A year or two back I expressed an issue regarding the relative smoothness which was dissatisfactory and did reduce the immersion factor. Jan's video on the upcoming update 1.3 I guess, highlights the new features which will be implemented and needless to say its just outstanding and extensively complements the efforts, love and dedication which the developers have towards making this aircraft. On Jan's advice I did try the new gizmo V20, in one word to sum it up, just brilliant. Stutters, Gsync flickering and all the issues which I had is gone. Ben has probably incorporated some sort of magic, it totally is in accordance with Laminar's vision of a stutter free simulation experience. A huge thanks to the entire team of IXEG, Tkyler, Jan, Ben, Cameron and everyone else involved with this. When something commendable is done I believe it should be appreciated and that's the purpose of this post. BEST 737 EVER. If there is V2 in future please count me in, I will try to be the first person to purchase that. Its my belief that there is nothing wrong to charge for a mega update and we would wholeheartedly welcome something like that in future to keep this masterpiece alive for the future versions of Xplane. That said I hope the team and everybody stays healthy in these uncertain times and thanks again. Take Care

Hi, I was trying to fly the saab 340 but when I loaded it the gizmo console popped up with this error.

Long ago, I got the LES DC-3 as a birthday present from my brother, his X-A account (he doesn't even have X-Plane), his mailadress for activation of course (why not)... Now I purchased the C310 from my own account and the trouble began: I can't activate it and got not the slightest clue how to get rid of the registration of the obsolete DC-3 (hope the new one will finally be available) and "other user" from my machine... What do I have to do with the license ID X-A sent me? Is this a ticket for an audition ? (something different than the automatic response without any further support... ) The Gizmo DRM might not be the worst, but when you get in trouble it.... Thanks for your attention and please be so kind to apologize my terrible english. nevertrustasmilincat

Hello, I just purchased the Saab 340 and can't activate it. X-Plane 11.20b4 & Win10 (latest) Attached is the GizmoLog a screenshot of what it looks like in the sim. Looking in the forums I couldn't find any similar issues. Also can't click anything on the Gizmo menus (due to activation I guess?) Here's what I tried so far: Installed FlyWithLua (Normally I don't have it either) Updated Gizmo from here (found it on their FB page) https://www.dropbox.com/s/aa01uo781dihgf0/Gizmo64.plugin-18.02.27.0200.zip?dl=1 Contacted LES on FB and they sent me here. Okidoo let me know if I should try something else. CL GizmoLog.txt

While I wait for my support ticket to be addressed, can anyone shed some light on why I am receiving Machine ID Locked activation error in XP10 but the same products in XP11 on the same machine continue to activate OK. Is it an outdated Gizmo version in XP10? Is it the Windows 10 Creator's Update?

Hello the Team Being flying uphill, when I clicked on the "VERT SYNC" button on the pilot's yoke (at the right off the yoke), a Gizmo window opened announcing an error : "error: 2218.243: Run(xp): main: [string "JGX.1.Saab.00.lua.aes"]:19547: attempt to call global 'initASIbug' (a nil value)" Then the autopilot did not work, as all of the various autopilot selection (above the center panel). When I deactivated and reactivated the autopilot, it remained OFF and a new Gizmo error was generated : "error: 2453.911: Run(cmd): AP_engage_disengage_OnHold: [string "JGX.1.Saab.00.lua.aes"]:18713: attempt to call global 'initASIbug' (a nil value)" The flight being no longer possible, I left the SAAB 340A and X-Plane in flight In attachment is a zipped file that contains the Log.txt and the GizmoLog.txt.The two errors appear at the end of the GizmoLog.txt, the Log.txt appears to be normal I have had several times this type of error with the VERT SYNC button..

