Missing waypoints on Briefing page (ASE)

Featured Replies

Hi there, First time I tried to load the VFR flight-plan generated by PlanG v2.0.5.493 in .PLN format through ASE's Briefing page but upon loading the flight-plan, ASE shows departure and destination airports only, no user waypoints / intersections. Initially, PlanG saved waypoints in this format: <ATCWaypointType>User</ATCWaypointType>. When ASE didn't recognized it, I changed it to <ATCWaypointType>Intersection</ATCWaypointType>. But this didn't help either... sad.png Btw, I didn't have this issue with AS6.5. I'm putting the flight-plan below for review and will be grateful for your help!

Hi, Load the plan in FS and re-save it and then load it in ASE and see what happens.

Hello Jim, Thanks for very quick response but this didn't help, unfortunately! Btw, I also noticed that when I import the FSX-saved flightplan, ASE doesn't want to read cruise altitude data from the flightplan either. You can see below that Cruise Altitude still shows "zero" and I have to put it in manually. The other strange thing I cannot still comprehend is why "Waypoints" equals to "-1" (see: below). Can you explain that as well? I attach the image of what I get after flight-plan processing. IXVrI.jpg

Please send me the plan as an attachment in your regular e-mail: jim(AT)hifisim.com I would like to test it here.

Ok, it's strange but true! This is what I did while waiting for your test and response: 1. I made a similar flight-plan using FSCommander 9.0 and exported it to FSX. Loaded and worked ok under FSX!2. Then, I opened the same FP in ASE - again, worked as it should, i.e. existing (FS-native) and virtual waypoints displayed under Briefing page.3. I compared this newly made FP with original one created by PlanG and re-saved with FSX and noticed that the following section was missing in the latter:

<ICAO>   <ICAORegion>KK</ICAORegion>   <ICAOIdent>Fix 01</ICAOIdent></ICAO>

4. I applied the above section for each waypoint in original flight-plan (just renaming the instances of Fix ##) and the problem now seems resolved - no more display issues under Brieifing page! Can you comment on this 'cuz it seems simply irrational to me WHY ASE experiences display issues only because a portion of flight-plan (evidently irrelevant to ASE) is missing? Thank you very much!

Hi, Because without that section all the other waypoints were mis-numbered so ASE couldn't read the points from the plan.
