KA 350i MFD FPLN text problem [Working on 1.2]

[ChuckOman]

Using P3D4 SP1 (Orbx Central v20.05.24).
When MFD is configured to display 4 lines of FPLN, characters after waypoint name are compressed. Any idea what is causing this ? (see attached screen shot)

By the looks of it you are missing the proper fonts, also the screen seems distorted, is this on a 2d window or the VC?

Try a clean install of the newest beta running the installer as admin. If you don't the program can't install the fonts required without the elevated privilege's

Is there a reason for not running V4.5? We typically only support the latest versions of the sim.

Hi Steve -

Sorry, I should have made it clear - I am running P3D4.5 HF2.
I bought my KA 350I via Orbx Central.
Orbx hasn't yet posted the P3D4.5 & 5 update released by MV last week.
So I can't yet get it.
Any reason to think Orbx won't provide the new P3D4.5/5 version ?
Assuming they will, I'm happy to wait for the new release, rather than downloading the MV 350i forum's last beta.

Honestly, my MFD text thing is NBD - overall I've been quite impressed how clean the June 2 SP1 version is.
You guys have been really diligent over the past year in polishing this amazingly deep sim.
Many thanks !

Feel free to get the version from here. Your key should be available on ORBX central or you can wait on the official update from orbx using their installer. Thanks for the compliment, there's dozens of corrections compared to SP1 version ( I believe the 1.1.40 beta is the same as the released version)

Thanks Steve.
Unable to download 1.1.40 Beta using the link here on the forum.
Link appears dead, perhaps because of the latest release.
I'll go bug the Orbx folks about getting it posted there. Or try to get my license transferred to MV store, where all my earlier licenses are.

Resolved - Got an v1.2 installer link from Osh, and upgraded. Indeed the new .dll fixed my squished MFD fonts problem.
