CurtS 3 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Hi, After an upgrade to AES 2.25 the function F8 - Move Aircraft to exact Parkposition don't work. If I push F8 I get Request Follwme to Postion GATE 1. Any ideas? /Curt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CurtS 3 Posted November 9, 2012 Author Share Posted November 9, 2012 Removed AES from FSX, deleted folders. Could not find any uninstall for AES!? Installed a fresh copy, but the problem is still there. I'm at ESSA, gate 11. /Curt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer OPabst 2091 Posted November 9, 2012 Developer Share Posted November 9, 2012 Did the aircraft moved in any form? There is a small change in this function in AES (see Release note), possible that here is an issue in some special cases. I will check the Gate 11 in ESSA, but need some time here. Maybe you can use the Slew Mode instead until it is fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edetroit 529 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I had the same problem at FS9 EDDL gate V02. My 742 was a bit nose out so I pressed F8 to moved her to the correct position but I got the followme car page instead. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not a big problem, so I can live with it for the time beeing. /Curt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudderduck 3 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Same problem with F8 key at FSX AerosoftENGM gate 13. Got the follow me car. Also no pushback after brake release with Pmdg 737ngx. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Developer OPabst 2091 Posted November 9, 2012 Developer Share Posted November 9, 2012 Ok, had checked it, not seen this issue. Will fix it, when I am back from a trip. Maybe two thing can help: How did younenter the position before? Via menu are taxi into? Was the engine off, before you press F8? Did the process at the gate starts before you press F8?

Did the process at the gate starts before you press F8? (Blocks at position) Hello Oliver, for me ...I selected the airport/gate from the FS menu. Engines were off and blocks in position before I pressed F8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rudderduck 3 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 Q: How did you enter the position before? A: Via saved default flight with Trike @ Engm gate 13 and thereafter aircraft changed to Pmdg B737ngx. Like I always do. Q: Was the engine off, before you press F8? A: Yes. Q: Did the process at the gate start before you press F8? (Blocks at position) A: Yes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe you can use the Slew Mode instead until it is fixed. Got the same Problem on any airports of the world, supported by Aerosoft AES 2.25! The Sounds: "Push the parking break" before I got pushed back, don't work either! There's a major issue on that new AES Version... but I really hope all the Bugs will be fixed in near future... Second Issue I think, is, the Refueling Car could be a little bit more near the WIngs of the aircraft when it got refueled,.. Sometimes the Refuel Car is far away from the aircraft... what doesn't look verry realistic... and it would be nice too, if you could give him a Man who does work on it... like you did it for the Catering Cars... Just as an Idea for your next versions of AES! Thanks a lot in advance! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hud635jk 102 Posted November 9, 2012 Share Posted November 9, 2012 I can also confirm this. It just happened with an PMDG 737-900 NGX at Larnaca's gate 45. I got there by the FSX menu and pressed F8 after I heard the "blocks in position". During the weekend, I hope to test this with other planes, to see if it's plane-specific. PS: Once F8 is pressed, AES considers you far away from any gate, and the only way to fix this is to press ESC and load the flight from scratch.

hud635jk 102 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 Update: It is not plane-specific as it happens with other aircraft too. I tested it with the Leonardo Maddog 2010 Pro MD-82. It also happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airbasil 49 Posted November 13, 2012 Share Posted November 13, 2012 What I had seen shortly... just someday's ago, was: when I get into position with my plane, and then would be pushed into the right position with AES, I press on F8. What happens is, AES takes my plane into the Terminal Building... as I was using a Boeing 767-300F from Skyspirit2010 at Stuttgart (EDDS) Cargo Terminal. Is this AES specific or is it an Afcad Issue?

Mike Ionas 10 Posted November 15, 2012 Share Posted November 15, 2012 Same problem here with F8. After pressing I get decrement/increment position and req follow me. Tested with 737NGX @ LGAV & OMDB (various positions) so far. Worked fine up to 2.24 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexvs 243 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 Same here. Plus the gas truck isn't under the wing but before it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John1604 6 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 I did had the same problem on EDDB, there was no sound anymore. I got also the message increase or decrease. I did try to release the parkingbrake and yes the pushback was starting without any conformation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hud635jk 102 Posted November 16, 2012 Share Posted November 16, 2012 It seems that when pressing F8 (to get to the correct parking position) one of two things happen: - if parking brake not on -> the follow me window appears - if p.b. on -> pushback is started Are you having the same behavior?

CaptKornDog 41 Posted November 18, 2012 Share Posted November 18, 2012 I can confirm this doesn't appear to be aircraft or airport specific as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
psolk 80 Posted November 24, 2012 Share Posted November 24, 2012 I can confirm this doesn't appear to be aircraft or airport specific as well. Can someone please confirm if this has been addressed. I will not upgrade to 2.25 as I use F8 and move to exact parking position frequently... Thank you, -Paul Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

psolk 80 Posted November 27, 2012 Share Posted November 27, 2012 That is a shame, I am still waiting to be able to use OMDB and 2.25 until this is fixed. KEWR has a particularly bad Afcad and I use F8 and Move to exact parking position almost every flight... Oliver, are you back from vacation? Any updates? Thank you as always Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leon74 1 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 The function works ok in 2.25 here if I ignore the Follow Me menu which pops up when you hit F8. Just follow the usual sequence. Marshaller still calls: "release brakes", press period, a/c moves and stops, Marshaller calls: "set brakes", press ctrl-period. Curious for 2.26 now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, this will work until Aerosoft has solved this. /Curt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hud635jk 102 Posted January 9, 2013 Share Posted January 9, 2013 It's been nearly two months now, since this serious issue exists, with 2.25. Is there any resolution-fix in the horizon? In the meantime, I would suggest that the best solution for this, would be to re-inject the old (up to 2.24) code, that works flawlessly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
