That's it, Oskar.
Thanks. Had clean forgotten to re-install it. Hopefully should get it back up and running tonight.

After a GSX file or a scenery file completely screwed up a perfectly running P3Dv4, have had to a complete re-install, including EFBv2
So, can someone kindly tell me why, despite creating a Company Route via PFPX, the aircraft still stills at default LSZH when I have P3Dv4 up and running and want the aircraft I select, whatever it may be, to be that that airport as per the flightplan attached? Is it my fault or it a bug?
Thanks

Thanks for that reply. That answers it all for me. Will continue using my EFBv2 and despite my infant rumblings, initially, mainly because I was a noob, works beautifully now
-
Just the answers I was seeking too.

Just a small question, now that I have EFBv2 fully functioning correctly,and credit where credit is due, doing a fantastic job. Well Done AivlaSoft.
Out of curiosity sakes, can the ground chart be imported or exported whichever the case maybe, into the PMDG 747-8i EFB display? If not seems I may have to up my Subscription to Navigraph and get the charts as well.

from that I see that you are not using the latest updated PFPX 1.28.9i. I
This is what my PFPX reports itself as. And that is the latest file as downloaded from FlightSimSoft.
Odd, this time, on a different route, again, created by PFPX, EFB this time does display the routing in a different PMDG aircraft, the 737-700. I changed nothing between the last flight and this

Direct Uplink in EFB or in the PMDG 747-400 FMC?
The 747-400 uses ACARS, so the it uploads a link from it to the FMC, which is the recommended method, and has worked very successfully for every single PFPX-created flightplan.

Wanted to try my newly-bought FSDT's KSDF(Louisville), a cargo hub, in the PMDG 747-400F Atlas Air repaint, headed for Frankfurt(EDDF). What was wrong with selecting those two departing and arrival airports? Hence, chose PFPX to find me a flightplan, which it did, which I used in PMDG aircraft with no issues, except in EFB

Ray, why is this happening yet again?
I create a route with PFPX, I save it, it gets saved in the EFB2/Client/Routes folder, where KSDFEDDF01.ebr is clearly saved, yet, EFBv2 Client cannot display it when I try to enter that FPL/Company Routes, etc. Then when I do Internet via Route Finder, guess what? It will not accept the route because of of NAT track nonsense>
This EFBv2 is driving me up the wall! 10% of the time it works, the other 90% it clearly does not. -
Done already Ray

Thanks. I just checked the prices and the maps are expensive. But 12 months of FMS data is now 31 Euros, a modest increase on last year.
Yes, I was shocked, Ray as I only paid €25.08 last year and now it's shot up to €31.08. Quite a jump.
Thought as a returning customer I may get some sort of discount. Doubt I will be renewing again if they keep hiking the Subscription each year.

That's why I approach you, Ray.

Hi Ray, now that you have broken down the Navigraph subscriptions costs so lucidly, it now makes a great deal of sense. It's not like I am going to be starving for the lack of £2/month. For some obscure reason I had it in my ageing brain-cells it was like £10-20, or €10-€20/month, or circa £200, etc.
Deal. Am now going to re-subscribe to Navigraph. You've always been a voice of logic, reason.
Thanks, Ray -
Fair point, Ray, but I remember the days when there was no Navigraph, Aerodata, etc, and sims ran perfectly. Even today, a sim plane can be flown from point A to point B without necessarily a subscription to this and that. If I were to calculate balancing the costs of a repeated monthly subscription to Navigraph/Aerodata/et al as against a one-off piece of software like EFBv2 and then completely binning it never to use again, the ditching EFB, PFPX, etc is a far more economical sense.
-
Mia Culpa, Mia Culpa!
After I had configured PFPX to export to the correct EFBv2 Client/Routes folder, at last, I got a PFPX-created flightplan to use in conjunction with the PMDG's FMC on a routing UK2000 EGCC to FSDT LSZH.
Thanks to the assists I have had here to get me there despite my occasional narky-ness.
And BTW, my Airac is current too, but I will think about resurrecting my Navigraph subscription. It's just such an on-going expense. I don't have to buy a new sim every month
Now I feel I can fully enjoy EFBv2 as much as I enjoyed v1, if not better as I worked my way around the software.
-
Thanks to both as I gave up my subscription to Navigraph that I was not using as I had been cheesed-off with the flightsim scenario by then, so saw no point in shelling out every month to a developer whose products I did not use.
Will try your efbr, Ray. Thanks.

