Will try that! Thanks Tom Pierre

Hello, Got the same problem as Criley above. He did not get an answer. I may ask again how to update IXEG navdata from Navigraph using the FMS Data Manager. IXEG is not automatically recognized so I tried to insert the path manually but it seems it did not update the database. IXEG FMS is still indicating native database...What is the correct path to install via data manager? Best regards, Pierre

ok thanks, that's great news! Hope it will be soon even if just a hotfix. Best regards, Pierre

Hi, I just did the switch from XP10 to XP11 in order to enjoy the beautiful new lighting. I re installed the IXEG 1.2 in XP11 but if the aircraft looks gorgeous from the exterior, I found out that something was missing inside the cockpit only to find out there were no reflections on screens and gauges like I had in XP10. Those reflections were making the cockpit look so real, so I am kinda disappointed. I struggled moving the sun high to low to find some fingers print but really hard to see in fact. Then I found this topic : In this topic, there are 2 screenshots from Jan in XP11 to compare lighting condition and you clearly see the reflections on EFIS and engine instruments. My question is : What am I doing wrong not to have this reflections I like so much? Please, I want my reflections back Best regards, Pierre

Thanks for the answer! So I guess PBR is independent from the livery then. I was wondering how it works. Best regards, Pierre

Hello, Does anyone knows where I can find this Virgin Express livery ? https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/514869-hot-looking-virgin/ Are the liveries created for xplane 10 compatible with xplane 11 and 1.2 version of IXEG? Best regards, Pierre

Hello, I did find out the same conclusion as above. At the time xenviro was downloading weather, I first had a sim hang, then the flight continues. 5 min later, new download from xenviro, new hang and then direct CTD. Nothing in xplane log, but in xenviro Iog could see two download attempts that did not process as the others downloads before that. The timing match the first sim hang and the second CTD. I wrote a ticket at xenviro but it seems not to be of any evidence for Mdavidov. He keeps saying it is due to others plugins or the fact that I reloaded the IXEG above another aircraft (I flew patterns during 1hr in Airfoillabs C172 with xenviro without a problem, then I loaded the IXEG by using the Quick Flight setup option). I had the hang and crash 10 to 15 min into the IXEG flight still on ground. Well for me their is clearly an incompatibility problem between xenviro and IXEG. Don't know which side but I think both developper should have a check because IXEG and xenviro are the best combo currently available in xplane for IFR liner flights. It would be a pity to have to switch off one to enjoy the other. If I remember well from my FSX time, developers such as PMDG, Majestic or Fslabs did cooperate with Hifi Active Sky during their development. Maybe IXEG and xenviro could keep in touch (even if I know both IXEG and xenviro challenger SKYMAXX are selling on the same shop). I also have frequent crashes when loading the IXEG and trying to change start config and fuel or relocate the IXEG. When clicking apply, the IXEG often crashes during reloading. In that case, I have This application has crashed because of the plugin : [XPLM PLUGIN XPLANE] I do not know what is this plugin? Any idea? Best regards, Pierre

Hello, I am also having random crashes lately, since 1.1 it seems. (I am still on XP10. I am using xenviro but I can't do without it because the sim looks so good with it. I am flying everyday IRL and I can say there is no better weather depiction than xenviro currently in XP even if some things need to be adressed. But it really pieces me off to have those crashes. Don't know if it is XP, IXEG or Xenviro. Today, it crashed when I tried to move the IXEG to the gate and load it in turn around mode. It means 3 times loading for XP and crash often occurs on 3rd time. I reloaded the sim, did preflight my 733 but had a crash in initial climb. I reloaded the sim 3rd time, took off right from the runway and the flight went well from LSGG to LFPG. I lost about 30 to 40 min reloading the sim and starting my flight all over again... And nothing in the log to help guessing who is the culprit... But it sure may have to do with IXEG because it only happens when flying the IXEG... Pierre...pissed but loving the IXEG so much

Hi, I have exactly the same problem. Sometimes I can't even fly the 737. Loading the 737, changing state, moving the aircraft to the gate cause Xplane 10 to crash randomly. Sometimes it works straight. I am using Xenviro too. I hope someone can find out what is causing this with xenviro, because weather and xplane rendering is great with xenviro. Can't fly without it. I may drop a ticket at xenviro to see what they can say about that. Best regards, Pierre

Big thank you for that Keep up the good work! Pierre

Hello, Flying yesterday, I noticed that although I set fuel quantity in LBS in the IXEG setting, the fuel gauges read the correct amount of fuel in LBS but KGS is highlighted in the gauges. Is this a bug or a misunderstanding on my part? FMC is correct in LBS also. Best regards, Pierre

Sorry, I found the uninstallers application in the X-Aviation folder. I thought I would have to uninstall manually at 1st. Best regards, Pierre

Hi, I would like to uninstall SMP (as well as RWC). I looked through the documentation but could not find any instructions regarding uninstall. Could you point me out to the uninstall procedure please? Best regards, Pierre

