DesignXPlaneObjects Manual
By tesal
This manual is intended for newbies and summarizes my learning experience to develop aircraft models for X-Plane
The manual covers the following items:
1. Getting and processing the Blueprints
2. Preparing the master images to be used in the Texture Map
3. Notes on developing an aircraft model using Plane-Maker
4. Using AC3D to develop the aircraft X-Plane objects
5. Using the AC3D texture Coordinator
6. Animations
7. Tuning the AC3D model to the Plane Maker model
8. Exporting the AC3D files as X-Plane objects
9. 3D cockpits basic designYou may use this manual and included attachments freely and without any type of restriction

Paintkit with layered PSD files for the McPhatstudios ATR 72-500
Layered Paintkit for McPhatstudios ATR72-500 by Leen de Jager
By Leen "Flybike" de Jager.( based on edited and composed blanks made from the original McPhattextures )
This paintkit includes a set of "neutral-normal-files".
Make sure to place these normal-files in the objects -folder of your livery.
These normal-files have an edited normal and /or specular layer.
Their individual file-weight is much lower than the original ones , approx 7Mb instead of 16Mb
Using these normals prevents the default normal-files from making the default texture
visible on your paint when sunlight is striking the texture .
These customised normals (V2) replace the set I made and published earlier.
This paintkit is free ( for non-commercial use ONLY).
When publishing a repaint based on this paintkit, credits :
Paint made using ATR paintkit by Leen "Flybike" de Jager
Unzip LDJ-Paint-kit ATR72-500-V2.zip to a temp folder.
Have fun

iGoDispatch JRollon CRJ-200
By iGoApp
Flight planning tool for JRollon CRJ-200. It calculates weights, fuel, reference speeds, balance, pitch trim, and many other values that you need for your flight.
It is Windows only for the time being. It should be available on other platforms later.
Have a safe flight!
Please vote if you liked the application.

Real Terra Haze
By SPAS
Current version is 2.11
This is an add-on script for FlyWithLua based on the findings of user PASCAL_LSGC over at AVSIM about the raleigh scattering controls.
It implements these controls so they are automatically tuned based on the sun elevation (the light veers towards reddish tones when the sun is low on the horizon) and plane altittude (gains go up as you go up).
Requires FlyWithLua!!!
Get it here
please take time to read this from Ben Supnik
The art controls are not a public interface to make X-Plane add-ons. They are an internal development tool. They are unsupported, undocumented, unsafe, and most importantly subject to change with every patch of X-Plane. If you create an add-on that requires reading or writing the art controls, you can expect that your add-on will stop working when X-Plane is updated. When your add-on breaks, please do not complain or file a bug.
Just slap the scripts in your ../resources/plugins/FlyWithLua/scripts folder.
Please read the readme.
If you have installed Sky Maxx Pro, the shadows of the clouds will not be displayed.
Script by SPAS (leave him a PM on the forum if you want)
Thanks to MAT18590 for all the support and inspiration (and for setting the RGB and raleigh values straight)
content kindly provided by x-pilot users Tom Knudsen and slai have been used in the scripts.
Hope you enjoy it.
see a couple of videos from the user Emer1976

PS the scripts are free and free to redistribute or modify. If you do modify them for the better it would be nice to get that feedback.

iGoConnect
By iGoApp
iGoConnect is an X-Plane plugin that connects X-Plane to iGoDispatch – an application (Windows, Mac, iOS, and Android) developed for LES Saab-340A, JRollon's CRJ-200, and IXEG's Boeing-733.
The plugin performs the following functions:
Identifies airports, waypoints, airways and navaids included in the flight plan and sends to the client navdata for each of these points. Navdata is selected from the following X-Plane files (apt.dat, earth_fix.dat, earth_awy.dat, and earth_nav.dat). Receives from the client loading information (i.e., Center of Gravity offset, payload weight, and fuel weight) and adjust the corresponding datarefs in X-Plane. Periodically parses to the client the following ACARS data: plane’s position (latitude and longitude); heading (true and magnetic); weight; available fuel; current fuel flow; ground speed; and altitude. In X-Plane 11, dynamically adjusts the plane's Center of Gravity during a flight resulting in greater flight realism. In X-Plane 12, this is implemented by the simulator. Monitors flight performance based on approximately 20 parameters, identifies potential issues during the flight, and sends the report to the client. IMPORTANT!
If you have MacOS Catalina (10.15) or higher, it is possible that after downloading and installing the plugin, you will not find it in the X-Plane's menu. This error is caused by the MacOS security protocols during the X-Plane start-up process that references a Mac.xpl file. If you do not see iGoConnect in the menu of the simulator, the following link explains how to solve the problem: https://x-plane.helpscoutdocs.com/article/26-mac-xpl-not-starting.
If you have problems connecting the iGoDispatch application to the computer with X-Plane running, it is most likely that your Firewall is blocking the TCP connection. You need to open the port to allow connection between your iPad and computer.
For Windows:
Go to Control Panel > Windows Firewall Click on "Advanced Settings" in the left-hand pane. Click on "Inbound Rules" and then "New rule". Select "Port", click next, select "TCP", and enter "7767" as the local port. Click next, and allow the connection. Click next again, and ensure that "Domain", "Private" and "Public" are all ticked. Name your firewall rule, e.g. "iGoConnect", and then save it. For Mac:
Go to System Preferences, and choose the Security and Privacy Tab. Click on the Firewall Tab, and the Firewall options button. The page will show you the applications that are allowed access through your firewall Add new applications to the list by clicking on the plus icon.
If you use third-party firewalls, they have their own procedures of adding Ports to TCP connections that may differ from those that I provide in my manual. You need to follow their specific instructions.
For example, if you have McAfee in Windows, follow these steps:
Open McAfee Total Protection; Open Web and Email Protection; Open Firewall; Open Ports and System Services; Click Add; System Service Name: iGoDispatch. Local TCP/IP Ports: 7767. Open ports to: All PCs. Forward port activity: checked. Click Save. The Manual is also available here: http://igoapp.ca/page_igoconnect/igoconnect_manual.html
The plugin supports Windows, Mac (OS X versions 10.7 or later), and Linux.
