Alexander Ross Murphy Posted June 15, 2022 at 04:33 AM Posted June 15, 2022 at 04:33 AM Awesome, so no more beeping and red text when a model fails to be matched? I was looking for an option to disable those notifications in a previous version but couldn't find any option. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, this has nothing to do with that. And vPilot does not beep and error when a model fails to be matched. When that happens, it just shows your default model. The errors you are referring to are when you have a model specified in a VMR file rule that is not installed or is corrupted. It means you need to fix your VMR file.

Alexander Ross Murphy Posted June 16, 2022 at 02:21 AM Posted June 16, 2022 at 02:21 AM Ah ok, could that option be added to a future version? I have spent way too much time trying different VMR files in conjunction with gigs and gigs on AIG model matching and always seem to get the beeping no matter what. It would be awesome to have a way to suppress that option so that when on short final you don't have 8 beeps in a row as the model matching fails to find a new livery or whatever.

Ross Carlson Posted June 16, 2022 at 02:58 AM Author Posted June 16, 2022 at 02:58 AM The error needs to be there to tell you that you have a bad VMR file. Don't just load a VMR file that you found on the internet unless you're sure that the models referenced in the VMR file are precisely the same models that you have installed. Otherwise, you should generate the VMR manually, or by using a third party tool like ModelMatchingMagic. The VMR file must contain references only to models that you actually have installed.

Alexander Ross Murphy Posted July 12, 2022 at 03:48 AM Posted July 12, 2022 at 03:48 AM Please, please add an option to at least remove the audio 'beep' for when a model cant be matched. I've spent so many hours trying to generate a VMR file that doesn't spit errors but I just can't get it to work. having the red text is fine, just the constant beeping is a nightmare when on final approach and trying to hear ATC or alt-tab to v-pilot to check you weren't disconnected from the network, when it's just a model that is being substituted for something else.

You should be able to locate the .wav file for the beep and edit it or remove it. Cheers, -R. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ross Carlson Posted July 12, 2022 at 02:32 PM Author Posted July 12, 2022 at 02:32 PM It's the standard windows beep, not something that comes with vPilot. The error is telling you more than just that a different model is being swapped in. it's telling you that you have model names in your VMR that aren't actually installed in your sim. I'm guessing you're using a VMR file that you downloaded from the internet, and you don't have all the models that the VMR contains actually installed in your sim. Have you tried using Model Matching Magic to generate your VMR file?
