Version 3.0.12

Changes from 3.0.11 to 3.0.12

  • Problem with disappearing large range rings and other lines on very high and very close zoom
    distances fixed. Range rings > 4000 NM disappeared from the map when using Mercator projection
    or when zooming in close.
  • Fixed exception when downloading Oceanic tracks.
  • Fixed issue where ILS were missing for MSFS. Examples EGPH using ILS approach with an add-on
    airport.
  • EDDF double ILS as for runway 25R, using the ILS IFNW and IFNR now correctly used for MSFS.
    The right ILS is selected for display when using the related approach.
  • Fixed broken airway collection for X-Plane. Example: Airway W66 not found for the flight plan
    route description ZUCK ATBUG W66 JNQ ZWWW. #1197
  • Fixed issue where last airway in scenery library was omitted. This affected all simulators.
  • Better error reporting and validation in log file for invalid taxiway structures in MSFS. #1200
  • Display of marker beacons now disabled if ILS or airports are not shown.
  • Fixed missing circles for online towers and centers not having a matching geometry in the user
    airspace database. This also disabled the tooltips on the map.
  • Corrected online center size settings in options on page 'Map Online`. Little Navmap now falls
    back to user defined value if an online center does not provide a visual range value. Fixed values
    reset back to default when applying options.
  • Fixed several issues in X-Plane database when assigning airports to procedures. As a result
    procedures could not be loaded from flight plans and the airport procedures menu was wrongly disabled.
    Examples for X-Plane 12: No procedures were found for Pokhara Intl (VNPR) and Qualicum Beach (AT4)
    since their X-Plane ident does not match official airport codes like ICAO, FAA or local.
    Note that X-Plane 11 may still refuse to load flight plans created using such airports while there
    are normally no issues using X-Plane 12.
  • Wrong procedure centering when clicking in procedure search corrected. Now depends on visibility
    of the missed approach.
  • Improved export of X-Plane FMS files if airport has several idents. Flight plans using
    Qualicum Beach (AT4) and similar cases as departure or destination can now be loaded in X-Plane.
  • Removing fullscreen button now when copying map image to the clipboard or when saving screenshots.

See the included CHANGELOG.txt or here online for a complete list across all versions.

Changes from 3.0.9 to 3.0.11

Flight Plan

  • Now adding airport, parking or other start positions to the flight plan once connected to the
    simulator with an empty plan. This function can be disabled in options on page Files.
  • Now removing any alternate airport if the same airport is set as destination or if it is added
    otherwise to the flight plan.
  • Added option to disable minor error messages about missing parking spots in flight plan. Note
    that the settings for flight plan header and footer are reset to default.
  • Enabled reading and writing of NAT notation in flight plan route description. This fixes
    issues when downloading a flight plan using North Atlantic tracks from SimBrief or using the
    notation in the flight plan route description. Example: NATA is converted to NAT track A. #1110
  • Fixed issue with dropped airway information. This affected plans that have only one leg between
    departure and arrival. As a result an airway was dropped on saving, exporting and using it in the
    flight plan route description. Example: SBRJ EVKO3A.NAXOP UZ45 IBDA1A SBSP resulted in
    SBRJ EVKO3A.NAXOP IBDA1A SBSP. #1130
  • Fixed issue where parking spots could not be found resulting in an error message after reloading
    a flight plan when using the option Use Navigraph for all Features.
  • From 3.0.10.rc1 to 3.0.11: Made GPX file detection more tolerant. Now showing a warning if the
    GPX file does not contain any track points.
  • From 3.0.10.rc1 to 3.0.11: Flight plan route description is now updated after downloading or
    deleting oceanic tracks.
  • From 3.0.10.rc1 to 3.0.11: Now updating flight plan route description after switching simulator.
  • From 3.0.10.rc1 to 3.0.11: Corrected wrong error message File does not contain track points
    when loading GPX files.

Export

  • Added export format for FlightFactor Boeing 777 V2. This is a FMS format file with procedures
    stripped since the aircraft rejects loading FMS files with procedures.
  • Fixed issue where RealityXP GNS export declared the destination airport wrongly as a userpoint
    when using export option with userpoints.
  • Now using ISO date with offset from UTC in all flight plan files.

