C90 GTX FMS Data Base Loading Error?

Avatar

Question: Hello, I have recently purchased the King Air C90 GTX. The plane works as expected, except for the fact that the FMS constantly shows a screen with the message "LOADING DATA BASE" Any ideas as to how I can fix this?

Fix: I appreciate the effort put forth in attempting to solve my problem, but I just solved it for myself!! I just installed the plane using the "FSX" setting, rather than the "FSX Steam" setting when asked to select my sim during installation. I do use FSX Steam, but installing it as "FSX" worked perfectly, and it now works seamlessly. Thank you!

    I have tried everything that I know of to try and get the hawker 850xp to run at better frame rates than 1 fps.  I have put in at least 30 support tickets and they keep telling me it is a navigraph permissions issues, so I tried their so called fix and it still didnt work at all.   I also tried uninstalling my citation 550 that I bought from then and installing the hawker and no joy either.   I then went to navigraph to email them and fat chance on getting a hold of them to help.   SO THIS IS MY ADVICE TO EVERYONE ON THIS FORUM !!!   DO NOT BUY ANY AIRCRAFT FROM CARENADO YOU ARE WASTING YOUR MONEY BUY YOUR AIRCRAFT FROM PEOPLE LIKE REAL AIR OR EAGLESOFT IF YOU WANT A PRODUCT THAT OPERATES WELL AND WITH BETTER SUPPORT.    THE PEOPLE AT CARENADO DO NOT KNOW WHAT THEY ARE DOING!!!

    The fix for FSX Steam addition as BowserBob ( initial post) explained worked perfectly for "loading Data" issue. No further problems. Just be sure to select FSX as the Simulator in lieu of FSX Steam and point the directory towards the FSX Steam-it will install correctly.

    Found that if the weather radar is completely disabled in Prepar3d then the FMS navigraph works.

    If you choose FSX Steam during install-the installer was looking for a Dll.xml file in a non existant FSX-SE folder in AppData-Roaming-Microsoft- so

    I created a FSX-SE folder in AppData-Roaming-Microsoft,

    Ran the Installer again

    Copied the FSX-SE contents or Dll.xml to the AppData-Roaming-Microsoft-FSX Folder

    (the installer incorrectly looks for FSX-SE for the Steam edition- thereby disabling the Collins Pro-Line FMS for me)

    Ok so here I am on my 9th day trying to "fix" or "load" my FMC with NO LUCK!!! I am beyond frustrated with Carenado with their lack of concern! I submitted a support ticket with Carenado and in a timly manner did respond with this email... { Carenado } "what aircraft? what simulator?" { me } "KingAir 350i and Cessna 525A CJ2 on FSX-SE" { Carenado } "Did you try the steps described on our knowledge base under "FPS on H850XP" or "C90 GTx"?
    As this could be a Navigraph files reading permissions issue" { me } "So I am in the middle of h850 XP knowledge Base information... and when I go to click disable inheritance a box pops up asking me what would I like to do with the current inherited permission?... 1. Convert inherited permissions into explicit permissions on this object? Or 2. Remove all inherited permissions from this object?... please advise on what I click on?"... then DEAD AIR NO responds back just dead!!! I am extremely upset with Carenado with them selling a product that is faulty and then refuses to back the product with customer service. NOW I know there will be a lot of people asking me if I followed instruction on the web on how to get the FMC going and to answer that YES yes I did { hence my frustration } HOWEVER the FMC is STILL not loading. So please can someone please give VERY VERY detailed information to get this FMC loaded... thank you

    I solved it by:

     

    1. renaming the /AppData/Roaming/Lockheed Martin/Prepar3d v3 to /Microsoft/FSX (Note, it will merge with the existing Microsoft folder)

    2. Installing the product

    3. Renaming back again the folder to /Lockheed Martin/Prepar3d v3

     

    Hope it works !

    Hi Guys, in my case (I use FSX-SE), I re-installed, but this time I choose FSX only (not FSX-SE). And worked perfectly, even the weather radar.

    Hope can help....

    Same with me, but I just followed some tips that some guys post here:

    Reinstall c90 as normal FSX and not FAX Steam Edition, and than was completely normal :)

    P3D V4 Fix

    Check the dll.xml file, which is found here in win 10
    C:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4 for the following entry.

    <Launch.Addon>
        <Name>Carenavigraph</Name>
        <Disabled>False</Disabled>
        <Path>.\Carenavigraph.dll</Path>
      </Launch.Addon>

    It should look like this

    <Launch.Addon>
        <Name>Carenavigraph</Name>
        <Disabled>False</Disabled>
        <Path>.\Carenavigraphx64.dll</Path>
      </Launch.Addon>

    For some reason the x64 is missing off of the end of the .dll file name.

    Work for the Hawker 850 and King Air 350i

    This is what ended up working for me (Windows 10 64, Prepar3D v.4). Hope this helps. Cheers.

    Add the following code to DLL.xml (C:\Users\PREMIER\AppData\Roaming\Lockheed Martin\Prepar3D v4). It is very important to add the code AFTER "<SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">"

    Code to add:

    <Launch.Addon>
    <Name>Carenavigraph</Name>
    <Disabled>False</Disabled>
    <Path>.\Carenavigraphx64.dll</Path>
    </Launch.Addon>

    Your updated DLL.xml file should look something like this:

    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="Windows-1252"?>

    <SimBase.Document Type="Launch" version="1,0">
    <Descr>Launch</Descr>
    <Filename>dll.xml</Filename>
    <Disabled>False</Disabled>
    <Launch.ManualLoad>False</Launch.ManualLoad>
    <Launch.Addon>
    <Name>Carenavigraph</Name>
    <Disabled>False</Disabled>
    <Path>.\Carenavigraphx64.dll</Path>
    </Launch.Addon>

    When I purchased the 525A Citation CJ2, I was ignorant of the fact that there was a limit on the number of downloads for any of your products.  So, I do appreciate the fact that I can ask for a reset of the aircraft downloads. Thank you for the reset and your time in solving my problem. Thanks!

     

    I have the following beautiful Carenado aircraft installed:

     

    525A Citation CJ2

     

    C185F

     

    CT182T Skylane

     

    SR22 GTSX Turbo

     

    B200 KingAir

     

    C172SP

      Success!

      Thanks to the above collaborative effort, I have successfully updated my NAV.

    Carenado CJ2 / FSX-SE / Win 10.

      I had to edit the dll.xml.  Make sure you put it AFTER the Sim line, and indent the middle two lines.                           

      Navigraph and Carenado have to do a better job with auto mapping, installing, etc. 

      And they really need to get this info out to the customers  Carenado with a RTF file upon unzipping and prior to install, and NaviGraph getting their mapping pointed in the right direction.  They have caused MUCH frustration and wasted time.

      Thanks to all of you in the forum, Jim.
