Hi, Eaglewing, As Indi- has stated, the issues you speak of are indicative of a plug-in being moved from OUT of the aircrafts directory to the resources/plugins folder. Nothing should ever be removed from the aircraft folder after it's been unzipped!

Tom, FTS1000 is a product made by FlyTheSim, which has its own database. The G1000 in the C400 uses the standard X-Plane nav database, which does not include SIDs/STARs. You can simulate a SID or STAR by entering each of the waypoints that are part of the procedure you want to fly. Jim Of course I mixed up the names (I was beta tester for the FTS1000) - I ment the G1000 which has sid - approaches - arrivals - this is what makes it very special that is why i asked. so I have to use it as I use any of this default fmc gps of xplane. I really thought you reachrd the goal to simulate the g1000 gps like it is in real using navigraph database like javier cortes in his ufmc. absolute clear that I can enter any waypoint by hand - but this is not like the g1000 is working. but anyway a good model. cheers tom It works quite proper in it's navigation and waypoint usage, Tom. The downfall of X-Plane's OWN navdata is the lack of SIDs and STARs. Perhaps this is something we can work on in due time. It's a couple of extra steps to enter waypoints manually, but the end result is the same when in flight at the moment. For what it's worth, there is a comparison chart download freely available to everyone on the product page.

No need to stress, guys. We'll more than likely get something out to you soon. Enjoy your flights for now!

Hi, Andy, There are a ton of details listed on FSBuild here: http://secure.simmarket.com/ernie-alston-fsbuild-2.phtml Though it doesn't have a plug-in running in X-Plane, it DOES export flight plans to X-Plane, and does it well. The nav data is updated every cycle, and the best part about that is that the nav data cycles are FREE to you as a customer! It's just always been my personal preference.... I also note on the Goodway site that it appears they are no longer allowing demo downloads or purchases.

Hi, Pete, The most commonly used application is called Goodway. You can see this here: http://www.xpgoodway.com/ I must first warn you that I hear mixed reviews these days about Goodway delivering their licenses in a timely manner to purchasing customers. Sometimes it's right away, other times it's weeks. My personal favorite application for X-Plane exported flight plans is FSBuild: http://fsbuild.com/

I too was hit with this after visiting STMA's site. It's now happening when I go to the org as well. The end result was a program called relevant knowledge installed on my computer, causing insane lagging and ultimately BSOD's. Not very fun. I've finally cleared this out, but be warned to those on windows machines!

Somehow I knew this request would come from none other than Dhruv.

Hi, Gizmo is not used for any aircraft with the exception of the Falco and the Cessna Corvalis. Can you re-install Gizmo and post a log.txt from your X-Plane directory?

Hi, Upon purchase you'll be issued a single computer license, however, we are working to further automate this to enable multiple computers that you may own without having to contact us at all. Until this is in place, we are working on multiple licenses on a contact basis, but you do NOT have to purchase multiple copies of the aircraft. Simply use the contact form on X-Aviation to arrange for this: http://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/contact_us.php This is a very quick process!

Got it! Thanks!

Hello, all!, The Cessna Corvalis shown in the Work In Progress section of this forum has been released and can be purchased here: http://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/product_info.php?products_id=54 The Work In Progress section for the Corvalis has been changed to a read-only forum, and all new topics regarding the aircraft should be posted in the support section here: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?board=88.0 Enjoy the Coravlis!

The scenery is pretty well complete, however, we have hit a snag with what we believe is a bug in X-Plane and needs to be fixed before we can release. We are working with Laminar to resolve the issue, but no telling how long that will be.

No, That product is $100+ after you buy their plug-in and application to run it. Additionally, FTS does not run on Mac or Linux natively.

X-Aviation is pleased to announce the addition of 4Fources to our list of developers. More info and screenshots of their first up and coming product can be found at the link: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?topic=713.msg5737

X-Aviation is pleased announce we have added 4Forces as a developer to our long list of products we choose to publish. 4Forces is led by Mr. Jason Clark (aka Airbus), and we're happy to have him aboard! The first product for 4Forces will be the Cessna 152, and can be seen here: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?topic=712.0 Enjoy the previews and everything 4Forces has to offer in the coming days!

The FPS hit is honestly going to be minimal. Too minimal to even really be worried about. However, given how easy it is to edit the settings of what to display from inside the aircraft, I don't think we'll be opposed to testing this.

Yes.

Hi, Jason, The initial Columbia 400's were more along the colors you are thinking of, which were then dubbed the Cessna 400. As Cessna moved to the Corvalis TT line the interior changed some, and part of that was the more bland coloration you see depicted. As this aircraft is modeled after the TT, the textures mimic such. Here's a shot of a real TT:

I don't think Peter's aircraft have 3D panels and interiors like Maxime is asking for, do they? I've heard a lot of good things about Peter's work though.

A couple more shots from in sim showing various screens:

No need...both of Austin's planes (livery wise) have been done.

X-Aviation is pleased to announce the addition of another developer to our family, as well as the introduction of the Cessna Corvalis TT project (Commonly known as the Columbia 400). Check it out in the Work in Progress section located under JGX-Designs here: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?board=77.0

Hello, All, X-Aviation is pleased to announce we have reached a mutual agreement with JGX-Designs to be the publisher of choice for what is sure to be a series of new and exciting aircraft for X-Plane. JGX-Designs is ran by Mr. Jim Gregory, and he'll be able to answer most any of your questions as well as announce features and future products as he progresses with X-Aviation and continues to bring the latest technology and quality products to the table we strive to achieve. With that said, we're happy to also introduce to you JGX-Design's first product: The Cessna Corvalis! Some of you may remember the Columbia 400. This is the same aircraft, however re-labeled to the Cessna Corvalis name after Cessna purchased Columbia Aircraft. Jim will respond here with in depth information on the project, what it provides, and where it will go in the future. Enjoy the screenshots, and again, welcome to the X-Aviation family, Jim!

Hi, there, Everyone will remain with the same plug-in.

Everyone take a breather...seriously. The following post was made only 5 days ago...little has changed: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?topic=533.msg5242#msg5242 For every time we have to come over here and answer these questions, it's in that exact moment we get off track of what we're doing and take time away from working on stuff. We promise...when there is genuine news to post, we WILL post it. Until then, let us lay low for a bit and work. It's perfectly okay to ask questions about liveries, some product features, etc., but before doing so, please do research and have a read here: http://forums.x-pilot.com/index.php?topic=543.0
