Waypoints are present in map, but cannot be selected in GPS

Hello all,

I searched the forum to see if a similar situation could've happened to someone, but I couldn't find it.

I'm on P3D 4.5. The updated data (waypoints, navaids, ILSes, airspaces, airways, comms etc.) are being normally loaded in P3D's map or flight planner. However, if, for example, I want to fly DCT to one of those new waypoints, my GPS doesn't recognize it (with its coordinates, for example) and it cannot be loaded.

Can you help me, please?

Thanks!

Hello,
They can be loaded correctly on any of the default GPS, or any add-on GPS that uses the default flight simulator database.
I did a quick test, and I could load several updated waypoints that were not originally on the stock database.
What GPS unit are you using?

Regards,

Hello, Jose.

I was using Vertx DA62's GPS, A2A GPS and Flysimware Falcon 50 GPS.

When I load Aero Sors solution, it works normally.

Dunno what is happening.

Best regards,
Filipe

Hello,
Sorry, but I'm not able to reproduce it, and no other user has reported a similar problem. Other users have reported conflicts when using fsAerodata alongside other navigation databases; this could explain the problems you're reporting.
