  1. Hello All, This will serve as a formal forum announcement that we have released the version 4.7 update for SkyMaxx Pro. All customers who have purchased SkyMaxx Pro v4 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 SkyMaxx Pro v4 from today forward, your purchased download will already be updated to version 4.7 for you. 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 SkyMaxx Pro 4 download and re-download the file. It will download as the latest version! The following is a list of additions/fixes included: What's New / Changed: Big new feature! Exposes new "FSGRW / External Injector" mode for Real Weather Connector users, offering tighter integration with FSGRW for localized weather effects and cloud types specific to FSGRW. This mode may also be used with other external injectors such as Active Sky (ASXP) that modify X-Plane's METAR.rwx file, but FSGRW will provide more accurate cloud types when used. Improved cloud visuals, and reduced rotation artifacts from cloud puffs Initial VR support Increased maximum cloud draw area and default cloud draw area setting Various performance improvements and bug fixes As always, thanks for purchasing from X-Aviation!
  2. Today we are pleased to announce new integration with SkyMaxx Pro v4.7+ and FS Global Real Weather. In order to take advantage of these features you will also need to have Real Weather Connector installed. Any current customers of SkyMaxx Pro v4 as of the moment of this writing will receive an e-mail with a 30% discount code off retail price of FS Global Real Weather. The discount will be valid for 30 days. When SkyMaxx Pro v4.7 and Real Weather Connector are installed, you will now see the following FSGRW / External Injector option for Real Weather Connector settings: The Press Release is as follows: Maxx XP, in collaboration with Sundog Software, is pleased to announce a cooperation with PILOT’S to facilitate creating an incredibly immersive and extremely realistic real-time weather environment for X-Plane 11. PILOT’S FS Global Real Weather, the highly acclaimed weather engine for X-Plane 11, has been adapted from build 403 onwards to fully interact with Sundog Software’s Real Weather Connector and the newly released Maxx XP SkyMaxx Pro v4.7 update! The FS Global Real Weather engine is able to process a wide variety of cloud identifiers, such as Cirrus, Cumulus, Stratus, Cumulonimbus and Towering Cumulus. Cirrocumulus, Nimbostratus and Stratocumulus depiction in X-Plane 11 is planned for the near future. This detailed, cloud specific information is passed onto Real Weather Connector, allowing SkyMaxx Pro cloud types and their corresponding cloud textures in X-Plane 11 to be correctly interpreted and drawn for different altitude levels, while at the same time FS Global Real Weather injects real-time wind data into X-Plane 11. This adds a highly sophisticated level of realism to the X-Plane 11 world, and greatly enhances the immersive environment for both low-level GA flyers and high-altitude airline pilots.
  3. Yes. You will get MORE features when using it with FSGRW though.
  4. Gavin, I made a post in this topic a week ago. I'm pretty sure you don't speak for even a percentage point of the community; just yourself given your history of liking to argue. If you want to seek out a place to try and be a hero or spark arguments you're in the wrong place. One, and only warning. The next time it happens you're simply banned.
  5. ...because it's the default livery of the Cargo. If you install Cargo, you have the livery.
  6. Meanwhile the TBM pilot who owns the real thing that was on our beta team gives it insane praises. Go figure!
  7. A few things... Do you have the runway contours following setting enabled or disabled? Try the opposite setting than what you have. Do you have AIPILOTX mesh installed, or only default?
  8. The gateway does not accept such files. Almost assuredly you have an underlay folder NOT labeled EGE. This is definitely not something Laminar included.
  9. You are using orthoimagery in these pictures. That's not supported.
  10. No timeline for that yet. We were talking about it today and have ideas what could be causing it, but it requires more work than one would think.
  11. Using xEnviro with the Saab is going to do that until the fix for the issue comes out. As I recall that fix will be coming from Laminar. Micro stuttering like you discuss with WT3 sound very much like your CPU is at a stage of full load.
  12. We do not have any X-Plane 10 copies on our server or in backup.
  13. You will need to use a non-beta version of X-Plane 11.
  14. This is an issue with your Mac. You'll need to google the error for ways around fixing it.

    That error will happen if you are using an OLD installer. Make sure you are using the newest one you downloaded!

    No Sound

    That's not true. You did receive a response, and then this week you sent in a new support ticket which you also received a response to. I think you need to look in your spam box.
  17. Odd. This person contradicts what you're saying: http://forums.x-pilot.com/forums/topic/15271-side-bar-is-back-but/
  18. The bar you see there is Gizmo's side bar, which is not in control of the coding done by Hot Start. You can hide that bar by clicking on the preferences icon and checking the hide tool tray option.
  19. Hello All, This will serve as a formal forum announcement that we have released the version 1.1.1 update for the TBM 900. All customers who have purchased the TBM 900 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 TBM 900 from today forward, your purchased download will already be updated to version 1.1.1 for you. 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 TBM 900 download and re-download the file. It will download as the latest version! The following is a list of additions/fixes included: What's New / Changed: Deleted prop stripes from 1 side of blades Re-added pens on glareshield Fixed multi-monitor issues with sidebar drawer positioning and screen flicker Flightlog was storing altitude as meters instead of feet Flight recovery with engine running was broken Implemented X-IvAp COM2 workaround. Added disabling of COM1/2 on initial load Landing lights were on with no power Reflection light source for standby instrument on the glareshield needs to be animated GASC cabin rate should be higher, seen up to 890 ft/min IRL Small VRAM memory leak fixes Implemented custom logging facility to capture crash dumps without overwriting them Flightlog units were incorrect for GPS alt and waypoint distance Position restore would incorrectly place aircraft into the air when ground lowered due to terrain flattening settings change or change in scenery Bad unit conversion would produce spurious terrain alerts on landing at high-altitude airports Increased RTC/ITI runway distance inhibit threshold to allow for approaches into runways with close-by terrain. Airportdb could leak open file descriptors Possible use-after-free of runway data in runway data update 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.

    Strange Bug!

    Hot Start has a discord. That is directly with Hot Start. Your comments are getting old here, Craig. Enough.

    Strange Bug!

    Goran has been posting in this thread and is a developer of Hot Start. This is your one warning. Pull stupid stunts like this again and you're gone.
  22. Whatever narrative makes you feel better I'm okay with.
  23. Dang you're exhausting, Craig. You sure know how to make a simple thing complex. I've stated my points. You can try and argue them all you want, and dismiss the facts to please your theory. I'm done with the subject. What I have said stands. Now you know, and I'm pleased to see others don't seem to have the same issue you do interpreting and following those guidelines.
