Time stamping on VDGS not working
« on: September 11, 2022, 07:09:54 pm »
Hello, the time stamps on the vdgs are not displayed on my PC, I am using the latest offline version of September 7, my name alias simbrief is correctly added in the gsx parameters, and I am using the correct vdgs model .

My friends on the same airport profile have the indications but I have nothing at all. I don't understand..

Can you help me please?

Thanks,

Ok, when I am with airbus A320 fenix it works, the button is green and I see the writings, but when I am with PMDG 737-800 it does not work

Pull the GSX window bigger, usually below the Simbrief button (which is red) there's a text indicating what's wrong.
My guess would be that your profile for the PMDG 737-800 has a wrong/different aircraft type than MSFS.
Check if there is a proper simbrief profile for the 738 and try with that.

oh thank you so much, i didn't know that. Indeed it tells me that simbrief does not match the pmdg plane on msfs, but I don't know how to fix this, I downloaded a pmdg profile for simbrief but it doesn't work

There's a long thread on the 737-800 already, I suggest you read if there's a solution (since I don't have the PMDG, I didn't follow it):

Great ! Thanks a lot ! indeed PMDG in their aircraft.cfg, General Tab, uses: icao_type_designator="B737" instead of B738 for the -800.

It's fixed and it works.

Thanks a lot
