Hi, In Data Provider, Extras > Settiings > Navigation Data, follow the picture on that screen. Should be "drive:\(main FSX directory)\Aivlasoft". Then point the Navigraph installer to that same directory. You'll like this program. Jerry

Hi all, If this has been brought up previously, excuse me, and think of this post as a "+1". It would be nice if V2 of EFB had the ability to communicate with different flight simulators without having to rebuild databases when switching from one to the other. Jerry

Here's from the Microsoft website, referring to .NET 4.5: "This version of the .NET Framework runs side-by-side with the .NET Framework 3.5 and earlier versions, but performs an in-place update for the .NET Framework 4." As for the button problem. Right click the desktop > Personalize > Display. Is the font size set to default? If not, try it.

Hey Eagle1, Check this out: http://www.aivlasoft.com/support/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1564&p=9196&hilit=no+p3d#p9191

Toss a coin. Heads you re-install, tails you don't. Keep tossing until it's heads. Sorry, I couldn't resist. BTW, I've been using EFB and P3Dv2 for a couple days without incident.

Hi, From what I've read in "sceneryexclude.txt" and on the Megascenery website I'm guessing any Megascenery states/countries directories should be excluded. Right?

Not sure what you mean by "flightbeam" in the message subject, but it sounds like you don't have an updated AFCAD showing the new runways. Look for the file "kiad_washington_dulles_intl_v2_0.zip" by Allen Laughmiller on flightsim or avsim in their file library. Here's some info about the file: Airport: KIAD – Washington Dulles International Airport Location: Dulles / Chantilly, Virginia USA Airport Type: public Version: 2.0 (2011-12-29) Release Features: Excepting the main terminal buildings, this is a complete rebuild including the new runway1L/19R (with completed taxiways W2,W3, and W4), new signage, to-scale ramps and taxiways, enhanced executive aviation parking, cargo parking, and service roads.

Well you could do IFR flights and let ATC lead you thru the flight. I also visit FlightAware.com/live and "borrow" flightplans from real world flights taking off right now. I mostly do regional jets with a 500 mile limit so a lot of the airports I takeoff from don't have SIDs or STARs so I vector myself onto an airway. I also use REX and very rarely do I have problems with the weather disagreeing between FSX and EFB. Tiny differences in speed and direction sometimes. I have REX set to wait one minute after loading FSX, then inject weather every 15 minutes. I look forward to those times when the wind shifts right after I've setup my runway and approach. You learn how to program the FMC really fast, and EFB handles the change quite well too.

This seems to be the same problem I posted about for KSTL. Runways 7L and 25R are listed twice in "wpnavapt.txt" FRANKFURT/MAIN EDDF07C13123068 50.032617 8.534631110.5506800329 FRANKFURT/MAIN EDDF07L09186068 50.037056 8.497078110.3006800305 <-- FRANKFURT/MAIN EDDF07L09186068 50.037056 8.497078111.7506800305 <-- FRANKFURT/MAIN EDDF07R13123068 50.027542 8.534175110.9506800328 FRANKFURT/MAIN EDDF18 13123178 50.034169 8.525931000.0017800326 FRANKFURT/MAIN EDDF25C13123248 50.045128 8.586981111.5524800364 FRANKFURT/MAIN EDDF25L13123248 50.040053 8.586531111.1524800362 FRANKFURT/MAIN EDDF25R09186248 50.045825 8.533717111.3524800353 <-- FRANKFURT/MAIN EDDF25R09186248 50.045825 8.533717109.7524800353 <-- Jerry

Here is the pertinent excerpt from "wpnavapt.txt" for KSTL showing runway 12L listed twice: LAMBERT-ST LOUIS INTL KSTL06 07607063 38.746678 -90.381231110.3006300551 LAMBERT-ST LOUIS INTL KSTL11 09001122 38.759953 -90.409875111.9512200618 LAMBERT-ST LOUIS INTL KSTL12L09003122 38.751781 -90.366295108.9012200528 LAMBERT-ST LOUIS INTL KSTL12R11019122 38.753220 -90.377772109.7012200540 LAMBERT-ST LOUIS INTL KSTL24 07607243 38.756217 -90.357506110.3024300534 LAMBERT-ST LOUIS INTL KSTL29 09001302 38.746795 -90.383164111.9530200556 LAMBERT-ST LOUIS INTL KSTL30L11019302 38.738078 -90.347061111.5030200583 ;LAMBERT-ST LOUIS INTL KSTL30L11019302 38.738078 -90.347061111.7530500583 LAMBERT-ST LOUIS INTL KSTL30R09003302 38.738608 -90.339586111.3030200605 I commented out the second instance of 12L and reran the Data Provider Scenery Updater so I would not get errors about the FSX unassigned runway. Can't say when's the last time I flew into St. Louis, but I noticed this using the current AIRAC 1302 ver.1 from Navigraph. Jerry

Are you sure it's EFB throwing out the error message? I get an error when I close down and the REX2 weather engine is still active. Don't know if it's the same error as yours, but might get you thinking. Jerry

I'm taking that to mean automatic loading from a program such as EFB or FSC. In that case I can stop trying to make it work and enjoy flying. Thanks for your help. Jerry

First off, I have EFB installed correctly and all the different windows seem to be talking and hearing one another. One computer; FSX on monitor 1; EFB on monitor 2. If I load a flightplan in EFB for the Citation Mustang (GPS plan) it will successfully import into the Garmin GPS on the Mustang. Yeah! When I follow this same procedure with the PMDG 737NGX I still have to load the flightplan into the FMC via the company route line. I understand EFB will write (save) a PMDG routeplan but not read (open) one so I'm confused by steps 3 and 4 above. You mention an MD11 in your post (also PMDG) which uses the same *.rte as the NGX so how are you doing this??? Jerry
