  1. Uninstalling does not remove the license key for user convenience. After reinstall the key becomes active automatically this way. As long as the menu item 'license' is greyed out means that the license certificate has been recognized as valid and therefore you won't need to enter the key again.

    Is there a way for me to manually import the airport.bin file directly from my server and bypass the synchronization in my client?

    You can do this.

    Just copy the airports.bin from the Server's computer (C:\Users\Fred\Documents\AivlaSoft\EFB2\Server\DbBuilder\Ready\MSFSNG), to C:\Users\Fred\Documents\AivlaSoft\EFB2\Client\Database on the Client's computer.

    Important: You also have to copy the file 'Filelist.txt' from the same source folder to the same target folder as mentioned above.

     

    Regarding the network issue, please also check all cables (if using a cable network). I had the same issue some month ago and I searched for hours until it turned out to be an old cable which did not reach the required throughput. Just an idea ...

  3. Please see the license agreement, paragraph 3:

     

    3.1 The licensee shall receive the personal, non-exclusive and non-transferable right to install and use the software according to the documentation on a single computer. The use on different machines at the same time is prohibited.

     

  4. It depends on which GPS system is in use.

     

    As far as we could investigate in the meantime, it seems that with the latest MSFS update (AAU1) the GPS systems do no longer accept a flight plan loaded externally (e.g. by EFB). It seems that it is only possible to load a flight plan from the 'World screen' BEFORE you start your flight. This will also prevent from any external modifications inflight and therefore it will also no longer be possible to load a 'Zulu' flight plan while you are airborne.

    In other words, once the flight plan has been loaded, you have to manage your flight plan using the buttons, switches and rotary knobs given by the different GPS systems, G1000/G3000 and also GNS430/530 which are maintained now by Working Title.

     

    We are very sorry that obviously Asobo/MS or Working Title decided that the development of the GPS systems is going in this direction, because this way  EFB loses one of its elementary functions in combination with the following GPS systems: G1000/G3000, GNS430/530 (all maintained by Working Title).  However there are still a few other GPS-systems around which are NOT (yet) concerned from this latest change.

     

  5. Data transfer between X-Plane and EFB is done via TCP/UDP. If the aircraft symbol in EFB does not follow the position in X-Plane then it might be a network issue (or firewall). Maybe there was an update of X-Plane which altered the network (port) settings?

    If you could create a support file and upload it here I can have a look in the different files. Maybe there is some information which helps to find the issue.

     

  6. Thanks for uploading the support files. There is nothing suspicious logged in these files (no errors, no warnings) so I have to assume that the issue must be outside of the scope of EFB.

    I ended up completely wiping my PC clean of anything Aivlasoft related

    Did you do this manually or did you run the uninstaller? Manually cleaning is never a good idea because it might lead to unforeseeable issues of the installer when it runs next time for an update.

  7. When EFB Client is being closed, all the form states will be saved in the file 'clientSettings.txt' which is located in 'C:\Users\<username>\Documents\AivlaSoft\EFB2\Client\Settings' (default installation). Upon next opening of each of these forms, the previous states (location and size) will be re-applied. Because the monitor setting has changed, the saved states, mainly the locations, will no longer match the new monitor positions. Therefore I suggest to edit the above mentioned file.

    1. Close EFB Client if running
    2. Open it with a text editor (notepad.exe or similar), scroll down to the section '[FormStates]' and remove all the lines of this section
    3. Save the file
    4. Start EFB Client

    Every Client form will now be opened at the default location 0/0 which is the top left corner of the main monitor. Now you can move it to the new position and then close each of these forms. Finally close the Client to make sure the new positions of all the forms will be saved.

    Hope this helps.

     

  8. The frequencies on the ATC ribbon are provided by the data download from VATSIM. The latest download is always saved in the folder 'Downloads' on the Server's side and can be used for reference. If the active frequencies in this download do not match the requirements of the VATSIM ATC controller, I suggest to ask VATSIM for help.
