Hi, I also use a 4k display and agree - it would be desirable to increase the text size with rising resolutions. I hope to be able to get this included with a future update. Cheers, Jan

Thanks for confirming that, @SeaHawk14! It highlights a problem that not only we at IXEG but also Laminar Research has: Buggy add-ons that lead the user to report a "bug" to us (or Laminar). I wish that everyone would test their X-Plane (and our IXEG) without any other addons possibly interfering before coming to us (or Laminar) crying BUG!!!!

Thanks for reporting back. However, it surprises me that you were running Vanilla (+better Pushback) and that was crashing, however now you took out XPrealistic (which was not even installed on your crashing version that you sent your last log.txt from), and the crashes stop? It is pretty mysterious how programs install and uninstall themselves on your computer, unbeknownst to you... It also makes it pretty difficult to help you, if you and me both don´t exactly know what is installed and what isn´t.

Yep, it works totally fine. I am sure that you forgot to turn on the WXR power switch here: (Yes, the weather radar power switch is ALSO needed to enable the EGPWS terrain display, it is a retrofit for the 737 classic and piggiebacks on the weather radar symbol generator to generate it´s returns).

It is not known - and I believe not true...however I will gladly test this on my side today and let you know what I find out!

Huh, that is weird - I don´t get the bell at all when I use that switch. Maybe a plugin is interfering?

No, that should not be a problem - if you get too few (below 20) you would get into problems where the simulator time slows down as the flightmodel is depending on fast enough framerate, but too fast? However, it surprises me that you get such a good performance, are you running deliberately low with your graphical quality? I would expect you to get between 40 and 80 fps - unless flying in the middle of the ocean, of course.

Your hardware is certainly very capable - and it is a good sign that your total vanilla installation is stable. Now I know that people are using Better Pushback with no problem (do you have the latest version?) and I know that people use our IXEG with no problem.... I am not aware of systematic incompatibility between these two add-ons, but it would be interesting to find out if you suffer crashes when using EITHER only BetterPushback OR the IXEG? Another thing to consider is overclocking (you shouldn´t).

And I also doublechecked the engine start times in our latest version: Time from actuation of start switch to 25% N2 (fuel introduction): 20s Time to starter cutout (46% N2): 25s Time to stable idle run (21% N1): 55s I agree that the time from 25% N2 to 46%N2 is a bit too fast (this is a X-Plane problem that should be solved in the near future, I worked with Austin on this), but the total startup time is realistic.

I am not sure if you are using the IXEG or some other aircraft?? Here is the LIGHT TEST button, if you activate it, no sound is played: Here is the Firewarning test switch, if you toggle it to the right, the warning lights illuminate and the bell sounds: Here is the EFIS CONTROL PANEL with the VOR/ADF pushbutton, if you enable it, you can see RMI indications on the EHSI map:

No one likes to hear that, I will maybe just say in the future that I have no idea why someone is suffering crashes but good luck and all the best! For some reason people like to hear that more than the cold hard truth . Note that if you file a bug report with Laminar about your X-Plane crashing and they see a log like this, they will politely tell you that they are thankful for your report and that making X-Plane stable is one of their chief priorities and then they will suggest that you install X-Plane fresh (I wonder why they would suggest that? ). Try it if you don´t believe me And I´d like to point out that "Better pushback" miraculously installed itself into your vanilla installation. However - this should not cause the crash, it would be interesting to know if a (true) vanilla installation runs on your computer without crashing and if it starts crashing after you added the IXEG (and Gizmo).

Remove everything that did not come with the initial installation of X-Plane. Then run X-Plane and you will find that it will not crash. Then start adding everything you removed one by one, and test for a longer time before you add the next item - once it starts crashing, you have found the problem (it was the last thing you added). I can not tell you which of the myriad of add-ons and extra scenery causes your crash, not even Laminar will know, you have to find out yourself. The more you add to X-Plane, the more likely it is to crash. I recommend running it as "vanilla" as possible for a stable experience.

I thought we fixed the quick engine start...it was a problem with X-Plane itself, not our add-on. Let me test that when I get home on Tuesday, I will get back to you. The crash will likely go away if you delete all that cr*p you piled into your X-Plane installation and also update your Nvidia drivers.

Hi! 3 and 4 are known (and mentioned in the "Things not working in..." post I made. The others are new to me - I will test that at home, but I think you are doing something incorrectly. The bell only activates if you do the fire warning test on the center pedestal fire warning panel. This is correct and the real plane does it, too. The light test is not part of the preliminary procedure (enabled with the BRT/DIM/TST switch), and it should not trigger the bell. The VOR needles on the EHSI should work, make sure you have the button on that enables the arrows and that the VOR can be received.

Great pictures! And I am happy that you seem to enjoy the plane, make sure you explore some of the options like using the "classical" steam-type instrument panel (you can switch on the fly)! Happy landings!
