Francesco Bertezzolo 98134 Posted March 24, 2008 at 06:03 PM Posted March 24, 2008 at 06:03 PM Hi everybody, probably this mine is a silly question, but i try: i login for 2 years and a fly usually on line Vatsim, and when i check my status on line, my name is always reported with capital letters. Since i hate this, i tried several times to change it, but i noticed that the problem is on the main login screen, where always appears on capital, even changing on keyboard. I forgot to mention, i use XPlane ( now new 9, but even on 8.64 ) on MS enviroment. Thanks for your help Franz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norman Blackburn Posted March 24, 2008 at 06:12 PM Posted March 24, 2008 at 06:12 PM Francesco, XPlane's pilot client XSB will always send your details in uppercase. (Moved to XPlane forum) Norman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shawn Goldsworthy 925085 Posted March 24, 2008 at 07:42 PM Posted March 24, 2008 at 07:42 PM Francesco, Norm is correct. Xsquawkbox sends your name in uppercase. There is nothing you can do to change it. Shawn "SX" Goldsworthy Retired ATM/ Staff Instructor Los Angeles ARTCC N123SX | xxx554 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wade Williams 877539 Posted March 24, 2008 at 08:47 PM Posted March 24, 2008 at 08:47 PM However, version 1.0.2, due to be posted very soon, removes this restriction. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Stjepanovic 963114 Posted March 24, 2008 at 08:57 PM Posted March 24, 2008 at 08:57 PM What about pasting it in. I tried it before and it works just fine. Controllers have feelings too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norman Blackburn Posted March 24, 2008 at 09:04 PM Posted March 24, 2008 at 09:04 PM What about pasting it in. I tried it before and it works just fine. It will still show as uppercase when connected to the network though. Norman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alex Stjepanovic 963114 Posted March 24, 2008 at 09:06 PM Posted March 24, 2008 at 09:06 PM Odd. Just tried it...before XP itself crashed on me, and it showed as "Alex Stjepanovic" Controllers have feelings too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norman Blackburn Posted March 24, 2008 at 09:08 PM Posted March 24, 2008 at 09:08 PM Very odd indeed. Must try that too albeit when it boils down to it Im not that vain Norman Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ian Elchitz 810151 Posted March 24, 2008 at 11:11 PM Posted March 24, 2008 at 11:11 PM I'm that vain. I also want it to supply my vatsim rating, number of hours as a pilot on the network, VA affiliations where I'm on the executive, and inseam measurements. New release of XSB sounds very promising. Thanks Wade. Ian Elchitz Just a guy without any fancy titles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
