Cameron Posted 2 hours ago Report Posted 2 hours ago Hello All, This will serve as an official announcement that we have released update version 1.9 for the CL650. All customers who have purchased the CL650 up till now have been sent an e-mail by X-Aviation with complete instructions on how to obtain your update. We have made this a very simple process! For those that purchase the CL650 from today forward, your purchased download will already be updated to version 1.9 for you. What if I didn't get the update e-mail? If you did not receive your update e-mail don't fret! X-Aviation has updated our system to allow all customers to update with ease, regardless of whether you received an e-mail for the update! Here's what to do: 1. Login to your X-Aviation account here: https://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/account_history.php 2. Find your original Challenger 650 download and re-download the file. It will download as the latest version! The following is a list of additions/fixes included: Release Highlights: Fixed various manipulators being reversed on the overhead Particle effect luminosity is incorrectly set in XP12 making them appear extremely bright Rewrote large portions of shared cockpit to allow for multi-crew, passengers, spectators and a much simpler setup process (documentation forthcoming) Engaging the yaw dampers requires holding the buttons down for a couple of seconds As we no longer utilize Gizmo, Mac ARM support is now complete and Mac users should stop running X-Plane through Rosetta if you don't have any other products which require Gizmo (the installer will point them out if you do).
