Dear Jan, you're very welcome, glad I've been helpful. Keep up your excellent work! Best regards, Toto

So Morten, I've disabled all plugins exept for the Gizmo64. Conditions were: - GW 58.000kg - ISA - wind calm - no Anti-Ice - CLB Rating - climb schedule 250/280/0.74 Climb rate: below 2.000ft/min after passing FL150 below 1.500ft/min after passing FL190 below 1.000ft/min after passing FL240 Would be glad if you could examine the issue. Best regards!

I've performed a number of trials again, and at least on Xplane 10 this seems to be an obvious bug. On the image shown below, distance to next WPT is 330NM, GS is 331kts, makes a total time of 60 Minutes. Present time was 11:32 as shown on the clock, so ETO over next WPT should be 12:32. Instead, 12:43 is displayed as ETO on the ND... ( +11 Minutes ). Especially on longer legs ( 300NM and more between two Fixes ), the observed calculated ETO for the next WPT differed by up to +25Minutes when starting the affected leg. As described before, the ETO is subsequently updated along the affected leg and becomes bit by bit more accurate when approaching the next active WPT. So probably this thread should be moved to the bug section. Best regards

Hello Morten, thank's for your reply. "You have off course checked you do not have any ekstra drag out, like accidentally extended the gear, flap or spoilers." You bet! I'll try to disable some plugins, although ( apart from Sky Maxx, RWC and better Pushback ) I do not have a namable number of plugins installed... Best regards

Hello. It seems that the ETO over next WPT on the upper right corner of the ND is not calculated correctly. E.g.: as on a flight today, distance to next WPT was 64NM with GS of 432. Makes a total time of 9 Minutes. The ETO shown on the ND was however 13 Minutes to go from actual time, so a gross error of +4 Minutes. On another leg, the Distance to the next WPT was 251NM at a GS of 431. Makes a total time 35 Minutes. When 251NM from next waypoint the ETO on the ND differed by +22 Minutes from the actual Legtime... Anyone else experiencing this? Edit: when approaching the next WPT, ETO on ND is subsequently updated and is finally down to the correct value when overfyling the WPT. Best regards

Hello. To me, the climb performance appears a bit implausible. Took off from EDDL to LGKR today under following conditions: - ISA conditions ( 15°C / Q1013 ) - zero wind ( ground & aloft ) - TOW 58039kg - CLB rating ( ca. 93% N1 ) - climb schedule 250/280/0.74 - no Anti Ice required - RFL 330 According to Simbrief, a total distance of 117NM was expected for the Climb to FL330. Actually it took 170NM ( 53NM more than predicted ). Vertical speed was less than 1000ft/min after passing FL240... With Mach0.74 vertical speed was 500ft/min after passing FL305. Average rate of climb from 150ft to FL330 was 1130ft/min. ( 29 Minutes ) This performance does’nt appear very convincing to me. Is this a problem with the XPlane 10 Flightmodel in general or with the IXEG internal modeling? Thanks and best regards EDIT: I‘ve got the impression, that other Add on Aircraft are facing the same problem, such as the FF A320. So probably an xPlane 10 inherent issue...?

You're welcome! Toto

Hello, I'm quite unfamiliar with the VR technology, but I'm curious and about to give it a try. As I have no clue nor any previous VR experience, I would be happy if you could help me out with some advise. My system: X-Plane 10 i7 4770k@4.4GHz geforce 980ti with 6GB VRAM 16GB RAM Windows 7 64bit Will that setup have the Potential to satisfactorily run the IXEG 737 in a complex VR environment? Is "Flyinside" required? How do you interact with the knobs and switches? Is there an option to just use the mouse coursor, or is additional equipment required? Is any other additional equipment required ( such as manipulators ( Oculus Touch ), USB3 hubs, etc. )? Which headset is recommended? Oculus Rift or Vive? I've read on Amazon that the Oculus Rift Software is not really taking care of data privacy. Is that software required to run the Headset on X-Plane 10, or is "Flyinside" the only software that is required? Would you say it's well worth the investment ( it's quite a hefty pricetag ), especially when flying the IXEG 737 in X-Plane 10, or is VR in X-Plane still on a somewhat Beta Level? Thanks in advance for your help, with best regards, Toto

I'm having the same issue when using Aerosofts ENBR scenery. Happens with other aircraft addons as well. Seems to be an issue with the scenery.

