Gibt ein Update auf 1.7.

=== Release highlights & New features ===

• Implemented two-pilot shared cockpit
  • Please review the included CL650 Shared Cockpit Quick Start Guide PDF
• Added support for X-Plane 12 for all platforms
• VHF COM frequency formats shouldn't allow omitting leading '1' digit
  • You will now need to enter the leading '1' digit in radio frequency entries on the TUNE page. Leaving out the decimal point is still allowed though.
• DES ADVISORY
  • If the flight plan doesn't contain any suitable descent constraints from which the FMS could anchor a descent, it will no longer give you a "TOD" point. It will instead give you a green "DES" circle on the flight plan, with a green "DES ADVISORY" in the MFD VNAV window. This is just the FMS taking a rough stab at guessing approximately where you should start your descent, so that you end up 1,500 ft AGL at 10nm from the destination airport. It will not:
  1. give you a vertical deviation from this path,
  2. capture VPATH
  3. give you a TOD indication, or aural vertical track alert
  • This is it basically taking a guess, in absence of more accurate data
• Remove custom atmospheric model on XP12
  • On X-Plane 12, the custom CL650 atmospheric model has been removed, since X-Plane 12 now implements temperature effects on altimetry natively. Consequently, there is no option to disable temperature effects in X-Plane 12 when flying online anymore. These effects are always on. Be sure to use the latest xPilot betas when flying XP12 on Vatsim to make sure your altimeter is being reported correctly.
• MIC selector should enable audio even if monitoring pushbutton is deselected
  • Even when you didn't push in the volume control knob on a radio, if your MIC selector is set to that radio, you will still hear the audio.
• HUD shouldn’t show selected speed in FLC or FPM in VS
  • The HUD FMAs will no longer show the speed target for FLC or the FPM target for VS. The real HUD doesn't show them, so we removed them.
• Don't show ACT FPLN on EFIS when CDU is on SEC FPLN pages
  • When SEC FPLN, SEC LEGS or any secondary flight plan-related path is displayed on the CDU, the on-side PFD & MFD will show the secondary flight plan on their map displays only.

Morgen gibt es von Cockpitlyrics ein Preview auf die Dash 7 von Pilots. Sicher ein interessantes Flugzeug. Die Frage ist, welche Qualität das Addon aufweist.

Es wird vielleicht mal ein Tool geben, was das automatisch macht. Man gibt den Airport an und das Tool zieht da vielleicht eine unsichtbare Textur drüber, oder so. Also es gab schon einige Sachen. Das Problem haben ja alle XP User mit den XP11 Flughäfen im XP12.

Quote from Hueypilot

Ich date meinen Flughafen selber ab.

Gibt es da Anleitungen dazu? Wie bekommt man diese Shader auf die Gebäude und Bodentexturen?

Leider immer noch kein Synthetic Vision für das G1000.

Für Wolken und Wetter wird man keine Addons mehr benötigen. Auch wurde so die Immersion gesteigert, durch die Effekte (Licht, Wolken, Regen etc.).

Jetzt werde ich auch öfters im XP12 unterwegs sein und freue ich auf neue Flugzeuge für den Sim.

so Fehler habe ich auch noch nicht gehabt. Die Temperatur stimmt eigentlich immer.

RC6 ist aus meiner Sicht das beste Update bisher. Die Performance ist schon fast ideal. Bei voller Bewölkung wird die GPU Last kaum beeinträchtigt. Auch durch Lichtefekte nicht mehr.

Gibt RC 6.

Jetzt gibt es RC4, aber bei mir braucht jetzt die GPU mehr Leistung. Die Helligkeit der Cockpits wurde verbessert.

Aber sieht so aus, dass eine RTX 2080 bei WQHD für XP12 nicht mehr reicht. Bei XP11 ist das kein Problem mit der GPU Leistung.

sieht aus wie der FS2004 oder der FSX.

Die Immersion bei Regen und schlechten Wetter finde ich sehr gut.

Schau dir die Größe einer RTX 4090 an und was die an Strom verbraucht. Mit Wasserkühlung könnte man da noch was machen ab der RTX 5090 usw.

Aber auch da wird der Stromverbrauch irgendwann extrem werden.

Bei der CPU wird es dann 100 Kerne geben, die aber keiner für die Software vernünftig einsetzen kann.

Alleine für die Klimamodelle wird es neue Techniken (z.B. Quantencomputer) geben, die es mal nach vielen Jahren in den privaten Haushalt schaffen.

In 10 bis 20 Jahren wird man sich wohl nur noch eine leichte 3D Brille aufsetzen und ist in einer 16K Welt die sehr realitätsnah ist. Wobei man da auf andere Techniken warten muss. Die Steigerung der CPU und GPU Leistungsfähigkeiten scheinen bald am Ende zu sein.

Und trotzdem hat im Jahr 1985 ein User die selbe Freude daran empfunden, wie einer im Jahr 2022 oder vielleicht 2040. Aber die Immersion ist natürlich erheblich gesteigert worden.

beim MSFS hattest du schon sehr oft die Schnauze voll.

Aber es gibt auch Orthos und X Europe. Und dann sieht die Welt schon anders aus.
