Flight Plans not generating for iFly

[Steve Waite]

OK I've uploaded pre_20 to the new builds preview discussion scroll to the bottom press F5 in browser to get changes to the page, if there's any problems it should be more helpful in the log this time.

I'm hoping I've not made a knee jerk reaction and upset anything so be prepared for pre_21 in short notice...

[Steve Waite]

..Actually no you don't need "program gps" checked that's OK

...just run IF10 setup_pre_20 and it'll update the program, all will continue as is

OK, Success Finally.

In the Cold & Dark, More Settings, I selected Program GPS for Flight and regenerated the flight plan. The iFly Flight Plan is there!!!

I checked in the Profiles/Monitor folder and there is a "default.ini" with same date and time of the iFly Flight Plan however, no iFly 737-800.ini

Launching a flight now... will update shortly with outcome.

Looks like everything is loading properly. This evening I'll do a complete flight.

As FYI, I did not take following action or install pre_20 yet? Should I even though everything seems to be in order?

After deleting the iFly folders in SimObjects make sure there's no lost files around in the SimObjects folder, only should have files in the aircraft subfolders...no need to uninstall the iFly. However there is the other iFly folder in the FSX Program Files folder, check that's OK:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\iFly"

contains:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Games\Microsoft Flight Simulator X\iFly\737NG"

contains folders :
Charts
..
..
navdata
.. etc.
and a few files styles.ini, ifly.dll, current_version.txt..

Steve, I want to thank you for all your fantastic support!!!

[Steve Waite]

Well here's hoping there's no issues after installing the latest versions since the 737 going on fresh should be best! Also I want to thank you for your help too - bringing this problem to me because it's handy to find out what can go wrong and put in place anything to improve matters.

[Steve Waite]

put pre_20 on is OK! Simply run the Update it's got a few improvements worth having in.

Hi Steve, Sorry for not updating sooner.

I had to perform a complete iFly 737NGX installation; base pack, 3.1, 3.2.1 and 3.2.2 I tested IF10 and FSX after each successful installation. What chore.

IF10 pre_20 picked up on all the changes nicely. The last thing I had to do was update AIRAC and again IF10 detected and updated the indexes accordingly.

At this point EVERYTHING appears to be working 100%!

Planning a flight later this evening...I'll let you know how it goes.

Again, thanks for all the superb support!!!

Best regards
Ralph

Hi Steve,
Just checking in and closing the loop on this topic. IF10 continues to work without any problems.

Best regards,