Elevation Profile

  • Increased number of samples when calculating elevation from GLOBE data to avoid missing peaks
    when drawing the elevation profile.
  • Added option for indicated altitude label to elevation profile. Enable this in menu Tools ->
    Elevation Profile Display Options in branch User Aircraft Labels -> Indicated Altitude.
  • Fixed wrong label description in profile configuration dialog mentioning wrongly
    Actual Altitude.

Map

  • Added function to decrease and increase the density of labels on the map. This is available in
    the detail toolbar button, menu Map, Ctrl+Shift+Mouse Wheel, Ctrl+Shift++ and Ctrl+Shift+-.
  • Added US VFR and IFR chart map themes.
  • Added option to show heading to departure runway position using a dashed line with arrows. This
    can be disabled in menu View -> Show Direction to Departure Runway. This line is drawn from
    the departure parking or aircraft position (if connected) and disappears when arriving at the
    runway or when taking off.
  • User and AI aircraft now drawn on top of user features like measurement lines or range rings.
  • Userpoints related to navaids like VOR now use the same size as the real navaids. Size of
    userpoints and navaids still can be changed separately in options. This affects airport, VOR, NDB,
    waypoint, Obstacle and VRP userpoints. The last three are based on the waypoint size. #1179
  • Improved display of procedure turn instructions. Reduced distance for turn leg to fix for a
    more realistic value. Extended stub leg for turn towards runway and removed distance display for
    this leg. Added missing restriction text for procedure turns.
  • Fixed alignment of procedure end or start for displaced simulator airport runways compared
    to the navdata. Example: ENOL on all simulators.
  • Approach runway position now correctly terminated at offset threshold.
  • First SID leg is now aligned with runway to avoid it being drawn all over the airport in
    some cases.
  • Better distance estimate for procedure legs terminated by altitude. Now considering altitude.
  • Fixed disappearing user aircraft tooltip after automatic trail truncation.
  • Fixed potential crash when truncating short aircraft trail and applied more optimizations
    for display.
  • Fixed issues with labels on long measurement lines and flight plan legs. Lines flipped direction
    arrows at certain zoom values.
  • Fixed issue where Great Circle airspace boundaries were drawn as a straight lines in some cases.
  • Improved display of airspaces that touch the poles.
  • Fixed issue where settings of some airspace types were not saved or applied. Note that airspace
    options are reset to default on update.
  • Added option to disable taxiway lines and names. These can be changed in options on page
    Map Labels in branch Airport Details. Note that airport display options are reset to default.
  • Fixes for menu Tools -> Reset Display Settings. These now affect only map display options in
    menu View.
  • Setting Load the map display saved settings on options page Startup and Updates now affects
    the same options as View -> Reset Display Settings now. This is map theme, map projection
    and detail levels as well.
  • Fixed issue where userpoints were not reset correctly when using
    Reset Display Settings.
  • Added shortcut Ctrl+C to copy coordinates at the cursor position in the map window to the
    clipboard. Note that you have to activate the map window by pressing F2 or clicking into it
    before using any shortcuts there.
  • Disabled Shift/Ctrl/Alt+Left/Right/up/Down keys for map scrolling to avoid shorcuts overlapping
    with operating system functions.
  • Fixed inadvertent movement or zooming on map display when using mouse wheel, keyboard shortcuts
    containing +, - or cursor keys.
  • Now stopping map drawing on overflow of highlighted map objects (e.g. selected navaids in the
    search result table) from search to avoid program freeze.
  • Fixed issue where the Too many objects message in the status bar was not reset in some cases.
  • Fixed missing tooltip for waypoints highlighted on the map which were selected in the navaid
    search result table.
  • Fixed issue where navaids like recommended fixes from flight plan procedures did not react to a
    single or double click.
  • From 3.0.10.rc1 to 3.0.11: Save Map as Image for AviTab now uses PNG as the default format
    since JPG may cause crashes.
  • From 3.0.10.rc1 to 3.0.11: Fixed issue where images can be saved using the wrong format ignoring
    selection in the format drop down box. Now always adding file suffix according to image type.
  • From 3.0.10.rc1 to 3.0.11: Fixed issue where wrong coordinates were used when selecting More ->
    Jump to Coordinates in map context menu.
  • From 3.0.10.rc1 to 3.0.11: Fixed issue where procedures zoomed too far out when showing in
    procedure search. This was caused due to too far ...

