True! hehehehehe but not quite the same

Synthetic vision wont display autogen. And in the G1000, it also will "yellowise" or redden the terrain like a TAWS. And if you end up in bad weather...synthetic vision makes life more interesting.

And think about the obstacles or the highway in the sky guidance. Sweet. But I guess we agree that this would not only be a heavy programming task but also one causing FSX to slow down some more. And 'glass' already demands for some of the framerate. :mellow:

 

My guess would be that a realistic wish could involve VNAV. B) Far fetched, even weather display.

Dont be so sure. My R&D suggests that SVS and glass in general can be done in such a way as to have no impact on FPS whatsoever.

Jonathan, I'll take that point from you. But I rarely see those positive examples. In fact, the F1 G1000 may currently show how glass negatively affects FSX fps while I only recall e.g. the Majestic Q400 where it doesn't that much.

 

Well, rough statements of course since the F1 G1000 improved when reading the reports and the Q400 isn't a G1000 but 'just' a detailed PFD, ND and so on.

 

But we surely agree on a full G1000 in FSX being a thing of the future. I haven't even seen commercial offers (Mindstar or F1 student edition G1000) offering what the real gauge would do. Side note. I don't know if there even was a market for such details, let alone a price point for the average sim fan to adjust to.

Given what I have seen in the F1 it is quite well optimised although i do think it could go further. But you are right in that no FPS impact is rare. Thats because the tech is only just starting to become more common.

Hi everybody

 

Maybe someone can help. I have a switch panel and a multi panel from Saitek and also MCP combo from VRinsight, but don't work with B200.

I try already SPAD and LINDA, but I can't this work. Most of the function don't accept and the few ones I can do something have conflict and not work right.

Already someone had the some problems?

If there are anyone who can help thanks

Does this airplane display the taxi and landing lights on the ground like the PMDG 777?

Affirmative... It has the Lotus style landing lights etc

Have you posted over in the Flight1 support forum? The B200 does not use very many of the default FSX global variables and will not directly work with many of the hardware add-ons. Several folks at the Flight1 forum are developing Lua scripts and Flight1 techs have been very helpful.

F1 posted yesterday that they just dropped Ver. 1.3. Go get it if ya don't already have it.

How is everyone liking the King Air so far? 

Just checked the Hobbs meter.  125 hrs.

I love it, it's powerful and requires you to manage Power properly and stay ahead of the plane.

I actually just returned it for refund. It's a great plane and I wanted to keep it but felt I could use the $60.00 on  a different add on I'd use more. I don't think they addressed the rudder issue in 1.3 as I could stand on the rudder back and forth and even at low speed it had hardly any effect on yaw. I'm not a real B200 pilot but I have ridden along many times in C-12's and something does seem a bit off there.  Other than that It was a beautiful aircraft and I really liked hand flying it, I thought it was easy to trim etc. It remains one of the few aircraft I was able to consistently score well with in REX Latitude without using the AP.  If I was more of a fan of glass cockpits I probably would have kept it; perhaps in the future if it goes on sale I'll give it another go.  At any rate I support and commend Flight One for their refund policy I'm certainly a big fan of their products.
