XPlane altitude always 0

If ACARS is not reading correctly the altitude of the aircraft and is always displaying 0 as a value, open XPUIPCOffsets.cfg with a text editor (e.g. Notepad++) and add the following to the end of the file The altitude will be reported correctly now.
Code: Select all
Dataref PosElevation sim/flightmodel/position/elevation float
Offset 0x34B0 FLOAT64 3 rw $PosElevation
Dataref TotalFlightTimeSec sim/time/total_flight_time_sec float
Offset 0x04A8 FLOAT64 3 rw $TotalFlightTimeSec