Changes from 3.0.8 to 3.0.9

  • Fixed issue where NOAA and X-Plane 12 weather stations were not updated and showed
    outdated weather.

  • Installer now removes all Dutch, Chinese and Spanish compiled .qm translation files before
    installing. These translations have not been updated for a long time which can cause problems in
    the user user interface. The resulting issues range from arrows pointing into the wrong
    direction to missing texts and numbers.
    You can still install the translations manually if you wish by downloading the related *.qm
    files from GitHub - littlenavmap - release/3.0
    and saving them in the directory translations in the installation folder.
    Contact me if you'd like to update a translation or if you would like to create a new one:
    Contact.

  • Attempt to fix crashes for the web server when accessing databases resulting in a crash.

  • Fixed issue where program could be started more than once if stuck in an early warning or
    question dialog window. This could result in crashes and other problems.

  • Now collecting detailed location information on crashes (stack traces). Note that this is only
    enabled for the Windows 64-bit version. Other operating systems already have means to collect crash
    information (Linux core files and macOS crash reports). A file
    C:\Users\YOURUSERNAME\AppData\Roaming\ABarthel\little_navmap_stacktrace.txt is created on crash
    and included in all generated crash reports.

  • Other small text changes in the user interface.

  • Updates to user manual.

Changes from 3.0.6 to 3.0.8

Flight Plan Loading and Export

  • Added export option for MSFS KLN 90B #1136
  • 3.0.7.rc1 to 3.0.8: Fixed KLN90B export to using kln.pln as filename. #1164
  • Added multiexport option for MSFS JustFlight BAE-14. This uses the QualityWings format.
  • Made loading of MSFS PLN flight plan files more tolerant for missing altitude in element
    WorldPosition.
  • Fixed issue where a wrong error message about invalid procedures appeared after loading a MSFS
    PLN file. The message appeared when saving loaded PLN as LNMPLN.
  • Better cruise altitude estimate if altitude could not determined from the flight plan after
    loading. Altitude is rounded up to 2000 ft to the maximum of departure and destination elevation if
    all else fails.
  • Changed file extensions in multiexport to be untranslatable for local language to avoid issues.
  • Now adding STAR entry waypoint plus airway to MSFS PLN export in certain cases. Removing
    destination runway waypoints from MSFS PLN export if STAR is used.
  • Fixed aircraft trail for logbook entry that was incorrectly truncated.
  • Corrected display of split aircraft trail when starting a new flight on ground. Previously
    the trails were shown wrongly connected.
  • Fixed an issue where the cruise altitude was set incorrectly after downloading a flight plan
    from SimBrief.

Weather

  • Added interpolated weather reports for NOAA, VATSIM, IVAO and X-Plane weather. These appear
    at airports having no METAR reports. Note that this does not cover cloud layers.
  • Added wind display for landing and takeoff runway in flight plan table header. This uses station
    or interpolated winds as selected in menu Weather -> Airport Weather Source.
  • Added support for Active Sky FS (MSFS).
  • Fixed issue where Active Sky weather was not updated.
  • Fixed crash that happened randomly when updating METAR data or switching between simulators with
    weather enabled.
  • Added sunrise and sunset to weather report page in information dock window.
  • Now showing weather stations with invalid reports crossed out on the map.
  • Fixed wrong time zone for METAR reports from FSX/P3D.
  • Better error messages for METAR decoding and outdated weather.
  • More optimizations to weather handling.

Random Flight Generation

  • Added shortcut to random flight creation: Menu Flight Plan -> Generate Random Flight. This
    opens the search dock window and activates the controls to generate a random flight.
  • Added a dialog window where a user can select either a fixed departure or a fixed destination
    airport for the random flight generation. Add at least one airport to your flight plan to enable this
    function. #1013
  • Random flight generation now puts the change on the undo/redo stack once the user accepts a
    generated flight. This is the same behavior as used in the flight plan route description which
    allows to restore a previous flight plan and its changes.
  • Adjusted the maximum distance for random flight plan to realistic values.
    The maximum is 10.800 NM.
  • Fixed the minimum and maximum distance for random flight search not being saved on exit.
  • Performance improvements and random selection for departure and destination functionality
    by u-an-i.

