Plan-G / Re: Plan G & World Traffic Plugin
August 12, 2016, 10:06:34 PM
Found out that after Plan G installation for X10 plane using the XPUPC plugin, there is a setting in World Traffic that let u configure X10 Plane to select up to 20 planes. 

Then u go to World Traffic, select your Airport, do a Resync, go to World Traffic Radar and if u follow the instructions correctly, u will be able to track the planes in Plan G.  The only drawback is that since World Traffic radar can track up to 80 nm, you can only see the planes in Plan G up to 80 nm.

The cool thing is that using World Traffic (payware) and Plan G, when a plane is within 80 nm, and it is coming in for a landing, you can track it using the World Traffic radar and Plan G simultaneously until the plane lands.
There are specific instructions on how to set this up in the World Traffic manual.
Hope this helps !!

Plan-G / Plan G & World Traffic Plugin
August 11, 2016, 05:31:22 PM
Hi,
Can Plan G interface with X-10 Plane new World Traffic Plugin?  It will be so cool to track planes with Plan G taking off and landing using the X-10 Plane World Traffic Plugin.

Tim,
Spent more than 1 hour and finally found out on the Top Menu > Data > Display X-Plane 9/10 Data was not checked.  After checking it, that did it, works fine now.  Still have one minor problem, when i right click on an Airport icon > Show Airport Diagram, the airport do not display correctly. 
Please, see attached JPEG file.
Again thanks for all your help.

Hi Tim,
Due to a hard drive crash had to reinstall Win 10, 64 Bit in a new SSD drive.  Everything went fine as i had a drive backup, except for Plan G3.
Installed Plan G3 (v3.1.3.113) and build the database as per the manual, however when i tried the Quick Plan feature, after i type the first three letters for the Airport, i.e. KJFK the rectangle becomes red.

Also, when i go to View and check Map Overlays, nothing comes up.
My previous Plan G3 was working flawlessly.  Can't figure this one out.
Any help will be appreciated,
Thanks,

Mario

Hi Tim,
Finally, checked everything as per your advise and found out that after downloading all the files from NOAA. 

When i unzipped the files to the DEM directory, for some reason each file were unzipped with a folder.  I simply moved each file inside the folder to the DEM directory and VIOLA, everything works now.  Finally, i can now view the Plan Elevation.
Thanks for your help,

Mario

Tim,
Tried creating a flight plan as a .plg, reopening it and still Plan Elevation remains blank.  Any other ideas  ??? ???
Thanks

Hi Tim,
I created and saved a flight plan using Plan G v3.1.3 as a plg file.  I am running X10 plane.  When i click view > Plan Elevation still i get nothing.  Do I have to convert the plg file to fms to be able to see the Plan elevation?
Everything else on Plan G works flawlessly.
Thanks for your help ! !

Hi Tim,

So far I downloaded four DEM files and extracted them to C:\users\------------\Documents\Plan-G files\Dem.  Created a quick flight plan with 3 waypoints.  When i go to View> Plan Elevation, still nothing comes up.  Attached is my log file.
Will appreciate if u can look at it and tell me what's wrong.
Thanks for your help,

Mario

Tim,
Thanks

Hi,
Have been running Plan G v3.1.3, Win 10 successfully for a while now.  Everything works fine, except the Plan Elevation.  Downloaded and installed the DEM files in the correct folder but still Plan Elevation shows nothing.  I figure that maybe Win 10 have something to do with it.
Does anybody  in this forum have had the same problem?
Thanks in advance for any input.

Mario
