I have installed a Second copy of xplane 11 in order to test out some issues I am having with one of the default aircraft. I am trying with no addons to see which if any of the addons are causing the problems. I am flying from WSSS (Singapore) to EGLL (London Heathrow)
Normally, I use simlink to connect the Navigraph charts to my flight. Xplane is now in a new location (its a different copy of xp11) from the version I normally run.
The issue i have (see attached screenshot) is that it says simlink cannot find the flight. You will see that the flight is entered in the database in the FMC and I am currently flying between waypoints AROSO and KALIL. When I press the plane aircraft triangle in Navigraph charts it I get the message “could not connect to simulator, Simlink needs to be running.” Simlink IS running and it tells me “Navigraph simlink cannot detect a flight in your simulator”. Why cant it detect the flight which is clearly running?
I hope you can help. When it works i love your products,

Hi Ian,(nice name :wink:)

Duplicate copies of X-Plane are not supported in Simlink. In Simlink Plugin Settings, make sure the X-Plane path matches the X-Plane copy you are running.

Hi Ian J

Attached is a screenshot showing my FMC (flight management computer) in the default Boeing B747-400:

It says the Nav database is out of date (shows a date range in 2018). You can also see that Simlink has correctly identified the path where xplane 11 is installed, recognises it and the FMS Data manager says the database in xp 11 is up to date.

There isn’t a duplicated link.

What do you suggest?

Kind Regards

Ian

In FMS Data Manager :

  1. On Settings page, make sure you are running the latest version 1.8.13.0719. If not please redownload and reinstall from Navigraph.

  2. Make sure your X-Plane 11 path is correct, press Save.

  3. On Addon Mappings page, select and Remove X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 11 addons entries. Press Save, Scan and Save. X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 11 addons entries should be detected.

  4. On Addon List page select and update X-Plane 11 and X-Plane 11 addons entries.

Cheers
Ian

HI @iankidd ,

For Simlink,
Please clean the Simlink configuration by this and after that please reinstall the Simlink Plugins to the X-Plane 11.

Kind Regards,
