Seeing traffic on ForeFlight
Hi,
I saw a post about editing an Ini file to see PE traffic in ForeFlight.
This file is now a BaK file so I am trying to get this right.
Is it possible to do? If so, how?

Keith, that is great news for all the users of ForeFlight. Any chance this will work with Garmin Pilot? I use Garmin Pilot all the time with X-plane as it helps with RW training. Thanks in advance for any help.

Re: Seeing traffic on ForeFlight
I have no idea. It appears that Garmin Pilot replicated ForeFlight's protocol for GPS location and AHRS data (hence, it's compatible with X-Plane as a result), but I have no idea if it allows for traffic. You can try it and see but I wouldn't be hopeful.dvlourie wrote:Keith, that is great news for all the users of ForeFlight. Any chance this will work with Garmin Pilot?

Keith - do I enter two IP addresses if I'm using FF on both my iPad and my iPhone?

No, pick one or use a broadcast address instead of a targeted IP address (ie, change the last number to 255)ChipDeMoss wrote:Keith - do I enter two IP addresses if I'm using FF on both my iPad and my iPhone?

Re: Seeing traffic on ForeFlight
Keith - I was playing around with it before your reply and got both working using a comma and space as follows:
192.168.1.77, 192.168.1.74
Chip
192.168.1.77, 192.168.1.74

Re: Seeing traffic on ForeFlight
Chip, are you talking about entering this into xplane or the ini file? I was referring to the latter for pilotedge traffic.
