Captain Sim 767 1.1 Out

Featured Replies

More liveries, winglets, sunshades in vc, substantive fixes, too. We'll try 'er out and see what got fixed (for me).

 

 

 

Please let us know. I've been on the fence about purchasing this since I already own the Level-D 767. Do you know what fixes are in 1.1?

Tim_Capps,Thanks for the notice on the CS 767. I was still debating on when I would buy the updates to this one. I'm still hoping they will accurately model the sounds for each different engine, but also important to me will be accurate ECIAS readouts that correspond to each of the engine types used on 767's similar to how this was provided for the 757s.

I am flying it right now and I find improvements that look very promising, but hard to say much on one flight. There is a cool sun visor that snaps in different places, the night lighting is further improved, and the fuel gauge on the overhead is easier to read. Separate lighting effects for left and right seats. The jet sound being heard when the engine is off is fixed. There are also more liveries (although still no official USA ones; Dave Sweetman's Delta is looking real good, though, whenever that is ready).Yes, the upper EICAS now changes depending on whether you have a GE or a PW engined-model.About the only negative things I have to say at this point is that I'm going to have to adjust engine sound (too loud), and I still don't have an altitude chime.The integration with the CS Wx Radar didn't come through; promised for the next update. Another graphics touch: overheads open in the cabin. They have also provided two flights, one ready for take-off, which is nice for those times when you just need a quick hit off the 767 crack pipe. The manuals look overhauled, at least in part. Haven't done a page-by-page comparison.

 

 

 

Funny you mention loud engines. I always thought the level-d engines were a little on the loud side too! But then again, its a jet engine. Sounds promising though from what you have mentioned. Ah choices!

I appreciate everyone who has provided immediate feedback on the 767. When 767 1.00 first came out, it was the very first time I purchased an addon plane without reading any reviews or watching for updates. When I pick up the 1.1 or later, I might still want to tweak the sounds a bit according to what I've read so far. I thought the original GE sounds from the cockpit were loud too. I'm wondering if anyone has tried to fit any of the sound packages by TSS or Synchro-Soft to the CS 767.

I won't be buying this until they've fixed the 757. How they can release and expect people to buy the 767 when the 757 still has problems is beyond me.

I just ran the 767 1.1 update. So far I like the changes I am seeing. For a few reasons though, the sound files are a bit unusual as I transition from idle to full-thrott. The good thing is we can change up things on any day of the week to be satisfied.

Yes, this looks like a significant upgrade, with some polishing, some fixes and some more candy. Oh well, now I get do all those long test flights all over again and scrap a lot of writing.

Are you talking about version 4.3? While I'm sure there are still some problems, as all products do, with this version the 757 is much better than when first released, especially with the addition of navigraph support. I don't get to use it that much though, because my main FSX installation (Which works best for me) is FSX SP1 on Windows XP. My Vista installation has SP2/Acceleration. Fir some reason SP2 on my XP system causes a performance issue. I'm sure I could resolve it with a fresh install, but I'm not prepared to do that unless I really have too.

Thanks

The CS757 v4.3 is my favorite FSX Boeing.It flies beautifully and if you have a high-end computer it's a real pleasure to see how much details and work were involved in producing such an addon.Apart from some minor bugs, the V4.3( long-expected though) fixed all the known issues.I don't own the 767 but I guess it's a good product too.

I simply replaced the sounds for GE RR and PW with newly purchased TSS sound packages. For me, these sound files are more aligned with power settings. The engine sounds from the cockpit are still too loud but I can make adjustments. Yes, it cost me an extra $25 dollars for the GE and PW. I was already using a replacement RR package for the 757 Captain. This is just a suggestion.

How is the TSS sound package for the 757?
