ckreiner 1 Posted December 11, 2017 Share Posted December 11, 2017 Well, there already was a thread (which was closed as "answered") but IMO it's not. Is there any way to update the Dash 8 to a current Airac? That's the reason why I've bought NavDataPro and it's still useless for my purpose.

ubersu 23 Posted December 13, 2017 Share Posted December 13, 2017 Hi, Just to add interest, the file format for the Dash 8 has changed from .mdb (Access) to .db3 (SQLite) with the .120 release.

szperacz 1 Posted December 19, 2017 Share Posted December 19, 2017 Just buy the Navigraph subscription, I did it (compare the reaction time of the two companies). Buying the NavDataPro was a costly mistake, but the last. They could at least point it on the NavDataPro description page that it doesn't work with the newest Q400. As it is now I have a yearly NavDataPro subscription (bought for the Q400) that doesn't work and which I don't use, which I cannot return although it's not consistent with the shop description.

copilota310 0 Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 Same Problem here! I can't believe it that you are not able to Support the majestic dash8 q400 in Prepar V4.1? Really???? Very bad for a product which have a temporary License System where the user pay a lot of money for those kind of Service.

Administrator Guenter Zehnel 77 Posted January 10, 2018 Administrator Share Posted January 10, 2018 Hello, we solved the problem with the new data format for the Dash 8. Within the next days there we will release a new version of our NavDatPro client which includes the support for the Majestic Dash 8 version 1.020.

ckreiner 1 Posted January 13, 2018 Author Share Posted January 13, 2018 well.......DOES it work now? For me it does look like it, but I'm unsure: Installing seems to be fine in the first place ("green" state) but it was like that before. After closing the update pop-up it returns to the yellow q-mark, installed not found and backup not found. Also like it was before. However, the file cycle_info.txt in the nav folder of the Dash-8 says Airac 1801 and that also is reported in the FMS when running P3D. So now what? Do I have the 1801 or not? Confusing.....

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4180 Posted January 13, 2018 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted January 13, 2018 Günter said that there will be a new version. So when you started NDP, did it offer an update? If not then the problem is still not solved. Link to comment https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/129020-majestic-dash-p3d-v4x/#findComment-861130 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckreiner 1 Posted January 13, 2018 Author Share Posted January 13, 2018 vor 6 Stunden , mopperle sagte: The path for the Q400 is not correct. Wot? Since when? I use the same path (im my case c:\FSIM\Prepar3D v4) and the nd.db3 is found in C:\FSIM\Prepar3D v4\SimObjects\Airplanes\mjc8q400\nav as well as C:\FSIM\Prepar3D v4\SimObjects\Airplanes\mjc8q400\nav\NDP_Majestic_back. Timestamp is Jan 7th which fits Airac 1801. So far so good, I just wonder why NDP says "not found" for both current and archived Airac.

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4180 Posted January 13, 2018 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted January 13, 2018 1 hour ago, ckreiner said: Wot? Since when? Simply because the Q400 navdata are not installed in the P3d root folder. Maybe the new version of NDP is simply not correct working for any reason. I cant check it by myself as I have no access to my Sim-PC, but can check it on Monday.

ckreiner 1 Posted January 13, 2018 Author Share Posted January 13, 2018 does not compute, Sir. I used the path as above and obviously NDP knows how to handle that. Otherwise there would be no explanation why the files are in the Majestic folder on my PC.

Deputy Sheriffs mopperle 4180 Posted January 15, 2018 Deputy Sheriffs Share Posted January 15, 2018 Sorry Gert, back home again and checked and indeed the correct path is the root folder. In my case files are placed correctly and show correct in the Q400, but what you see in NDP is not correct. Already handed it over to Aerosoft.

Administrator Guenter Zehnel 77 Posted January 15, 2018 Administrator Share Posted January 15, 2018 Hallo Gert, I found the mistake. It was a missing "\" in the cycle_info_path entry in the base_ini.xml. Please replace the base_ini.xml in the folder C:\Aerosoft\NavDataPro\bin with the attached file. NavDataPro should now show the intalled cycle correctly as well as the backup. base_ini.xml Link to comment https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/129020-majestic-dash-p3d-v4x/#findComment-861414 Share on other sites More sharing options...
