I am very excited to hear how this issue is fixed I have the same issue with a number of airports where I have custom overlay scenery. I wonder if it is a naming convention thing and whenther you have to fool xp10 into loading the overlay first then the airport after. I used a convention of labeling the overlay scenery with a Z_******* and that seemed to work in XP9 but I wonder if that is the solution to this in the new platform. Will be looking with excitement to solving this problem unless I just did?!

The Columbia 400 is at x-aviation.com Graham..........I find it hugely enjoyable with a replica almost fully functioning Garmin 1000 but it is payware and worth every penny! Not sure if that helps or if you already knew that plane was out there......I fly it all the time and actually broadcast live flying it alot too! www.twitch.tv/philipwyatt is the link to my broadcast channel if you want to see past videos or watch live http://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=54&osCsid=bc54b779a93fd1e0cd9053fc6ae8b0fa is the link for the Corvalis TT or Cessna/columbia 400 as she is more commonly known

Wanted to report that this update fixes all my issues. I am able to capture loc/nav and fly correctly! thanks guys, your tireless support for this product is very much appreciated. Viva la CRJ! Cheers Phil

This seems very similar to my problems too, aside from that my autopilot will not engage the loc/nav to capture and I am also getting these -2120349045892 errors in terms of distances between points. I also find the crash to desktop with no error message or discernible log generated. I have returned to 1.3.2 for the time being... Phil

Well after much to-ing and fro-ing with this update I have decided to revert back to the previous version of the crj........without having to go into detail (which I really have no idea how to articulate) I am unable to make the update capture the loc/nav at all. I have uninstalled the plane 5 times and reinstalled.....removed the folder from my aircraft folder and reinstalled....left the navigraph out put my new navigraph in....etc etc. The plane loads fine and i adore the new fms changes but when I put in flight plans the distances between airports looks like this -210029384582 miles ....which is weird! The fms will then not engage whether i am on nav1 (set to manual or auto) or the fms, even when I take a waypoint and click direct to. Ok now im rambling......and noone is understanding what I am going on about I would have thought.........I also have crashes to desktop when using the fms in different ways ( hitting direct to, changing ils runways and approaches......I am sure it probably a plugin I already have in there but as soon as I reinstall Version 1.3.2. everything works like a charm again. Just to make you aware of this issue, its no biggie but I will have to shelf the updated version until I am able to figure it out or see a fix to this problem. I have no idea why it wont follow the waypoints but it is almost like the plane is not responding to the flight director in fms or nav 1 mode.....it will climb and descend on the autopilot and follow the heading bug no problem so that suggests the autopilot is working ok?????. Anyway off I go rambling again.....anyone with a solution please let me know or any suggestions other than the outstanding help already suggested by Cameron in the chat room last night then please let me know.......i hate to be a bother, but it bothers me no to be able to fly her! cheers, Phil

Hope this is the right place to post this but I am having an issue with the crj that I cannot fathom........the loc/nav for fms or nav 1 and nav 2 inputs will not capture at all and it seems like it will just not track the flight plan I inputted the purple guidance cross . I am also getting strange crashes to desktop while using the fms. Any assistance would be great and much appreciated as I did a flight last night from las to lax and had to fly the whole this using the heading bug

Most outstanding update from the sounds of things....Cant wait to try it tonight when i get home! Thanks to Javier et all for this update! "Listen, and you listen close: flying a plane is no different than riding a bicycle, just a lot harder to put baseball cards in the spokes."

just bought fswidgets gmap for android.....wicked! worth the 14 bucks for sure!

Hi guys and gals, I use an app called Skycharts.....(www.skycharts.net) pretty successfully for a while now...it communicates with x-plane well mooves smoothly and you can switch the overlay from different maps (ifr, vfr etc etc) As far as I am aware it just covers the USA and Canada but I think it is still fairly inexpensive compared to the competition. I use it for flying VFR and GA and find it invaluable as a resource. I hope people find that helpful. It also will map your flight plans too with airways and it gives you sids and stars of all airports too. Enjoy Best, Phil

Thanks so much for the reply ok hope this attaches correctly!

My Setup finally got a chance to take a photo....gonna add another throttle quad in for the heavies! Edit I am having a hard time attaching a jpeg....any suggestions on how I do it?

What an excellent and thoroughly helpful comment this one is. The fact that you even took time to spend writing it has me scratching my head. Was it really worth the effort to try and make someone feel bad? I just dont understand I guess

I had this very same problem...it was bothering me........ then a little birdy told me to draw volumetric fog!!!! Now it looks awesome! Hope that fixes your problem too!

Not the first time I have ever said this but......... That is a great looking beaver you have there I cant wait to play with it!

