ATC not working

[tup61 1,642]

I can sometimes ask for clearance (depending on how I load my flightplan) but after that I get no option to contact ground or tower or whatever... Only traffic...! So ATC doesn't work at all for IFR flights in my FBW A320 anymore. Anyone else having the same problem? Or might this be a FBW A320 problem...?

Yup, all cocked up! The ATC window pops up sometimes, then at other times it's just a grey window. Also when it appears as a grey window I can't remove it.

Yes, this happened to me last night.

Okay, well... SU7 is a big mess, that's for sure. Worse performance, TrackIR problems, no live weather (at least on my PC), no ATC... 😵

Let me guess: You all got Navigraph.
Remove the Navigraph Nav data and re-install it again. Fixed.

SU7 is a great update for me, the only slightly annoying thing is trackir, but in the end for me it's only one additional key press ("toggle head tracking") once or twice a flight. Oh and the clouds being on MSL instead of AGL (metar), that's stupid, but probably really easy to fix.
Performance is as great as before.

Hmmm, correct. I do. I will give this a try. Thank you.

How do you remove the Navigraph data please?

Not an FBW320 problem - just completed an IFR flight from Bristol to Zurich and no problems at all with ATC (incluiding when I assigned ATC comms to the copilot during approach).

This was with Navigraph AIRAC cycle 2111 rev.4 installed.

[tup61 1,642]

I had Navigraph uninstalled at the moment of the update and installed it afterwards... I will give it another try though.

Nope, I stopped using Navigraph when I uninstalled P3D

Well, it worked here...! I removed the data using the Navigraph Center, uninstalled the entire app, reinstalled it, reinstalled the data... and ATC is working again (in the FWB A320 with a Simbrief plan loaded into the MSFS planner which can be used for that since SU7)! Thanks for the tip, you made my day!

ATC stutter fix installed by any chance?  If so remove it.

For me it seems it ask for clearance by itself when I havent ask for it, or ask for pushback without me asking for it......I dont know why.....

Maybe you have the co pilot turned on (assists)?
