MSFS Data-Base compilation

[jsearl98]

I have downloaded version .269 (a couple of times) to a new PC on which I have Win 11 and MSFS Steam installed. When I compile the MSFS database it appears to do so - but when completed no MSFS data is shown when I select Display MSFS Data. In Map, I have large, medium and small airports checked.

Could you attach the Plan-G log file showing the database build (it's in My Documents/Plan-Gv4 Files/). make sure you do NOT start a new Plan-G session first, cos it'll overwrite the log.
Thanks.

When I try to attach the log file I get this:

ERROR
Invalid file extension: Plan-Gv4_Log.txt

.txt should be allowed. Maybe the file was too big? You could try zipping it.

Thanks. It's throwing 'Out of memory' errors.
Go into your Documents\Plan-Gv4 Files\Data folder and delete the Plan-G_NavdataMSFS.db file. Then reboot the PC and rebuild the database as the first thing you do in Plan-G. That should fix the out of memory condition.

I did as instructed but now the data base compiler seems to be going through the motions but when it has finished, the display MSFS data is not active and it still says "First Data" in the tool bar and there is a message saying that data has to be compiled.

Since my last reply, I have re-installed version .265. This is showing all the data except air spaces. Regards

It's still showing out of memory errors. Reinstalling would not change anything.

Here's a pre-built database you can use for now: https://www.dropbox.com/s/e75e7tcp71fzp ... S.zip?dl=0

Thanks. I have used the database file.
