Right, that is related to the problem. Depending on configuration the GPWS relies on a specific altitude source which is only available for YASim right now. You could switch the "<category-8>" parameter to 3 (instead of 2) - and the GPWS will work with JSBSim and other FDMs. However, please wait before pushing any ac changes, since this solution isn't good enough. The point here is that the GPWS needs a pretty accurate altimeter source for main-gear-above-ground-level, otherwise the important final callouts ....20.....10 make no sense. Since there is no such FDM source (except for YASim) we'll need to hook it to the radio altimeter instrument - which isn't available as a GPWS default source yet. I'll be changing and testing something here - and hopefully push something later this week (also a Wiki update, if required). Thanks for the report! And to reiterate: everyone, please report if you notice something wasn't working. Just add something to the tracker. Yes, reports there are monitored and bugs fixed (eventually) - even if some issues cannot be fixed on the same day :). cheers, Thorsten ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Increase Visibility of Your 3D Game App & Earn a Chance To Win $500!
