Thanks for the kind words! FMOD update should be rolling out real soon

Can you make sure the Cockpit lights knob is turned completely off and the Cabin lights switch is turned off too?

The switches return to be where you left them. If you want to disable this setting, you can change our settings.cfg file in TorqueSim BN-2 Islander/plugins/is_systems/settings. You can set "disablePersist" to 1.

This sounds like our plugin isn't loading, can you share your log.txt file so we can diagnose?

The aircraft itself won't use that much VRAM, with scenery it can easily skyrocket. This is just a step for debugging in the process to figure out what is going on, as we can't replicate this issue

The HSI course needs to be adjusted manually to match the GPS course.

Regarding the engine switches, make sure that the External/Starter Isolation switch is turned on, that is the most typical thing that would prevent the starters from their operation. This system is described on page 2-4 of the manual. Regarding the external covers, there is a bug preventing their logic from working, this will be fixed ASAP. To hide/show them this can be done through the sidebar menu; if you hover your mouse on the left edge of the screen, the tab to open the menu will show. We will make sure to get this documented in the manual.

You can try this out, it should help based on your texture settings:

TorqueSim BN-2 Islander 2K Texture Pack View File Here is the 2K texture pack for the TorqueSim BN-2 Islander! For those who have high VRAM usage, this should help for performance Included is: "objects" folder, this can replace the files of the same name in your objects folder to make them 2K resolution "liveries" folder, this contains 2K versions of the default liveries, you can replace your default liveries with the attached Submitter Coop Submitted 04/26/2020 Category Liveries Livery For https://www.x-aviation.com/catalog/product_info.php/torquesim-islander-p-177 X-Plane Version(s) X-Plane 11  

@dresoccer4 What is the displayed VRAM usage in X-Plane graphics settings?

Maybe! It is a convenient tablet, I think it would be nice to have it put in for sure!

@dresoccer4 Can you try at PMDY (airport in the middle of nowhere in the Pacific) to see if it might be related to scenery and isolate it to the plane. Once there if you turn off all the lights (exterior and panel) if that helps at all?

Nope, all you need to do is download the patch file from here: http://afms.im/G5Wiki (Just add the files inside the download for the BN-2 Islander to the Islander folder in Aircraft/X-Aviation Let me know if anything comes up!

I imagine it would be the GTN taking over the GNS controls

That is quite odd. One idea I have, it might be the prop disc. Can you check to see if it only happens if the propeller is in the view?

Glad to hear it, great!

Interesting, can you share your log.txt file? Are you on 11.41 or 11.50?

In Plane Maker -> Viewpoint -> Cockpit, you can adjust these settings to choose where to show which objects (make sure to match both the top and bottom row) I will file an issue on this to see if we have a reason they are all checked; if we don't then we will get it fixed in one of the coming updates.

This is most likely due to VRAM usage, we are working on a 2K texture pack mod that should roll out over the next few days which should improve VRAM usage and performance. In the meantime, lowering the X-Plane texture settings should help.

Regarding performance, we are thinking this is due to VRAM usage, we are going to add a 2K texture pack within the next few days as an available mod Regarding engine sounds, ASAP. These should be rolling out hopefully in a patch tomorrow if everything comes together as we hope

@clecorouge Looks great!

Sent you a beta copy to try that should simplify this

Hi Mike, For using it as a popup there is quite little that actually needs to be done in the acfConfig (and even less in the coming update 1.1.0). If you go to the X-Plane command window, you can bind a keyboard or joystick key to open the G5 windows. If you search afm/g5/cmd you should see the commands under popup for both a and b. Good idea on the plugin item: I will add that to the list!

Perfect glad that worked
