ND - no data (airport info for example)


ThomasA

Recommended Posts

Got version 1.1, and using it on P3D2.4.

In the navigation display (ND) I dont get any data on waypoints and airports.

Are there specific configurations I need to do? Other plugins?

I've had the same problem, using Navigraph as data source.

Try switching to NavDataPro in the Aerosoft Airbus Configurator. That did the trick for me.

Seems the bus is still not happy with Navigraph :glare_s:

There is another thread about this in the MDCU Left section of this forum.

I am using Navdata pro I think, but I will verify when I get back from work.

But say I select navdata pro, do I need to install that additionally, or does it already come bundles with the installion of the a318?

I have verified that Navdatapro i selected in the config manager. However the problem persists, no navigational data visible in the ND

I have tried un- and reinstalling the product to no avail.

jsut to make sure, what do you exactly mean by this:

What happens when you load a flighplan?

Can you enter a flightplan manually?

I thought that it should be possible to see nearby airports and waypoints without entering a flight plan (as with the ngx).

I tried entering a departure airport, KLMT, then I got error message "not in database".

Attached is a screenshot showing the ND display with no airport or waypoint info

Did you update your navigation database (NavDataPro or Navigraph)?

When you open the fuelplanner do you get a message like Navdata airports.txt file not found? -> Then you should update your navigation database. Then it should work.

I now found the error.

In the file location:

E:\Prepar3D v2\aerosoft\Airbus_Fallback\NavDataPro

it turns out that navdatapro archive is not unzipped. After unzipping it I am now getting waypoint and airport info in the ND.

So apparantly something must have gone wrong during the installation, even though I made sure to turn off virus scanner. I also uninstalled and reinstalled 3 times with the same result.

Honestly I would have appreciated a little bit more humility from Aerosoft support, instead of just saying "everything works as it should".

In any event I think its a great bird and I am enjoying it a lot.

Dear Gents,

I just purchased the v1.1 from simmarket today and I have the same issue. The file is not unzipped. You need to provide to simmarket the right installer I guess.
