TNT is my favorite, beatifull 737-300F

It turns out it's only possible to really fix this issue on Windows; because Apple deprecated OpenGL in 2018, MacOS doesn't have the newer features needed to work around this problem. Laminar has agreed to add a new "dataref" in X-Plane so we can fail gracefully in this case (using MacOS with X-Plane 11.50, with HDR off and anti-aliasing on, while using solid or broken procedural overcast clouds.) As soon as that's released, we can release our fix.

Hello, This is the AoA indicator and if you are in 11.50bxx it doesn't work at the moment !

What an outstanding kit! The possibilities are endless. The extra interiors themselves are fantastic. Very well done.

I added a change to my IXEG 737-300. I purchased the 737 operations manuals for America West from Ebay and then replaces the manual in the cockpit with it. Hope that doesn't violate the license. I just wanted my manual there. https://i.imgur.com/816VnET.png[

We are looking into the engine cutoff bug at near-idle power when taxiing, there seems to be something in the physics model that needs a bit more tuning.

Try this. Made by the same person who coded the TBM. https://github.com/skiselkov/StopZoomingDammit

I'm not a pilot, just a newbie flight sim guy (since late May 2020) who really wants to fly the TorqueSim SR22 "by the book" as they say. So, I bought a digital version of the Cirrus Flight Operation Manual for the SR22! Here's a quote from the book about this issue: “During the first takeoff of the day in an SR22T or SR22TN, due to relatively low engine oil temperature and associated higher oil pressures, engine manifold pressure may exceed limits. This is acceptable, but if this occurs, pilots should smoothly reduce power to bring it back below red-line. In subsequent flights with higher engine oil temperatures, verify that the power lever can be moved to full forward and remain within limits. If not, then the system should be adjusted. ” Excerpt From Flight Operations Manual Cirrus Aircraft https://books.apple.com/us/book/flight-operations-manual/id1072487639 This material may be protected by copyright Maybe one of the SR22 pilots can comment further. I've been reducing power, typically all the way to manifold pressure of 29.5 (it still shows yellow at 29.6). I've not found a source yet that talks about how far to cut power back (just to yellow or all the way to green).

X-Plane 11.50 is required for the GCU panel to function, as it uses commands that were added only in that version.

I second that 100%! I'm still speechless about the accuracy of the flight model

I've been waiting on a paint kit! For those of you trying to find it: https://torquesim.com/sr22-liveries/index.html -> scroll to the bottom. And bonus points for an Affinity version!! Guess I'll be painting instead of flying tonight!

I also mentioned the screens in another post that in VR mode the display screens look like they have a thin layer of tracing paper over them (colors are washed out hard to read). Looks like something to do with the color gamma setting I think.

Hi Coop. Sorry, but this is in no way realistic. I took the plane up in a thunderstorm, under solid cumulus. No sun anywhere. I even flew a 360, with very little difference. Still had the low contrast poorly legible screens. Then, I put it on the runway at night. Still had gray backgrounds to the display, and it looked poor. I won't post any photos of the above, but I have been flying G1000 RW for years, and they don't look like that. Sure, at certain times, if the sun can get right on the screens, they are a bit harder to see well (occasionally very hard), but the Cirrus has a more pronounced roof than, say, a Diamond, and reasonable shading for the screens. They have super contrast now - better than the early versions. Most of the time, even in a very sunny environment, they are great. You can see this, without getting in a real plane. YouTube from Nico, and loads of others show pin sharp, high contrast screens with black backgrounds, even at high altitude, above the clouds with a load of sun. What owner would pay $3/4 million and upwards for poorly legible instruments? The FAA, CAA, EASA and all would never have passed what is pictured above as acceptable, and Garmin (and Avidyne, etc.) wouldn't have otherwise beaten the six-packs into submission I would prefer the displays in the sim to look great all the time, and accept the fact that it is a sim., and just forget that, on occasion, the sun can make the display a bit less than ideal....... I'd rather not be squinting at my monitor, and then just keep using the pop-ups anyway. You and others may disagree with me on the above. Fair enough I still think that this plane is sensational, and please don't you or Cameron think me rude!
