Hello. I would like to know if there is any way to fly with a radar (or something similar) showing every plane (multiplayer plane or IA plane) around.
When I play multiplayer I feel the hud information about other players very intrusive (a very big rectangle in the sky showing the name), and the most relevant information, the distance from my plane, is not shown. So I prefer to turn off that HUD information.
I wonder if there is any addon (similiar to VFRmap) to let me see other planes in any map. Or maybe there is any plane with that function integrated (a militar plane maybe).
Little NavMap shows other planes on its map. I canât recall but I think if you hover your mouse over another plane you will get some information about it.
Yup little nav map will do this, and if you click on the plane in the map, it will display all the info about that plane airspeed altitude call sign flt pln and more. Its best to run it on a second monitor for the best results.
It will also show your flight plan and so much more ;p Its to bad we didnt get that kind of functionality with the current vfr system.
Works just fine here. You have to go to view show ai and multiplayer aircraft. It will display boats as well I use it all the time, make sure you point it to where ever it needs pointed and you have simconnect workingâŠ
As I read: âLNM comes with its own SimConnect which is a FSX SP2 version to ensure compatibility with FSX and P3D. MSFS is normally no issue with this (except the crashes they introduced with the last update). There is no need to install SimConnect or fiddle with any configuration files to run LNM.â
I just run âlittlenavmap.exeâ when MSFS 2020 is running (I asume simconnect works automatically). I can see on the LNM map my own plane (yellow) and IA planes and boats (orange), but not other players.
I dont fly on vatsim or any other online server other then msfs. Multiplayer planes/ AI planes do show up on LNM (even checked it yesterday) and seems to be more accurate then built in vfr map.
Hmmm, if that is really the case that you now get access to multiplayer objects via the SimConnect API then this must be a rather recent change in the SimConnect API (perhaps introduced with the ârace flyingâ addon?).
Will pay attention to this next time I am using Little NavmapâŠ
I am using the last version of Little Navmap and the last version of MSFS 2020 and I can not see other players. Maybe you did something different in the configuration? Or maybe it is possible when playing in specific conditions like a private sesion with a friend?
Multiplayer is other players in the Sim. Are you saying you see other actual Sim-players (multiplayers) in Little Navmap?
Air Traffic is not real players. Though live traffic simulates some real world traffic.
Sorry if Im confusing people. Im just trying to understand
Yes live traffic is what I see I dont use ai I run Live Players, I see the same players in LNM that I see in the sim VFR screen.
And like I said, I saw a friends call sign in the cleveland area, I called him and asked if he was online right now and he confirmed he wasâŠ
So your saying if I turn off live traffic, and leave multiplayer on, I should see no one? because it doesnt work. And that is if does work, I will see people. Hmmmmm I try that and see.
Not sure what you thought you saw, but you cannot see mutliplayer aircraft on LNM nor any software unless youâre using a third party app that other players are also using; VATSIM, IVAO, Transponder etc.
It doesnât matter what settings you have on. You can only see:
âLive ADSB trafficâ from REAL airplanes
AI traffic (considered the same as live traffic) which includes boats, which is why you saw boats. There arenât players en masse driving boats around.
