    I find the SR-22 very disappointing as none of the panels PFD etc pop-up and pop-out which is becoming rather the standard on most high end aircraft.  Even Lamar's C-172 G1000 PFD etc pop-up and pop-out.  Thus This SR-22 can't be used with multiple monitors vs RealSimGear hardware.

    Are you sure you're talking about the right SR22? This one does have pop-up and out, and was designed in part BY RealSimGear.

    I think you're talking about another company's SR22.

    Failures on Xplane with TorqueSim SR22 not working?

    I purchased and am using the TorqueSim SR22 (version 1.1.0) with Xplane (version:11.50r3 build 115033 64 bit, Vulkan).

    My instructor is trying to use Xplane failures, but they don’t seem to be working (we have tried Alternator failure, governor failure etc).

    Any suggestions?

    You do not have a commercial license, which would be required as specified on the product page.

    "This is not a support thread." How helpful. Now I have to ask where one might find a support thread or is that not included in the $54 purchase price? An unstartable engine seems to be included, however.

    In the actual support forums, not in a news article: https://forums.x-pilot.com/forums/forum/243-sr22-series/

    You're likely flooding the engine, or not cracking the throttle enough.

    Cool your attitude or you'll be gone pretty quick. That wasn't with sarcasm.

    Hi, 

    Recently I bought the BN-2 Islander from X-Avitation. I like the airplane very much. There is only one anomaly that I encounter. The popup window of the RXP GTN-750 has no bezel. Because of this I cannot move the popup window over the screen. Also the buttons on the bezel like the important D-> (Direct-to) button is missing for the lack of the bezel. See the attached screenshot. In the default (startup) position of the RXP GTN-750 object it has a bezel. It works OK (see 2nd screenshot).

    Post in the support forums if you need assistance. :)

    I like the new fresh look. Is there any chance you can get the Login to work with the Opera browser? Once I enter my creds nothing happens. No error message and no indication that I am logged in.  (note: seems like the x-pilot site works with Opera but not the X-Aviation site). Firefox works fine but I personally prefer Opera.  Thanks for the great support over the years!

    Opera is working fine for logins (have just tested). My best guess is you should try emptying your browser cache/cookies and try again.

    Just picked this aircraft up .. love it .. but I have noticed some odd things about the sound that probably means I am doing something wrong:

    No volume change when I open the window hatch;

    No ground-roll sounds at all;

    No touchdown tire-squeal;

    Grateful for any light somebody could shed on this !

    Download the update. Any further issues after that, use the support forum. :)

    will there be an update soon, to get SkyMaxx Pro running with Metal on MacOs with XP 11.50?

    X-Plane can be ran in two modes on Mac: OpenGL or Metal

     

    When using OpenGL selected in rendering settings, you may fully enjoy SkyMaxx Pro v4.9.1.

     

    There will not be a Metal version of SkyMaxx Pro v4 for Mac, sadly. The reason was clearly laid out by Laminar Research (developers of X-Plane) in the following words:

     

    "...3-d drawing compatibility will be available for Vulkan, but not Metal. The technique we are using is not available on OS X, so running a cloud plugin on Mac will require the OpenGL driver, not Metal. This isn’t something we can fix with some future bit of cleverness – it’s a limitation of OS X’s APIs. (We would revisit this if Apple introduced a new API but I do not expect this to happen.)"

     

    You can read more about that here:

    https://developer.x-plane.com/2020/02/cloud-add-ons-and-vulkan-episode-iv-a-new-hope/

     

    In other words, it's simply impossible to do.
