All Activity

I suppose I should demonstrate some form of life. I'll have to get with Jan on that as our radar (best I recall) had most of the features of the real thing. As far as "coming out soon", here's what I'll say....and this is overdue for sure....and I'm not going to convince anyone to believe me or not on the timing. It will get looked at and updated at some point. As sure as this is my 20th year actively involved in X-Plane work, it will continue to be so. A year and a half ago, things changed for me when Laminar announced its new store initiative in Montreal. I took a job with Laminar to completely rewrite its developer documentation. This was a "look to the future" for both myself and X-Plane. Laminar are looking to embrace a future generation of developers and we need to have better learning materials to engage this generation to develop for X-Plane, so I'm that guy....thats for Laminar. For myself, I needed more stability and a cushion, as the add-on market for X-Plane is still too thin to have any kind of long term security. Taking on this work with Laminar has allowed me to close out all other obligations and stay in the X-Plane ecosystem for the foreseeable future. The 'problem' for my customers and X-Aviation thus far, is that the initial phase or work to revamp and deploy the documentation was/is huge. New developer web site, new manual formats, a new, interactive PlaneMaker manual, lots and lots of rewriting, new illustrations...etc....and that has taken a good while to develop and received all my focus to get to what we call the "initial deployment" of the docs out the door. That initial deploy is not terribly far off. After the initial deployment, I will settle into a more regular time schedule that will afford me the time to get back to my own work. It has been my effort over the last year to try and achieve a point where I can only work on X-Plane endeavors between now and my retirment......and there have been personal hurdles along the way that are neither anyone's concern or business, but real to me just the same. It is my intention to crack open the MU2 and 737 again in early October, to resume work on my 'X-Aviation' things. I have discussed this with X-Aviation also. Between now and then I am focused on getting an initial deployment of the new docs out the door for Laminar. I want to remain developing for X-Plane fully and it is my firm belief that this path i've taken was the required path to do so, and I apologize for the silence and delays. -tkyler

Nothing will happen...

Thank you very much! That was exactly it. I had deactivated the x-aviation plugin in xOrginizer and simply forgotten to reactivate it. Since I had problems with the x-aviation aircraft even before the new beta, none were installed. Now the aircraft is working again!

This is a bug we have logged, should be addressed in the next update.

There are multiple cases that prevent the AP from engaging, make sure the roll knob is centered on the AP panel, as well as that the gyro is not in fast-erect mode. The cases are documented in the manual that prevent AP from being able to turn on.

It looks like the X-Aviation plugin isn't being found by X-Plane. Most likely a third-party antivirus software is quarantining it. Make sure to restore that plugin, and reinstall the aircraft if necessary.

Ah - yes you can't have both installed and have reliable actions from them.

Is it easy to use some set of instructions, perhaps the ones described in this link, to get some of the features of the new radar in the current state of the IXEG? Or, is it not worth the struggle because maybe an update from @tkyler coming out soon? https://developer.x-plane.com/article/weather-radar-for-x-plane-12-3-1/ Thank you.

The solution is for the Tobii plugin to stop controlling the camera while it’s functionality is paused in the sim. This is a software issue with their plugin, not the CL650, which they’ve ignored for several years despite being informed by other users.

Same here .. waiting for the M20R ..!! The old AFM M20 Ovation somewhat worked with x-plane 12.0.x/12.1.x but everything crashes after 20min with 12.3.0 ..

Hello, I have completely reinstalled and activated the machine. Unfortunately, it only works partially! I can move the switches, but the machine has no power and cannot be charged via the aircraft menu. The fuel selection is also faulty and always jumps back to the starting position! I don't know what to do. I am attaching the log.zxt file. Strangely enough, it's similar with the SR 22. But more on that in the relevant section of the forum. Log.txt

Will this issue ever get fixed?

They are already there, yes.

Nice job!

Because it has shrunk (and was publicly stated so quite a while ago).

Still things to come, and you're right, X-Plane 12 is looking great!

Maybe because the last update was 2 years ago?

Man, its a shame this project never materialized into what it was supposed to become. I used to love flying the ixeg in xp11 and had high hopes it would be completed. Every now and then I check back on this forum to see if anything has changed and unfortunately still nothing. Xp12 is looking seriously good these days, I just wish the ixeg 737 was up to par because it has huge potential.

Dear all, I just upgraded my PC with a Tobii Eyetracker 5 However, as long as the Tobii is active, I cannot walk aorund in the FBO or around the aircraft by using the WASD keys. They don't do anything. Up to now, the only solution I found was to deactive the Tobii Plugin as long as I want to use the WASD keys. Is there any other solution beside this? It's quite complicated to turn it on and off all the time using the plugin manager Thank you in advance for your help! BR Thomas

That looks very well flown!

Apparently, I have the same problem. The batteries and tanks are empty. In the interface guide, I can't fill the batteries or tanks. Ground equipment and settings work, though. And I have no idea what Rosetta is! However, I use Windows as my operating system.

Yes, this is what we have been waiting for. Expect nothing until sometime after 12.3 is final. The radar itself does not warrant the deployment of an update.

So then, what about the stuff here: https://www.x-plane.com/kb/x-plane-12-3-0-release-notes/ Does this have something you can work with for the CL650?

Quite some time ago, but tried it as shown in your video and good enough for me

Will the Laminar G1000 improvements in 12.3 appear in the SR22 G1000?
