HarryCYUL Posted May 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Changelog:Extended Pack only:-added 777-200ER variant with Pratt&Whitney PW4090 engine option. This variant comes as a different aircraft with lots of new liveries. The new aircraft variant has distinct characteristics of:--wing without the raked wingtips--performance and fuel consumption--sound set--EEC with EPR as primary control parameter--EICAS differences for EPR-controlled engines--FMC performance parameters-fixed tutorial quick zoom functions for the 300ER model-new standby instruments: the -200LR, -LRF and -300ER now have an ISFD as standby instrument, the -200ER has three classic standby instruments-corrected reflection and windows on the -300ER model All models (on X-Plane 10 64bit):-new SASL version to fix several crash and DRM problems-fixed right engine anti-ice-brought back the flap speed placard-corrected pushback truck logic-corrected the compact fuel indicator and its display logic-fixed fuel jettison logic-several fixes for the flightcontrol page of the EICAS-improved autobrake behavior-added autobrake disarm on speedbrake retraction-added pdf 2 png HD application, for those who have memory and want more resolution for the maps on the EFB-fixed a possible crash in the pax/cargo loading menu-fixed a bug where an invisible "blue freeze" screen could cause the mouse pointer to no work anymore-fixed the plane refueling itself after reposition through the XP map view-implemented fuel temperature indication-fixed a bug in direct-to logic where two subsequent directs would delete a wrong waypoint-fixed reading Fix-to-DME-distance legs from Navigraph navdata (again!)-fixed enumeration of SID transitions, now all available transitions are selectable-reworked autoflight behavior with direct-intercept function. Now the autopilot will revert to LNAV arm when the plane is laterally off a manually selected intercept by more than 2.5nm. Intercepting a manually selected course must now be flown in HDG mode until LNAV engages. This is exactly how the real plane works.-improved depiction of manual intercept courses on the temporary flightplan-added intercept-from functionality to the FMS. Now you can create intercepts into radials going from arbitrary waypoints.-fixed a bug where several waypoint combinations in transitions would collapse into one waypoint-fixed a bug that could cause the plane fly parallel to the route after an intercept-added DEL key assignment for CDU popup-changed auto-thrust vs thrust-limit logic. It is now possible to manually increase takeoff power over the preset target when in A/T is in HOLD mode-changed EEC characteristic for N1/EPR and command arcs to work more realistically-improved interaction of A/T and EEC-improved finding of alternate airports-fixed a bug that could cause the FMC to not accept new airway entries-added the possibility to load flight plans in .flp format, which can be exported by flight planning tools like PFPX and also by online services like simbrief.com-corrected FMC and autopilot behavior in the approach phase of non-precision approaches-improved autoland capabilities. For all improvements to work, X-Plane 10.30 is required-fixed a bug that caused performance info on primary route to be deleted when secondary route was entered-fixed a bug in entering LAT/LON waypoints in full format-fixed a bug in the display of ETA on T/C and T/D pseudowaypoints-fixed a bug in VNAV where a lower speed for a speed restriction was activated too early-fixed a bug in VNAV where too high a speed was selected after a crossing restriction-improved holdings in cross wind situations-fixed several bugs related to flightplan saving and loading. Particularly, approaches with procedure turns and holdings in lieu of procedure turns will now also work when loaded from a saved flightplan-improved the calculation of turn radius in holdings. The predicted holding patterns will now match the real performance more closely-fixed a bug that could cause indefinitely small holdings to be generated-fixed LNAV ignoring the first waypoint of the flightplan if no departure runway was selected-improved generating fix-to-DME-distance legs from Aerosoft navdata-corrected autopilot bank limits in LNAV mode-improved prediction of the turn radius in LNAV mode, generating much smoother interceptions to next leg-fixed a bug in turn radius calculation that caused the aircraft to jiggle in procedure turns when flying very slow-greatly improved interception of legs at high speeds, i.e. large course changes in the cruise portion of the flightplan will be much smoother-added absolute altitude labels to TCAS display-corrected TCAS symbol colors and shapes as per TCAS 7.1 specification-added DMOD and ZTHR logic to displayed TCAS threats-changed TCAS implementation to work on different datarefs for online traffic from xsquawkbox and X-IVAP-improved FMC climb predictions especially for long climbs-fixed a bug in the autopilot that could cause it to stay in LNAV arm but never engage it even close to the calculated route-fixed a bug in the descend speed logic that would override descend speed transitions with higher restriction speeds from previous waypoints-working EXEC light on the remote CDU 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mik75 Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Very nice! But since I got banned from the store and the forum of the org, I guess there won't be any update for me.

