MSFS2020 traffic using Avare and Real Traffic

[David Durst]

Since I've been not able to fly IRL any longer I've moved over to Sim flying which I've of course been doing for years. Currently using Xplane11 and MSFS2020 to keep me flying in the aircraft I used to fly.

Using Avare and Xplane11 I've been able to get normal GPS as well as all ADS-B traffic using realtraffic for xplane and they all tie in perfectly!

Using Avare and MSFS2020 I can get GPS updates no problem, using realtraffic and xmapsy as the traffic interface I can get some traffic but only a few planes, unlike using XP and realtraffic where if there is 50 ADS-B traffic I get all of them on the Avare screen

I've reached out to realtraffic, and they were very open to working with Avare to get realtraffic to work from their program directly into Avare so that I can get the same traffic seen on the screen as XP and realtraffic shows.

I'm not sure who wants to contact who first or if there is any interest in making this work at all from Avare side of things, but I'm sure that many of us Sim pilots other than me would love to see MSFS2020 traffic injected into Avare while flying.

Thoughts?

Thanks, David

I'm just catching up on email, so maybe you've already solved the issue.

I've been wanting to get back to sim flying for a couple of years now,
but too busy with retirement and flying an AA5B. So my uninformed
comment is that you might try https://global.adsbexchange.com

I use it for watching wildfires during the SW fire season (now June thru
May), and sometimes during pre-flight. The default view is horrible on
my computer, but I click the Gear icon upper-right and unclick Dim Map &
WebGL at the bottom of the pop-up box. Then click the X top-right in
that box, zoom out, and enter my airport (KSBA) in the "Jump to
Airport..." box in the right column. If you register maybe these are all
defaults you can set.

Issue is resolved at this time. I have full MSFS2020 ADS-B traffic not only in the Simulator but as well showing in Avare on my tablet while flying. The same of course for Xplane11, full ADS-B traffic in the sim and Avare while flying

For XPlane11 I'm using RealTraffic to capture ADS-B traffic and importing to XP11 with Live Traffic. XP11 is setup in the network area with the checkbox for Xavion checked and this exports the ADS-B traffic to Avare via Wifi

For MSFS2020, using RealTraffic again to capture ADS-B traffic and then importing to MSFS2020 with PSXSeecon Traffic and using Xmapsy this exports GPS and ADS-B traffic to Avare using Wifi
