I'd been hoping to have a go at the missions via P3D (FSX ones and those I bought for e.g. for the AS Twotter and Beaver etc). Some are okay, others are awful due to the scenery being different (where they are in FTX covered areas and I find myself spawning amongst a forest), though I can probably fix that. I can, of course, edit the missions as far as aircraft are concerned, but I am having an issue with P3D finding the path to the mission files, and I'm not sure how to fix it.

It's reading the path twice - so if the mission is in D:\P3D\Missions\Aersoft\Beaver missions it's actually looking in D:\P3D\Missions\Aersoft\Beaver missions\Missions\Aersoft\Beaver missions

Anyone know why it's doing this?

It also tells me for almost every mission, that there is no flight plan included (maybe due to the false path issue).

I do hope I can sort this, as I have a huge collection of missions I would prefer to fly in P3D than FSX.

Not sure what you're asking for there, Nev.

The missions work just fine in FSX, I installed them to P3Dv2 using the migration tool and get this. The folder tree is correct - some file somewhere is pointing the sim to the wrong place, but I don't know which file does that.

Okay, I found the way to fly the missions - the sim is pointed to "Aerosoft/Missions/etc..." to find the info, but in fact it is in the P3D/Missions folder.

Thankfully, it doesn't just say "can't find it, shove off" it actually asks where the files are located, so I can just point it to the right place now I have found them. Why they are in the wrong place? Who knows - might have been my mistake.
