GSX menu not opening
« on: April 01, 2022, 02:12:09 pm »
Hi!

I have installed gsx and gsx level 2 version 2.9.5 for p3d v5.3 hf2 (5.3.17.28160) and can't get the gsx menu up when i am at a gate in any airport default or addon. The menu does open when i spawn on the active runway and i can choose a gate but whenever i spawn at a gate i can't open up the gsx menu. So when is spawn on the active runway i can press ctrl+f12 and the menu opens but at a gate nothing happens with ctrl+f12. Also i can't see gsx on the add on section in the p3d settings, but it works in the sim like mentioneds before. Also i can edit the parking stand via the gsx so i assume it's working properly. Worth mentioning that i had to also use the universal installer to get gsx working in the first place so at least that worked for me. I'll leave some attachments so hopefully it helps understanding this issue. Both of the screenshots are from Tokyo Narita RJAA by drzewiecki design and are from the same scenario. What i have read about problems with gsx it may be an afcad problem but i don't have any idea how to solve them.

Your screenshots shows GSX is working perfectly.

Some reasons why the menu doesn't open on a gate:

- GSX is trying to tell you you made something wrong, like not having the parking brakes or not having turned off the engines, or your airplane being too big but, if you turned down the GSX Verbosity slider all the way down, you won't see any of such message. The same, if you disabled the "Info text" in the P3D settings. GSX should also make a sound in this case but, if for some reason you have sounds disabled, you might not hear it.

- Because of an AFCAD conflict, the gate position might be wrong, so GSX thinks you are not in the parking but, in this case, you should see the other menu, the one that comes when your are outside the parking spot.
