Shayaan, please give this installer a try: http://xpilot.clowd.io/installers/xPilot-Setup-1.3.0.2b.exe

Make sure you have X-Plane and xPilot completely closed before installing.

Hi, thank you. This worked, so now I can open xPilot and connect, however it keeps on disconnecting and even when it is, I cannot see any other aircraft whatsoever. This wan't a problem on the older versions of xPilot.

Does xPilot show up in X-Plane under the plugin menu?

Yes it does, X-Plane > Resources > plugins > xPilot

The first thing I though was that the CSL may have been installed incorrectly, however, after downloading it again, and replacing problem still persists. My other thought was that XSquawkBox was installed however I doubled checked and I uninstalled it a while back. Any other ideas? Thanks id advance.

Have you made sure your CSL paths are defined in the xPilot settings (in X-Plane > Plugins > xPilot > Settings)?

Yep, double checked this, it has the correct place defined.

What exactly is “disconnecting”? Is the xPilot client losing connection to X-Plane? Or the Vatsim network?

Can you upload your NetworkLog and PluginLog (found in the xPilot app directory %localappdata%\xPilot) and X-Plane log.txt after one or several disconnects occur?

Hi, thanks for the quick reply. I have attached the Network Logs & Plugin Logs. It says "The server has failed to respond to the authentication challenge".

Have you tried connecting to a different server? That message suggests that data is being lost (or delayed) in the connection between your computer and the VATSIM server.
