Thanks for the video. A Heads up, I could not get ForeFlight to connect and couldn’t figure out what was wrong. What I figured out was do not rely solely on the IP address displayed in ForeFlight. That was my issue, it was showing a different address than my Wi-Fi address and it took awhile for me to realize it. Hope this helps :-)

If you're coming to the comments because its not working for you... follow all steps as described in the video. In addition, make sure your IP address isn't hidden with a unique address. Go to wifi and select your wifi connection and tap on it. Scroll down and toggle off private wifi address. Go back to Foreflight and get your new IP Address and plug it into the Flight Events app. You should be good to go. Great video either way.

How do you get foreflight to display on teh actual MSFS Screen as opposed to the IPAD
@Turbochuck4 ай бұрын
I don't know if you can. It only looks that way in the video because of how I edited it. You could use something like Reflector to stream the iPad to your PC, but you won't be able to interact with it on your PC.

Lol, do you actually fly out of KDWH? I was setting the program up, and didn’t even notice we were at the same departure airport until everything was complete! What a coincidence! 😅 Well, your Flight Events window said KDWH, but you were positioned at KAUS.
@Turbochuck4 ай бұрын
I fly out of KAUS. I'm not sure why KDWH showed up, possibly from a past flight plan I had set up. Still, not far off!

@Turbochuck2 жыл бұрын
I've done it, but it's complicated. I use Reflector 3 to stream my iPad to my PC. Then, in Oculus Link, I can pin that window from my PC desktop in the VR view. It's kinda glitchy though.

@@Turbochuck The quest pro IS PERFECT for this, Its immersive enough, and you can CLEARLY look down and see everything, I can play in VR with joy sticks and switches etc. can see foreflight by looking down with decent angle too, and makes it much more realistic feeling. Since in a plane you looking down you would see your lap anyway is more realistic than in MSFS with nothing there like you are a ghost lmao.

FlightEvents is very finnicky. I would try temporarily disabling any antivirus software and review the section in this video where I showed how to make a firewall exception. Also, make sure both your computer and iPad are on the same wireless network.

Can you export a flight plan from Fore Flight to MSFS or import a flight plan from MSFS?
@Turbochuck3 жыл бұрын
I'm not 100% sure. In theory, you could use SimBrief to generate a flight plan and import that into MSFS and Foreflight, although I haven't tried this. If I get some time, I'll do some research on this and potentially cover it in a video.

can you bring it into vr with the reverb g2
@Turbochuck3 жыл бұрын
I'm not sure. I have an Oculus and I was able to stream my iPad to my PC using Reflector and then use Virtual Desktop to pin that window in my VR. I'm not sure what the Reverb has for virtual desktop, but you should be able to do something similar.

@Turbochuck3 жыл бұрын
If you plug an Oculus Link cable into the Quest, the dashboard that comes up will let you select one of your monitors with the Virtual Desktop option, or you can click Add Desktop Panel to bring any open window on your PC into VR. When that's up in VR, there's a pin you can click on the lower right corner of the window.

I've noticed that the actual taxiways are correct (for the most part) but they can be labeled differently. It's gotten significantly better since release, so I think that's something they're working to improve.
