December 10, 201015 yr Thanks for the heads up Mike.This will breath a little bit of new life into the 767 for me which I haven't flown much lately.Thanks to the Level D folks for this update. Although I always spend more time with newly purchased products, I always seem to come back to this one as (well as the PMDG MD11), which I really enjoy.Thanks, Bruce. ASEL, Instrument. KBJC, Colorado.
December 10, 201015 yr Can someone work on a DHL Air repaint for her? I realize the freighter model has not been done but it would be nice to fly with a few freighter repaints that use winglets. DHL UK, Mas Air, LAN Cargo, Absa.
December 10, 201015 yr Thanks for letting us know that the update. I was waiting for this update. Mike Keigley
December 11, 201015 yr Moderator Thanks for letting us know that the update. I was waiting for this update.Now we just need them to reopen the link to the repaints so we can have more than just ANA and the LDS default. I guess their server was getting slammed from people downloading the repaints. In fact they said that more repaints were downloaded than the actual update. Not sure why people would download the repaint for winglet versin without the update though. Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
December 11, 201015 yr Commercial Member If you own FS2Crew (Button or Voice control) for the FS9/FSX Level-D 767, make sure you read the updated instructions here to get FS2Crew working with the Winglet model.Instructions via this link:http://forum.avsim.net/topic/320772-winglet-update-from-level-d/page__pid__1890237#entry1890237Best, B.

December 11, 201015 yr Beautiful job Level-D team! She looks great. :( I still can't wait for the patch for those pesky FSX-A problems. :( Tired of Streetlights everywhere? Try MSFS DarkStreets today!
December 11, 201015 yr Moderator Well I finally got around to installing it tonight and what a treat. Its almost like a whole new a/c for free. I really love the new VC textures since I never downloaded and installed André's VC update prior to this. I am going to have to install those VC textures for the non-winglet model as well.Thanks to the LDS guys and André for all the hard work in giving us this update.

December 11, 201015 yr Beautiful job Level-D team! She looks great. :( I still can't wait for the patch for those pesky FSX-A problems. :(What are some acceleration problems? I haven't run the LDS on my FSX-A yet
December 12, 201015 yr What are some acceleration problems? I haven't run the LDS on my FSX-A yetThe engines make a "double start" during the engine start and all of the FMC performance data is dumped during this time. Quite unfortunate. There are some workarounds, but at the moment my hours are extremely limited on the LDS 763 because of the bugs. In FS9, it was almost all I flew.While I agree the 763 is excellent, the attitude towards the Acceleration bugs has been frustrating being summarized as 1) you can live with them or 2) you can uninstall Acceleration to fix these problems. I'm waiting for the 757 to be released not only to see what I expect to be a great aircraft, but because they've stated they will legitimately fix these problems once the 757 is out. Eric Szczesniak
December 12, 201015 yr Now we just need them to reopen the link to the repaints so we can have more than just ANA and the LDS default. I guess their server was getting slammed from people downloading the repaints. In fact they said that more repaints were downloaded than the actual update. Not sure why people would download the repaint for winglet versin without the update though.It was open last night, even though, the post said it was closed for a couple of days. I downloaded all of them! There was one repaint that looked like there was a problem, the United Retro, tail textures appear to be missing. Other than that they look good. Just checked though and it looks like the links are down again. Thanks Tom My Youtube Videos! http://www.youtube.com/user/tf51d
December 12, 201015 yr Commercial Member Thanks.The Acceleration "bugs" have two workarounds. It is a problem and we recognize it is an inconvenience to wait until the 757 is complete. We have suggested that if users cannot live with the "bugs" and the workarounds, then the uninstallation of Xpack might be necessary.In fact, a user has come up with a novel fix for the problem, just reported in the support forum. When reporting flaws, please make sure to do so factually. The SUPPORT FORUM for Level-D Simulations products: http://www.leveldsim.com/forums
December 12, 201015 yr I really love the new VC textures since I never downloaded and installed André's VC update prior to this. Are they the exact same VC textures released by Andre? can someone confirm/list the 'exact' changes provided by this update? I never ever use any outside views, so having winglets or not makes no diff to me. But, if there is somehting 'new' then I will definitely give it a try.
December 12, 201015 yr Moderator Are they the exact same VC textures released by Andre?Yes, same thing. The main reason I was in awe was because I never installed them the first time. Now that they were automatically installed in the new model, just that was worth it for me to go ahead and install them in the standard non-winglet model.can someone confirm/list the 'exact' changes provided by this update? Here's a snip from the release PDF. I couldn't copy and paste the contents from the PDF so a screen shot will have to do.I never ever use any outside views, so having winglets or not makes no diff to me. But, if there is somehting 'new' then I will definitely give it a try.Yeah, I dont use external views much myself, other than for taking the occasional screen shot, but you maybe interested for the few fixes listed above if not for the sake of having a new model.Anyways, hope this helps and that the LDS guys dont mind that I provided a small screen shot from the release PDF. If not the mods can delete it if I was wrong to post the fixes.Regards. Avsim Board of Directors | Avsim Forums Moderator
