Yes, post new pics... You are doing an incredible thing...

Wellcome! If you mean to move the displays outside of the simulator window, to see them separately on a different display. Than the answer will be this one: We are planing to release an SDK for an aircraft, that will give you this feature. So the answer is yes.

Yupe, the development of it will save lot's of time for the future, but without any changes in code it's impossible to use for other aircrafts. We are not going to implement any state-of-aircraft feature for CRJ. There will be to basic options either to start with engine running or cold and dark. When you start with engine running your aircraft will be fully ready to takeoff, except FMC. For the FMC the only feature is saving and loading flight plans. And... don't forget CRJ is a short to medium range aircraft.

Is the display graphics made with OpenGL or generics?

I don't really thing there is such a dataref in x-plane. I think the best way to do that is to share third dataref and depends on switch position set your dataref to adf bearing or vor bearing. I don't think it's going to be a problem to code. So good luck

I will try to answer your question. At the moment we are testing everything on Mac and Win. When we have beta, i will recompile everything for Linux and we will test it there. P.S. I'm pretty sure that on linux CRJ-200 will show better performance, than on any other OS. So don't worry, we will have linux version.

You are really hardcore!!! I have tried fseconomy few months ago, but at the moment don't have enough spare time for that.

Cool!!! Really good idea, and great work on scenery, how many people do you have?

me too!!! hahahaha ;D So do I :

Ok.. I will try to clear some things. In CRJ's FMS we will be using Navigrath navigation data base for everything (NDB, VOR, VOR/DME, ILS, FIX, AIRWAYS, SID, STAR etc.). It won't be in anyway connected with X-Plane navdata. If someone don't want the autopilot to fly the SID or STAR... than you can just select the SID or STAR you need to fly. This way FMS will automaticaly turn your radios to the nearest VORs so you can pay more attention to flying than tunning the radios(and on final it will automaticaly tune the ILS frequency and set the coure for the runway)... It will draw the SID or STAR on MFD, so you can monitor your fly... flight director will be showing what you have to do to perform the SID or STAR... and so on... So if someone want to do it manually, than do it... but remember about RNAV approaches, some of them you can't perform without FMS... That's why we decided to choose AIRAC, because with default navdata it's impossible to make this plane as real as possible.

You also should know that for the next project A320 we will be using the same data... so you in the future you will have to update only once and you will have navigation data for both products

спасибо ;D Thanks

Thank you for information John. 1. We will fix it soon. Really good information for programming systems. 2. We already have a delay for 1 second with all buttons, but because of simulator timing sometimes it happens faster.

Looks good! Hope you have refined your texturing skills

It's up to you to decide to buy it or not, but be sure that with generics and default instruments you can make only 20% of real airbus!

May be you can add this one to the list... http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/8/85/Transaero_Boeing_747-200_Sharm_el_Sheikh.jpg

I'm developing plugin for CRJ on MacBook Pro with 521 video and 4g of RAM. So you don't have to worry. )))

I will try to guess it logically... We have four columns... with the same gauges in a different rows... So the main number is FOUR... I guess it's 4 engines...

Inside the FMS you will have an additional menu for setting payload, refueling, etc. We don't want to create external application for doing that like it's done on MSFS add-ons. It would take long because you need mac, linux and windows version.

You can get access to CRJ plugin using UDP protocols or with your own plugin. So take a look at X-Plane SDK... they will be mixed together. For the second question: FMS will be like real one with AIRAC database. So holdings, SID, STAR, fuel prediction, etc is simulated. Right now, the systems are working like in real one aircraft, except some special failures, but that will be added in future updates of the plane.

May be 2 months after the release we are going to release SDK for this aircraft, with ability to get and set displays, LEDS, position of the buttons from and to the sim. So no problem for that... If you have questions - ask, I will try answer as soon as possible.

I'll replay as a programmer of systems... yes it has real start up and real shutdown... and you will see it soon...

Unfortunately, nothing new... The main aim at the moment is to finish CRJ-200. So I can say that you can expect airbus only at summer 2010.

I will try to reply for Javier, if he doesn't mind that. So step by step. Now it's necessary to finish the CRJ-200 first, than Airbus A320... than may be A380 will be the future project. And also I would like to explain one thing. A320 is mainly my project and right now we work in cooperation with Javier, I'm programming systems for CRJ-200 and he makes me the 3d of airbus. P.S.: It's a great amount of work to make an airbus, because of complicated systems.

FMS is going to be 96% as real one... plus some extra stuff for simulation.