Procedures and Runway Selection

  • Improved procedure search. Now showing the first and last waypoint of procedures in the procedure
    tree. Also, showing the first and last waypoint of a selected procedure in the header. The header
    shows first and last for the full path including the procedure when selecting a transition.
  • Search now also looks for first and last waypoint of procedures. Procedures and and transitions
    are hidden if no criteria match text search. Procedures are expanded if a transition matches the
    search text. This allows finding the matching STAR for a selected approach and vice versa, for example.
  • Procedure view now tries to keep content when switching simulators, provided the airport exists
    in both simulators.
  • The procedure search tab now expands procedure branches already added to the flight plan.
    Procedures and/or respective transitions are expanded when showing procedures for departure or
    destination airport.
  • Runway selection dialog windows now have the current runway end from the flight plan preselected.
  • The selection in procedure search is not saved anymore when changing airports to avoid unwanted
    highlighting on the map.
  • Added Shift+F5 shortcut for procedure search.
  • Fixed issue where switching between simulator databases left the procedure search in an invalid
    state resulting in a crash.
  • Fixed issue where the show procedure menu item was not enabled in map context menu and others.
    Example: Weston (EIWT) on X-Plane. #1154
  • Procedures for a clicked airport can now be shown with checkbox Airports disabled in options on
    page Map Tooltips and Clicks.
  • Added keyboard shortcuts in procedure search. Hit Return to show a procedure or a waypoint in
    the tree. Use the Down key to activate the tree from text input field.

Logbook

  • Added cruise altitude from used flight plan to logbook table. The logbook table layout is reset
    back to default.
  • Logbook cleanup method improved. Extended function to cleanup off-airport coordinates like
    2956N10702E 4831N12255W in addition to empty airport idents.
  • Optimizations for aircraft trail loading and display for logbook entries.

Map Display

  • Added warning dialog if aircraft trail is too long after startup as a hint for performance
    issues. Also, showing warning if trail was truncated after loading a GPX file.
  • Fixed issue where updated maximum number of trail points was not applied until restart.
  • Fixed crash when fetching tooltip information for short aircraft trails.
  • Fixed disappearing flight plans and aircraft trails on high zoom distances or long flight plans.
    #1126
  • Fixed display issue where userpoints without type were hidden. Optimized code for userpoint
    display.
  • AI/multiplayer aircraft labels now have a appended if label texts are suppressed due to higher
    zoom distances Reworked aircraft label code.
  • Added internal object ID as optional aircraft label for AI/multiplayer. Enable this in options on
    page Map Labels in branch AI, Multiplayer and Online Client Aircraft.
  • Fixed wrong bearing for nearest radio navaids of airport in information dock window. Used wrong
    magnetic declination instead of airport value.
  • Attempt to fix not updating sun shading. #1125
  • Optimizations for airspace name and aircraft trail display.

Scenery Library

  • Fix for crash when reading BGL files having invalid airports.

Changes from 3.0.5 to 3.0.6

Flight Plan and Procedures

  • Fixed wrong warning for runway mismatches in procedure search. Showed unneeded mismatch warning
    for runways without procedure. Example: KSTK.
  • Fixed issue where SID/STAR could not be reloaded due to wrongly detected runway mismatch when
    using the MSFS scenery library. Example: EDDE ERNE1V EDDK/I14L
    could not load ERNE1V when loading the flight plan for MSFS.
  • Flight plan name now updated in window title bar when using Save or Save as.
  • Now correctly assigning ALL as runway designator to SID/STAR having no runway assignments in MSFS.
    Reload the scenery library if you use MSFS.
  • Fixed issue where STAR could not be loaded from MSFS PLN file. Example: KIAD/30 ANJLL4.DNERO KLAX/06L.
  • Fixed crash when modifying flight plan.

Flight Plan Route Description

  • Fixed issue where STAR keyword was not generated from flight plan in route description.
    Now always adding generic SID/STAR keywords in export formats like the Rotate MD-80 .txt format
    to avoid issues when loading plan in FMC.
  • Fixed issue with alternate airports having the same STAR as destination.
    Example: KVHN SSO SUNSS8 KDVT KPHX showed a wrong error message and used KPHX as destination.
  • Fixes in route description where description MUHA EPMAR3 MAXIM SNDBR3 KMIA was not recognized
  • Added Ctrl+Return shortcut to create flight plan from route description.
  • Fixed issues where airways were not recognized. Example: KCNM WHOLE EWM J4 SUNSS8.SSO KDVT where
    J4 was added as a far off NDB.
  • Fixed plan reset to VFR in route description. Flight plan type is now set from current flight plan
    type in window Flight Planning when clicking Load from Flight Plan.

