Things happen.

Nope.

I don't think James was speaking to you, Steve.

Hi, Civvy, Welcome to X-Pilot! Can you please specify whether you are trying this with the version of X-Plane that came off of the X-Plane DVD, or with the latest updated version from the web? If you only just installed X-Plane directly from the DVDs, then you'll need to download the free updater and run it. You can obtain it here: http://x-plane.com/pg_downloads.html

This topic is closed. One PM, four e-mails, two posts. Enough.

As previously stated, you need to contact X-Aviation: http://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/contact_us.php

This is likely attributed to missing files in your plugins/systems folder. Please submit a ticket through the contact form on X-Aviation. Easy fix!

Hi, Jol, Two replies were sent to you for two e-mails from last week. Please ensure you have nothing in your spam folder. I'll have a reply sent to you once more tomorrow to give you time to check on this. Best, Cameron

RealScenery works flawlessly in X-Plane 10. Load times are fantastic, and the scenery mixed with X-Plane's lighting is really very nice. The pack overrides whatever we tell it to. In X-Plane 9 we made the decision to override due to the poor placement of objects in sim. With X-Plane 10 the verdict is still out. Depending on how it looks we'll make the decision to choose whatever makes the scenery look most convincing in sim! Should we choose to make some kind of update for this, all customers who have purchased for 9 will get a FREE upgrade to 10.

The DC-3.

Not misled at all! I had never seen the release and had assumed it was still in progress till I got news about it. Still good to have up for those that have not known of its release.

Hi, there, It's a number of factors for the jumping FPS, including: Where your current location in sim is, what page in the FMS you're on, and whether your displays are on. The Q6600 is a relatively decent CPU, but using the older tech in comparison to those like Sandy Bridge. The biggest bottleneck here is likely to be the CPU itself. As a tip, try and stay off the LEGs page while in flight on your FMC unless you're actually using it. This can eliminate some stutter if you're experiencing any, as the page constantly refreshes navdata to check distances, etc.

Trying to determine if your landing was good or bad based on deployment of the reversers is not the way to go. You don't want it too soft, but you don't want it too hard. Reversers will come on from the "nice to too hard" level.

LOL!

Except it's SASL based, which poses some problems...

That's not Austin's video, Arti. And it wasn't shot on the machine you suggest.

I am unable to reproduce this on any iPhone or iPad. Can you show a screenshot?

Seattle was only release this week. I'm not quite sure what you're talking about, Sethesus. Other Boeing Country packs have been released over time, but not SeaTac.

Thanks. I'll look into this. Cam

Jo, You'll need to submit a request to X-Aviation. If you have already done so we'll get to you shortly. If you have not, please do so. We're in a travel week this week, so we're getting to requests ASAP.

Pretty cool. X-Aviation did some work this year for ICON Aircraft and we had a party during the week which we put on for various people in Oshkosh. Harrison Ford was one of our guests and was a nice guy to talk to. He has a great passion for aviation, and is especially interested in helo flying!

Hi, Gene, As an X-Plane user myself going on 12 years I can certainly understand how things have just always "worked." Part of that was the simplicity level for which X-Plane offered to artists. Until the SDK came out we did not even have the ability to do things like reverse thrust animations. As time goes on and the market demands it, things like you speak of will go further and further into the realm of departing X-Plane's internal, default capabilities and more features like you speak of will break in replay mode. The only real solution here is for Austin to do a complete re-write, but knowing him as well as I do, I am quite certain this would and is not anywhere near the top of his bucket list. Not having reverse thrust animations (or flaps should it end up that way someday) show up in replay mode is not a bad compromise in my opinion when it comes to functionality during live flight. So long as we are able to push the bounds of X-Plane into a new era, I think the replay mode shouldn't be such a drawback. That said, I do realize I am one man, and this is one man's opinion. In a perfect world we would have both, but we're teeter tottering between leveraging the SDK and pushing the bounds for exceptional add-ons, or keeping thing relatively status quo just for the sake of replaying a landing and seeing an animation "go." Given the options, I'm quite confident we've made the right decision to continue to push the envelope further than what X-Plane's default engine provides, and I dearly hope other developers and distributors do the same!

I do realize some people have their own reasons for things, so I'm sorry to hear your not satisfied with your purchase due to replay not showing reverse thrusters, Gene. This is really an X-Plane limitation. Using the standard dataref over our own for systems modeling purposes can cause another feature of the aircraft not to work during flight, and two datarefs cannot be tied to the same animation. Given this situation, I think it's best we opt for what works during your flight experience in real time and not what happens in replay mode. I'd like to ask...out of simple curiosity, however...what is it about a reverse thrust not showing in replay mode that makes your purchase price factor be questionable so much? What do you use it for?

Goran's intentions are never good under these types of circumstances, Jim. Don't listen to him. See you soon.
