[BUG] Unable to input From/To into INIT page on MCDU #758

Closed GamingAstronamy closed 3 years ago

GamingAstronamy commented 3 years ago

Mod Version Master

Describe the bug When trying to enter KJFK/KMSP into the From/To section on the INIT page of the MCDU it says “Not In Database.” If I try to enter the same route in again it just disappears. I then have to type KJFK/KMSP again and it still doesn’t work. I’ve also tried using KJFK/KMCO and KLAX/KLAS, same thing happened. Also, nothing is entered into the F-PLN page, so this isn’t a visual bug,

To Reproduce

  1. Begin a flight, cold and dark.
  2. Get to the MCDU part of the checklist
  3. Type your route into the MCDU. EI:(KJFK/KMSP)
  4. Enter what you type into the From/To section of the INIT page

Expected behavior The route that I typed in should appear below From/To and both airports should appear in the f-pln page

Actual behavior Nothing appears below From/To or on the F-PLN page

Same here mate, did you find a solution yet? Many thanks

mariusrisan commented 3 years ago

Same issue here. Even if I choose a route from the built-in flightplanner nothing appears.

After deleting "Highonsnow_InstrumentRefreshFPSPatch_0.1.03" the problem disappeared for me.

Can confirm that this is a bug caused by the High on Snow Mod. (Which isn't needed anymore at all after the last Update from MS.)

You guys are legends!...

After deleting "Highonsnow_InstrumentRefreshFPSPatch_0.1.03" the problem disappeared for me. How can I find “ Highonsnow_InstrumentRefreshFPSPatch_0.1.03”? Is in the mfs2020 file?

olafsmit commented 3 years ago

I believe it is called FPS-fix in the community folder

Either its called "FPS-fix" or "HighonSnow_[...]", but should be in the Community folder. If these mods don't say you anything, than I guess you don't got them installed.

I'm putting this here from the Discord for future reference, but I'm also getting the "not in database" bug when entering dep/dest airports on the init page as well. But I don't have the FPS fix installed, nor do I ever have it installed.

Other things to note:

Other things to note:

  • This bug also exists on the vanilla A320.
  • Also happens after a clean reinstall of the sim.
  • I've tried doing everything that's suggested to me on the discord (full restart of PC + MSFS, rebuilding the community folder entirely, etc.)
  • if I set a DCT route between my 2 airports, the F-PLN screen on the MCDU is absolutely bugged (happens on both the mod and vanilla), nor can I enter departures/airways from it.

Looks pretty the same as it did before I deleted the mod. But as you stated you never got it installed, so this is really strange.

Can you please check if the FMC is working on other Airliner e.g. the 747? Do you got any other software running that is communicating to the sim?

@MaoamDEV It apparently also didn't work with other aircrafts.

Also as a quick update - doing a complete reinstall of MSFS (including deleting the packages folder + deleting the %AppData%\Microsoft Flight Simulator folder) seemed to work - A32NX seemed to work fine now and will see if it works fine with all my liveries installed.

Thanks for the Update! So this is definitely a vanilla MSFS bug. There are some post in the FS-Forums as well, who are mostly referring to vanilla aircraft. I guess its another issue caused be 1.8.3.0. Lets hope the next patch is getting better.

Hey! Have you guys found a solution to this problem? I have had the same problem for the past couple days.

Try deleting Content.xml in your MSFS app data folder, then start the sim.
