mleuck Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Is there a way to show the VATSIM ATC control regions on v2 AM I missing something or is it not possible to show the ATC control regions? A controller got after me for not knowing I was in his control region. Thank you Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aivlasoft Posted February 16, 2020 Share Posted February 16, 2020 Hi Michael, as soon as an ATC region (aka FIR) becomes active, it will be depicted on the map in EFB v2. Inactive FIR boundaries will not be depicted. "Active" means, a controller has logged in to one of the ATC services assigned to this region, the region is properly defined in the definitions file and the controller is using a callsign which is also properly defined in the definitions file, and the region has a boundary assigned. You see, a lot of points which must be fulfilled and unfortunately this is not always given. If such happens again, immediately take a copy of the file "C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp\downloadVatsim.tmp" (which is the latest downloaded data). Then upload this file here and let me know which ATC region / FIR was not active. Please also check whether your EFB installation is up-to-date (build #114).

mleuck Posted February 17, 2020 Author Share Posted February 17, 2020 Thank you. To date, I have never seen the regions active. I will follow your instructions and post. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you select the proper Online-Nework under "settings"? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mleuck Posted February 17, 2020 Author Share Posted February 17, 2020 I guess I need to pay attention. Originally, I chose VATSIM, but in some way the online network went to "none". Thank you very much for your help! Michael Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, it sometimes may happen that you leave the Settings-Page without confirming the changes made by pressing the "Apply" key Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