Best Phil

Thanks Tom, Any ideas on getting the sudden stop and error messages in the sim even when I have turned off the warn me of incomplete scenery loads? I know that I am not alone on this and friends on other platforms are experiencing this too Many thanks Phil Sent from my Xoom using Tapatalk

A quick point that I am noticing with pop up incomplete scenery errors with x-plane 10......My log.txt says nothing about errors but the sim will stop and the screen will report of an incomplete scenery and to look at the log.txt for more info.......now even if I turn off the alert in the menu it still does it and I think this might be a bug.....I am also getting alot of errors from inside x-plane 10 from aircraft textures from the standard default aircraft....the b744 for example kicks up a load of texture errors Failed to find resource 'Panel.png' (parent = 'Aircraft/Heavy Metal/B747-400 United/' at 'Aircraft/Heavy Metal/B747-400 United/Panel.dds' Failed to find resource 'Panel.png' (parent = 'Aircraft/Heavy Metal/B747-400 United/' at 'Aircraft/Heavy Metal/B747-400 United/Panel.png' Failed to find resource 'Panel.png' (parent = 'Aircraft/Heavy Metal/B747-400 United/' at 'Aircraft/Heavy Metal/B747-400 United/Panel.bmp' Failed to find resource 'Panel.png' (parent = 'Aircraft/Heavy Metal/B747-400 United/' at 'Aircraft/Heavy Metal/B747-400 United/Panel.dds' Failed to find resource 'Panel.png' (parent = 'Aircraft/Heavy Metal/B747-400 United/' at 'Aircraft/Heavy Metal/B747-400 United/Panel.png' Failed to find resource 'Panel.png' (parent = 'Aircraft/Heavy Metal/B747-400 United/' at 'Aircraft/Heavy Metal/B747-400 United/Panel.bmp' Starting scenery shift at 0 and open scenery x does lots too......does anyone else have these same issues.... "WARNING: object Custom Scenery/OpenSceneryX/objects/buildings/industrial/power_stations/1/object.obj has normals of the wrong length." I am fully up to date on everything as far as I know and I am finding it hard to get into any flight with these scenery warnings pausing the sim every so often.......help much appreciated as always..........I wonder if anyone else is noticing these warnings and whether they have been able to turn them off? Phil

all sorted thanks guys! It appeared today now to updating my planes to latest format! tonight will be my first flight since installing XP10 I have it runningat 30-50 frames and I am so thrilled at the look and feel of the sim! Excited to fire engines tonight!

I knew it waasnt just me going mad....thanks Amerrir I will wait for the next update lol

Just did an update to the latest version of xp10 and I no longer see plane maker available in my xplane 10 folder....was it removed for this update? Cheers Phil

Hello all, I wanted to share some experiences with X-plane 10 Scenery so far in terms of transferring my existing V9 Custom scenery over. I do this because I am sure that my attention to detail and organization has given me one of the most comprehensive scenery libraries in Version 9 history, and now it appears that I am unable to use it in Version 10. When I installed XP10 I thought that I would just drag and drop all my existing scenery over to the the new sim.....BIG mistake.....my log.txt file was stacked full of errors from normals of the wrong length.... errors in glyphs...... to missing controller frequencies(new to me!) and I was x-mapping out of memory...getting unexpected and unannounced crashes to desktop and all sorts of issues. A bit tedious as reloading the new sim takes a long time (5-8 mins) After playing around with trying to remove the airports that were giving errors in the log.txt file and then changing location in the sim I was horrified to see a whole new list of airports with errors in changing location and therefore loading the new airports in was unveiling new errors each time. I know that when i run the same custom scenery folder in version 9 I get a clean log.txt file except for one airport (LFPG) which is simply too good to remove so I put up with the errors. In a nutshell I have given up and removed all but a few airports from the new sim (some converted ones KLAX etc), hoping that although there are still errors, that there are few enough to at least get a flight together without a crash or too much memory leaking and x-mapping out of memory. I write purely to advise those who like me wanted to take the 35 gig of custom scenery i had in XP9 and run it all in XP10 to not do it, not yet anyway......there is something in XP10 that is not liking ALOT in my XP9 stuff and I guess I will now need to start waiting for updates in scenery from 9 to 10 before I start populating.......I know the questions and comments might start like....."did you make sure to put your object libraries in, update open scenryx etc and the answer is yet to all of that......I am hoping that someone might be able to get a comment in here to let me know if there is a batch converter or something to bring my V9 scenery up to date but for now I am heading back into flat airport territory untill I am able to figure this out SO please if you have a different experience in porting you V9 scenery across to V10 then please let me know, I spent the last 4 years collecting over 2000 or 34 gig of custom airports city scenery etc and hate the thought of having to start again.... hope people find this helpful

holy god! my door bell just rang! Xplane 10 is here! and oon the same day as shipping i am sooooo excited

I have the exact same thing......the n1 climbs uncontrollably and then fires the engines! I am sure its a bug in the demo.....will work itself out i am sure when we get the full version.....

might want to see another one of your creations in action!!!! Trying out more options with the hdr running. Cheers, Phil

Glad you guys found this!! and yes the negative g fuel cutoff happened to me as I leveled off to aggressively I will post another video soon of it being handled (flown) better but for now this seemed to do the trick!.......looks great though guys and most definitely works well!!