When you select your global airport, every single airport has an image that looks like this (attached). Where are these stored? Where can I access overview images that are this simple (no annotations, only two colors, etc) if not on X-Plane? Cheers

Hello, An attempt to enter coroute causes soft crash every time. I use SIMBRIEF .FPL file. Is this simbrief file incompatible? Thanks, Dan EGCCEGLL.fpl GizmoLog.txt Log.txt

*Solved* Hi I'm trying to map the FD switches to the Goflight MCP pro I can't use the custom command toggle as it is a physical on/off switch as in the real aircraft sent it: ixeg/733/MCP/mcp_plt_fd_act it looks like a 0 will turn the switch off and a 1 will turn the switch on. It works for a few cycles then xplane crashes. Any ideas? edit: Tested again, I think it's something to do with Gizmo a console window popup has the following: 690.634 Callback_Dref_Hooked_setDataf: mcp_plt_fd_act_OnWrite: 6.3910641622945e-312 Log.txt GizmoLog.txt

I was flying KATL to KLGA last night . Everything was going great until T/D. Since VNAV does not calculate decent path correctly I had use speed brakes to maintain correct decent profile, on top of that kids playing in the room = miss approach. That's fine I can turn around and try again but as soon as you enter new STAR GIZMO FMS crash , again and again and fms is dead. So i hit reload and its back to working state, after that I was able to enter STAR. No my issues didn't end here, Glide Scope stopped working! This is super annoying when FMS crashes and it never ever happened to me with other planes. So if you want to fly this bird without issues you need to program FMS and don't add/change points or STARS in the middle of the flight . I decided I will not fly IXEG for now until FMS Gimzo crashed are fixed . I am not attaching any logs since with problem was reported already . Just my two cents ... Thank you Version 1.0.3

Hey! Gizmo seems to crash when you enter a new Cruise Lvl in the CRZ page on the FMS. First the plane wanted to Descend (I guess because the next waipoint was still at FL230) and when I hit VS mode to climb Gizmo crashed. Log is attached. LG Florian GizmoLog.txt

Hello all, I know this topic has been issued earlier, but I want to start a new one because I'm experiencing it right now. When I start the Saab, I get no audio, all the doors are open, and the propellor has a strange look when it spins. I did contact support, just a few minutes ago, but wasn't able to attach the logs, so I try to throw the bone in here as well. I attached the screenies, and added the gizmo & x-plane logs... Please keep in mind that all my joysticks are unplugged (my Track-IR isn't) Please help me to get this baby flying in all the glory she deserves! Thank you very much! GizmoLog.txt Log.txt

I just bought the Saab 340 a few days ago and I am having some serious issues with it cashing X-Plane. It seems that the Gizmo console window pops up and then my sim crashes. This can be while I am on the ground, during a flight or when trying to land. There is no specific time period when it all crashes. All of my other aircraft work fine with the exception of the Saab 340. I fly on FSE alot and it is really frustrating trying to complete jobs when my sim crashes and I have to start over again. Attached is my log file from X-Plane and Gizmo64. Let me know what else is needed. I am running the latest version of the 340, X-Plane and Gizmo. Log.txt GizmoLog.txt

I am learning more and more about Gizmo. I have been experimenting with a sound file. In the past I bought a sound package of Synchrosoft for FSX and I am trying to convert this to X-Plane. But there is a difference in the sounds via Gizmo/X-Plane and FSX. The FSX-sounds have a higher volume than X-Plane, but the volume differences differs at the different gain values. This causes an other sound character in X-Plane (the lower sounds are more pronounced than in X-Plane). Is there somebody wo experienced the same difference? Is there an easy method to compensate this differences? For FSX there is FS sound studio which I used to understand the settings of the FSX soundfiles. Is there a similar program/plugin for X-Plane?

There are some items* mentioned in the Quick Start guide, e.g., Bleed Valve reset, that might be nice to have on the Gizmo checklist. Otherwise I'm looking at the Gizmo and one I wrote out. Be lovely to have everything in one place. Just saying... BTW, had my first couple of full flights (VOR nav and ILS approaches) where everything went textbook. I love this aircraft. And, oh, the sounds—the best on any plane I've flown in X-Plane. Looking forward to the better radio tuning UI and having the Garmin (able to do real SIDs and STARs) Brad *Bleed value reset, Main Inv to "on", Standby Pitot on, RMI set

I have owned this FINE aircraft for about a year now. I never had problems with re-installs before (different motherboard or replaced hardware). Went to install today after new motherboard replacement and I get the following error: This is very foreign to me and I honestly have no clue where or how to solve this problem? Any help is GREATLY appreciated . . . . Thanks!

