EFB Problem
-
Used plane: Bae 146-300 Malmö repaint from Flightsim.to.
Works very well a few days ago
Windows 11 latest update
GSX Pro
Flight plan made by SimBrief -> ESMS - ENGMProblem:
I start MSFS 2020 (Steam version), select airport and starting gate -> wait as simulator start and after that I select Real weather & time. Next I wake up the aircraf tand start APU. Then I go to the EFB and select OFB page then push Continue.
Summary page works ok - I can see all information but Output page is blank.As I go to Aircraft page I can't see a choice button that I can load the aircraft using data from SimBrief -> Fuel Quanity, number of the passanger and a Cargo. This is a little bit hard to explain but I hope that You understand about what I mean. I tryed a few times re-start sim and push a Refresh button, too into OFP page of the EFB.
Nothing has not changed between last flight session and today - only couple test flight with Fenix A320 yestarday and BAE 146-300 is working very well all the time until today not. I suppouse that the problem is not Yours addon but this unstable simulator that works a one day ok but tomorrow all is messed.
Thank You

I was also experiencing the blank output page on the EFB using the -300 which is my normal ride.
For a VA route yesterday I fired up the -200 for the first time since the last JF update and (not) patiently waited while it compiled and spawned. When I looked at the imported SB plan I did see output.
I will try later on the -300 again and if it's still blank I might live dangerously and try to force a compile on that by re-installing the last patch.
If I do, I'll update the result.

I've had this happen a few times too, I believe it has something to do with corrupted Simbrief data because it also affected another addon I was using. Regenerating the plan had no effect, but starting a new flight from a different airport there was no problem. Perhaps the issue only affects a number of locations at a time. -
Aaargh - this will be very frustrating situation. I made flightplan and spend time to do it with LittleNav's then exported plan to SimBrief and launched simulator. Made pre-flight and wake up a aircraft (146-300 Delta Airlines on the the Anchorage airport <- Payware) and go to the EFB and selected OFP page. Nothing happened.
In my opinion the developers should check this problems very carefully because the plane model is very nice and I like it very much but would like to use it as it's planned to works. It's odd if some airport influence to EFB and it's actions.
The EFB should make a little bit better for put values on the Aircraft page like amount of the fuel and passangers. I use num pad for moving into cockpit so I can't use num pad to put or change values those needed values and now this SimBrief intergration works randomly - really - this not funny any more.
Thank You for advise

PS. Sorry my bad english...

@dosendo Hi, I had the same problem today from ENZV to ENML. No flightplan, no weather at destination and not loading Simbrief data into the aircraft.
I reinstalled 0.1.8 and all is working again. Probably a corrupted file or something like this. When you reinstall select repair and in a couple of minutes is done.
Hope it works for you too.
Regards. -
@alh I think that the problems is some were else. Check my first post. As I went to ENGM all woks fine. PANC airport was the same problem as my first post say but yesterday I tryed again this bird and I was into Barcelona airport LEBL and used IBERIA paint from Flightsim.to. All works perfectly.
As I wrote earlier - into Bromma airport all works well, too.
So the problems is paint or some airports and about what caused this - I have no idea but it's very frustrating situation as this error happen.

A long time ago (on the CJ4 I think) there were issues because some livery devs included panel files in the re-paint which was clashing with the WT FMS. Solution at that time was to delete the panel entries from the livery. Unlikely to be your issue but takes 30 secs to see if the liveries which fail include panel files.
-
@b3lt3r Thank You!
Yes - mayby so but the same livery works well an other airport and an other not and reason of that it is difficult to find what caused my problems and some other simmer, too.
It could be some problems with SimBrief, too - not an airport or this aircraft...

Hi All:
I recently upgraded my PC and have intermittently experienced the problem where I can get the SB flight info into my 146 EFB. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling V1.8 to no avail. I reinstalled V1.7 and no longer have the issue as it now works. What is interesting is the V1.8 worked on my old PC and I have intermittent EFB issues on my new PC.
Comments or advice is greatly appreciated,
Russ Tillman

I get the same issue also with none or partial retrieval of info from Simbrief even when using the correct airframe selection.
Says 'Loading...'
The SUMMARY gets populated but the METAR and OFP OUTPUT are not populated and there is no prompt to import Simbrief info for loading the aircraft with PAX and CARGO on the AIRCRAFT page on the EFB
