To you, but not to thousands of others. It's not a beta. You're just making a life decision to be an ass in this given moment. Not one thing constructive in your post, so don't bother defending that angle. Remember this moment the next time you're called out and act clueless about your history of responses. In other news, I'm at a flight sim conference right now. I've been approached countless times by people this weekend with people raving about SkyMaxx Pro 3 and IXEG.

Hello Anyone tried this keyboard ? A bit expensive, $550 at amazon, but looking pretty awesome.

Known limitation, will be improved in the future. Also do make sure to avoid the PROG page as much as possible (like, entirely), it's still the most crash-prone page on the FMS… I believe PROG may be improved upon significantly in 1.0.6, but don't quote me on that.

Hello, My first flight with this aircraft, KOKC - KIAH, and I'm really stunned !!! Jawdropping, OMG how I love it... we've been waiting for this for a long time in XP. Thanks so much for the effort and the support. Now on the above topic, I also had VNAV that wouldn't engage because I only entered the arrival and approach later on in the flight. This is something I mostly do on longer flights since about 150 nm to TOD I check the weather and decide on the arrival. Kind regards STefaan - EBOS

Good to know - the ground spoiler shutoff valve is connected to the right strut, iirc, so touching down on the left wheels only will not cause the ground spoilers to deploy... Cheers, Jan

For Info in the "Real World" when a VOR is first installed, the VOR antenna is physically oriented to True North, this involved a TELS enginer climbing to the top of the mountain (or where ever the VOR was installed), with a set of screwdrivers and spanners/wrenches, then making a potentiometer adjustment to slave the navaid with Magnetic North. This setting is then recorded as "The Magnetic Declination of Record" or as it is sometimes called the “Station Declination” and the date this figure was set. Now over time the Local Magnetic Variation changes, and the VOR will no longer be alligned exactly with Local Magnetic North. Every so often the controling local Aviation Authority should re-align the VOR antennas to keep then within a few degrees of Local Magnetic North. But given the remote locations, and the fact that all charts & FMC databases would have to be updated as well, lots of VOR's do not get re-aligned as often as the should. The FAA and other Control Authorities continually have problems with "MagVar of Record" for VOR's and other navaids in the "real world". As example: Instrument Landing System (ILS) procedures at Anchorage and Fairbanks, Alaska. and The Review of Magnetic Variation Report. So it was a never ending job, trying to travel to every single VOR ground transmit antenna and "tweek the pot", given that some VOR's are in very remote or mountainous locations. The FAA has tried to keep most of it's VOR's in line, but there are many other VOR's around the world that have hardly ever been re-set more than a couple of times, so now lots of these VOR's are way out. This is one of the reasons Control Authorities are planning of switching off most ground based en-route navigation aids VOR/NDB/LM ect. and replace their function with satellite based fixes. Also Have a look at these old posts on the X-Plane Dev Blog: http://developer.x-plane.com/2015/06/x-plane-10-40-beta-3-is-out/#comment-11146 Note especially what Phillip has to say on the subject: X-Plane NavData records this "Site Declination of Record" in the earth_nav.dat file, Row 3 entry for VOR's as "Slaved variation for VOR". cessna729.

Hi Lawrence, I think this is an X-Plane limitation - we are mimicking X-Plane´s ADF functionality, and it does not allow selection of half kiloHertz values. This is akin to the problem of being unable to tune .025Mhz spacing on the com radios, but this has been adressed. Hopefully the .5 ADF thing will be, too. Thanks for the report, Jan

Oh boy, long time, again. LONG POST! SORRY! Been busy with school stuff and some modding. I jumped over to Modo last summer and set a goal to push myself to learn modeling with it. I also made it into a mod for Train Fever. I attended a game design class the following August, and have just delivered the finals last friday. During the year we've had a couple asset related tasks, such as "make a viking weapon" or "create a modular environment kit". During the holidays I started making this diesel locomotive. It's also made into a mod for Train Fever. Just before Easter I got hired to do a landscape for a game And from just about the same period, from Easter to now, I've been working on a team with two others to make a game for the finals. I didn't get to make too many assets, as I was chosen to do more managing sorts of things, writing scripts, handling contact with external sound designers, composers and animators. I did however get time to texture a couple of the models one of the guys did And at the very last moment they needed a new asset to fill a blank hole, and I modeled/textured a door to cover the hole.

yeah we want to do the same, but don't you see eachothers planes inside one another, if you do it like that?

Erm thanks.... 4.5 (1/2) hours is maximum so from Manchester to Tenerife etc.

@crisk73 I couldn't agree more. The cool thing about flying with another pilot, besides the element of task management being added, and having someone to talk through procedures with (as opposed to trying to force yourself to just talk out loud to yourself) is that after a short while you no longer see the cockpit as something you are just simulating. Because it is shared, it is real, and you feel you are flying in someone else's plane. In the very beginning it felt a bit like there was a ghost onboard flipping switches for me, but very quickly I felt like I was in a plane I had stepped aboard and I was lending a hand to get it from point A to point B safely and efficiently! Very cool indeed.

Right coiche...buy a 500€ piece of hardware to run a 30€ piece of software that promised to run even on low spec machines from the beginning. Nice idea! The fault is not your PC, but SMP that is still a "beta" from years now!!! And it promises results that are only achievable on non-existent machines! And now we have to wait for SMP 4...
