When trying to connect to vatsim, xpilot throws an error saying it cant connect to xplane and to ensure a flight is loaded. My flight is loaded, ports on both the client and plugin side match, xpilot is updated to latest version.

Is the xPilot plugin showing in X-Plane's menu under Plugins?

Make sure your Windows firewall isn’t blocking the port.

Even with firewall completely off, still throws the same error.

Can you confirm if you have Microsoft Visual C++ 2015/2017/2019 Redistributable package installed?

Quick Bump, Still have not been able to solve this issue.

No other multiplayer network pilot client (VATSIM or otherwise) in the plugins folder?

 

No plugins such as WorldTraffic or other AI traffic plugins? (Not sure that issue would manifest this way -- just trying to help brainstorm!)

 

I think someone said in another thread something about the Zibo Copilot plugin causing a conflict. Do you have that?

Cheers,
