It tells you what to do. Type FREEZE.

Trust me, I'm not oblivious to this kind of thing when it comes to upgrades in real aircraft. However, this is an SR22 with Garmin Perspective avionics. It's not realistic to do this kind of change. In an Avidyne equipped SR22 that has designated slots for a GPS (or dual), sure, but not Garmin Perspective equipped aircraft. There's no room for it, it's not intended for it, and I can't ever see it being certified for such. So, my question of "why" stands. It makes no sense.

Trailing means after, so 800 in this instance.

Cameron replied to Cameron's topic in General Discussion
There is nothing we can do to speed up your connection. -
No. For now the primary focus remains on the -300.

They cannot be turned off. No. No. The premise behind this product is to be true to life. There are no "short cuts" so to speak.

Can you make sure you try this in 1.33 and confirm?

Good to hear. Weird, but happy none the less!

Hello All, This will serve as a formal forum announcement that we have released the version 1.33 update for the Take Command! IXEG 737 Classic. All customers who have purchased the IXEG 737 Classic up till now have been sent an e-mail by X-Aviation with complete instructions on how to obtain your update. We have made this a very simple process! For those that purchase the IXEG 737 Classic from today forward, your purchased download will already be updated to version 1.33 for you. It is for X-Plane 11. If you use X-Plane 10, you can still install an old version of the aircraft from the installer, but this update does not otherwise apply to you. Caution: This update is optimized for XP11.41 and newer only! If you run it any previous X-Plane version it will still work, but the aerodynamic model gets changed and will not fly "by the numbers" anymore! Install at your own risk (make a backup of the aircraft folder first, especially if you run XP10)! What if I didn't get the update e-mail? If you did not receive your update e-mail don't fret! X-Aviation has updated our system to allow all customers to update with ease, regardless of whether you received an e-mail for the update! Here's what to do: 1. Login to your X-Aviation account here: https://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/account_history.php 2. Find your original IXEG 737 Classic download and re-download the file. It will download as the latest version! The following is a list of additions/fixes included: Bug fixes: Fixed gizmo crash when picking a runway that is not supported by the selected STAR Fixed gizmo crash when selecting certain procedures while the LEGS page is open on left CDU. Fixed spelling error that caused problems with case sensitive operating systems Fixed rolling digits behaviour on FLT ALT (pressurization) window when scrolling down with mousewheel Fixed EGT indicator needle on steam instruments not pointing to correct values Fixed FO side glass pane not moving with sliding window Fixed weird altitude restrictions shown, like 0000A/5000B Prevent wind display going blank in flight with strong headwind and low groundspeed Prevent windshear warning going off when not warranted Fixed various lua errors related to procedure selection Improvements: Made N1 fan disk be opaque when viewing engine from behind while running Enabled fire warning/fire fighting and auto-shutdown for APU Enabled engines to restart after extinguishing a fire without having to reload aircraft Implemented full ignition system behaviour (electrical supply, start- and selection switch dependencies) Increased "grab area" of both-throttle manipulator for VR and mouse users Adjusted "grab area" of engine start switches to be more intuitive Additions: Added many custom commands that can be mapped to hardware or keys Added 8.33kHz support for the radios 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.

I suggest you have a read through these forums about VNAV, why it is the way it is, and the fact that the following is also not entirely true: "Not ideal or how it would be in real life as a 737 would almost always use VNAV for descent..." Plenty of information to the contrary about this, specifically with the Classic. @Litjan was a Captain on this aircraft for many years. VNAV just wasn't a thing in daily life, and he explains reasons why when it comes to this specific aircraft in various threads. That said, yes, VNAV has quirks. This is also why I suggest you read around. It's not something hidden by any means.

It's not even close to being a thought on the radar for right now. We have many projects going on, and X-Plane is still a very viable platform. Wherever your simming takes you, if it's MSFS 2020, I hope you enjoy!

I don't know why you're saying please as if to roll your eyes. You literally said the following with regards to Linux: "...it gave same result. No Internet connection." That error is not possible under Linux. @Ben Russell will need to chime in here, but my understanding of the "no internet connection" message is related to a timeout of your connection or not being able to access a specific webpage. Considering you claim to be getting this on numerous machines you own, I can only deduce some form or firewall (perhaps on your router) playing a role.

How much much better will SkyMaxx Pro look with the new iMac?
Cameron replied to 777-300's topic in General Discussion
The 5700XT runs X-Plane quite nicely. That said, SkyMaxx Pro would run smoother rather than look different. Also keep in mind that SkyMaxx Pro is compatible with OpenGL only on Mac. Metal will not be supported due to limitations beyond our control. -
Why would you actually want to?
-
Did 3 times WHAT? Because your last support ticket was July 18th, and it was resolved same day. Just want to be clear here. Aside from that, answers are in this thread as to what's going on. It's not too hard to understand with the explanations already given.
-
The aircraft modeled are the SR22 G3 series. You sure you're looking at that? Their website would only show the CURRENT models, which I believe are now G6 and do have a larger useful load. Each generation tends to increase the useful load, but the G5 especially did after a gross weight increase and some re-design in the structure of the aircraft. A fairly good article about that and the flying differences in the G3 vs G5 is here: https://www.flyingmag.com/aircraft/pistons/generation-5-cirrus-sr22/

It may only occur with this aircraft simply for the fact we reach into the areas of the sim some others don't, therefore exposing a bug in Laminar's code. Having read Sid's reply, he's really not pointing fingers at third party devs there. Jenkins is their compile platform, and only they will have access to what's going on there. Sounds are also 100% controlled by Laminar code via FMOD integration. Sid flat out gives a link to the bug reporter at the end of his post, and seems a lot of people have resolved the error by keeping the factory overclock off on the GPU.

Your machine was locked on your own. Once a machine is locked (by you typing FREEZE), it is de-activated forever.

That appears to be a Laminar error. You should report that to them!
