Yes, I worked all morning on that! Just kidding - but I am happy it works for you now!

Ok, I know next to nothing about how the DRM part works or not, as in your case, maybe @Cameron has a quick idea? Otherwise I would encourage you to file an official support ticket with the X-Aviation store, where they handle the more technical problems of installation and DRM. Note that it can take a few days to get a reply, especially on the weekend. Sorry that you are having problems, Jan

Oops, you are right! Christian, we had that level-2 fail problem on initial launch but I havent heard about it for a long time. Did you get the Gizmo version with your download, too?

The IXEG version 1.5.2 is not compatible with X-Plane 11.

Glad to get this sorted out! Happy New Year to you, too! Jan

Hi James, lets try to get to the ground of this...if you use the DATA OUTPUT menu and tick the leftmost checkbox for "gear and brakes" you should be able to see the deflection of your nosegear and also the application of your brakes. Make sure that the rudder pedals allow to deflect the nosegear all the way left and right and that your wheelbrakes close and release as expected. Also note that you need hydraulic power to move the nosegear and also to use the brakes. Last but not least I would recommend removing better pushback (completely) until you have figured out your steering problems. It can influence things like steering and braking and this will make troubleshooting so much harder. Let me know how this goes! Cheers, Jan

Hmm - I will have to doublecheck the logic. Did you trigger starting the scavenge pump?

This was fixed in 1.5.2 - did you update to the latest version? Normally in X-Plane, dynamic lights can not be blocked by aircraft structures such as the cockpit back wall. Therefore we turn off the galley light when the camera is inside the cockpit AND the cockpit door is closed.

You are right - it is a known issue, I haven´t added it to the list...will do! Merry Christmas!

Oh - did you have random failures on in X-Plane? There are some that will affect your pitot-static system, that is the first thing that I suspect here.

Sounds like a good idea!

I recommend keeping the window closed when it rains, because otherwise your pants will get wet and the flight attendants will look at you with a questioning look when you come out of the cockpit.

The problem with this "gear warning" is that you see it all the time - so you totally get used to it . Fortunately there is also the gear warning horn (also implemented correctly) that will sound when you misconfigure for landing (silenceable/not silenceable) and of course finally the GPWS warning "too low - gear". So for a mentally healthy and composed pilot it is virtually impossible to land with the gear up - there are some skillsets that do allow this, though.

Thanks for the report! The red lights are part of the gear warning that is supposed to warn you if the gear is up and the power is below a certain thrust. It works correctly. Cheers, Jan

That is a limitation of X-Plane - try to taxi into an open hangar and then turn on the rain when you are inside

I think the plane is old enough as it is . The team added the steam gauge instruments to make me happy (this is what we had in our fleet), but I don´t think we are going to go through the effort to add even more vintage instruments...it is not trivial and the time would be better spent elsewhere. Sorry!

Known issue, it is on my list. The APU does not get fed from the left tank (this is a common misconception), it is fed from the left side of the fuel manifold. Otherwise balancing could never work as the fuel could not reach the feed line (there is a check-valve to prevent inadvertent transfer of fuel into the tanks). This misconception is what caused us to code it like this at first (I also believed it was fed from the left side tank).

I am not really sure what you are talking about. There was no update.

Just change that in the preferences?

Nah, we don´t believe in streamlining the opinions on our forums or censorship (as long as people stay withing the framework of a civilized discussion that isn´t rated R). Alles Gute, Jan

@Ian I know you well from the "old" times and I value your feedback and opinion! In our defense I can only add that a lot of things were in flux and changing, and therefore we had to take back/amend some things we initially planned and announced. I get it when you say that we initially said X but then later did X+Y... sometimes plans don´t survive contact with reality and have to be amended. It is unfortunate that you did not receive the updated notice of the limited time frame and I can understand if you refrain from purchasing again - although I must say that I will miss your contribution and always great feedback on the forums. Cheers, Jan

Yes, you have to go to the DEFAULT X-PLANE weight and balance menu, scroll all the way down and then you can set a "de-icing holdover time" - the plane will stay free of snow, ice and frost for the time you specify. This is like it works on real aircraft, too. Sometimes the hold-over time runs out while you wait in line to take-off and then you have to go back to the pad and do it all over again

Hello belevezero, we do not have any dedicated custom code for the toe brakes in the IXEG 737. If they work on the other aircraft, they should also work on this one. You have to make sure that the hydraulic pressure for the brakes is available, though. Also make sure that you have not selected a custom control profile for the 737 that might have different assignments for your pedal axis. One surefire thing to check what is going on is to display the DATA OUT numbers for "gear and brakes" to the screen, you can then see the value for brakes go from 0.0 to 1.0 if you have mapped everything correctly. Cheers, Jan

I believe you - it is just the "art controls modified" that is weird. One last thing you could try is to update your GPU drivers to the latest certified...and you have no overclock running, right?

Icing.
