Heritiana ANDRIAMANDAY Posted February 11, 2021 at 07:56 AM Posted February 11, 2021 at 07:56 AM (edited) Hello, I am new to Vatsim. My vPilot shows a message "Not connected to network". I have Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 and I installed a vPilot software. While Flight simulator is running, I open vPilot. I go to Settings, I put my Vatsim ID and Password, I fill up the information fields with my name, my home airport and I choose a server, then I click OK. Then I go to Connect button on vPilot. I put my callsign and type code, then I click Connect... A message appears "command failed, ensure a flight is loaded". Now, I go to Flight plan, I fill up the information fields about my flight plan, then I click on File flight Plan. At his point, a not connected to network message appears..... I don't know how to fix. I already checked my Windows Firewall to allow vPilot but that did not solve. I would appreciate some help. Thank you. Here is a screenshot of the network error message in vPilot. Edited February 11, 2021 at 07:57 AM by Heritiana ANDRIAMANDAY Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not the issue here. In that situation, the user receives an "Invalid CID/password" error. The error here says that his flight simulator does not have a flight loaded. Heritiana, before you can connect, you need to actually have a flight loaded and be in the cockpit.

Heritiana ANDRIAMANDAY Posted February 11, 2021 at 06:06 PM Author Posted February 11, 2021 at 06:06 PM As Ross Carlson said, I need to have a flight loaded, this means: I have to be in the cockpit. So now it worked until that point. Next step is to learn how to hear people talking and how to talk. I will learn that. I will search how to do in the tutorials. Thank you for your answers.
