Avitab planned for IXEG / XP12 ?

[von]

Hello,

Is Avitab planned for IXEG / XP12 like in XP11?

It is already implemented. You can choose the Avitab option in preferences, then you just need the avitab plugin.

Thanks for the reply.

 

"avitab plugin"

I downloaded one and it had me backup a couple files then add a few.

It was not a Plug-in.

It did not work. The exterior model was all messed up / parts missing so I reversed what I had done.

So, I need a link to the correct Avitab plugin if you can provide it, thanks.

Hi,

Did you use that one?

It did not work for me.

Any other links for me to try?

I went to the top XP12 menu and Avitab toggled tablet.

It displayed.

But, I do not have it in the VC cockpit (screenshot).

I use AviTab-0.5.1 - and it works without any problems...

[EDIT]

I just downloaded and tried v.0.6.3 and also no problems.
Some local conflict must be occurring on your system...

Hello Bulva,

 

Thanks for the reply an testing. Much appreciated.

I copied Avitab 051 from my older PC (XP11 and IXEG) to my new PC with XP12 and XP12 v12.06.

Same problem (screenshots).

Possibly the recent XP12 update to v12.06 broke something to make Avitab in VC cockpit a "see thru"?

I just checked for Avitab v063 in the Zibo mod for XP12 and it is ok (screenshot).

Still searching for the Avitab problem in the IXEG ?

Problem solved , my error.

First I upgraded Avitab on my older XP11 PC from v051 to v063. Tested OK.

 

I compared IXEG files from my old XP11 PC to my new XP12 PC.

I noticed Avitab.json was missing from my IXEG737 Classic Plus folder on my  new XP12 PC.

I copied the Avitab.json from my old Xplane11 PC to IXEG737 Classic Plus folder on my  new XP12 PC (with Avitab v063) and that fixed the problem.

This missing file was most likely my accidental deletion when following file backup / install instructions on my first AVITAB download/install.
This Avitab install did not work so I removed it.
The readme for this bad install :
Make sure to backup your B733.acf and B733_cockpit.obj
Copy the contents inside the compressed file to the IXEG 737 Classic folder, overwriting the existing files.

So now I assume I am ok with the Avitab.json I am currently using without a need to download a more current one?
