Hi Paul thanks very much for posting the solution to this issue. I hope this will help others to fix it too. Greetings to England, from the 'Zürcher Oberland', which is not far away from Buchs SG. Switzerland is a small country 😀.

Did you already read this post: https://forum.aivlasoft.com/topic/6907-efb2-is-not-forwarding-the-flight-plan-to-msfs-on-g1000-equipped-aircraft-after-su10/ Maybe your issue is related to the latest MSFS updates.

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.

If your computer works properly the delay cannot be more than 1 second. This is the frequency of the map update. If MSFS, EFB Server and Client (and maybe some more add-ons) are running simultaneously on the same machine it might lead to a bottleneck somewhere.

Thanks Colin, for your kind words. You're welcome.

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.

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. 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.

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

Could you successfully create a database?

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.

You first have to select the frequency on the ribbon, then choose whether you want to tune the selected frequency either on COM1 active or standby, or COM2 active or standby.

Sorry, but I cannot see anything on these screenshots because they are completely overcrowded. Could you please provide some screenshots where only the sectors are visible?

As long as the yellow caution 'Simulator' is indicated at the Status panel, there is no connection with MSFS. Zurich is the default airport which is selected after a new installation. From the Server's logfile I cannot see any issue, maybe you could create a 'support file' and upload it here?

Sorry, but this is too less information to provide some help.

Maybe this one from the FAQs will help? https://forum.aivlasoft.com/topic/2949-license-key-lost/

Thanks Ray for this information. I'm not aware of these emails and as to my best knowledge I didn't enable such a feature for this forum because it would make no sense at all. Should you receive further emails please neglect them.

Ray, I don't know what you mean. You don't have to mark the best answer herein, because there is no 'best answer', it's just an answer to your question.

You don't have to change the 'runwayMappings ...' file. This file is kind of a logfile and provides information about the mappings which have been created. You can easily define fixed mappings in the DatabaseBuilder. Please see the DatabaseBuilder's manual for details.

Hi Stas Currently we do not have plans to introduce this functionality in the near future, but we will keep it on our radar and probably reconsider our decision if we get more requests regarding this functionality.

Hi Ken, thanks very much for reporting back. I'm glad to see it works as it should.

Hi Ray, the shaded area is just the vertical view of the glideslope. It has nothing to do with a distance where you have to let down the gear.

I have checked the server and it is working properly. Please check your local security settings and try again. Thanks.

Hi Ray, although I have an idea of what you might talking about, could you please upload a screenshot so we can have a look at what you mean?

Hi Ken If the traffic is disappearing as soon as your aircraft is airborne then I assume it has to do with the map options of the world map. Ground map has different (better said, individual) settings and therefore it might be that traffic is visible on the ground chart but not on the world map. Please check the traffic options on the world map. If the Client window's width is less than approx. 1400 pixels, the map options get compressed. Then the traffic options are behind the TFC button.

Please create a support file and upload it here, thanks.