Flight Plan Export

  • Reverted change for degree sign ° vs. * in MSFS PLN flight plan files to avoid issues with
    third-party software not capable to read this MSFS compatible format.
  • Added new multiexport format Microsoft Flight Simulator 2020 format using "*" as degree sign
    for cases where the simulator or add-ons cannot deal with the ° sign.
  • Removed obsolete annotated PLN export. Little Navmap can still read this format from old flight
    plans.

Map Display

  • Added three add-on airport map display options to menu View and toolbar.
    See User Manual - View Menu - Airports.
    1. Add-on no override (Ctrl+Alt+O): Add-on airports are shown like normal airports.
    2. Add-on override zoom (Ctrl+Alt+Z): Add-on airports override zoom distance only but filters
      like Soft Surface can still be used to hide them.
    3. Add-on override zoom and filter (Ctrl+Alt+Y): Add-on airports override zoom distance and
      filters, i.e. are always shown. Filters like Soft Surface have no effect on add-on airports.
  • Added airport filter preset Show only add-on airports in menu View and toolbar.
  • Map theme shortcuts for included themes can now be defined in DGML file.
  • Assigned shortcuts Ctrl+Alt+0 to Ctrl+Alt+7 for all default free included map themes.
    These do not change when adding additional themes.
  • Fixed disappearing related navaids when drawing procedures. This happened when navaid was outside
    the bounding box of the flight plan.
  • Added options for airport runway labels and taxiway label size on page Map Display in section
    Airports.

User Interface

  • Replaced outdated airway types Victor and Jet with Low and High everywhere in the program.
  • Fixed too small table cell height on Windows with the high DPI option switched off.
  • Now also closing the startup image splash window in all dialog windows to avoid being hidden.
    As a result, the program looked like frozen since the hidden dialog window blocked input.
  • Fix in Dutch shortcut translation ('Ctrl+D' vs. 'Ctrl+Down') which overlapped with other keys.
  • More user interface improvements.
  • Minimum number of trail points lowered to 1000.

Aircraft Progress

  • Added map, information and procedure links in progress tab for destination airport, top of climb,
    top of descent, next waypoint and related navaids.
  • Fixed wrong next waypoint indication when flying missed approach.

Logbook

  • Logbook takeoff and landing detection is now kept for program restart.
  • Improved logbook entry creation to avoid creating of unneeded entries. A flight can now be continued
    after program restart and logbook entry is updated accordingly.
  • Now detecting off-airport takeoff and landing. Logbook entries get coordinates in degree/minute
    format as departure and landing position in this case.

Other

  • Translations updated. Thanks to Flavio, Patrick and Ricardo!

Changes from 2.8.11 to 2.8.12

Installation and Startup

  • Added Inno Setup installer packages. This installs
    Little Navmap for all users in the folders Program Files for the 64-bit package or
    Program Files (x86) for the 32-bit package. Both can be installed in parallel. The installer
    creates start menu entries for all included programs as well as most important files and links.
    File types can optionally be associated with Little Navmap which allows to load a flight plan by
    double clicking on a LNMPLN file in Windows Explorer or other file managers. Little Navmap is
    then either started or a running instance is used to load a plan. See
    Little Navmap User Manual - Installation.
    Note that there is no need to install or modify any files in the installation folder. See also
    Little Navmap User Manual - Map Themes.
  • Removed restart requirement after installing MSVC Redistributables in 64-bit Windows
    installer (from 2.8.12.rc1).
  • Improved the detection of an already running instance of Little Navmap. Removed warning dialog
    for Program is already running situation. Instead the Little Navmap window is brought into
    foreground and any file passed to the program is opened. Furthermore, all files passed on the
    command line without parameters are checked for type and are loaded accordingly. This is working
    on Windows, macOS and Linux. See also
    Little Navmap User Manual - Command Line Options.
  • Now allowing to run more than one Little Navmap instance when using separate configuration folders.
  • Updated MSFS SimConnect DLL to the latest version 0.21.1.0.

