sorted

 

Can you please explain what went wrong and how you sorted it out? This might relate to your "transparent" window (I suspect there is a GTN_750_1 or similar written in red to the bottom of the window?)

(I suspect there is a GTN_750_1 or similar written in red to the bottom of the window?)

Ok this helps!

 

There are 5 files necessary for the product to be installed correctly:

 

GTN simulation:

C:\ProgramData\RealityXP\rxpGtnSim32.dll

C:\ProgramData\RealityXP\rxpGtnSim64.dll

C:\ProgramData\RealityXP\RXPGTN.rxp

 

GTN plugin:

X-Plane\Resources\plugin\rxpGTN\32\win.xpl

X-Plane\Resources\plugin\rxpGTN\64\win.xpl

 

These are not interchangeable and are different, that is rxpGtnSim64.dll is not a plugin, it is an external module for the plugin.

 

What files have you moved from which folder then?

[arsenal82 120]

ahh

ok

i actually moved all files from the C:\ProgramData\RealityXP  folder into the plugin folder

 

let me tray to follow your instructions see what happen

tx

Hello,

 

I purchased the GTN 750 for X-Plane today but it brings up an error message in the install, saying it was unable to change two particular files. I have re-tried several times and ultimately had to reinstall from Flight1 as installer.exe disappeared! The two files in question appear to be among those listed in Jean-Luc's post. I didn't note them I'm afraid. 

 

When I tried to reinstall the GTN it just went to the 'Finish' window, apparently installing nothing. This means I cannot now find the names of the two offending files. I've done everything with Administrator rights and with my NOD 32 antivirus disabled.

I have X-Plane b9 on a dedicated drive/partition/.  I am using Win 10 Anniversary, 64 bit. 

 

An experienced user I'm now stuck! I was hoping to find solution on this forum.

Edit

 

The problem was with the ESET NOD 32 antivirus after all.  False positives everywhere.  Gauge now installed.  Great.

 

One question - How can you toggle the GTN window visibility on and off without going back to the plug-in menu?

I'm glad you've sorted it out in the end!

 

By default, the plugin installs SHIFT+ ` (the shift+backquote, on US keyboards it is right above the TAB key)

 

You can also manually assign any keys as you like. The config file is in:

 

X-Plane\Output\preferences\RealityXP.GTN.ini

 

It is self-documented!

It can also be assigned in the menu\keyboard\plugin provided menu. Same for button pushes.

Thank you gentlemen, appreciated your replies.

 

After delving into the menus I confess I managed to answer my own question. And as I move along the learning curve I'm becoming more and more hooked on this sim. After all the years spent with flight-sim, from Sublogic to P3D, nothing else comes close to giving you that visceral sensation of real flight. And there's so much more of course ...

 

Just to mention .... although I have the GTN up and working I am finding that when I first start up X-Plane I get a CDT. But the next time, it starts fine and there are no problems. Problem goes away if I unistall the GTN. Also, I can't get the NAV function in the Baron P58 AP to slave to the GTN in GPS mode. With or without the FD engaged. C172 works fine. Could be a B58 bug? 

 

The shimmering. How are the experts getting around this? Is it a matter of experimentation, like FSX/P3D?  What role if any should NCP and NI settings play? Is there any rule of thumb here? Best to avoid?  I'm also conscious of the fact that we're still in beta.

 

I have just installed the IXEG 737 ... to say I'm impressed and totally immersed is an understatement.  All in all, I find I'm flying and enjoying instead of tweaking and fuming, and as a bonus the decision as whether or not to suffer (as in submit arguably to price gouging) and buy the new PMDG B744 for P3D is no longer on the table. I rushed out and bought the 737 Classic instead.

 

And lastly ... :-)  could anyone comment on whether upgrading to a GTX 1070 8Gb is likely to do much for my X-Plane experience? My system: i2700k OC 4.5Ghz, Win 10 64 bit, 24Gb RAM, GTX 780 3Gb, SSDs throughout, Asus P8Z68, Corsair 800w PSU, Saitek X52

 

I also find that X-Plane doesn't remember changes I make to the lateral FOV (between flights or sessions.) A minor annoyance.

 

Pardon the many questions but you know how it is ...

 

Kind regards