HarryCYUL Posted May 5, 2014 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 (edited) Very nice! But since I got banned from the store and the forum of the org, I guess there won't be any update for me. I already contacted the developer as well, but unfortunately, I got no answer...the 757 was also updated version 1.1.2 Boeing 757 Ptofessional.This small free update for registered users has not really new exiting features, it’s mainly bg fixes. The change log covers:- Improved autoland for better flare and rollout.- Improved approach interception from certain transition types- Corrected active waypoint distance on legs page of F/O-side FMC- Eliminate ghost targets on TCAS that can appear when position of online aircraft are no longer updated.- Fixed a bug in entering LAT/LON waypoints in full format- Fixed a bug in entering LAT/LON initial position on POS INIT page- Improved position updating through radio navigation. Now also LOC and LOCDME signals are used for IRS position updates- Fixed a bug in VNAV where too high a speed was selected after a crossing restriction- Fixed a bug that caused performance info on primary route to be deleted when secondary route was entered- Fixed EEC allowing too high power settings in reverse, causing redline EGT when in full reverse- Corrected speedbrake retraction logic- Implemented fuel temperature calculation- Several improvements to the remote CDU, thanks to Bradley FishmanOne remark regarding the first item; note that for all improvements to work you absolutely need to make sure that the “shutdown tailwind ILS” option is checked in the X-Plane map screen. Note that you need X-Plane 10.30 for the “shutdown tailwind ILS” option to work reliably in gusting cross-winds.

I paid 145$ for the 757 and T7 and I won't get the updates and improvements for it because I said something negative about an addon I bought on the other store...

Nano Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 Downloaded and installed the new T7 folder. Only problem is now I'm missing the bottom 2 standby instruments. I kept the old folder and the instruments are there on the old one if I load it up. I have the basic 200LR version. Did I do something wrong during the installation? I simply changed the name of the 1.5 folder and dragged the new folder into the aircraft folder. Thanks, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jettojig Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 I believe they tweaked things so some standby instruments aren't included where they shouldn't have been, can't remember exactly though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nano Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 The standby altimeter and airspeed indicator are required. I can't see how they would have left them out. Also, the youtube video above shows them assuming that it is ver 1.6. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jettojig Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 They're in the -200ER but not the LR for certain. I've definitely seen it labelled as a 'feature' by philipp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nano Posted May 5, 2014 Report Share Posted May 5, 2014 I think you are right. The 3 standby instruments are combined into one on the -200LR. Problem solved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vinny003 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Hi, guys!I got the boeing 777 worldliner professional v1.6!! I think I should be able to fly from Hongkong to London, England going east!! Cheers, Vincent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vinny003 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Hi, guys!I got a question for you, I saw on the internet about the longest distance the boeing 777-200LR flew which is the addon I have, how did the pilots program the FMC from Hongkong to London, England eastward? I think the FMC program to the shortest distance like from Hongkong to London, England going west. Thanks! Cheers, Vincent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jettojig Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 Probably just worked out the right sequence of way-points for it themselves, I'm sure it wouldn't be too tricky! Might be hard to get flight simulation software to do it automatically but maybe if you set up two flight plans, combine them, and just overfly the 'middle' airport instead of landing.

Vinny003 Posted May 6, 2014 Report Share Posted May 6, 2014 (edited) Hi, Jiggyb2!Thanks for the info! What is the speed & altitude of the boeing 777-200LR flying from Hongkong to London, England going eastward, and what are the waypoints used to get the plane flying from Hongkong to London, England eastward? I would like to try out this flight!! Thanks! Cheers, Vincent Edited May 6, 2014 by Vinny003 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
