Unidentified models

I am new to vPilot with P3D after using a long time FSInn with FSX.

For FSInn the most important line for model matching was the title in the aircraft cfg.

What is vPilot looking after?

I have 10 of these Airbusses and no one is identified. What line is missing?

Thanks.

I probably need to add A359 to the valid ICAO aircraft types list. I'll check later today.

Ok, I have some more trouble.

Could you please check if B788 is in the list. These models are unidentified too.

Please post all the fields from the cfg file, same as you did for the A359.

Hrmm ... looks right to me. I think B788 is in the list, but maybe not. I'll check later.

Thanks, just one more:

 

[fltsim.1]

title=WA_MD11AFL

sim=md11_GW

sound=

model=GE_cargo

texture=AFL

ui_variation=Aeroflot (AFL)

ui_manufacturer=GlobusWorld

ui_type=MD11

description=GlobusWorld Model McDonnell-Douglas 11

atc_parking_codes=AFL

atc_model=MD11

 

I changed some values in the cfg after vPilot was started the first time. Is there a function to refresh?

 

When I have 30 of 32 aircraft identified, is there a way to see which are the loosers?

I have it. As I thought vPilot did not check for updates automatically after changing the aircraft.cfg.

So I just removed one aircraft folder, started vPilot (new check), put the aircraft folder back to P3D and vPilot checked again. All of my models are now identified.

Is there any other way to force vPilot to recheck the models after correcting an aircraft.cfg?

You could delete the model scan result file, which you'll find in the vPilot installation folder.

 

I'll add a feature request to add a rescan button to the settings window.

A "Rescan" button has been added for version 2.1.7 which should be available soon.

Hi all and Ross,

 

For my vPilot model scan results i get 9,150 models found, 1,285 identified

 

Does this mean i have 7,865 models that will not be used??

 

I have ivao mtl (yes i know sin) and a lot of the models have the fltsim.xx out of order, does this matter? There is a program AI-Aircraft Editor by Martin Gossmann/The Owl's Nest 2017 that re-sorts them and even re-numbers if necessary so they are sequential... however, with 6,000+ models in the mtl set, i'm hesitant to go through them all; and even the ones i have re-sorted using this program it did not make a difference in the number identified (even using the new Rescan... button.

 

edit: to further under the Advanced section i have CXA models 60, 14 identified then ivao_mtl 6,462 models, 1 identified... ummm... i'm not sure what the identified is representing as there's no mention in the manual or in a good search.

 

Thanks!

Mr.

Yes, they have to be identified in order for vPilot to know how to match them to aircraft you encounter online. IVAO's MTL is not supported, thus none are identified. (The one that is identified is a fluke ... that one just happens to have a proper aircraft.cfg file that contains a proper ICAO aircraft type and ICAO airline prefix.)
