go/vfrmap: cannot run it overlayed on sim screen

Featured Replies

You might be aware of the excellent free VFR map, available here:

https://github.com/lian/msfs2020-go/releases

It's an excellent app and it runs really well. However I cannot persuade it to run AT THE SAME TIME as the sim. Whether I run it in full screen or windowed mode, either it, or the sim is in focus, but not both. Unlike the standard VFR map which acts as a working overlay, the VFR map stops the sim running when it is on screen, even though it is overlayed. The props move but the sim is inactive. If I ALT TAB then either the sim runs, or the map runs, but not both.

EDIT: Downloaded previous version 05 and now it can run both but cuts the sound from MSFS 2020!

I also cannot get this app to run on a second computer using a private network As per instructions I start chrome on the networked computer and go to 

browse to http://localhost:9000

or to http://<computer-ip>:9000

Both  refuse to connect on the networked computer. Maybe I have to run the app on both computers? The instructions are not very detailed.

The only way I can run both is to half the size of the sim window and the app window and make sure it and the sim window are not "touching".

Does anyone know how to get both running? Thank you for any tips.
