....ahhhh I got it! It was that lua-script (Ice simulation) that was hijacking that effect. I removed it. I already had the suspicion. So all good, works great now. Thanks very much

Thank you. That's weird....i'm using the DATA OUT "ice accretion 2" and made a quick movie to show you. You will see that after applying the function, both the lwing and rwing start increasing again and also the weight of the B733: At the start there is already some amount having built up, you can see this in the last line on the top-left corner. Do you think this could be something I should report to Laminar?

Hmmm...does it really completely stop? What i saw is that it resets the actual ice (based on the value lwing and rwing) but then it starts building up again immediately after having applied it. Perhaps it is possible that it builds up slowlier but it doesn't stop. Are you sure that on your side it does completely stop buidling-up during the time you entered? Which dataset do you use to check that? But if that was really the case, I would have to fill a bug-report to Laminar. I am just surprised why it works differently on your side. I'm using the latest beta 12.0.8b1. Thanks again.

Hi again. I tried that function (under "weight & balance") and gave 20 minutes under "Holdover Time (Ground de-icing)" and clicked "done". But unfortunately it had no impact...the weight of the aircraft kept increasing right after applying that function. I also tried the flywithLua-script "icing simulator" that should work with XP12 but that didn't work as well. The only way i could get rid of that ice/snow was to press a few times the "GRD TEST" of the wing-anti-ice until the datarefs "lwing/rwing" went back to zero. Do you think you could explain a bit much in depth what we have to do exactly? Perhaps demonstrating it in a short video?

Thank you, i just discovered that function that I was absolutely not aware of! I will try to play around with it

Thank you for your feedback. But as far as I know, there is no default anti-ice function that will remove the snow from the wings when on ground...or perhaps i missed that? EDIT: ok solved (see my other question and your answer. Looks like i learned something new)

Hi there I wanted to take off during snowy/icy conditions and there seems to be a problem. Because of the ice-accumulation, the weight of the aircraft was so high, that it was impossible to lift off. And as far as i know there is no option to de-ice the acf before take off? So my question is: what can we do to take off safely during such conditions? I saw that this was already an issue years ago:

Hi there Many thanks for the newest update. My first flight was departing from ENGM during snowy-conditions. And i observed that during loading the aircraft via the new menu, the ZFW started to increase and never end. It stopped as soon as i put the weather to normal conditions again. It may be because of ice/snow-accumulation. Would it be possible to prevent the preflight-menu to be affected by the increasing ZFW due to the accumulation of ice/snow? That would help catching the right ZFW as desired But of course i don't know if in real life it would be the same, in which case this wouldn't be a "bug" of course. So more a request if something can be done here, although XP simulates the increase of weight during snow. Thank you.

All right, thank you @Cameron

Hi there First time that happens...i just wanted to download the newest version. But there is simply no download-link (anymore) in my account. It has disappeared. Even when i click on "details" there is no download-link. Tried it with MS Edge as well to be sure. Same problem: no clickable Link to download the IXEG. I would appreciate if you could take a look at my account. Thank you very much.

Hi there With the newest version for XP12 i cannot assign a go-around to any of my yoke-buttons. I cannot find the related dataref "ixeg/733/autopilot/TOGA" as mentionned in the documentation. I tried to assign "N1...something" but nothing happened when i pressed it during a go-around procedure, although i can press it at take off and the throttle will go to take-off-power. I am quite confused and would very much appreciate any help. Thank you.

Really? That means they sold even more copies than of XP11 that was very popular? That sounds really like great news if that is true :-)

Ah...makes sense. I wasn't sure if we could use that CG. But great, thanks so much!

And also: do you guys have an advice about the trim? At take off the CG is always shown as 22% CG and the trim as 4.2 on the FMC. Do we perhaps have to change something there ?

@Litjan Thank you very much for your great answer Jan and for the explanations about the rotation-behaviour, that i will have to train a little bit in that case ;-) If you could also share your yoke-settings that would also be great. Many thanks.
