Cameron Posted June 17, 2013 Author Report Posted June 17, 2013 Any chance in a future for Linux plugin? It is currently on radar, though we have no dates as to when. There are many other factors at play for now!
BWolf7 Posted June 17, 2013 Report Posted June 17, 2013 (edited) Hmm, might just have to buy this one! Too bad I cant find any reviews on it Edit- Never mind, found one http://xsimreviews.com/2011/05/31/kickin-the-tires-with-kevin-the-cessna-corvalis-tt/ Edited June 17, 2013 by BWolf7
Cameron Posted June 17, 2013 Author Report Posted June 17, 2013 Edit- Never mind, found one http://xsimreviews.c...na-corvalis-tt/ I believe that review was made even before the newer map features came out. That said, there are actual customer reviews submitted by customers on the product page itself: http://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/cessna-corvalis-p-54.html#reviews
gthomas Posted June 17, 2013 Report Posted June 17, 2013 Here's the shortest review ever: This is the plane I fly 99% of the time. I hand fly it, it's smooth as silk. Real world Mooney 201/Tri-Pacer pilot(I don't care for the options in XP for either of these aircraft)--at one time 500 hrs a year The TT is only $25 do it
Tobes Posted June 17, 2013 Report Posted June 17, 2013 Fantastic news this! Thanks for updating it. Really looking forward to giving her a whirl :-) Any idea whether the DC -3 will become 64-bit compatible at some point in the near future?

Cameron Posted June 17, 2013 Author Report Posted June 17, 2013 Any idea whether the DC -3 will become 64-bit compatible at some point in the near future? This section of the forum really isn't the place for this, but the answer to your question is: when it's ready it'll be released.
Cameron Posted June 17, 2013 Author Report Posted June 17, 2013 I am having XP crash after the update installing for OSX xp10.21attached log and crash report You're running the beta version of Gizmo. Get rid of it.
scubajuan_new Posted June 17, 2013 Report Posted June 17, 2013 Works now. Thanks Glad to have my favourite GA aircrafts back in service. Thanks for the update. 1
birdy.dma Posted June 17, 2013 Report Posted June 17, 2013 Thanks for the update. First, i have deinstalled the 1.3 version using the unistaller of the main Xplane10 folder. Now, I have a Gizmo.plugin folder with 2 files: OpenAL32.dll and pthreadGC32.dll. And an other Gizmo64.plugin with 2 folders. I just enter in the cockpit of the CRJ200, Falco, and the Jetstream. Look like everything is right. But it is only a first glance. Do I miss something ? Claude.
AsH83 Posted June 17, 2013 Report Posted June 17, 2013 (edited) Great News,, I got the email last night but did not see any instructions, just what has changed (general changes, on the surface and under the hood) and the download link. but no instructions. Do i have to run the uninstaller for the old 1.3 version? do i have to remove anything manually before i run the new 1.5 installer. Thanks Edited June 17, 2013 by AsH83

No need to remove anything. The 1.5 installer will do it all for you.
Pivot Posted June 17, 2013 Report Posted June 17, 2013 I have a repeatable crash every time I try to adjust the course indicator when NAV2 is selected via the CDI. This happens regardless of other plugins loaded or not. Set a VOR station, switch CDI to NAV2 then use either PFD or MFD Course knobs and within seconds instant crash. Please see if this happens to anyone else. This was a complete fresh install of v1.5. All activations accepted and everything functioning. If you don't mess with the course indicators everything is fine, I can fly to anywhere. I hope this one can be figured out. "Log.txt attached" Pivot Log.txt

The terrain map will change color indicating the height of the terrain relative to the aircraft altitude. Edited June 18, 2013 by JGregory
