plug the midi out of the mpd into the midi in on ur pc

otherwise if ur soundcard doesnt support this (standard soundcard) then hook it up via usb.

U can then go into the options and midi section, and then select ur controller as the mpd if ur pc hasntly already done this for u (mine auto does it with my controller).

Try the Fpc plugin, thats designed for this purpose.

Theres also a way to use it on 16 (or more) regular channels which is a bit more complicated to explain (using a layer channel and reducing each of its children´s zone to one note). If you dont get it by yourself ill try to explain later as i dont got the time right now.

did u fix all your midi settings in FL?

if so, your plugins should be responding when u tap the pads

im thinking the the FPC should respond automatically if ur MIDI settings are right, but i may be wrong.

Select the Midi Input (Should be "MPD 24" or sth if connected by usb) in the settings and click the "Enable" checkbox

That was easy. Also remember that wherever you are in FL you can alwys press F1 for instant (and quite usable) help, great feature.
