I also tried adding custom scenery folder. Made no difference to mine. Still gets stuck same place.

Tim, I have no idea which Airport is causing the 'tie_down heavy|jets Boeing North Ramp Heavy' error in my log. How do I find that out?

Cheers
Rob

As requested here is the log.

Hi there.

I have installed the V3 of Plan-G, but when I run it for 1st Time, and try to build the database for X-Plane, it gets as far as "Writing 20107 Parking spaces" and about 1/4 way through it appears to simply get stuck. I have waited over an hour, and it was still in same place. I have tried complete uninstall ( including V2 ) and reinstalled, and same thing happens in same place everytime.

Any suggestions?

Kind regards

Hi Tim

I have both Anti-Virus & Firewalls turned off, still not linking. I should point out, I am no expert with PC's so I may have not setup the Network properly. I have set the FSX folder to shared and have made it so I have to log on with a password to both PCs ( was that the right thing to do? )

I dont get an Aircraft icon, and it does not lock to my plane ( I have Lock option ticked, as Im guessing that it will lock to my plane as soon as it connects, letting me know I have it working.)

Sorry to be a pain
Kind regards
Rob

Hi there Im using Windows 7 on my main PC (the one with FSX on) and Windows Vista on my Lappie (with Plan-G on) I have set the simconnect.xml as below (copied from manual and changed to my ip etc)

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>
<SimBase.Document Type="SimConnect" version="1,0">
<Descr>SimConnect</Descr>
<Filename>SimConnect.xml</Filename>
<SimConnect.Comm>
<Disabled>False</Disabled>
<Protocol>IPv6</Protocol>
<Scope>link-local</Scope>
<MaxClients>64</MaxClients>
<Address>fe80::6c8f:d09b:9b90:1e77</Address>
<Port>4506</Port>
</SimConnect.Comm>
</SimBase.Document>

Initially in Plan-G it says FSX (SimConnect), But then it just keeps timing out. with message saying
Unable to connect to remote flight simulator (timeout). Check FSX is running, and that your protocol settings are correct.

I have set my Plan-G connection settings as follows

Connect with - Simconnect
Network mode - IPv6
FSX Computer - fe80::6c8f:d09b:9b90:1e77
Serverport - 4506

As im no expert with PCs im pulling my hair out trying to figure out what im doing wrong.

Want to use Plan G as moving map on lappy as well as Flight planner as it is so cool. Thanks to Tim Arnot for such a great piece of software.

Kind regards
