fly.volanta app.

Hi all,
For those who like to "see" other gamers in the sky beside the flightgear community, there is a cross platform multiplayer map called "Volanta".
It works well with Flightgear, Xplane and MSFS. It integrates with Simbrief and can view for VATSim and IVAO towers. :D

I've done my first flight with Volanta on Vatsim a few days ago and I must say I really like it. It just integrates out of the box once you have installed the FG plugin within Volanta, no configuration needed FG-side. I was able to mass-import my previous flights (from my Excel logbook) into it, and now I have a worldmap with all my flights (over the last 10 years) on it. The coolest feature is the 3D-map, where you can actually see your altitude profile in 3D. Only now did I realise how gentle a climb/descent path is, even at a high vertical speed.

Here's the flight I did on Thursday: KLM44G

Is it possible to import data from FGtracker?

If you're able to download your data and put them in the right format in a csv file, then it should be possible.

(Any spreadsheet software like Excel or OO Calc is able to save as csv)

The plugin doesn't want to install for FG in Volanta. the status stays uninstalled. I have restarted both FG and Volanta. What can I do and where can I look for more answers
