Why does FSC not list and display the RNAV approaches?

 

I have searched the forum but cannot find anything related

[FS Commander SID's & STAR's]

Volker, would car to share your method here with us too please - there are many of us with the same problem!!

[FS Commander SID's & STAR's]

Volker - I have studied those two sections extensively. The problem is, FSC does not display the SID or STAR correctly (as per the waypoints of the SID or STAR). As Ken said, the only way to overcome this problem is to enter the points manually into the flight plan - which makes the whole excersize fruitless.

Yes, the aircraft will fly the SID and STAR when one uses an aircraft equipped with a FMC, but the whole point is to have a correct VISUAL depiction of the SID or STAR without having to enter the waypoints manually. I more often than not do not use the FMC when approaching or departing an airport.

To have a correct visual depiction of a SID or STAR in FSC would be nothing short of bloody brilliant!

[FS Commander SID's & STAR's]

This thing is going back and forth with no resolution from either side

And I find this exceptionally frustrating!

Here is the Navigraph response:

Can we PLEASE get direction on this matter!!!

[FS Commander SID's & STAR's]

After taking up this matter with Navigraph, I just received this reply from VAVDATA (Navigraph)

the procedures are correct, but and thats important ... The FSC supports only direct waypoint from-to coding, means you can't display any interceptions, dme distances and so on. Therefore I must supress these phantom waypoints and export only fixes which are connected to another fix.

When you look, on every procedure the end-point is correct and most of the fixes too ... but you don't see any turns, interceptions, dme distance waypoints and so on. It has nothing todo with the Navdata because you see in other addons, that the procedures are right. It's a limitation of FSC and I can't do more. Sorry ...

Now what??

[FS Commander SID's & STAR's]

Does anyone please have any input in this regard?

Would be appreciated

[FS Commander SID's & STAR's]

That I am - both dated 1205

[FS Commander SID's & STAR's]

I hope someone can help clarify this situation for me or guide me in the correct direction

I have the iFly737 and FSC9.2 with AIRAC 1205 successfully installed on both.

The problem I am having is that although the correct SID's and STAR's are showing for selection, the display of these on the map is incorrect.

Within iFly, the waypoints that make up a SID or STAR are correct - but these waypoints do not show up on the map correctly which I find rather frustrating.

In particular, I am referring to the waypoints of the SID's and STAR's for ZA (South Africa)

How can this be rectified?

[Now here's a weird problem]

I assume you've already turned off Windows power management on al the USB hubs etc listed in its Device Manager? Having that enabled is the usual cause of your problem. I've never heard of a built-in fault like that on a motherboard.

You know what Assumptions are Pete :mrgreen:

But that being said - in this case the assumption was 90% correct.

You can disable power management via the Device Manager in Windows - but it resets itself once you boot since Win7 follows the Power settings and re-enabled mine. Changing the Advanced Options in the Power Management solved the problem

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction Pete - I don't know what the flightsim world will do without Pete Dowson!!!!!!!

[Now here's a weird problem]

I am currently experiencing a problem with my mother board in that it occasionaly loses a USB connection (frustrating I know and am awaiting a replacement from the supplier). It is apparently a known problem with the asus p8z68-v pro gen3 motherboard :???:

I use FSUIPC as sole means of axis assignment and calibration (FSX enable controllers is set to off).

The weird part is that the USB port will re-connect to my yoke and throttle (immediately) but the only way I can make them active again in FSX is to open FSUIPC and then close it again - thats all that is required to 're-connect' the yoke and throttle to the sim

Is there a setting/switch/auto-connect functionality I can implement/program to stop me having to 'reload' FSUIPC to enable the controllers? As an interim measure - things happen s..l..o..w..l..y around my part of the world :mrgreen:

Many thanks
