I'm using XSquawkBox, and no matter what I set in AfV's settings, I get the error:

 

Could Not Connect to your Simulator.

Please check the configuration and try again.

 

Any ideas?

Have you changed x-plane from using the default UDP ports?

 

If so check out the config.xml file in the standalone directory and change to xxxx where xxx is what your UDP port on x-plane is set to.

 

Cheers

Nope, unfortunately not. ports are the default. It pulls up my callsign then seemingly errors. Not sure what's going on

Any details on the error message at all? Copy of the debug.txt would be helpful too

It seems after mashing "reset UDP ports" and restarting the sim a few times that both AfV and xPilot now work!

Hello,

 

maybe another hint for all with same problem, after message that you can'connect to sim wait for 5s and click Connect again. This definitelly working to me also, not need restart PC or XPlane.
