I also realized that ECOM skips always Climb1 memo. It goes from TakeOff to Clb2. In A320 CLB1 was appearing longer.

Re: Project FMC simplified for Project Airbus

Your DLL.XML file seams to be ok for me.

Check now if XMLTools.dll file is placed at the root of your main FSX folder (same folder that FSX.EXE) and you can fly !

Re: Project FMC simplified for Project Airbus

As said Wulf, XMLTools.dll replaces the 2 old modules XMLVars and Loggerx with FSX.
So you have to delete the XMLVars and LoggerX group in your DLL.XML file.

If you have a doubt, post here you entire DLL.XML file and I will organize it for you.

A321FD-FMC.CAB file must be placed in your "FSX\Gauges\" folder (file is common to the 2 engines version)

Re: Project FMC simplified for Project Airbus

About tanks feeding order, FSX aircrafts are false. In FSX, wings tanks are used in first

Real sheme: Fuel must be pumped in central tank(s) before, after finishing by wings.

This is the reason of the fuel_system gauge; Get the true fuel sheme.
