Yes its a problem of ivai not recognising the secondary connection. Blame on the devs who don't care solving the issue (I've already asked for support in the IVAO forums but no response at all..). The same for ivai with ivap + ivac for the tower view.. No luck as well.

We personally use to connect both to the network putting in RMK "crew of 2, pilot flying callsignX, pilot monitoring callsign Y", so we are both synced with the comms. TS2 for ATC comms, TS3 for internal comms. Only one transponder set to on to avoid tcas alert and confusion for the controllers.

No we don't, occasionally you can see the label of the other plane but only sometimes, it doesn't bother..

hmm, ok. We'll try that then, thanks. this beats fiddling with TS2 on approach.

How to disable the CSL of you partner  (both pilots connected).

 

Open X-Ivap.conf with your favorite text editor.

 

[SOUND]

VOICE=1

[PREFERENCES]

TAGGING=0

COUPLING=0

WEATHER=0

FIXEDWINDLAYER=1

MAXVISIBILITY=80000

TURBULANCE=15

[PLANE]

RESOLUTION=8

[ACCOUNT]

FOLLOWME=0

REMEMBER=1

HIDEADM=0

PORT=6809

SERVER=eu2.ivan.ivao.aero

BASE=LFHO

REALNAME=Claude ROULLIER

PASSWORD=XXXXXX

VID=XXXXXX

CALLSIGN=VPI007

[CSL]

PILOT1=VPI07

 

Add the last 2 lines. Type here the call sign of the other pilot, and vice versa.

PS: For the controlers, only one pilot must set the transponder to ON (The knob is not synchronized in my file).

Known issues in version x-IvAp 0.3.4

Pay attention that no issues will be taken from a beta version of X-plane.



X-ivap cannot connect on Ivai as a secondary connection (like tower view).

Accented characters (é à ù ê ö etc) can't be used and will cause text typed after the character to not appear.

Supervisor info command doesn't work.

edit: I put the file on read only and will see how that goes.
