X-Plane 11 beta plugin menu does not work

[RXP 2,338]

Hi,

 

Please note there is known bug in X-Plane 11 with the plugin menu system not working properly. They have documented it in their release notes, so until they fix this in the beta, you must understand the following:

 

1) You can use the xp11/plugin/Reality XP GNS menu to open a GNS 530W/430W V2 in any aircraft

 

2) You cannot use the menu to remove the GNS nor to select its options (entries gets shifted in position in the menu list - the bug)

 

3) Once a GNS V2 device is selected in an aircraft, you can manually edit the self-commented RealityXP.GNS.INI file in your aircraft folder to change the options as you wish.

 

4) Change or reload the aircraft for the INI file changes to take effect.

Hi,

 

If I can add a tip (I lost a lot of time with this)

 

Do not forget that the plugin will save the current GNS window positions when you leave your aircarft for an other one or quit x-plane.

This meaning if you modify the ini file with the aircraft loaded in x-plane, your modification will disappeare when you quit x-plane or load an other aircraft.

The good way to do this is:

 - Load the aircraft

 - A one time action: select the device you want to use in the plugin menu inside x-plane (this will create the ini file in your aircraft folder)

 - load an other aircraft (or quit x-plane)

 - modify the ini file as you want

 - reload the aircraft
