Since the Invite-Only Beta release on April 1st, 2020, there have been many revisions to our software clients; here is a list of the most up-to-date versions: Current Client Software Versions.
If you haven't flown on POSCON in a while, it is likely that the software installed on your PC has been rendered obsolete. You can attempt to open the Launcher Client and let the software auto-update, but in some cases of extremely old versions, our auto-updater system will not install the software correctly and you will be unable connect to the network. If you are operating old software, we recommend you download the POSCON Software Removal Tool. This tool will remove all traces of POSCON software and allow you to start with a fresh Launcher Client install.
ONLY USE THE FOLLOWING MANUAL REMOVAL PROCEDURE IF THE SOFTWARE REMOVAL TOOL DOES NOT WORK!
This procedure is designed for those users who are still having errors after using the POSCON Software Removal Tool.
1. Remove the POSCON Launcher Client:
- In your Windows search bar, type "Add or remove programs" and then hit <ENTER> to access Apps & features section of Windows settings.
- Search for "POSCON" and locate "POSCON Launcher Beta" then click "Uninstall".
2. Remove all POSCON related AppData:
- In your Windows search bar, type "%AppData%" and then hit <ENTER> to access the AppData folders. By default, this brings you to AppData\Roaming.
- Search in AppData\Roaming and AppData\Local for any folders containing the name "POSCON" and remove them. In order to find AppData\Local, go one folder level back.
3. Remove the Pilot Client(s):
- For FSX/P3D users, typically this will be accomplished when you delete the folders from Step #2; however, if you installed the POSCON FSX/P3D Pilot Client to a different directory, you are going to need to locate that directory and delete it.
- For X-Plane users, locate your X-Plane root directory and navigate to Resources\plugins and delete the "POSCON" folder.
4. Clear browser cache and POSCON related cookies:
-
There is no need to delete all your cookies. You can if you want, but it's only required to delete all the "POSCON" ones only. This includes cookies from the POSCON HQ, SSO, Forums, etc.
- Chrome: https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/95647?co=GENIE.Platform%3DDesktop&hl=en
- Firefox: https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/clear-cookies-and-site-data-firefox
- Internet Explorer: please use a modern browser.
5. Remove POSCON related Windows credentials:
- In your Windows search bar, type "Credential Manager" and then hit <ENTER> to access the Windows Credential Manager.
- Click on the "Windows Credentials" tab.
- Expand "POSCONauth/launcher" and then click "Remove".
- Expand "POSCON/JWT" and then click "Remove".
6. Download and Install Latest Launcher Executable.
- The latest Launcher Client can be found on the POSCON HQ: https://hq.poscon.net/library

Still working on the MVPs in order to get to the stress test.
There is one major issue holding us back. We had a meeting last night and hopefully can have a solution in the coming days.

@Mark S. (1012362) That's not a position we are hiring for right now
-
A few individuals have expressed the desire for more flexibility in regards to setting nicknames/display names in HQ, Discord, Forums, etc.
Please take the following poll to express your desires.

Oshkosh is a great idea, but let me be the first to say.... don't expect perfect procedures like you would see at AirVenture.
I for one wouldn't know the first thing about how to control Oshkosh properly.

In the near future, we want to achieve 100 simultaneous connections to stress test our network infrastructure. We need ideas for what kind of an event we should hold to achieve this result. Please suggest locations to conduct the event at (regions/airports) and dates/times that fit your schedule. Please post your ideas in the comments below.
A couple of notes:
- Radar equipped ATC will likely not be available in time for the event; however, we do have the ability to simulate one or more "VFR Towers" that could provide local air traffic control services for the event.
- We ideally would like everyone to gather in the same "region". It doesn't necessarily need to be the same airport, although we can elect to do one airport if that is what people want.
- We would like to have the event in the next 2 weeks, so please suggest dates and times that fall within that criteria.
Thanks!

1. "Access your username and avatar" - We need username and avatar because the "userId" for Discord is received from that authorization. We store the Discord userId for linking your POSCON account.
2. "Know what servers you're in" - We need to know what servers you are in because we do a check on our side to see if you have joined the Public POSCON Discord server. If not, we tell the user to join that first. We don't need or care to store any information about the other Discord servers you are in.
3. "Join servers for you" - In future, once we have operational ATC/Pilot Divisions, we need to be able to manage your access to those POSCON Discord servers.
We have an extensive Privacy Policy that covers data protection. Feel free to glance through that and learn how we manage and protect your data.If you are still not satisfied, you obviously have the option to not authorize POSCON to connect with your Discord account as well.

Make sure there are models in your resources\plugins\POSCON\Models folder. If not, then find Models.zip and extract into this folder.
-
Depends on what your current expectations are.
-
Well I guess we are gonna have to have Sudan Division! Lol

Thanks! Will check it out.

Updated the job posting link - apparently the old one was not working.
-
We are likely moving away from OpenStreetMap due to limitations.
-
You aren't able to proceed past the checklist because you are not approved for Invite-Only Beta, so that is normal.
Try going to this link for discord registration: -
Its actually currently not validated by the server so you could put in any 4 letters
But it will be validated soon, so you might as well get used to putting in the right content.
-
Yes I received an email. We do not have a public API yet, so I am not sure how much of an integration we can do with them yet, but we'll see.
-
Are you able to get the developer to email me? I will DM you my email.
