Accessing Navigraph through Volanta only shows v8.28 not 8.29 which was just released? I've updated my Navigraph charts to 8.29 but seems the Volanta integration only pulls through 8.28? There is no option to update Navigraph charts through Volanta (which makes sense from an integration point of view). My Volanta is v1.6.2 and when I check for updates says none available. Do you guys have to force this through somehow?

Tested this tonight after you said it was fixed, it isn't for me. Same error and failure to post the picture on the moving map mid flight. I raised a ticket via the above link and was told it was being looked into, not sure if this was before/after fix was implemented. I've had no further updates to the ticket yet.

Shouldn't have too, point of the feature is take a screenshot and upload it midflight so it appears on the map for others to see (and like), not fanny about with resizing tools.

hmm still broke for me, is it anything to do with fact I now fly in 4K? Screenshots are 4K and I'm wondering if increase in file size is an issue? Previously I was flying in 1080P with no issues. I don't see any options in the settings to downscale the images. I'm using GeForce Experience to take the screenshot and on closer inspection it outputs a PNG file, and the last screenshot I took was a generic wing view and its coming in at 16MB which seems quite large for a screenshot image however the resolution is at 4k. I reckon this is why its failing in Volanta? Is this the official forum for Volanta issues because it appears a little dead around here?

Everytime I try to upload a screenshot onto the moving map I get "screenshot failed to upload - can't connect to the server" error This is followed by a camera stamp on the map (as expected) but the actual picture is blank. I've used this feature heavily before, I have moved to a new PC however so is it a config setting? I've setup the folder where Volanta detects where my screenshots are, I've removed/reinstalled the plugin and check all other settings, they appear correct. Any ideas?

I click on the Navigraph tab on the UI but it only opens like a quarter size window making it impossible to view charts? Am I doing something really wrong?? Can't figure it out. OK ignore - you can resize the window but it wasn't particularly obvious! Thanks

answered Alaska Mesh texture loading
sidfadc posted a topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator Support Forum
Just bought the Mesh along with newly released PAKT. Taking quick discovery flight just north of PAKT and all the mountain ranges have incredibly slow loading textures, then only pop in as a I get close and sometimes not at all. Looks like a bit of a mess? I have my terrain level of detail at 150, High texture resolution. For some reason I can't upload an image...grrr EDIT: Just took off from KEB and it seems ok? Some issue with the newly released PAKT maybe? The only Alaska freeware I have is PABR which is right on the North west of the State - highly unlikely to clash with the texture issues? I've not tried disabling it yet. EDIT 1: Spoke too soon, seeing similar kind of issues east of KEB........hmmmm. Any ideas? -
active Issue with EGHI Southampton
sidfadc replied to jetset's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator Support Forum
Conflict with community addons? I've recently purchased EGHI and don't see this. Try disabling your community add ons then try again. -

useful tip Orbx regions, night lighting control panel
sidfadc replied to Nick Cooper's topic in FSX Support Forum
awesome thanks, can't wait to test it out. Funny I fly a lot on the west coast on Pilotedge and have all the full fat regions and always thoughts the lighting looked "weird", now I know why! Hmmm in addition to the screenshot by Nick I also have this option for some of my full fat regions New night lights Turn new night lights on or off (default = enabled) So how does this differ from the option in the screenshot above. I obviously don't want two sets of lights so do I check this box as well???