Map

  • Added configuration option for degree grid in view menu. Select menu View ->
    Show Map Grid Configuration to change color of grid lines and labels.
  • Fixed issue where split user aircraft trails from previous version 2.8.10 were read wrongly
    and appeared all connected to one.
  • Corrected loading of oceanic tracks to avoid disappearing flight plan after load.
  • Now creating two backups for main trail file little_navmap.track to avoid data loss on update.
  • Now backing up configuration and track files with ..._update-backup.N suffix after installing
    and starting a new version to avoid data loss.
  • Corrected issue where map grid was drawn below landmass in some offline maps.
  • Menu and toolbar items for airspace altitude filter are now correctly selected again after
    restart.
  • Fixed missing flight plan waypoint tooltips and click spots with airway or track display enabled.
  • Added theme open flightmaps to included map themes.
    This is a modified version of the map theme by
    AmbitiousPilots including changes
    from b-faller.
  • Now showing top level map image tile correctly for open flightmaps instead of an black area.
  • Fixed more issues with the external map theme folder where maps having more than one layer like
    the open flightmaps map theme could not be used.
  • Updated map theme file example.dgml.
  • Corrected checking for duplicate elements of sourceDir in map theme DGML files for maps having
    more than one layer. This avoids the issue where different map themes might overwrite data in the
    cache folder.

Userpoint and Logbook

  • Fixed problem where no error was shown when importing invalid userpoint or logbook CSV files.
  • Fixed issue where an aborted CSV import might corrupt the undo data in some cases.
  • Update CSV import and export for userpoints to allow unit suffixes in altitude. Now detecting
    suffixes m for meter and f for feet to import altitude in respective units. Feet is
    default when using no suffix.
  • Fixed various issues with units in userpoint edit dialog. Now correctly setting and displaying
    metric units for Visible from and Elevation or altitude. Corrected Visible from display in
    userpoint search result table. Now using more precision in userpoint altitude to avoid rounding
    errors between units.

Flight Plan and Export

  • Corrected wrong error message for procedures having a MAP lower than airport elevation.
    Example: FAUP RNAV UP1F1 (R35)
  • Fix in flight plan export for MSFS where several waypoints are moved to North. Thanks to Github user
    eaides for the hint. #1038
  • Added selection box for IFR or VFR flight plan type to route description.

Other

  • Fixed issues where X-Plane simulator weather was not loaded from manually set folder without a
    X-Plane installation. The weather was not loaded and wrong warning dialog was shown.
    This is the case when Little Navmap runs on an networked or remote computer and the weather
    is loaded from a shared network drive from the flying computer.
  • Flight plan route description dialog is now updated on style change.
  • Moved AI and online aircraft menu items to sub-menu in View to avoid menu size limitation.
  • More fixes in weather to skip unneeded reading of ActiveSky weather files. These are now read
    on demand if ActiveSky sky options like tooltips are enabled.
  • Fixed crash when copying log file on size overflow which was introduced with 2.8.12.rc1.
    This resulted in a random crash to desktop while loading the scenery library.
  • Fixed crash when loading Active Sky files if Active Sky file path was set manually and removed
    later on.
  • Corrected menu items and toolbar buttons which remained disabled after connecting to simulator.

Little Navconnect Version 2.8.7

  • Added support for system tray icon. Close button on window frame now optionally minimizes window
    to system tray. Enable this in menu Window -> Minimize to system tray. The tray icon is always
    visible. System tray icon shows last five messages from log in tooltip. #712
    See Little Navconnect User Manual - Tray.
  • Tray icon has a context menu to restore window, show settings and more. Left click on the tray icon
    to restore or minimize the Little Navconnect window.
  • New option Window -> Start minimized to system tray to start program without opening a window.
  • Fixed various issues with text field updates causing warnings in log file.
  • Updated user manual.

