.
Just to verify your current setup.

P3D5 is on your C drive and it starts up normally, correct?

FSX is on your SS drive and you can start it up OK, correct?

Is your FSX the original FSX Deluxe version (on a CD) or the Steam version?

[JorgenSA]

Martyson,

1. There are 5 more or less common versions of FSX: Standard (2 DVDs), DeLuxe (2 DVDs), Acceleration (1 DVD), FSW (by Dovetail) and Steam (downloadable). The Gold version is not a version per se, but Deluxe and Acceleration in one package (3 DVDs). It can also be argued that Acceleration is not a version per se either, since the Acceleration DVD has to be installed on top of a working DeLuxe installation, the result then becoming Acceleration.

2. Kindly explain why the version and FSX location is important in any way, shape or form to the OP's issue (hint: it isn't).

Hi MatGamerYTB ,

Ok,

I did a quick test (FSX mission to P3D5.4.9) and got the Missions splash screen Ok but then the resources error when I started the mission (screenshots).

It looks like the missing resource could be the e.g., aircraft / path.

More testing will be required on my setup.

[JorgenSA]

Martyson,

If you had bothered to read the thread in its entirety, you would have seen that I actually told the OP that he needs to get that resource file and put it into the correct place.

Hello MatGamerYTB ,

I copied the aircraft from FSX (my second PC) to P3D5 (my main PC).

At least now I got the aircraft in the air (basic flight, screenshots) but I still need to get an Objects error fixed on my setup.
Note:
My setup is networked PC's so different than your setup. I am trying to xfer files to get a mission working. If it works then your setup should also work.


Have you made any progress on your setup?

[MatGamerYTB]

The point in question is: Finding the place where the objects in the mission scenarios are located. I don't know if even finding it will work. But knowing where they are is the first step.

Yes, I mentioned that in my last post.
Without the correct Objects and with my Resource Path fixed my mission gets converted to a standard scenario.

Are you able to get your mission in P3D5 as far as my last screenshots?

Can you post any additional screenshots of your progress?

[MatGamerYTB]

What's happening to you when you enter the mission, but it doesn't work, is the same thing that's happening to me.

[Martyson]

What is the content of your:

Documents (folder) \Prepar3D v5 Files\objectloaderrors.txt file?

[Martyson]

I had a look at the missions in P3Dv4 , 5 and 6.

They all use XML files and FSX does not.
