May 3, 201016 yr Moderator I just got the J41 a little over a week ago a was wondering if some of it features I listed below would be included in the NGX. I really found the ability to either turn off or turn down the refresh rates on both the capt and co-pilots side of the a/c a great way to improve frame rates compared to the default settings which caused to much FPS hit on my system.1. Will the NGX have a similiar ramp manager that we can use to open doors, place chocks, etc.? I really like the way it is done on the J41 and though it would be a really nice feature to see on the 737.2. Can the NGX also have an in cockpit load manager like the J41? I found this to be most usefull and was a lot easier than haing to access it in a menu prior to starting FSX.3. If the NGX has a config manager like the J41 can use please include the option to either reduce the refresh rates or turn off the EADI and EHSI for the copilot? I turned the copilots off in the J41 and get a lot better performance than having them on in both sides of the a/c and since I always fly on the left side I have no need for them on the right side if it saves that many FPS like it does in the J41.4. Lastly and I know I have asked this before, please include the VC rain effects in the NGX. It was really neat to be on the ramp in the J41 during a storm and actually see rain on the wind shield. I know that the camp is split on those who hate the rain effects and those who love them like me, so maybe they could be handled as an option that you can either enable or disable, like the icing effects are on the J41.While on the ramp it really added a nice effect, rather than just seeing the lines of rain comming down outside. i know that it was mentioned that the rain effects may not be visible while in flight in real life so I was wondering if maybe they could be prgrammed to turn off after reaching a certain speed of say 130 kts, or have them linked to the landing gear, ie. gear down rain effect on, gear up rain effect off? If not, I would still rather have them than not, or at least have them as a user option to turn on/off.Regards,Sean Campbell Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
May 4, 201016 yr Commercial Member Sean,1-3. Yeah, that stuff is all going to be in the airplane, no external apps.4. This caused graphics corruption for a lot of people on the J41, I don't know that we'll do it. I'll ask if it can be an option though.

That would be wonderful if the rain could be a user option so that everyone will be pleased. Although it wouldn't be a make or break option for me since I will CERTAINLY buy this plane either way, it is the one option that I would love to see most after re-experiencing it again with the J41. I forgot how much I miss that effect from FS9 and the J41 brought it back for me, to the point that if I am going to b eflying in RW weather I will now almost have no choice but to pick the J41 for the flight.Performance wise, even on my old system, the rain doesn't seem to cause any perf hit or graphic anomalies.Sean Campbell Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