Changes from 2.8.10 to 2.8.11

Flight Plan and Export

  • Now recognizing runway assignments from SimBrief when downloading flight plans. This fixes the
    random runway assignment after import.
  • Now resolving SID and STAR transitions when loading MSFS PLN flight plan files. This also works
    for the SimBrief exported plans where the STAR name is omitted on the first waypoint. Note that
    this is not 100 percent reliable due to deficits in the MSFS PLN file format design.
  • Trying to automatically select approach transitions for matching STAR waypoint similar as
    MSFS if an approach procedure is selected when importing MSFS PLN files.
  • Improved X-Plane FMS export. Airports with procedures are now always saved with keywords ADEP or
    ADES to allow manual departure or arrival procedure selection in the GPS or FMS.
  • Added warning if the scenery library mode Use Navigraph for all Features is enabled when
    exporting X-Plane FMS files to avoid issues when selecting procedures in the FMS or GPS.
  • Fixed wrong error message when calculating elevation profile due to required vertical angle
    conflicting with an altitude restriction. Example: Airport LTFM with approach I17LX and other
    ILS at LTFM. Vertical angle is now ignored in such cases.
  • Fixed issue with excessive fight plan altitude on loading causing program freeze and crash.
    This can happen when importing a flight plan using a format which does not provide cruise altitude
    information like FMS in some cases or FSC PLN.
  • Now using best guess to set cruise altitude automatically after loading flight plan format without
    support for cruise altitude. This is based on procedure and airway restrictions.
  • Added warning dialog if cruise altitude cannot be loaded from flight plan and has to be estimated.
  • Applying best guess now for flight plan type (IFR/VFR) when loading flight plan formats not
    supporting this.
  • Now attempting to load SID, STAR and respective transitions from FSC PLN files.
  • Added workaround for broken X-Plane FMS flight plans having partially invalid altitude information.
  • Rounding error related procedure altitude violations corrected when using metric altitude.
  • Fixed issues with wrong flight plan cruise altitude when using metric altitude.
    Rounding errors in cruise altitude when loading and saving plans with metric altitude are minimized now.
  • Added new optional element CruisingAltF to LNMPLN file format to avoid rounding errors when using
    metric units.
  • Now using metric speed and altitude designators in route description if units are set accordingly
    in options on page Units.
  • Fixed issue where imported flight plan (for example in FMS or PLN format) could be overwritten with the
    LNMPLN format after updating the plan from a route string.
  • Fixed issues with default filename generation having CRUISEALT parameter. Now using local altitude
    unit as set in options.
  • Adjusted route string reader to prefer a close VOR or waypoint before a NDB with the same ident.
  • Fixed flight plan export and save functions to avoid suggesting filenames containing /, \
    or other invalid characters.
  • Fixed issue where airway information in flight plan at STAR entry was dropped after manually
    adding a STAR.
  • Now removing first waypoint RW from X-Plane FMS 11 if a departure runway is selected. This avoids
    confusing the stock FMS and GPS which gave wrong turn indications.

Flight plan route description

  • The lower part of the input field can now be used as a scratch pad. The upper bold highlighted
    section separated by an empty line is the current route description which is read and interpreted.
    The lower gray description texts are a part of the scratch pad. These are saved on program exit but
    ignored apart from that.
  • The function Create flight plan now reads the first paragraph in the input field, i.e. until
    the first empty line.
  • 'Load from flight plan' inserts the route description on top of the input field and leaves other
    texts below intact.
  • Added undo/redo buttons to route description dialog window.
  • Fixed issues where airways and waypoints were dropped in some cases.

Scenery Library

  • Added optional automatic navdata selection depending on simulator and AIRAC cycle. The new option in
    menu Scenery Library -> Navigraph -> Select Automatically is enabled per default and selects
    the right navdata mode when switching between simulators or after compiling the database. The automatically
    selected mode can be seen in the disabled menu items in menu Navigraph or in the window title bar.
    Little Navmap User Manual - Navigraph
  • The mode Use Navigraph for all Features is now enabled per default on first run after a fresh
    installation to have airports available if the simulator database is empty This is independent of
    the AIRAC cycle.
  • Added option to include extra directories for scenery library scanning. Extra folders extending
    MSFS Community, X-Plane Custom Scenery or FSX/P3D Addon Scenery can be added in
    options on page Scenery Library Database in the top list. #959
    Little Navmap User Manual - Scenery Library Database
  • Added message in dialog window Load Scenery Library indicating excluded folders. This is a
    hint since wrong and unintended exclusions can often cause issues like missing airports.
  • More cleanup for MSFS airport names. Now removing leading and trailing space from all names to
    allow search since some airport names are entered wrongly with spaces.
  • Fixed issue where MSFS navdata update was recognized despite having its folders excluded.
  • Fixed country names appearing as language keys when compiling MSFS. Names are now empty again
    since MSFS does not provide these.
  • Corrected detection and reading of Navigraph navdata update in MSFS. Now reading airports from
    update. Navdata and procedures are omitted. Wrongly excluded package is now read. Speed up for
    reading scenery library by ignoring unused procedures from navdata update. #1019
  • Workaround for missing aircraft model translations since MSFS SU12.
  • Now adding start positions for runways and parking spots in Navigraph navdata compiler to allow
    departure parking selection for runways as well when using mode Use Navigraph for all Features.
    This change will appear with future Navigraph navdata updates.
  • Updated included Navigraph cycle 1801 to cover above mentioned database changes.
  • X-Plane 12 manually corrected localizers file is now read.
  • Corrected overzealous filter for MSFS airport dummy structures which removed add-on helipads or
    airports. Example add-on: willicopta-spital-la-chaux-de-fonds-lsh9 which did not show up.

