TorqueSim SR22 X-Plane 12 Issues

[jscott008]

Hi, thanks for the X-Plane 12 update!  As a GA pilot with a Cirrus, I really appreciated this sim (coupled with RealSimGear hardware) as it closely matches the real experience.  
But I did notice a few things listed below:

1) Problem with the engine sound. It mutes out (kinda) after engine startup. So all during flight you hear nothing but fuel pump, radio traffic, etc.. And when I turn up the volume and land you'll hear a very loud screeching as the wheels touch down. This occurs with both the turbo and non-turbo variants and seems unique to TorqueSim SR22 as it doesn't happen with other X-Plane 12 aircraft. I was able to get it to work (better) by replacing the SR22 FMOD folder in X-Plane 12 with the SR22 FMOD folder from X-Plane 11. I do get a few error messages about the some other sound features but nothing critical.

2) I noticed that the COM1/2 and MIC1/2 lights on the GMA350 do not light up when selected as they do when running in X-Plane 11.

3) Fuel levels:  Fuel at tabs should be 47 gals (23.5 each side) and 81 total (usable) when topped off.  

Please advise. Thanks for a great product!

Engine sounds are improved in the coming 2.0.1 update. 

Are the audio panel lights not working on the 3D cockpit and/or the RSG hardware?

"Engine sounds are improved in the coming 2.0.1 update." . . .  OK looking forward to that update.

"Are the audio panel lights not working on the 3D cockpit and/or the RSG hardware?"  Ans: The RSG hardware.   I have a feeling you are going to say speak to Nick or Dustin at RSG.  Right??

What about my question on the fuel level question?

And what is it now?

Assuming I understand your SR22 "Load Manager" box correctly....

Fill:Max- currently indicates 45gal (of 46) each side.  I'm assuming that means 45 usable fuel each side that results in a total of 90gal usable.   
It s/b- 40.5gal usable (of 42gal max each side) totaling 81gal (usable) or 84gal (total from both sides), 3 gal of which is unusable.  81gal is the number used for flight fuel planning purposes. 

Fill:Tabs- currently indicates 30gal each side- 60gal total. 
It s/b- 23.5 each side (usable)- 47gal total usable for flight planning purposes.

Also, I spoke with Nick at RSG and he fixed the problem found in the CommandMapping.ini. Audio panel lights now working (after I reminded him that the lights worked in the X-Plane 11 version of the RSG software.    You should expect to see those changes from him . . . and I'm going to charge him a consulting fee.    Just kidding.

Thanks!

I believe the difference here is the wing generation. The G3 had the "G5" wing for the latter part of the production which has the increased fuel capacity. We've modeled the newer wing.

Good point.  Got it thanks.   I'm flying (in real life) the older G2.
