    Have you read through this: https://www.pollypotsoftware.org.uk/support/user-guide/user-guide-git/16-installation/99-how-to-load-downloaded-aircraft-configuration-files.html

    yes I read the install instructions, and followed them with no results. then followed brains instructions with no results . are you willing to look at my setup if I can send screenshots to you?

    sorry I misspelled Brian's name. No disrespect intended.
  • eddmarinereddmariner
    additionally, when I follow the install instructions and use the wizard button and select the config zip file, immediately both gfit and wizard windows disappear. every time.. could there be a p3dv4 version or maddogx version discrepancy here??? is there an answer to this somewhere?

    Hi,

    Brian has done it wrong. What he has done there would wipe out all other aircraft configs as I'm assuming he has simply copied and pasted the main config files. If he hasn't then GIT doesn't just detect the files and import them.

    He needs to export them properly if you are going to get it to work.

    If you give me a link to the download I can double check what he has done.

    Thank you Steve, the link is on the pollypot software downloads page, under git aircraft configs (fsx/p3dv4),at the very bottom of the page.(Leonard MD-80 P3Dv4 (MCP PRO and MCP) v1 by Brian Thibodeaux).

    no sweat do your thing.

    should I now give up hope?

    Sorry, I had replied, but it was showing up as draft so I must have forgot to click send. See below:

    Hi,

    I have looked at the files and they seem OK to me, but I cannot test them as I don't have the aircraft. If the wizard isn't working, try importing manually. Go into Detective and import the MaddoxX.xml file. Detective should now have Bespoke Events in it. Then go to the MCP PRO tab and import the MaddogX_GFMCPPRO-0.xml file which should configure the MCP PRO. Make sure the MCP PRO is enabled in GIT, then quit GIT and then restart it.

    Best wishes

    Then go to the MCP PRO tab and import the MaddogX_GFMCPPRO-0.xml file is when I get the error and it looks like only one event is imported from the .xml file, but this may be correct. I do not know.
