um... no?

if it'd be so, then it should cost you nothing to sponsor him that subscription.

V12, can you sponsor me a subscription so I don't have to pay it :mrgreen:

3D branch
The engine scheme has been totally reworked. The entire design of the FADEC is new now, to work with the new performance calculations I did with the engine... and its actually working so far.

- Also, added the proper simulation of surface droop when hydraulic power loses - this will be on the reworked FDM only.

The ability to modify the location/size of the throttle detents will be aded to the new design.
3D branch is considered unstable. Known issues
- Alpha floor does not work
- Not all engine parameters are working
- IAE engines do not work

Do not report these issues - they are intended - as the entire FADEC is being rewritten.

I will be resolving this one by one as I continue to simulate the new FADEC system, the old has been entirely removed.

-dev and fgaddon are of course unaffected- and it will be merged when the code is stable and well tested only.

EDIT: made the list smaller :D

Kind Regards,
Josh

Try use SimBrief to create flightplan, it will use airways, then in FG with A320 You can use flightplan prepared in the SB on one click in the MCDU. I did not tested airways, but it shoul work.

Hi,
I reinstalled FG and the A320-family. FG asked me if I wanna change the graphic settings so it fits best with the A320. I accepted the change but did some graphic changes later. Now I wanna change it back to the best for the A320. Is there a way to open that window again?

I would also love to create some liveries. Some Months/Years ago all the livery development were stopped due to the remodeling. How far is the model development yet?

If the dialog doesn't pop up, the settings are as good or even better as what the dialog would set.

The model nears completion. One engine variant is still missing. Also some FDM changes that have to come with the new model.
In the end, it comes, when it comes...
(if you want to have a sneekpeak, look at the 3D branch ;-) )

The situation is as mentioned by merspieler, PW PP is nearing completion but halted back due to a small but rather nasty issue we found with the fuselage UV map around the doors. Josh is currently working on some non mesh related improvements to IAE so that's broken in the 3D branch where the new model is available.

The paintkit for the new model is available along with liveries in a sparate repository.

WARNING: Due to the UV map issue mentioned, the fuselage 3D model along with textures and the paintkit will be updated this evening, so do not use the model and paintkit from before the incoming commit to paint unless you are willing to amend it later(might not be trivial)
This situation was completely unexpected but since we're still not in master and have few new liveries it was acceptable to fix this problem.

Thanks for the quick response!
I was confused because some details are not shown such as dust on displays and panel light. Also illuminated words are very blurry.
I tried Rembrandt and ALS.

I got back to the graphics window after reinstalling FG. But this is the result:

As you can see some parts are missing.
It gets even worse when its dark and lights are turned on:

Any idea? :idea:

not without knowing more details... which version of FG are you running? your profile says you're still running 2017.3.1 which is very old and EoL...
"You get more air close to the ground," said Angalo. "I read that in a book. You get lots of air low down, and not much when you go up."
"Why not?" said Gurder.