You need to be specific and paste a plan that does not work for you. Navigraph cycle used to create it is also required.
I’ve used PFPX for ages with EFB both v1 and v2 during beta testing. It works but you have to abide by the rules.
Yes, having to run things with Admin privileges is a pain but that’s down to Win 10 and not EFB. In any case it’s easy to setup a shortcut to run with admin privileges automatically. Google it if necessary.
So, Ray, as you state, PFPX Flightplanner works fine with EFBv2?
Then perhaps you can shed light why this crops up despite me having created a PFPX Flighplan and exported it to the correct folder? As per the PFPX generated Flightplan, the Origin ICAO is plainly clear to see in the attached image, yet, EFBv2 does not want to know. So, in EFB's FPL, which Origin ICAO code does it want? For the vast number of years I have used flightsims, to me a 4-letter ICAO code was precisely that, a 4-letter code. So, does EFBv2 do things differently?

This is not true. EFB v2 works seamlessly with RouteFinder and PFPX. Please do not post such WRONG information. If you do not know how to do it, it does not automatically mean that it is not working. RTFM is always a good start.
Oh, it works seamlessly with Routefinder and PFPX? So, why then does it reject a Routefinder flightplan that is good enough for a high-end aircraft's FMC to accept? So, it means, I cannot use EFB to track an aircraft on its Moving Map if it's not going to use a flightplan in the first place.
V1 was my always go-to Moving Map add-on as I could not only track the flightplan, but I could also watch the STARS I opted for, the ILS path, etc. With this version, how far back does it want me to delete waypoints from a Routefinder flightplan it cannot validate, nor is there an option to do away with this validation a User can use?
As it stands, I am now, having to rely on the map of another unnamed Add-on to track my flightplan. So, what precisely was the point of purchasing this upgrade that is now sitting idle?

Okay, my error on that particular path. I hold my hand up

The answer is extremely simple and nothing to do with EFB. Windows 10 security demands you start applications with administrator privileges for them to work correctly. You will probably have the same problem with other executables running in W10.
Hi Ray. Thanks, I got it all sorted out but why does this program not accept either Routefinder-created flightplans that worked for donkey's years in v1 or PFPX-created.? Tried importing a PFPX-created flightplan that works seamlessly with aircraft add-ons FMC , yet EFB rejects it. and a Routefinder flightplan with some validation nonsense and no way of getting rid of this validation nonsense. If two flightplanning databases come up with the same flightplan that match up, why the validation error?
Never had any issues with either Windows 7 or Windows 1o when running add-ons. Active Sky does not ask me for Admin Privs

All well and good quoting my post with Forum Rules. What about me as a customer who has shelled out a considerable amount of Swiss Francs for a product that comes up with that kind of a silly message? Unless, I as a paying customer have no right to expect an expensive product to work from the off? Just shell out and expect a product not to function for what I bought it for? Right. Now I see where I went wrong----it's always the customer's fault.
As a long-term user of V1, I most certainly will not be making the grave error of upgrading to any version, again. Now, that is a meaningful remark!

Trying to run the EFB v2 Server before the Client, and all I am getting is Access is denied. Cannot even run the Client because of this error flag.
Why? What's causing i? A lot of simmers in another forum have expressed regret buying this upgrade. Unless this functions properly, I feel I too will be feeling that way.
Any answers AivlaSoft? Was perfectly happy with v1.

Finally, got it sorted. Thanks for the hint, Oskar.
