Jack Skieczius Posted September 18, 2011 Report Posted September 18, 2011 Ah, the power of X-Plane and the talented artists it has attracted! Quote
Morten XPFW Posted September 19, 2011 Author Report Posted September 19, 2011 (edited) Thanks guy's Nice to see the Recall function works. (Not that I had any doubts mind )Yes, it works just like in real, we'll start showing more systems previews soon!M Edited September 19, 2011 by Morten XPFW Quote

davidngr Posted September 20, 2011 Report Posted September 20, 2011 Are flight instruments cleary visible? Or do you think that we will have pop-up screens like in the Crj200? 1 Quote
Litjan Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 Are flight instruments cleary visible? Or do you think that we will have pop-up screens like in the Crj200?I think the instruments are perfectly readable and good enough for accurate manual flying. It all depends on the view, of course. If you "sit" yourself by the cockpit door to view the whole cockpit, then no, they are not readable enough for accurate flying.If you use a sensible view with all of the necessary instruments and the whole window in view, then yes, they are very clear. It does depend on your resolutions setting, of course and the distance from the monitor you sit at and so on.We will likely provide pop-ups of some things that are hard to manipulate accurately while using TrackIR, for example. One would be the CDU for the FMC.Jan 1 Quote
davidngr Posted September 21, 2011 Report Posted September 21, 2011 Ok the only thing to do now is to be patient and wait for the release of this breathtaking aircraft (December 2011). I don't think I will handle it. The wait is killing me...... Quote
Litjan Posted October 5, 2011 Report Posted October 5, 2011 We will have something for you guys to scrutinize soon... First I have to cut that *?%*§% hedge in my garden, though...Jan Quote
Litjan Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 Ok, as hinted at in my earlier post, there is something for you to watch on our youtube channel. Here is the link: If you have any questions about what you see, fire away.Jan 3 Quote
davidngr Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 Amazing! Amazing! Please One more video one more video!! Quote
Simmo W Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 Amazing, all that time just on one small aspect.Thanks for sharing your progress! No questions from me, I'm a little stunned.. Quote
meshboy Posted October 6, 2011 Report Posted October 6, 2011 This is o cool, talk about system depth!Am i right about this?1 recirc fan - just a fan that helps move air through the plane for always get fresh air.2 isolation valve - just to block / open air from left to right o be able to change preassure on each side3 apu bleed - air from apu engine, needed to start engines with packs off.Then i honesly dont get it, what is 1,2 and L and R pack?Is the bottom 1 and 2 switch air from/to the engines?Is the pack some kind of pump that can be shut off or go on "high" mode?Anyway , looks like i need to study the fcom. Any chance for tutorial after release? Quote

Any chance for tutorial after release?You got it right.The recirculation fan takes air from the passenger cabin, filters it and then returns it into the air streaming back into the cabin from the airconditioning packs.The "packs" are air-cycle machines that take hot air from the engines or APU, compress that air - cool the compressed air and then expand it again to make it cool. Then they mix this cool air with the original hot air as desired to get the right temperature (the air-mix-valve does that).The switches on the bottom are controlling supply into the pneumatic system by left engine, APU and right engine.There will be a tutorial and also a short description of each system, enough to let you use it in an everday situation. To understand each system fully you will have to study the FCOM.Jan Quote

Morten XPFW Posted October 11, 2011 Author Report Posted October 11, 2011 There will be more system video's - in random order M Quote
Ben Russell Posted October 12, 2011 Report Posted October 12, 2011 Please note; In my experience it takes a lot of time and effort to put together a good video.Pre-planning and at least one practice "run-through" are required.Spending time budget making previews and screenshots only takes away from more productive parts of the process.Note: I am not a part of the IXEG team but I do support them in any way I can by providing insight into the SDK or expanding Gizmo as they need. 1 Quote
