SAM Follow Me stuck on "Loading resources..."

Recommended Posts

I've bought the Follow Me extension, and after properly installed and activated, it's not working.

I open SAM main window, on Follow Me page and it's stuck on "Loading resources...", I can select a parking spot thought but it won't do nothing...

log attached.

This was in discussion while beta testing but considered unrealistic...

Are you saying, Follow Me operations in real life exist only for arrivals?

Feeling a bit desapointed here, I can't put it to work, I've just landed on KLAX, and it says "No parking location is avaiable in this location"... I mean, seriously? It's SFD's KLAX HD a.k.a. MisterX6! How can it be?

What am I missing here?

I don't know if it's true but this is what I was told, yes.

I got the same message today and this can be solved by doing the following:

  • Go to your X-Plane 11 folder
  • Search for files: apt.cache
  • Wait until search has completed
  • Delete all apt.cache files

The apt.cache files are speeding up SAM startup but outdated ones prevent the follow me process to work as they don't contain the information needed. It's safe to delete them, SAM will create new ones on next start.

I predict that you will see a lot of support requests on that matter. I suggest urgently updating with a new revision where every 10 or so xplane startups, the apt.cache are cleaned,so regular update can happen before the user gets in trouble.

In years of aviation enthusiast I always thought "Follow Me" operations existed both on arrivals and departures at least for big airports, pilots may get lost while taxiing to take-off runway.

I hope we get it as an option in a future update...

Situation update:

Finally I got "Follow Me" extension to work properly, looks like it doesn't go along with X-Plane 11.51 beta and a fewu plugins as well.

Thanks for all the help everyone.
