  1. I believe I have isolated where the stutters are coming from, I went through the whole process starting from cold and dark and got the IRS's aligned, route entered and checked, everything except starting the engines. At this point no pauses, as soon as I started the first engine the pauses began. This behavior is isolated to this addon specifically, and quite frankly I have to shelf it until the issue is addressed, which is a shame because this has been my favorite addon since the release.

  2. You are confusing MTBF and lifetime expectancy. The former is about random failures of a device while the latter is about how long a device is expected to last. Those two can be very different. For example given the 2003 "life table" for the US - a 30-year old has a ~0.1% chance to die in that year - this translates to a MTBF of roughly 1000 years, however even the best wear out long before that - their lifetime expectancy is a mere 49 years. So MTBF expresses really just a random chance to fail and thus does not require any life time tracking. If you were to implement some form of that (e.g tires lasting only X landings), then you'd need indeed some form of air frame state save. In reality, you'd also hope that maintenance is aware of the lifetime expectancy of the various devices and replaces them before that. So I don't think you would gain much by tracking stuff across flights, unless you want to implement some sort of maintenance simulation, i.e. replace engines after X hours (depending on usage), etc. along with the financial impact to enable some kind of "running an airline" experience. In this simulation MTBF is really just there to give you a better idea of what to expect, i.e. a MTBF of 20h would mean you should expect one failure in 20h of flight (or 5% per hour, or adhering to how it's programmed: 0.0139% per 10s ) regardless of how those 20h are composed. Since it IS random however, you might experience 20 faults in 10 hours or none in 100h. In reality the MTBFs are much higher of course and vary from system to system as well, while here it's all combined into one.

  3. Your team does great work. I have the IXEG 737-300 classic and the BAe Jetstream 32 and they are both great aircraft, awesome modelling and Oh so realistic. Can't wait for the V2 of the SAAB 340A as I am fully into XP11 now and just can't bring myself to go back to XP10. Realise you will bring an update out for it to work in XP11 but will wait for version 2 so I can enjoy it in XP11 and in all it's glory. Thanks for all your hard work and commitment to releasing awesome products.

  4. Aircraft failures on x-plane were enabled. I turned it off. Thank you!

  5. I would welcome an implementation - xEnviro is a nice tool and its sad to see, that you dont have rain effects on the windshild most of the time when flying throught xenviro generated rainy clouds.. and of course the WR... time will see.

  6. There is no such policy, if there is a problem on our end and there is a simple cure, we will ofcourse implement it.

  7. Did not want to start another thread. I use FS Global Weather, and I can't get same cloud coverage with Sky Max Pro 4.5 as in XP weather. In hio altitude I only get broken clouds in close area around the airplane for example. Anybody have hint/tips for a working setup that look a bit more real then broken clouds around you.
