Nelson Hoffman Posted October 15, 2019 at 09:26 PM Posted October 15, 2019 at 09:26 PM Hello all, perhaps someone can [Mod - Happy Thoughts]ist me here. I downloaded X-Pilot setup and installed that. Confirmed that I could transmit and receive to a VATSIM controller (thank you EGLL GRN). I then down loaded and the BlueBell CSL files and installed them (obviously incorrectly). The Bleu Bell files for Airbus and Boeing are in the CSL folder in the following path: X-Plane11\Resources\Plugins\xPilot\Resources\CSL These files in the CSL folder are RAR File types. The settings on the X-Pilot window (accessed from the drop down menu in X-Plane) Enabled Path Sets to CSL shows only one entry: Resources/plugins/xPilot/Resources/CSL with a checkmark in the left hand box. Any [Mod - Happy Thoughts]istance would be most appreciated. The new voice client sounds great, not if I could only get the other aircraft back. Thank you.

Richard Asberg Posted October 15, 2019 at 09:28 PM Posted October 15, 2019 at 09:28 PM You need to extract the files in the CSL folder. I suggest you check out this video tutorial Richard Åsberg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Deuvall 1451148 Posted October 16, 2019 at 05:11 PM Posted October 16, 2019 at 05:11 PM I installed bluebell and did the vertical fix install. Placed CSL under Plugins/xpilot/resources I do not see any aircraft. I can see XP11 generated AI aircraft. Vatsim aircraft are not showing up on the ADS-B either. Is there a fix to this?

Richard Asberg Posted October 16, 2019 at 05:29 PM Posted October 16, 2019 at 05:29 PM That's odd. Because I did exactly what you describe and it's working fine over here. One thing and I'm not sure if it's related, but I have AI aircraft in X-Plane set to none. Richard Åsberg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Deuvall 1451148 Posted October 16, 2019 at 05:57 PM Posted October 16, 2019 at 05:57 PM I will try that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you try setting your com frequency by using the .com1 dot command in xPilot? If the frequency doesn’t change in your aircraft, then it’s possible the tcp port is being blocked, which would also cause you to not see other aircraft. Can you also verify that you don’t have any other multiplayer network plugins installed (swift, xsb, pilot edge, etc)?

Mike Becker 1199239 Posted October 16, 2019 at 06:46 PM Posted October 16, 2019 at 06:46 PM Do you have to edit the plugin configuration in XP11 to show the paths to all the CSL/Bluebird folders? In the video referenced above (thank you), he doesn't go in to that. My CSL structure is same as in the video and I do not see other aircraft either.

Nelson Hoffman Posted October 16, 2019 at 08:13 PM Author Posted October 16, 2019 at 08:13 PM (edited) Thank you Rich. That video helped, I think I have it working correctly. I do notice that not all the aircraft appear correct (i.e. Delta MD80 at Gatwick) and some of the aircraft appear to drift slowly around the stands, but It sure adds reality to the sim. Many thanks!

Jim Deuvall 1451148 Posted October 16, 2019 at 08:26 PM Posted October 16, 2019 at 08:26 PM The link for the plugin settings screen does not state how to get to that screen with the paths. THe xpilot plugin does not show up under xp11 pluggins. How do I get to that. The settings button when I launch xpilot is the set microphone etc settings. The only other pluggin that is third party is the oshkosh ground traffic but I'm not at oshkosh and its not a multiplayer client. Also, I do not know the .com1 dot command. Please explain. The radios and the transponder work from within xp11 and work with vatsim Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Becker 1199239 Posted October 16, 2019 at 09:09 PM Posted October 16, 2019 at 09:09 PM I have my paths setup in the xPilot plugin in X-Plane 11. Do I need to restart the sim or xPilot client? The aircraft still do not show up. I am sitting at KLAX with 6-departures ready and I'm the only one at the airport. Also, for above, in the client, when you are connected, in the text input box, put .com1 FREQUENCY (replace FREQUENCY with the frequency you want COM1 to be, like this: .com1 125.800 and press ENTER) [EDIT: I reinstalled the Bluebell CSL files differently this time and aircraft now appear... and there are a LOT of them!] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jim Deuvall 1451148 Posted October 17, 2019 at 09:19 PM Posted October 17, 2019 at 09:19 PM Mike, Where do you go to enter the paths? I do not see pilot in the xp11 plugins menu and the settings screen from within pilot has no link to paths. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do i unblock the port, what port, I looked at your link for changing the paths but it doesn't say how to get into that screen. The plugin does not appear within xplane> plugins menu bar. So where do I get that screen? Appreciate your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