Could someone do Lufthansa Express from the early 90s? https://aviation.stackexchange.com/questions/1635/what-was-lufthansa-express Best regards, Toto

Same here. Cockpit looks by far not as good as in XP10. GTX980Ti

Hello, there's a greenish shimmer in the XP11 Cockpit even when the green eyebrow shades are removed. best regards

Hello, just noticed that the Engine Start Switches are without "Click"-Sound when being actuated in XP11. best regards

Thanks

Hello, is anyone else experiencing these ultra annoying microstutters in XP11? To me, they happen especially during rotation, flare and during turns. Happens even when using the default Cessna, however, with the ixeg 737 it's more prominent. Using XP11.02r2 on a i7 4770k, 16GB RAM, GTX980ti 6GB, SSD, WIN7 64bit. Happens even when in nvidia Controlpanel "Threaded Optimization" is set to "Off" and "V-Sync" to "half refresh rate". Using these settings in XP10 gives me ultra smooth performance, even with ixeg 737 and high complex weather and add-on scenery. best regards

Hello, just recognized in xPlane 11 that the plane is flying uncoordinated turns, no matter if flying manually or on Autopilot. It takes a while whilst in the turn until the turn is halfway coordinated ( although its still a slight skid ) Yaw Dampers are on. Even Rudder Stability Augmentation in xPlane 11 settings does not fix the issue No issues what so ever in the xPlane 10 version. best regards

Just wondering: since you've managed to simulate a classic 80's aircraft with mixed flight instruments ( electronic & analogue ) so well, I'm wondering if you ever thought of modelling the Airbus A310 / A300-600 in a future project? This Type as been overlooked completely in the flight simulation scene ( at least on a study sim level ), it is interestingly very complex on both System & Performance side and for sure it would be as much fun as your 737-300. So there might be a market for that Type... Best regards, Toto

Hello. very frequently I get the FMC-Message "unable CRZ ALT". This happens even at moderate TOW ( 45tons ) and Cost-Index ( between 20-50 ) on trips with a trip-length of around 500NM. According to FMC, a CRZ ALT of FL290 ( or higher ) for the above conditions is not possible, which I believe is not correct. Due to that, I'm having troubles to engage VNAV after T/O. So I'm using LVL/CHG instead. And this mode shows that ( performancewise ) a cruise level of FL390 is easily possible, with a cruise segment of around 300NM... Best regards, Toto

I think it was something about microstutters / framerate-hits.

Good morning. Just a short question: Whilst starting Xplane, I'm constantly asked to update my Xplane 10 ( 10.45 ) to the newest version ( 10.50 / 10.51? ). I think I remember a thread here, where numerous issues with the iXeg 737 where described after updating to 10.50, but cannot find it anymore. Is anyone having troubles with Xplane 10.50 / 10.51 in context with the 737? Best regards

Could you provide me with a link to the mod you've meant? Found several mods at google, all with different approaches. Thank you & best regards!

Hi there. I'm curious which yokes are used most commonly here? I for myself use the Saitek Proflight Yoke, however I'm not really satisfied, as the yoke is pretty unprecise and mechanically not the best choice. Regards, T

I've had these stutters too. I was using a GTX760 with 2GB, the stutters were extremely prominent and annoying. So I've upgraded to a GTX980 ( MSI ) with 4GB, which was a noticable improvement, however, stutters were still existant at complex Airports whilst operating in complex weather-situations ( Aerosoft EGLL and Skymaxx v3 plus RWC ). I've decided to return the GTX980 and upgraded to a GTX980ti with 6GB ( Manufacturer: Gigabyte ). This almost eliminated the stutters, they occur occasionally, however, these occurrences are rare and in most situations not a problem to me. However, I do observe that these stutters are evidently related to the IXEG 737, so I'm hoping that the team will find the cause for these hick-ups. Whilst the upgrade was a rather expensive solution, it did what it was supposed to do, so I stick to the 980ti now. I use "adaptive 1/2 refresh rate" and "Threaded Optimization OFF". These tweaks seem to be an absolute requirement. Best regards!

Moin. I find the toe brakes to be too sensitive when taxiing at low speeds ( 10kts or less ): when applying manual braking during roll out, everythings fine until slowing down to below 10kts, then suddenly the brakes become much more effective without changing the deflection of the toe brakes, leading to full braking action as if max manual braking were applied.
