New to x-plane. Year is 2014? XUIPC question

Recommended Posts

I bought Xplane because the FF 767 looked amazing.  It is a great plane. Much better than the Level D I must say.  

 

I am flying the 767 for my V.A. and I’m having an issue with the year.  XUIPC is telling my V.A. Acars program that it is 2014 instead of 2019. Everything else is correct.  There is no way to change the year in Xplane that I can find, so where is xuipc getting the data to tell acars that it is 2014?

Strange, I never heard of this problem before. X-Plane itself doesn't know (or care for) years, it only uses day, month, hour, minute and second. But you could check if you have "track real-world date & time" checked in the time settings when configuring your flight.

Maybe it's an issue with your VA's ACARS program. Are you the only X-Plane user with this issue at yout VA?

Re your 767 comments....I'll have to have a look at it as I too am new to x-p and I liked the level-d. Interesting about your years....I have a time problem I can't figure out how to adjust and correct......the clock in the aircraft's is wrong......

The default time for the aircraft's clock is whatever time you set on the Time of Day panel in the Flight Configuration menu.

If you want it to show the actual time according to your computer at your location, click the Configuration button on that Time of Day panel, and then click the "Track real-world date & time" checkbox at the lower left.