Userpoints

  • Added quick Mark Airport as Add-on function in all related context menus in map, flight plan
    table and airport search result table. This inserts a userpoint of type Addon without additional
    editing. The labels of this userpoint type (yellow ring) are not shown on map to avoid overlap
    with the airport labels. You can add your own types starting with text Addon. These will be
    treated the same way.

with MSFS version SU12.

See also MSFS Common Problems in the FAQ.

Changes from 2.8.9 to 2.8.10

  • Navigraph selection is now remembered for each simulator selection separately. This means that
    the Navigraph selection is automatically changed when switching between simulators. The simulator
    and Navigraph selection is reset on the first startup on update. Use the menu item
    Scenery Library -> Validate Scenery Library Settings to check your settings.
  • Created a clone of the scenery library settings validation menu item Scenery Library ->
    Validate Scenery Library Settings on the toolbar.
  • Added support for ActiveSky for X-Plane 12. Little Navmap detects the ASX 12 files
    automatically when selecting the X-Plane 12 scenery library.
  • Changed flight plan export for TDS GTNXi to add waypoint coordinates for disambiguation as well
    as procedures. This should help with flight loading issues due to navdata cycle mismatches.
  • Added TDS GTNXi export using waypoints only.
  • Density altitude added to airport weather report in window Information on tabs
    Airport -> Weather.
  • Added density altitude to aircraft progress if aircraft is on ground. This is disabled per
    default and can be enabled in the menu Tools -> Aircraft Progress Display Options by checking
    Density Altitude in branch Environment.
  • ILS, GLS and RNP approach slopes in elevation profile can now be forced to display for all
    approach types:
    • Disable ILS or GLS/RNP on the toolbar or in the menu View -> Navaids to see only flight
      plan related navaids on the map and approach related navaids in the elevation profile. This means
      you won't see an ILS slope for a VOR approach, for example.
    • Enable ILS to see slopes in the elevation profile independent of the approach type. A
      destination runway or an approach has to be selected to see the slope.
  • Menu item Map -> Remove all Highlights and Selections (shortcut Ctrl+H) now also clears
    the multi procedure preview (Preview all Procedures in procedure search context menu).
  • Added link Show Procedures besides link Map to related airport information tabs to avoid
    context menu use for departure or destination airport.
  • Now copying flight plan cruise altitude over to the flight plan calculation window when opening
    or changing it in flight plan window.
  • More accuracy for flight plan calculation preference slider.
  • Added blue question mark help buttons to information and aircraft progress windows linking to the
    related user manual chapters.
  • Fixed userpoints category not being enabled after assigning a new type to a userpoint.
    This avoids the confusing disappearance of a userpoint after changing the type.
  • Added workaround for missing translations in MSFS for AI or multiplayer aircraft. Needs a reload
    of the scenery library.
  • Adjusted airport rating calculation for MSFS. Now setting airports having only automatically
    generated apron snippets to zero rating which equal to Empty Airport. Fix needs reloading
    the scenery library.
  • Now using correct localizer width in map for Navigraph and MSFS navaids. Localizer width added to
    ILS information display in tab Navaids and map display depiction. Note that this is only
    available for FSX, P3D, MSFS and future Navigraph databases. Needs a reload of the scenery
    library. #1011
  • Wind pointer size on top of map now depends on set font size for map.
