lennard78 Posted December 29, 2022 Report Posted December 29, 2022 Hello, After running the G5 installer for the stock C172 in XP12, I see that the G5 text file is copied to the aircraft folder, but somehow it does not show the G5 in the sim (just keeps the old analogue instruments). Has anyone been able to make the G5 visible and work in XP12's 172? Best wishes Lennard Quote
Coop Posted December 29, 2022 Report Posted December 29, 2022 We bundle a modified C172 with the G5 installed as part of the main installer. In X-Plane, load the C172 from the aircraft menu that is labeled "G5" in the aircraft name. Quote

Thie G5 C172 folder indeed also works when placed in the XP12 aircraft folder, but then I have the XP11 C172 in XP12, and I noticed that it then comes without all the XP12 'goodies' such as visible rain on the windshield etc. Hence I was wondering whether you could add a C172 but then adapted to XP12? Or is there a way to install the G5 in the XP12 C172 myself (which did not work with the present original XP11 installer)? Quote

Please also look into the stutters the lower G5 unit is causing. When I turn it on, FPS drops and the stutters are significant. This is on a default XP11 installation, so hopefully the issue can be resolved with the new XP12 version. I reached out to realsimgear for support, but no response in over a week. My system is strong: 13900k, 4090, 32 GB. Everything else runs butter smooth, except when I turn on the lower G5 (HSI). Anyone else experience this? Thanks Quote

I've seen another post regarding the stutters as well, so I know it's not just me. I've tried re-installing a couple of times and always get the same stutters when the lower G5 is turned on. I don't know what else to try, so was hoping for others to test it and chime in with their experience. Is there any way to download the previous version to see if the stutters are there? Thank you Edited March 28, 2023 by RetiredBoom Quote

Thank you No, that version has been removed from production servers and blacklisted in the activation system many moons ago. 1 Quote
lennard78 Posted April 12, 2023 Author Report Posted April 12, 2023 Hi Cameron, Would there be any timeline for integrating the G5 in native XP12 (C172) at this time? Best wishes Lennard Quote
