Network Server - Update

I have over 3400 blank photos now....not good!!

Is there a quick way I can get those photos back if I know what the REGes are?

Open Explorer, go to the Photo folder (located: \Radarbox\Data\Photo), change view into details. Then sort on the Size column, select all photos that are 1 KB, then delete them.

The correct photo will then populate the next time.

Thanks Niklas.....Already did all the steps you suggested before you replied.  Was planning to get the photos a bit faster than waiting for re-download from server.

Clicking the populate button will download quicker than waiting to pick up the aircraft the next time.

Just to say that the following problems would now appear to be rectified :

Proper thumbnails of aircraft and not blanks are being received.

The direct connection from clicking on the thumbnails to the planeplotters site is working. The actual aircraft picture may be different from the one being clicked but the aircraft shown is correct.

The direct connection to the forum via the forum tab is now working. (I haven't had that working for some time).

However, the quotes tab on the forum site is still not working.

Thanks for all the hard work in rectifying the problems.

a friend told me that airnav is not allowed to get pictures from planespotters any more.

Well they are certainly still coming from that source. Although they seem to be coming from Airliners also which will make some people happy

Hi Alan

Clicking the populate button never refreshes my photo's.  Is there another step that I'm not aware of maybe?

Also, why are some pictures coming from Airliners.net and some from Planespotters.net?  I would like all my pictures to download from Airliners.net.  Can I do this?

Paul,

As after pressing the populate button The information pop up states "X aircraft updated.  Once all pending photos/aircraft information ....etc.  I was under the impression photos of aircraft were downloaed in a similar manner to the other info.

I populated yesterday after carrying out a deletion of the blanks as per Niklas and I have photos downloaded with yesterdays date which I assumed came from the populate as I dont have have photos showing on my screen.

Regarding your other query I wouldnt think there would be a way of choosing where your photos come from.

Hi Alan

I also deleted all my 1 kb photo blanks and yes they do populate properly now when the aircraft is contacted again so that is fixed.  I emptied all my photos hoping they would now start to populate from Airliners.net and some do but some still come from Planespotters.net.  As for the populate and waiting for a refresh well that has never worked.  Maybe someday.  Oh how I have patiently waited for an update all these years....

Also just to clarify I love the photo's from Planespotters.net but most domestic and regional aircraft on this side of the pond are not available or are so outdated from them.  Airliners.net is much better for us over here.

The attachment problem should now be corrected
