Hi there, I have just installed V4.1.4.272 and tried both "Quick Plan" and loading an old flight plan file and when I open the plan Elevation page(window) I get no data at all. Window shows: Height(ft) 0 to 1 Distance (nm) 0 to 1 Cruising Altitude is set to 10,500 Also is there a Discord server? Thanks for any help David. |

Have you installed the NOAA DEM tiles? (manual p 65) You can get them from https://www.ngdc.noaa.gov/mgg/topo/gltiles.html No, there's no discord server. Discord is too ephemeral, hard to search and not a particularly good match for providing support. |

Greetings....... I am also having the same issue. 1. downloaded the 'tiles' from NOAA 2. copied into 'DEM' folder 3. loaded P3dv4 plan 3. No elevation displayed To test the elevation data - re-installed PLAN-G ver 3 - added 'tiles' to DEM folder and elevation was displayed correctly. Thanks Tim (great job on Plan G, as usual) |

For version 4, check that you have the DEM tiles in Plan-Gv4 Files\DEM rather than Plan-G Files\DEM (v3). It's an easy mistake to make... |

OMG.........I've done it again !! (Forgot an important detail) Plan Gv4 - Elevation WORKS on the P3d Computer Here's the part I FORGET to mention - P3d v4 is on a NETWORKED computer. (FSUIPC - Wide Client) It does not work on the networked computer. Cheerss |

Which computer it's on shouldn't make a difference - so long as the tiles are on the same computer. Have a look in the log (Plan-Gv4 Files\Plan-Gv4Log.txt) - it'll say something along the lines of DEM file not found, along with a path (that may not be the exact text, I'm not near my PC to check) |

Okay......we've got it figured out. Success !! To be sure - I uninstalled - including REMOVING "Appdata\local\tasoftware\PlanG" And did a full clean re-install - including 'file locations' (first) Under "File / Locations" the (Mapped) Drive of Prepar3d.exe MUST be shown Under "File / Locations" the (Mapped) Drive of Scenery.cfg MUST be shown Once my Remote Computer could find both file locations - Elevation worked.
