Hello All, I just recently moved my phpVMS 5 install to 7.0.0 -dev , just a question about setting up the env or config file.... What would be the correct way to set up the acars live time as we had in the earlier versions as below ? From our earlier local config: # ACARS options # Minutes, flights to show on the ACARS # Default is 720 minutes (12 hours) Config::Set('ACARS_LIVE_TIME', 720);

Seeing some inconsistencies between the altitude in the aircraft and the altitude reported on the live map on the website. Flying at FL320 but live map is showing 28649. As I started my decent, the altitudes were matching more, that started at about FL250. Also distance showing on the live map is 719 / 479.61. The flight was a pretty straight flight from departure to arrival. On this version of VMAcars I am still getting the issue with landing/strobe lights are on once I start to taxi even though they are both off. Using the Zibo mod B737-800 for X-Plane 11.35 Here are links to the laravel log and the acars log.txt files.

Is there any possibility to make VMSacars download the flight plans on their custom routes? Put a tab where you can select the routes of the different programs that are generated with simbrief and not have to go looking for the folder where to save it. It would be very comfortable

Found another airport like KORD in ACARS that puts the airport off the coast of Africa. Its KPAE. The one I have is part of the Drzewiecki Design Seattle Airports pack for X-Plane. There is about 4 or 5 airports in the apt.dat file, but here is the first few lines for that airport. 1 561 1 0 KPAE Snohomish Co 1302 flatten 1 100 22.00 1 0 0.25 0 2 0 16L 47.90642022 -122.27171532 0 0 1 0 0 2 34R 47.89819024 -122.27162263 0 0 1 0 0 2 100 45.00 1 1 0.25 1 3 0 16R 47.92242187 -122.28587751 123 72 3 0 1 0 34L 47.89663330 -122.28531247 0 122 3 0 0 0

In build 715 - Scoring - the delay column may need to be widened a bit. The right side of the number is cut off... number 0 appears as the letter C for instance. This also shows up in the points column with numbers larger than 9. Maybe make all boxes the same width - Threshold, Points, Delay and Cooldown - to accommodate 5 visible digits.

We are having an issue with our acars downloads - the downloads link is pointing to ourairlines.net/downloads - but the page link under vmsacars is pointing to a different location and it will not change from the ourairlines.net/downloads. What am I missing? I appreciate any suggestions. I currently have redirect link to the file from the pages option. Thank you

Please excuse me for my lack of understanding however I've set my site up - tested it and purchased the Acars download. Following the install instructions I've hit a wall time sending back to do a clean install because the whole thing fails on me so I'm looking for clarification and a little more direct instruction. Step 1 (from Installation (Server) page) For the server-side installation, open the Web folder and copy the VMSAcars into your phpvms/modules folder: - done. Question: the file I download unzips as a folder calls ACARS. The instruction and graphic are VMSAcars. What should my server side folder be called (in the modules folder)? …

I have noticed the when starting Acars it seems to be still connected to the last flight and sometimes can lead to the Aircraft still showing on the live map. This happens even when you complete the flight and send the pirep. It does not happen all the time and may be connected to the main site with a flight. If I get more examples and data I will post it. regards Doug

Hello everyone, lately it has appeared to me that I am initiating pushback in the acars, the taxi, takeoff or landing does not recognize me. I have the MakerRunways installed and use the MFS2020. I leave a screenshot of the jam. I'd appreciate your help!

G'day Nabeel and dev team, I'm writing to propose a suggestion to improve how the flight path is displayed when crossing the date line (or basically one side of the global map to the other). Right now its behavior is to draw an extremely long line right across to connect to the "other side". Example, when crossing the Pacific Ocean: I am not a developer by trade, so please excuse me if this is simpler said than done. My suggestion is to simply have a rule for each drawn segment: if, segment length = x then, do not draw where x is an extremely large distance such as 1000nm, which would be highly unlikely…

Hi, I purchased the VMSAcars for PHPVMS 7 and trying to get it to work on the website. I downloaded the zip file ACARS from the purchasepage on the PHPVMS website, unzipped the file and placed it on my HDD. With the use of Filezilla I copied the folder ACARS at the designated path in PHPVMS 7 and ran the update function. However Acars is not showing in the admin area. Is there something I missed, could you please help me? Greetings, David

So my VA has recently switched from vamsys to phpvms. At first, i was able to use the acars normally but after 2 days i encountered a problem with it saying that i hadn't entered ICAO code and showing the boxes yellow even though it was full. And now a new issue has risen with the acars showing that i am not logged in even though the crew site and my API key were both there. This just also occurred with the VA owner and we can't find a fix. Any help would be appreciated.

Hey. Just did the first flight with vmsACARS. Flight went well, tracked on the map and looked great. Then, when I ended the flight, about 3 seconds later, it killed the tracker, so I couldn't actually file it. When I reopened tracker, it would reopen for 3 seconds then quit, so sadly, that's my flight progress lost. Anyone else had this issue and any advice? Thankyou!

Non of the taskbar icons in ACARS are displaying. Is it something i've missed in the setup or is the latest version missing an icons folder? From the installation page, this is what it should look like but, apart from the top icon (3 bars), I just have blank grey boxes.

Hello, I'm hoping for a bit of nudge in the right direction, as the subject says I'd like VMSAcars to show the speed when certain events happen (gear raised/lowered flaps raised/lowered). I have read through the following pages, I managed to following the instructions and do the example, https://docs.phpvms.net/acars/customizing/customization & https://docs.phpvms.net/acars/customizing/tutorial To be honest I'm not really sure what I'm doing or if it is even possible. I have VMSAcars Premium & I am running the latest stable release of VMSAcars. Thank you for any help or pointers

Dear phpVMS team, could you please consider to add support for A32NX FBW plane? I am talking specificaly about lights where ACARS is detecting strobe (auto) as strobe (on). So if someone is using strobe auto on the ground, ACARS is detecting this as violation. API events for lights are well documented in A32NX docs. Thanks in advance!

Hi Just bought the Acars and ran the updater from the browser. When I goto admin / config, and look at addons to enter my key, I only have sample. If I run the updater from the admin page, I get an error? Any help

Hi! I was wondering if there could be a way that the ACARS reads the actual weights of the airplane as well as the already fuel that is loaded. Because when your ending your flight it will take into account the total fuel lodad on the plane and not just the used one. Cheers

Hi, Is it possible for a user that flies sometimes on MSFS, and sometimes on X-Plane, to use VMSACARS to file the Pireps to the same Airline? Thank you, Joao
