    Great Idea! It worked for a short time, but now I experience the stutters when LNM WebServer runs. I tried to put the flow directly into the community folder, but the "file name too long error "appears. I contacted Alex (author of LNM) but he had no solution.

    Hi can you assist its in my Flow Pro wheel and it opens but it will not resize it is just a small square

    over 2 years ago

    Hi Brev, I can try to assist. Are you on PC or VR?
    I heard now that the widget has resizing issues in VR. I cannot reproduce this debug this as I do not own a VR headset.
    Would it help to offer an option to set it manually to a preferred size (in pixel)?

    Hi LMK its in VR TIA

    Great widget. Wish I could use it. Worked fine for a couple of days and then LNM webserver started stuttering, making the LNM webserver unusable. Does not appear to be your widget. I I removed it from community folder and shut off transmitter, but every time I start LNM webserver it stutters . Searching for a solution. Sucks. Back to alt tab for the time being. Anyway thanks for your widget, it is really cool.

    Sorry to hear :(
    Can you elaborate when the stutter appears/appeared?
    Is your system slowed down when only LNM+webserver is running (without Msfs)?

    over 2 years ago

    Thanks for the reply. Just as quickly as the stutter appeared for 2 days, today it has gone back to normal while running transmitter and your app concurrently. There are a number of comments out there about LNM stuttering. Come to think of it, I did remove the elevation profile, which was one of the suggested fixes. Glad I didn't get too deep in the woods troubleshooting. We'll see how long it lasts. :)

    I was doing this moment.. the result is the same.. Flow Pro sees the program itself in any variant.. but there are no widgets for it..

    Are other community Flow Pro widgets are working?
    A bit out of ideas what is going wrong.
    Maybe you can also try to get more help on the P42 Discord server linked in the description.

    Yes, I use the program "MSFS Addons Linker". Other plugins (add-ons) including Flow Pro work and they are also installed through the program "MSFS Addons Linker"

    Ok, can you try to put it directly into the community folder?
    I don't know if Addon linker and Flow Pro community widgets work together very well.

    Here I enter a widget in the search.. and it's not there.. see the screenshot http://dl3.joxi.net/drive/2023/09/03/0028/3026/1842130/30/c863e226d5.jpg

    Do you have already other addons installed for Msfs and they work?
    For me your path to the community folder seems odd.

    As far as I know it should be in either
    C:\Users\[Your User Name]\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\

    or for the Steam install:
    C:\Users\[Your User Name]\AppData\Local\Packages\Microsoft.FlightDashboard_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalCache\Packages\

    Or are you using the "Addon Linker" program?

    over 2 years ago

    I have it like this.. I tried to put it as indicated in the Readme in the directory C:\Users \\AppData\Microsoft Flight Simulator\Community didn't work that way for me.. Just like that, see the screenshot http://dl4.joxi.net/drive/2023/09/03/0028/3026/1842130/30/c1f3035aeb.jpg (Flow Pro itself works, but for some reason there are no widgets, I don't see them at all in the Flow Pro Wheels panel settings)

    Good afternoon! For some reason, this plugin does not appear in the Flow Pro settings.. I threw it into the community folder and it didn't help.. neither by search nor so finds this plugin..

    Good afternoon!
    Can you check that the unzipping did not create a nested folder?
    It should be ".../community/lnmwidget.../layout.json"

    When my friend tries the widget he just gets a transparent frame with no map (LNM is running). It works great for me. The only difference between our systems is that his MSFS is the Steam version and mine is Microsoft Store version.

    Hi markko52,
    it is transparent when the webserver (inside of LNM) is not running.
    Can you check that the LNM Webserver option is checked at Menu->Tools->Run Webserver

    almost 2 years ago

    I have this too. I removed the directory from the Community folder but the on-screen frame is staying

    Came here searching for an answer about this just to find out I was not the only one with this issue. Now it's OK! Thanks!
