SkyMaxx sets this to 1 for obvious reasons. What other scripts do is not something we plan to support, and we don't have immediate plans to intermix default clouds. Sorry! It primarily comes down to technicalities and the goal of the product line (RWC, clouds lighting up with landing lights, and smart performance techniques). None of these things intermix with default clouds appropriately.

From what I remember, @sundog actually has the ability and code to do this, but our hardware is simply incapable of handling such stuff just yet.

Windows probably installed at 125% though.

I don't think any...looks to be photos of his screen from a phone or camera.

Fixes UI bug in RWC configuration dialog Subtle improvements to cloud lighting As always, thanks for being a customer with X-Aviation. We appreciate your feedback and support! Enjoy these latest updates, and stay tuned to the forum as we continually announce the latest happenings.

Don't you have to have the steam version of X-Plane installed to even download these?

No, not at this time.

You need to actually unzip the contents of the zip before running the installer. Read above. Huh? A Gizmo Log is in your X-Plane folder.

Activation related issues are not handled on forums. Use the contact page at X-Aviation for assistance.

You didn't really leave much for me to go by with that. What error?

Captains, While the HotFix server is temporarily down, I have created a temporary installer solution which will update your current 737 to 1.0.7. Simply download and run the installer included in the zip. Click here to download. Thank you for your patience today as we worked through some things. Hopefully this helps to heal some of the waiting that's gone on!

It's possible your 1.0.7 update did not install correctly.

An official update on the situation here:

EDIT: A temporary HotFix downloader is located here. Hi Folks, We had an unexpected situation which caused us to take down the server for analysis and re-configuring. Because this was not planned, it was very abrupt and we were unable to communicate this as a planned maintenance session. We are taking this downtime as a great opportunity to make some other updates on the HotFix system itself, so I don't have an exact time as to when this will be back online. That said, I am currently programming a new solution for everyone as a temporary "fix" so you may still update to 1.0.7. This will be out shortly today (USA time). Apologies for the experience, but sometimes things happen that don't always go as planned. We're on it though, and we appreciate all of you for your patience!

Captains, X-Aviation and IXEG are pleased to provide you a free update to version 1.0.7 of the IXEG 737 Classic! Typically we don't make a habit of doing updates like this back to back, but due to an accidental transmission of slightly out of date files from the IXEG team to X-Aviation we are having to issue this "emergency" 1.0.7 HotFix. We do apologize for any inconvenience! Just like with our previous update, we will use the HotFix upgrade system here. Rather than going and re-downloading an entire aircraft package, or having to go through a full re-install process, we will be offering more immediate code changes through this delivery method. In short, it's quick, easy, and kind of fun! Please read below how to install this update! Version 1.0.6 was released yesterday and was pretty important. 1.0.7 retains everything 1.0.6 had in it, so no need to obtain 1.0.6 if you didn't previously apply the HotFix ID for it! But first, here's what's in it... Version 1.0.7 introduces the following fixes: Fix to "climb page soft crash" Fix to some DCT points disappearing on RTE page Fix to VNAV profiles going over the mach switchover altitude, where you would get UNABLE cruise message To upgrade your aircraft to version 1.0.7 please follow the below steps: Open X-Plane and the 737 Classic as your aircraft In the X-Plane menu bar at top, select Plugins > Gizmo64 > Windows > HotFix You will be asked to enter in your HotFix ID. Copy and paste in the following: e93aecd6f410a55e29965a43e2774142 Click 'Update' Once it has downloaded and installed, click 'Reboot' and you'll be done! Thank you for all of your support! Blue Skies, X-Aviation

Folks, Again, if you have bug reports, do NOT post them in this thread. The bug reporting section of the forums is there for a reason! Your issue may not get addressed if you don't post in a better visible place.

Thanks to you, too, for being a great customer! That's the point!

Sorry, but you have a history here of loving to debate things. Zip files vs installer, location of a plugin vs others, where a product is installed vs others. I said it twice, I'll say it again: we're not doing this discussion. Your answer was here. It's not. It is a necessary for all of our products. Further attempt to derail and implore over something that will not change will result in your suspension from the topic. Let's please move along.

Please create a thread in the bug reporting section.

Thanks!

Just stop. I gave you an answer. It's not changing. I'm absolutely disinterested in getting into a debate with a man who has a problem moving his mouse to a sub folder to select an aircraft. There ARE reasons for this. They ARE very valid. You are NOT the one providing support, and you do NOT have a clue as to why this is necessary. That is OKAY. And that's precisely why you're not the one programming this project or taking lead for us. Your lack of knowledge to the reasons and ways of how these things work is enough for me to not continue this discussion with you. It's an absolute waste of time.

I'm sorry you feel this way. This will not be changing, and we won't be having debates about it. I'll leave my brief explanation below and that's all I'll have to say about it. While you may feel the aircraft works fine, it has potential not to. And, by moving it around you 100% guarantee yourself a miserable upgrade experience going forward. We are on the receiving end of thousands of customers, making our support situation even more miserable when things go wrong due to this. It was time we nip this habit.

Please create a thread in the bug reporting section, and include the Gizmo Log file located in your X-Plane folder.

Captains, X-Aviation and IXEG are pleased to provide you a free update to version 1.0.6 of the IXEG 737 Classic! Just like with our previous update, we will use the HotFix upgrade system here.

In short, it's quick, easy, and kind of fun! Please read below how to install this update! But first, here's what's in it... Version 1.0.6 introduces the following new features: Added FMC reset after landings for turn-around flights so you don’t have to reboot Gizmo. Implemented fuel qty output on PROG page Implemented ETA to T/C, T/D, and E/D on PROG page Implemented Wind speed/dir on PROG page Improved VNAV speed target functionality on VNAV descents New datarefs for Pilotedge pilots. PE can now fail any electrical bus or your hydraulics remotely. Allow use of VNAV for climb and cruise without requiring T/D to exist. Version 1.0.6 introduces the following fixes: Improved ETA values on the PROGRESS page to active and NEXT waypoints. Fixed bug where on the PROGRESS PAGE, fuel used was displayed improperly. Fixed bug where sometimes the magenta route would draw ‘backwards’ from the takeoff runway. Four general fixes for gizmo soft-crashing related to LNAV/VNAV algorithms. Now you can’t enter manual MCP SPD autothrust mode when on VNAV anymore Bearing and distance on FIX INFO page now updates dynamically as you move. Stopped the autopilot speed getting set to 001 in some circumstances Added warning window if the aircraft is not installed into correct X-Plane folder/path. Improved route drawing with conditional waypoints in Navigraph DB Improved waypoint sequencing to be more reliable More accurate Vref entry methods on APPROACH REF page. Fixed lights being "blocky" when having 737 installed and using IVAO Fixed FD MA lights to not turn off when autopilot is engaged FLARE no longer lingering on FMA after autoland and both FDs and APs are off Fixed one case that would lead to having a loop in the route before the missed approach HOLDING pattern Hardened code against speed restriction altitude deletion Improved import and wrong calculation of some altitude restrictions Only show CDU message, ”CHECK ALTITUDE TARGET" when actually engaging the VNAV button. To upgrade your aircraft to version 1.0.6 please follow the below steps: Open X-Plane and the 737 Classic as your aircraft In the X-Plane menu bar at top, select Plugins > Gizmo64 > Windows > HotFix You will be asked to enter in your HotFix ID.