Hello, I was trying some Go Around at EBBR Brussel yesterday, and I had difficulties to follow the Go Around path in LNAV Approach was ILS25R A : I did a late Go Around at Minimum, the FMC sequenced to the next waypoint after RWY25 before I could activate LNAV. LNAV activates fine but the aircraft is not following the LNAV path. I did try 3 times, and never managed to do the Go Around in LNAV. If someone could confirm that it does not work? I am using default AIRAC. Best regards, Pierre

Hi, I am trying to figure out how the thrust mode display is working in the 733. The thrust mode sequence I am seeing seems odd to me but I can't find where to look in the FCOM to learn how is it working. Here is what I am seeing on a typical flight with Derated TO and Derated Climb thrust : - Takeoff : R-TO - After reduction to climb thrust : R-CLB - During climb : Mine is remaining at R-CLB. Should the mode switch to CLB after a while during like on NG as thrust requirement increases at higher altitude. - Leveling to cruise : Thrust mode switches to CRZ - In descend : I am not sure what I should be expecting but I see R-CLB again. I was expecting the thrust mode to remain in CRZ. - Landing : Thrust mode displays GA. But what are the requirements for GA to display. Being below 2000ft RA? I would be glad if someone could explain how is it working or point me to the right FCOM chapter , my curiosity is at high level^^ Best regards, Pierre

ok then that is not what I see in my game. Could you please show a screenshot at say FL350 of this effect? You may try overhead Geneva, the weather is quite crapy today. Pierre

Can we imagine something like nice 3d clouds around and close to the airplane, and fake light 2d or 3d clouds that may fill the gap between the detailed cloud area and the horizon line? Pierre

Hello, I am following this thread progress since the 3.2 is out. I know you put a lot of work in those software, and it is great work. But it appears to me that clearly there is a problem on your side, either directly from your program or due to compatibility issue with others plugin or addons. I do not like to tell such thing without any proof or test but with my son just born a few days ago, I am grounded for some time and can not test out right now. If you just look at famous Osama Youtube video, he did the last one about 3.2 version. At the end, you can see him trying out the cloud visibility setting without any visual changes (from high altitude, above the clouds). The covered area does not increased. I also did notice that at first flight with 3.2 (And it is the same in all videos I watched on YT). I also noticed the bad stutters appearing after some time in the game, and managed to clear them by resseting Skymaxx. My guess is that it is the same for gcharrie and switching RWC to never maybe resseted skymaxx? Maybe there is a problem of vram handling with skymaxx and/or RWC? I have more than 1,5 go free vram when flying. I do not thing there are problems of using to much vram (gcharrie got 1,8 go free with top end GPU) nor should there be fill-rate issue. The product should work correctly with current hardware like Gtx 980 and at least MSAA x 4. Or at least you should be able to show customers how to make it work correctly (with IXEG for exemple because nearly everyone is using IXEG with Skymaxx) and point us out what we are doing wrong. Maybe you could do a vidéo showing us what we can expect and how we have to set our Xplane to achieve such rendering? Maybe you should also check with IXEG because there may be compatibility issues with the new 737. I can see that lots of people having issue are flying the 737... Sorry, I do not want to be the bad guy, I am just a little bit dissappointed. Nevertheless I have great hope for your software, and I am sure you will manage to reach perfection as you are always trying to improve Skymaxx! Best regards, Pierre

We are a few on Skymaxx pro forum who did find out that resetting Skymaxx on the fly would cure big sttuters appearing in flight. My guess is that the problem is with Skymaxx but I can tell for sure as I only fly IXEG. I need to find time for another flight to see if this issue is recurent. Pierre

As I am really new to Xplane (thanks to IXEG) I onnly did a few flight with 3.1 so it will be difficult to compare. I wonder if I will have the same issue withour pausing the game for a long time. Will see Pierre

I had 1,5 go of vram free (on 4 go) in my last flight but even with that, all became laggy until I resest Skymaxx. I will report back with log when I find time to do another flight. Pierre

Yep that is exactly what I mean Then that' s like the real thing ! Great!!! Thanks for let me know, Pierre

Hello, Just want to report a behavior I had on my flight with new 3.2 version. I paused the game for about 1hr and when I went back to the flight, the FPS were very laggy. I had 30fps and smooth experience before pausing the game but after unpausing it was 15fps and not playable. No apparent weather change. What I did is refreshing skymaax setting and the game went back to 30 fps and smooth. Also I would like to understand why there is no visual change in clouds when I set visibilty setting to max? Altough my FPS went really bad, there was always that clouds carpet with clear border around my plane. The clouds seems to move with the plane rather than the plane moving above them. I was flying FL340. Best regards, Pierre

Sorry I do not have any proof to show. I'll take a screnshot if I see it on the next flight Pierre

Hello, I do not know if it is normal but the EGPWS numbers on MAP display rotates when the map is moving and settle back ot their normal position when the map stops moving. I am not sure if it is normal behavior. Best regards, Pierre
