    Maybe you can build your own «sound environment» using these Website ressources. http://jardesign.org/3d-sound-engine/ http://www.freesound.org/search/?q=aircraft&page=10#sound Alan

    What aircraft are you referring? Normally the GPS should update automatically in 10.30+. Just click on the device screen and the popup will show up. +

    Have you try this page? http://developer.x-plane.com/2014/03/new-approach-capable-gps-navigator-in-x-plane-10-30/ Alan

    The panel LIT texture should be modified accordingly (look in the «cockpit/generic» folder of your aircraft). You can make a screen capture of your actual panel and edit the LIT texture in Photoshop. Normally the LIT texture would have a name like «...night_LIT.png» added at the end. Good luck

    Hey JKW, Interesting information. I’ll check if this function could be implemented in my project. But I can’t give you any confirmation regarding the time line though. Cheers Alan

    Hi jwk, For your information, I don’t have any instrument rating so I have no experience with advanced GPS or NAV approach. Be aware that I built this panel using only generic instruments, so behaviour are based on XP coding not mine. Unfortunately I won’t be able to help you here. Maybe other users could give a try. If you found any bug or system misconception, thanks for reporting them. I’ll do my best to solve it though. The autopilot is based on the KAP140 model as stated in the read me file provided. Here the link to the manual I used. To my knowledge there is no standby mode associated to this device.http://www.talisman-illustration-design.com/turbulence/files/temp/KAP140.pdf Alan

    C172SP Wide Panel Project is now compatible with XP10.30. For the moment, I provided only the carburator version and wait for bug report. The fuel injected versions will be release later. Don’t forget to consult the ReadMe file for important info. Carburator version (v2.2) http://forums.x-plan...&showfile=18737 or http://www.talisman-illustration-design.com/turbulence/files/temp/C172SP_WidePanel_C_v2.2.zip Alan

    I agree, iMac 27" hands down. http://browser.primatelabs.com/mac-benchmarks#4 Alan

    Try to run X-Plane with all render setting to minimum first, using the same aircraft, same airport, time, weather and note your average frame rate. Then increase render setting quality gradually until your hardware gives your the desire frame rate. Try to modify one or two parameter at the time. You may need to restart X-Plane after modifying some of them though. It’s a time consuming task. Good luck Alan

    I ran some tests regarding this topic some time ago and I think X-Plane does not model very well engine performance. For exemple you can put a C172 a 30,000 ft and the engine run as good as at sea level (just a slight decrease of power output). If you find something else, just let us know. Alan

    Hi all, Just to let you know what is coming for the next update for my C172SP Wide Panel Project: New Propeller/Cone object (with Triple blade option for the constant speed prop version) So keep flying Alan

    Have your texture (.png format) ready. Open your 3D tower in AC3D. Select all polygons. Top Menu Object->Texture->Load texture then locate your texture, click Open. Top Menu Tools->Texture Coordinate Editor... Your texture should be visible with polygon overlay. Hit the (LSCM) Unwrap button (down left) to relax flat all polygons. Hit the (Remap) Front button (Up left) if you want a frontal projection. You can select polygon individually or in group and use different projection over the texture. Try it just for fun. Position/Scale polygons to your taste over the texture. Close the Texture Editor window. Finally Top Menu File->Export->X-Plane 8 Object File... Good luck Alan

    alfletcher replied to sky10's topic in Help!?!

    I think you should use Plane-Maker and try to tweak side view options under the Menu Standard/Viewpoint/View. Hope it help. Alan

    X-Plane 9 can’t handle a project so complex. Even with XP10 a 64bit version is mandatory to achieve this level of detail. Sorry. Alan
