It will download as the latest version! The following is a list of additions/fixes included: What's New / Changed: Improvements / New Features: Got a modest framerate boost by avoiding an inefficient flight plan query every frame. Bug Fixes: Fixed a crash when using Vulkan on Windows with an Nvidia GPU Updated magnetic model to latest coefficients for the years 2020-2025. Updated RealSimGear config file we ship to the latest one and renamed it so it no longer overwrites an existing config file if you had it customized. Reduced AP panel knob sensitivity when spun in VR. Stiffened up pitch response to desensitize the pitch axis more on approach & in cruise. Reworked aileron trim model to be more linear with airspeed. Negative-G induced engine flameout was happening way too quickly. Limited the amount of pooled up fuel to prevent huge temp spikes during hot starts. As always, thanks for being a customer with X-Aviation. We appreciate your feedback and support! Enjoy these latest updates, and stay tuned to the forum as we continually announce the latest happenings. 8
Rhinozherous Posted April 2, 2020 Report Posted April 2, 2020 We have to uninstall it before updating, do we?
Goran_M Posted April 2, 2020 Report Posted April 2, 2020 The installer will uninstall the old version for you.

Fuchy Posted April 2, 2020 Report Posted April 2, 2020 thanks for the update!! Have seen some fps improvements
flieger28 Posted April 5, 2020 Report Posted April 5, 2020 I noticed that there is some kind of stuttering in 11.5 w Vulcan when i use the TBM with some airports. Funny think ist that stuttering ocurs even when the Frame rate ist high.
Goran_M Posted April 5, 2020 Report Posted April 5, 2020 We don't really do support for add ons in an X-Plane beta, but I can take a look at a log.txt and see if something sticks out.

Thanks that you will take a look. Attached the log.txt Also i made a short Video yesterday at the same Airport (SBSL) where you can see the stuttering. In other planes this stuttering is less or even not noticeable. Tried the FSDG Bremen Airport, which is much more demanding in terms of scenery. On that Airport the frames are somewhat lower put there is no stuttering. TBM at SBSL with stuttering Log.txt
Goran_M Posted April 5, 2020 Report Posted April 5, 2020 I can see a couple of things, but first, can you load up the sim, set it up at the airport that is giving you stutters, and then post a screenshot of your Graphics settings? I'll be able to narrow it down.
flieger28 Posted April 5, 2020 Report Posted April 5, 2020 Here is a screenshot I tried different settings but it was all more or less the same. I also tried with and without X-PLane AI Planes, no difference.
Goran_M Posted April 5, 2020 Report Posted April 5, 2020 If you really want to nail this down, I'd strongly suggest you remove all plugins (except Gizmo...if you want to keep trying the TBM) out of the plugins folder. Your 3rd party plugins could very well have unpredictable results on 11.50 at this time. You have plenty of VRAM, so I would say the stuttering is your CPU trying to perform all the calculations being asked of it by your plugins. Also, the TBM is not fully supported in 11.50, so it could be the TBM as well. Feel free to experiment, but have the expectation that things won't go smoothly with 3rd party add ons.
flieger28 Posted April 5, 2020 Report Posted April 5, 2020 I tried without any plugins, same problem. I guess i will do a complete fresh install of x-plane and install everything one by one and see if its better.
flieger28 Posted April 5, 2020 Report Posted April 5, 2020 I figured out that it seems to be in conjunction with the Antialiasing. If i turn it of or only on the first notch it is way better. If i getting higher than the first notch it is getting worse Also tried to reset the 3d settings in the Nvidia control panel.
BBJdriver Posted April 6, 2020 Report Posted April 6, 2020 Since I downloaded the new version, the pitch trim doesn't work any more. Can anybody help please?
Goran_M Posted April 6, 2020 Report Posted April 6, 2020 Are you sure you have AP Trim switch turned on?

Hi, nice work on the update, I had the same problem, using more than 2x SSAA + FXAA as antialiasing, get me a lot of stuttering, Using the default planes I can crank it up without problems. @Goran_M: your product and your support is top of the line! Am very pleased with the purchase, and almost only fly your plane on the sim. As a real world pilot, I apreciate the detail on the model.

Nevermind I found a post on x-plane.org reporting this also, seems like an XPlane issue https://forums.x-plane.org/index.php?/forums/topic/207528-anti-alaising-and-stuttering/
Pivot Posted April 7, 2020 Report Posted April 7, 2020 I just had a nice flight and everything seemed fine other than the AOA indexer doesn't reflect anymore. All from VR very nice & smooth, XP11.50 Vulkan and went through some rain near end of flight. Good work all.. FPS stayed 25-27 throughout Rift-S.

ArthurSG006 Posted April 8, 2020 Report Posted April 8, 2020 TBM 900 is really heavy on performance, like never before. X-Plane 11.41 - Same addons that i was using before and the performance is not cool... :(
Goran_M Posted April 9, 2020 Report Posted April 9, 2020 Without a log.txt, there's not much we can do to diagnose.
flexxAir Posted April 9, 2020 Report Posted April 9, 2020 (edited) Hi there, running 11.50b2 and had two times CTD when creating a flight with the TBM; starting with default C172 and then changing to TBM works so far - I didn't find anything in the log; I will try to re-create this and send you the log. One little thing with 11.50: the throttle lever overlay is flickering/flashing (as long as it is visible, it doesn't pop-up randomly or something similiar). PS: in general, FPS with the TBM under vulkan is "not impressive" compared to other a/c - but I guess some people stated this already. Edited April 9, 2020 by flexxAir
