Plan-G Flight Plans errors in the latest MSFS 2020 1.25.9.0 update

[jbieletto]

Good afternoon to everybody.
for some reason in the new version of the MSFS the Plan-G flight plans are not imported well, specifically it generates some points totally far from the plan and unlikely to fly, it is one or two reference points or waypoints located in the North Pole for instance. Everything was working fine in the previous version of MSFS 2020

Can you give a specific example, then I can investigate? Thanks.

Asobo are very prone to changing file formats and specifications from version to version, without any notification of what they've done. So we have to rely on people spotting things and telling us...

A thought: have you rebuilt your database since updating MSFS? It could be something as simple as the naviads you've used have been renamed.

Thank you very much for the reply.
I have already updated the MSFS database in Plan-G, I attach a screenshot of how to build the Flight Plan from BGGH, Nuuk to CYFB, Iqaluit

Here two images of how the MSFS builds the Plan

Thanks. Is it just the user waypoint that is misplaced?
See also the other thread here on this issue. I'm wondering if the behaviour change is due to the decimal separator in non-English languages (the problem doesn't happen for me). You could try editing the flight plan in notepad and swapping the separator ("." ",") in the lat/lon values, and see if that makes a difference.

edit: also worth checking to see if World Update 11 made any difference, although I don't expect it to.

(sorry for the delay in replying - been away with the day job for a few days)

This is a test build (just the exe file) that uses localised decimal separators in the MSFS export. Please give it a try and let me know if it fixes the problem.

To install:
- back up your existing Plan-G.exe to somewhere safe
- unzip the build 263 file to your Plan-G folder
