Missing GTNXi Services Plugin and XPlane Plugin - dl3 - 12-19-2025
I have used the TDS Manager to install all components and get a success pop up, but do not find the GTNXi Services Plugin and XPlane Plugin.
The manual says it should be installed in C:\ProgramData\TDS\GTNXi\XPlane12, but I do not see a "C:\ProgramData" directory, much less the rest of it. (View set to see hidden files/folders)
Running Edition Windows 11 Home
Version 24H2
Installed on 2/18/2025
OS build 26100.7462
Experience Windows Feature Experience Pack 1000.26100.275.0
Standby on this, I have found the folder, I will try to work through.
When I run X-Plane 12 I do not see the plugin.

Hello,
Why are you trying to find the GTNXi services plugin? That is different than the TDS GTNXi Plug-in for XPlane, in case you want to copy it to a secondary X-Plane install.
The services plugin is the same and is only installed/used once. For the TDS GTNXi Plugin for XPlane, you will find it in the first XPlane 12 folder/resources/plugins.
In case your ProgramData folder is in a different location, you can access it by accessing the Run (Win Key+R), then %programdata%
If you have an issue or question, please let us know of the actual issue or what you are trying to do.
Best regards.

Thanks for the reply. I have worked through my issues. For some reason I also had a copy of x-Plane 12 on a G:\ drive, and the plugin folder was installed there. When I copied it over to the c:\drive location, it now works in Citation 525.
Is there a way to use the750's VNAV capability in the Citation? (There is not an autopilot function for VNAV.)
Thanks!

Thank you for letting us know.
At this stage, VNAV in the TDS GTNXi is only advisory and it is not autopilot coupled. We may look into this int he future, but no promises can be made if it is can be accomplished.
