AlesCCZ Posted October 23, 2017 Report Posted October 23, 2017 (edited) Hi folks, I found a screenshot from the IXEG 737 cockpit. There's amazing reflection on the displays. I've seen some older videos with cockpit reflections. My cockpit does not have it. Is this a bug in X-Plane 11? It's a minor problem, but I'm interested in it. The left side is my screenshot.

Cameron Posted October 23, 2017 Report Posted October 23, 2017 The sun and angle of the camera needs to be just right for you to see the effect. Quote
AlesCCZ Posted October 23, 2017 Author Report Posted October 23, 2017 I do not think so. In this video, CRT screens are glass. It's looking great. In XP11 is only flat and black. They look like a matt LCD. Quote
Litjan Posted October 23, 2017 Report Posted October 23, 2017 The reflection effect was left out of the last update by accident, sorry! It will be part of the next update. Jan 1 Quote
AlesCCZ Posted October 23, 2017 Author Report Posted October 23, 2017 No problem, thank you very much! Quote
stolowski Posted October 23, 2017 Report Posted October 23, 2017 The reflection effect was left out of the last update by accident, sorry! It will be part of the next update. Jan Is there any estimated date for the next update? I love this plane, but waiting impatiently for the next version! 1 Quote
Litjan Posted October 24, 2017 Report Posted October 24, 2017 Hi stolowski, I can´t really put out a solid forcast on the timing of the next update. At the least we will have to wait until 11.10 is declared final - there are some flight-model changes that we will need to adjust to, in particular the behaviour near the ground (wing downwash affecting the stabilizer). We will put in as many fixes as we can for this next incremental update, Tom has already fixed some lingering gizmo soft-crashes - and the reflections will be part of it, too. The stuff that everyone is waiting for - better VNAV, a 3D cabin, opening doors, etc. will not be part of this next incremental update, unfortunately. Cheers, Jan 2 Quote
stolowski Posted October 24, 2017 Report Posted October 24, 2017 Thanks for sheding some light on next update @Litjan, appreciate it. Too bad VNAV improvements will not be included though. In any case, I'm looking forward to it and hoping it won't take too long after 11.10. Cheers! 2 Quote
gonvise Posted November 13, 2017 Report Posted November 13, 2017 Is posible a hot fix for reflection displays? I bought recently and love these reflections in youtube videos... 1 Quote
Cameron Posted November 13, 2017 Report Posted November 13, 2017 Is posible a hot fix for reflection displays? I bought recently and love these reflections in youtube videos... The HotFix system is code only, not objects, so the quick and dirty answer is "no". Quote

Ok, thanks... and please, before next update, check everything well so you don't forget anything... Meanwhile, I'll keep flying ZIBO mod (best VNAV), and wondering why I spent 70$ but you are not able to quickly fix a bug like this. Thanks. 1 1 Quote

The oversight to include the reflections in the last update was really a mistake on our part and I believe we said that we are sorry - if not, well, we are sorry!. We can´t pump our updates out like the ZIBO mod can, because the overhead involved with every update is a lot bigger - and we want to incorporate as much as possible into these updates. We are currently waiting for the 11.10 run to finish - if we had released an update for the reflections only then people would have to wait a longer time for us to adapt to the other changes that 11.10 brings, like flight-model changes, for example. I don´t want to sound defensive and I think the ZIBO mod is a great addition to our hobby and X-Plane in general. I have nothing but respect for the work he does for free! - but it is a different thing to develop an airplane from scratch compared to taking an already working model and modding it. I haven´t flown the ZIBO mod myself, but I firmly believe that our model is closer to the real 737-300 than the ZIBO mod is to the real 737-800. I know there are different things that people look for when they buy an add-on, and if you are happy with good reflections in the cockpit and think that ZIBO´s VNAV works great (don´t forget that he has wing-flex!!) , then you probably could have stayed with that and not missed much. Sorry to be a disappointment, but thanks for supporting us, though! Cheers, Jan 9 Quote
AlesCCZ Posted November 15, 2017 Author Report Posted November 15, 2017 Zibo mod is great and it's hard work. But, updates are very common, as everyone is testing this plane. IXEG is a professional product and only releases stable and tested and tuned updates. Sometimes it becomes a mistake, but it happens, we are just humans. Looking forward to the next update, I hope it will be soon. Quote

Dear Gonvise: Maybe it is time for you to shut your computer down, go outside and get som fresh air a couple of hours... Before you come back online, please remember to take your "nice guy" shirt on :-) Cheers Syl20 Edited November 15, 2017 by Syl20 1 Quote

My children only leave me half an hour a day to "fly"!!! I searched in my closet, but the closest thing is a T-shirt that says "don't go where they don't call you" ;-) Maybe you should follow your own advice...

Cheers, Jan Thanks Jan, Great product, but with a price similar to the same xp11, I'd like to see updates more frequently... even more when a mistake is made.

Litjan Posted November 17, 2017 Report Posted November 17, 2017 Hi guys, lets not fight - thanks for defending us, Syl20, and gonvise, your concerns are duly noted! We are striving to put out 1.21 soon after 11.10 is finalized. Until then we try to get as much content and fixing into it as possible with the time available to the team-members in charge of their components. Cheers, Jan 4 Quote
