List of bugs

[vuuoo]

Good evening

I have made this list of bugs over the last week, containing every single bug or possible bug I have found in v1.04. I have tried to make it as detailed as possible. I know some of them are very minor, but here we go anyways:

-----------1-----------

Engine display "needles" disappearing at night

I have found (and seen it on Youtube videos too) that the following "digital needles" of the engine display disappear at night time: Both EGT needles, and the first N2 needle as seen on the picture below. It looks like they aren't backlit since they slowly fade in again when the sun rises.

-----------2-----------

This bug has definitely been improved on since v1.0, but it is still noticable. When in cruise and editing the route in the FMC (going direct to a waypoint or selecting a star) the aircraft banks slightly in one direction and then returns on course.

-----------3-----------

I'm not sure wether or not this is a bug, but occasionally I've experienced that in flight the EGT drive oil temp and AC amps gauges of generator 1 will move up and down every 3rd second or so. I don't know if this has been fixed in the 1.04 version but I thought I'd include it anyways.

-----------4-----------

In the light test mode, I can cancel the master caution light, but not the fire warning light - again, this might be intentional.

-----------5-----------

Setting the air conditioning airflow volume in the preferences to 0% and then exiting will reset it back to 100%.

-----------6-----------

On the approach ref page, selecting a flaps setting for landing and then pressing the FLAP/SPEED button twice will set it to flaps 40 regardless of the current value.

-----------7-----------

The auto throttle arm switch won't move in cold and dark, although you can hear the sound.

-----------8-----------

The engine fire bell will sound in cold and dark when holding the test button.

-----------9-----------

I don't know if anyone else has had this, but at EGPH I find that when programming the FMC, just after finishing the PERF page and pressing EXEC (after already having typed in the flight plan except for SID and STAR), I constantly got a Gizmo soft crash. Even after having restarted Gizmo. I was planning to fly EGPH - EGKK on the following route: TLA UN864 DCS UL612 WOD. (this was in v1.04)

 

I am aware that some of these may be intentional, or already have been reported, but I hope this list could at least help a little bit .

For number 8, that' not a bug. That's what it is in the real plane.

EDIT: I just treid out your flight plane and I didn't get a gizmo crash

I did a night flight last night, and noticed that the F/D Master light (captain side) is not visible. It is ok during the day.

#1 is already known, and the F/O side knob for panel lighting also, it will be corrected in a future update as it is not possible to hot fix graphics 

#3 anti ice on ?, it may just be reflecting high current needs

Hi, and thanks for the list.

#1 known, #2 known, #3 you might be seeing the pulse-charging of the battery charger cycle, #4 intentional, #5 might be a bug, thanks!, #6 that is not quite working correctly yet and will be changed, #7 intentional, #8 intentional, #9 will try to recreate!

Thanks, Jan

It may help if you indicate which navdata provider you're using (default cycle that comes with the plane, a subscription from Aerosoft, or Navigraph) and which AIRAC cycle is installed.

It was the default AIRAC that came with the plane.

Oh, turns out I was wrong about the EGPH part. It does happen at all airports since the v1.04 update. Whenever I execute the PERF page after filling it out I get a Gizmo crash. I attached an image.

that one is fixed for the next hotfix.

Thanks!

Is there a temporary solution so I can still use it before the next patch comes out?

If the crash happens when you are entering "Takeoff"-page. The workaround is to the enter a departing runway before you are doing that. Either just the runway or the runway and the SID.

Thanks a lot! That seemed to do it!
