Flying this weekend the CRJ200 v1.4 in the tutorial Salamanca-Valencia, with HDR in xplane10. No retouch at all.

Yes.. I wanted to know if this is only an issue of my computer or other people have it.

INCREDIBLE WORK FROM PHILIPP. I was testing this weekend and has to say that it a pleasure work with him!

Have seen that in NON-HDR mode they are there... BUT in HDR mode they are gone. Same to you?

Hi! I don't know if in versions before was there.. but today I was looking at the cockpit of the CRJ200 and saw something odd..... It look like plastic!!!!! So I investigated.. and I don't see the specular fx!! it is gone!! and I have the pixel shader on and extreme resolution textures. I want to know if that happens to you also. My graphic card is an Nvidia 580. Seems that also have a problem of drivers with real shadows.

Philipp will look for the problem...

Ok.. when you report the bug (if any) please give us the exact steps to reproduce it. That helps a lot. Thanks.

the more information you give the better we can track the issue. But try to open the xml file of the sid star folder in jrollonplanes (KDTW.xml) look for the SID you look for and see if the numbers of the runways are correct there. If not then the problem is because Navigraph and should be reported.

I think Philipp said something about squadbox long time ago. But I think it was fixed. Not by the CRJ.. but Vatsim. Because when something doesn't work.. it doesn't mean it is because the CRJ even other planes works. Maybe as described Philipp one day, the plugin used parts of code that didn't interact with other addoms because being smaller than the cRJ. When the CRJ comes is is like a big truck going to a strait street. If the conflict plugin "parked" not good, then maybe other little cars (addoms) could pass, but not the truck (CRJ). Is it Squadbox related with xpfsuipc? I think xpfsuipc was fixed. Well Philipp understand better than me, because it is programming stuff. Pd: by the way.. I don't use Vatsim, but yes I fly in IVAO and the plane loads perfectly well with IVAP in IVAO.

I don't know if for this update 1.4, will be any calculation of Descent point. For sure we want to complete the fms as much as possible. But things takes time, and we think is more important to complete a holding page (that was ok but this one is better) than the start of descent, that can be calculated with the formula I put in the tutorial. But as said, we want to make vnav advisories in the future. Thanks

do you have the textures at extreme resolution? If there is any issue about more blug textures in xp10 it is related to xplane10. Maybe would be good to report to Ben Supnik.

hello! I have been testing with the lastest 10 beta version. and.. 1. GPU is definitely there... you have to put parking brakes. 2. unsure misc. 1. Engines. Other user reported. Austin touched the jet engines and redefined a bit. I have been testing with it.. before and in this new version. I could say is more like the real aircraft. This aircraft is know as "the rocket" an in the first stages of climb is very powerful, BUT I have been testing it to reach altitudes, and MACH speeds and it is the same as before. It takes a 35.000 not so easy (it is a mid range plane) and it reaches MACH 0.82 like the xplane 9 version. So I like this new engines. 2. Can you post an image please? Thanks!

Really the first news about this I hear. Didn't know there was a head motion plugin out there. Sorry, I cannot help you in this one. The only I know is from pilot view.. it has a noise movement linked to engines I believe.

Hi! Yes.. Austin modified the jet simulation.. and broke somethings in xplane10. I am waiting to have a stabilized xplane10 version to start working on that, because I could make things go ok, but then Laminar could modify it again.. and then break everything back again. I recomend you for now to put inside planemaker in engine area, the critical altitude of 25,000 feet. I have to be playing with the number for sure.. but there is the clue to work with.

If you remove the object from plane maker you cannot see that object, so you wont see those white glasses. Ensure you save the file.

Hello! I had another user with same problem. It is an issue of hardware-drivers of the graphic card of your computer. The only solution, is to update drivers or change hardware. For now you can play with it if just go to planemaker, load the plane and standard menu - misc objects, go to second tab (objects 2) and hit the clear button inside the cockpit_Transparencia.obj (the last one). And save the plane (please make a backup of the original one. if you still see the problem, just clear all the "Glass" type objects in plane maker and save. Hope it can fix your problem. Of course this is a patch. Not the real solve, that comes updating drivers or changing hardware. Have a nice year!

Maybe.. don't know.. Philipp is in, of course, but with that bird is needed more than 1 programmer I guess, because the ammount of work is huge. Also has to see how is the product from Aerosoft if they release it. With the CRJ200 we have made an step forward, so making a 320 with default systems like the 747 I made for xplane 10 wouldn't be good. Well we will see. What I like of this Jetstream is that you don't have any FMS so, you have to fly the plane manually following the routes watching the HSI, etc... but also like the shape of the plane. Well.. I will start working on it in January... if I can find good manuals and numbers to fill in plane maker.

For now the 320 is frozen until I have a clear idea of how to do it in programming the systems. It is the most complex plane so far.

Hi! After thinking a lot, trying to know what plane to make by my own (with Philipp I will do other also more complicated), I think I finally found one that I like. O course I always look for those planes that are not so complicated but a joy to fly. I discovered the PMDG Jetstream 41 and love it. But I don't want ot repeat the work. Not because I could not do what they did, but because always would be comparison between both planes. I like more the 31/32 version because is shorter, and as you know with my planes I usually like to make small planes. Of course if there is no other project with this plane or the 41 already started (I looked for one and didn't saw it). It is needed info to make it better. All the documentation possible. Detailed pictures specially of cockpit. Overhead, circuit breaker and back panels or back cockpit. Ceiling of the cockpit.. Details of landing gears.. etc. Hope you like. Of course if the project goes ahead because no other competitor, I cannot say anything of time finishing. Not drawn a vertex. Thanks!

ahhh!! the external plugins!! I think most of the bugs people find are because external issues not related with the CRJ... Ok... good you found it!

Try to load first the Cessna with engines off, and then load the crj. Maybe there is a variable in xplane that is making it start. Also load it with engines running and then without. We will takea look.

Do you have 1.3.1? There was a hotfix in 1.3 because fuel levers was not totally in down position. Maybe that is the problem.

Well, if it is possible in future it will be done. If I don't remember bad, it was related to the air conditioning. Something difficult to simulate, unless we can take control of peoples air conditioning installation in their rooms. But I have a little idea. Well we will see. Thanks.

Incredible work!!

what is not fixed is the reflection of the display lights in cockpit in HDR mode. The problem is reported time ago. It is because the calibration of 3D internal lights, are different between HDR and NON-HDR.
