SPAACARS V. 9.0 Released

Sorry Bill,

This is very strange. I'm not finding this, but have not tested it against PMDG 737. It would seem that it is changing it's payload weight after you have things set. The reloading of things probably reset your fuel, causing the second message, as this message can only happen if your current fuel is greater than it was the last time it was checked. I can't think of any reason you would get more fuel and - other than changing it or reloading the plane, this would not happen.

As for the payload issue, I've made an additional change that might work - I hope. I've updated the download file to version 9.2.1 that now updates your payload to the current payload if any change is not excessive. Please try downloading again, it should say version 9.2.1 at the top of the program window when running. If you get this payload error again, please note what it says to set your payload to, and then check your total payload weight in your simulator and report these two figures to me so I can get an idea of what PMDG has done with the original payload weight value once you've begun your flight.

Thanks,

John

That's a very big difference in payload Bill,

Is it possible you're starting SPAACARS and pressing "Start Log" button before you have your desired aircraft set up in your simulator?

You must first have your simulator set with the desired aircraft before starting SPAACARs "Start Log" button, otherwise SPAACARs takes the current aircraft as the one of your choice.

Once p3d comes off pause and the aircraft is checked again - it will fail because it's looking for an initial aircraft/payload.
