Good afternoon
For a few days the GPS has not worked for me, it has always done perfectly, but now when I start the TDSGTNxiflightsim.exe.
The screen is completely black (of course with the plane powered up and on).
from TDSGPSManager. I have reinstalled again, but everything is still the same.
Could you please tell me a solution?
I downloaded new manager version 1.0.07 however does not run when executing ¡¡¡
I have old 1.0.0.3, and it open and run but , the reinstallation does not get something right
Thanks

Stutters with GTN in VC (Arrow III) |

Hi,
The GTN seems to be causing big stutters in my sim when used in the VC.
The only plane that I own which has VC integration is the Just Flight ARROW III so all my observations will be based on this combination.
Some background on my computer specs:
Core i7 9700K, 32GB DDR4, RTX2080Ti, FS2020 installed on an SSD (samsung 970EVO)
I am running FS2020 in 4K, on a 144Hz GSync screen, fs2020 SU8.
My observations:
When flying the Arrow III with the GTN, I noticed that the sim sort of "pauses" every second or so for a very short while. If I go to the outside view and keep panning around the plane it is very noticeable as the camera movements got those sorts of hiccups.
I tried lots of configurations. I tried disabling GSync, capping the framerate at 30fps in Nvidia manager but still had the issue.
On the arrow III, once loaded, even if I changed the GPS option in the plane's EFB to a default GPS, I still had the issue.
If I uninstall TDS GTN, the issue disappears and the plane can be used normally.
Now, when running my tests, I found something VERY strange. If I open ANY other window (be it task manager, notepad, literally anything) and keep this window focused, the issue disappears ! For example, in FS2020 I switch to external view and start panning around the plane. I see the stutters. Now I open any window and keep it focused in front of the sim. If I pan around the plane, it is butter smooth ! If I click on the FS2020 window, bam, the stutters come back.
I tried running FS in windowed or full screen and it did not make any difference.
Any help would be appreciated.
Best regards.

Garmin trainer not detected, except that it is - trap for new users from P3D/XPlane |

I guarantee I'm not the first one to be stung with this one
I have the RXP GTN installed for P3D which is also based off of the Garmin trainer, and I was very pleased to see when I installed the TDS GTN that it picked up that install of the trainer so the install only took 30 seconds and I didn't end up with 2 trainers taking up drive space.
Nice, right up until I launched MSFS and up came an error about the GTN NXi trainer not being installed, please reinstall via the manager.
Several minutes of searching later I found that the manager is the installer, like most people in these days of decent broadband I just open installers without saving them so I didn't have it, easily solved, and it said the latest version of the Garmin trainer was definitely there.
Cue headscratching, then I had the idea to see if the NXi worked in the Garmin trainer and voila - the RXP unit needs the base Garmin GTN trainer and that is what the manager checks for, the TDS unit needs the GTN NXi add-on within the garmin trainer which isn't installed by default and the manager doesn't check for it. Once I sussed that out a single click on an 'install' button inside the trainer added that NXi trainer and we're over that hurdle.
Not the first, won't be the last, leaving this here for the next person that needs it

VNAV Descent Using Autopilot |

Are VNAV descents using Autopilot available with this software?
After several hours of testing with both VC and standalone setups have not been able to fly a VNAV descent using the autopilot to follow a profile. Comfortable with the process from simulator and RL experience, but noticed that after engaging VNAV to follow a profile ... do not see a change to VPATH and aircraft does not descend.
Enjoying the software otherwise and appreciate clarification on this question.
Thank you!
