RC4 can't resume a saved flight in P3Dv3?

Something might have changed.
Almost two years ago I downloaded it from "Useful additional programs".
It contaimed a file fxmltoflt.exe which I'm still using.

@agutz, any chance you could provide that file to Pete please and perhaps also to me. I'll send you my email address privately.

Thanks!

Strange. I've not re-uploaded in since it was first uploaded in Jan 2018! I wonder if it later fell foul of some virus checker on the host system. i think SimFlight moved to a new server a while ago.

As suggested by Ray, please send me a copy to fix the hosted file: petedowson@btconnect.com. But please rename it to .txt and ZIP it, otheriwse my (newer) Server checker might block it.

Actually, that's the same as the one here on the Forum.

It appears that the fxmltoflt.txt file inside is, in fact, the exe. It needs renaming.

I was deceived because using 7zip to open the file shows that file as a text file which on clicking appears to be a folder, with other folders inside. In fact those "other folders" are the sections of the EXE.

Your file, being a .RAR opened differently.

I think i'll replace the uploaded ZIP with a properly named EXE to avoid further such confusion.

Yep, rename it to as an exe and all will be good.
