Hi There,
OK... done what you have recommended. Downloaded the v3.12.1.0 which is the upgrade from the recommended version during the original install.
Ran the GarminTrainerSetup_31210 - then Databases.Setup.msi as located in C:\Users\xxxx\Downloads\GarminTrainerSetup_31210\setup_resources\databases\3.5.0.0
Rebooted.
Opened X-Plane and TDS Plugin for the GTN750. Loaded but still no database found.
I see the DB in C:\ProgramData\TDS\Trainers\GarminTrainerSetup_31030\setup_resources\databases\3.5.0.0
Note: my X-Plane 12 runs on a separate disk, not C/:, usually apps ask where the XP12 is located. But, during the TDS install its didn't, BUT did load the Plugin correctly. My Reality plugin has been deleted as has the application.
Note: When running the Reality Garmin system.. the DB was in the Garmin folders in C:\Program Files (x86)\Garmin\Trainers and C:\ProgramData\Garmin\Trainers. I assume these are still needed?? Or not??
I've read the manual but can you confirm/clarify where the Databases should be located, please. 'Cos if the GTN cannot find them then its probably pointing to the wrong directory??
Attached is the XP12 LOG.TXT - This is my basic load to quicken load time so some item didn't load. However,
- there's is a lot of [TDS GTNXi Plugin for XPlane]: XPLMRemoveMenuItem was passed an out of range item index.
Also attached is the TDS.log. showing
[12/01/2026 11:03:54.668 0000285c DATABASE_ERROR] Unable to determine Orig DB
For reference, Legacy.VCSelection=1 since this is a non integrated aircraft should this be =0
Also attached is a .TXT version on the TDSGTN.INI file which I found in the forums to show the GTN pop out. Is this correct? I assume so...
I trust this gives you as much info to form a solution.....over to you...
Kind regards
Nik