The X-Aviation watermark won't go away on any of my x-aviation aircraft. In the CRJ the panels are also dark. I'm not given the option to re-register them either. I was thinking it may be a possible Gizmo issue? Everytime I tell Gizmo to update it gives me this error "Repository error. Try again later: [string "..."]:2:unexpected symbol near '<' " Not sure if this has anything to do with my issues. Anyone come across this and found a fix or have a suggestion? Thanks

I purchased the CRJ 200 at on or about September 6, so am pretty sure it's the latest - that there have been no mods since I purchased it. Had the pitch oscillation problem severely enroute TJSJ - TNCM - about 30 minutes into the flight, at level flight at 15,000 ft. I read that the install package included a new .acf file and that would eliminate the problem. I backed up the old .acf file and inserted the new one from user modifications. The next time I booted up the CRJ 200 I got a message titled "Activation" and text saying "Unknown Product This product cannot be activated" Philipp suggested it might be the Gizmo plug in and sure enough, when I removed it from my X-Plane 10 folder the plane booted up fine. I have no Gizmo conflicts with any of my other aircraft. Any thoughts or suggestions? Paul iMac 27 with Fusion Drive 16RAM and 2VRAM Xavion on iPad3

I consistently get a crash to desktop when trying to run 64-bit X-Plane on my Win 7 machine. The log file indicates the Gizmo plugin is responsible. I don't know what version of plugin I'm running. Where can I update to the latest?

Hello All, I am new to this forum but a long-time X-Plane user. I have a problem that (after an extensive search) I have not found addressed on the forum so far. And if I'm in the wrong area please point me to the correct one. My problem (while using a Mac Pro, 6-Core Intel Xeon, 32 GB RAM, ATI HD 5870 1024 MB) with X-Plane 10.22+ 64 bit: For some of my X-Aviation aircraft (that function with GIZMO) some of the animations have ceased to function. For example; the Cessna Corvalis, the Douglas DC-3, and the Mitsubishi Mu-2B. - For the DC-3 the yoke is not animated (but the ailerons and elevator actually do move). - For the Corvalis the stick does not move (external surfaces do move). - For the MU2 (a long-time favorite) most of the cockpit animations do not function. The yoke doesn't move, nor does the throttle/condition levers. Many of the buttons and switches fail to operate. Externally I can see elevator and rudder movement but not the ailerons. The props are not animated. All of these planes had been functioning with no problem. I do believe that they were functioning subsequent to the latest update for the MU-2 (after the corrected installer for Mac). I am unaware of any event or other updates that may have effected this. However, in each case the log.txt complains about the same problem: "dlerror:dlopen(/Volumes/B Drive/X-Plane 10/Resources/plugins/Gizmo64.plugin/64/mac.xpl, 6): Library not loaded: @executable_path/../Frameworks/libcurl.framework/Versions/A/libcurl Referenced from: /Volumes/B Drive/X-Plane 10/Resources/plugins/Gizmo64.plugin/64/mac.xpl Reason: image not found" (a complete log.txt file is attached) Also, in the cockpit I do not have GIZMO in the plugins menu and don't have the side menu for GIZMO that was there before. Also GIZMO no longer creates the GizmoLog.txt. Using the provided installer I have uninstalled and re-installed the latest MU-2 update. That was the latest aircraft to update. I contacted Cameron about this through the X-Aviation site. After a look at my log.txt file he recognized that "It looks like your frameworks library didn't install." He informed me that they had put out a re-built installer and that I should re-downloadand and re-install the MU-2. I believe that I had used that corrected installer, but I wanted to give it another try. Since my download link had expired I asked that he re-open the link so that I could ensure that, in fact, I had the latest/corrected update. That was a several days ago. Unfortunately, Cameron has not responded to that request (nor subsequent emails asking for further troubleshooting tips). Hmm.... I had also asked where the frameworks library was supposed to reside so that I could have a direct look. By the way, I have a second X-Plane installation on another hard drive. Both are acting the same with the X-Aviation/GIZMO aircraft (all other aircraft are functioning normally). So I'm stuck. Are there others with this problem, and is there a known solution? Troubleshooting suggestions? CW Log.txt
