That's not true at all. With SB most of multiplayer traffic was painted in the VIP livery, but with FSInn, every single aircraft tis painted as it should be.

 

 

That isn't my point. When you connect to the VATSIM server with SB it requires you to select an aircraft and a livery and provided you have an AI package which corresponds to all the potential entries (it doesn't have to be the VIP package, you can set up an AI package using anything) it will always show you and every other aircraft correctly. 

 

FSInn does not work like this, it purely goes off what the aircraft is called within the CFG file and then attempts to find a close match within the AI package. I've used FSInn extensively over the years, I've done hundreds of VATSIM hours with it and never once have I completed a flight where other people have seen me correctly, and has it picked AI to represent other aircraft properly - also, I've used WoAI (every package installed pretty much) and MyTraffic to test this.

 

An example would be how I'd always see someone connect and they're actually flying, say, an American Airlines 757 - yet FSInn would display that aircraft as some random 757, never American Airlines, despite there being more than one American Airlines 757 within my AI database. Even worse, it'd sometimes not even display the correct aircraft type. This was with all the options in FSInn set up to actually be as specific as possible. 

 

If you've found some method that actually fixes this, I'd love to hear it!

 

 

Enough...Last warning!!

 

You? Warning me? What are you warning me about? The heatwave?

Hi Testers,

 

Can refuelling this bird be achieved like the MD11 where gradual uplift and weight increase is simulated.

 

That feature was really cool.

 

 

thanks

That's been already asked, answered and discussed exhaustively.

Yes, it is simulated via an FMC page called "Ground Operations"

There are several tutorials at vatsim forums, but the easiest one is the tool that automatically assign liveries, and it works well.

Tried all the tutorials, and tried the tool. It doesn't fix the fact it's an inherent design flaw with FSInn in the fact there's not a finite number of potential assignments of aircraft and livery.

 You can also use pseudo_full_screen.zip (found in the AVSIM file library) to remove the top bar of FSX when using windowed mode so it looks exactly identical to normal full-screen. 

 

 

Holy cr*p ive been looking for something like that for years!!! Thanks!!!

just a couple of systems shots as I am currently working my way through checking the electrical system

 

 

Here the APU is providing power on the ground, whilst the external power is still live. Notice because of that, the Right side buses are still on external power, reducing the load on the APU. Notice also the LOAD SHED messages. The APU has shed the Left Util bus. The APU gen cannot carry all loads so the util busses shed.  Note that you can carry the right util bus, but only if you shut down most of the big power consumers:  fuel pumps, hydraulic AC driven pumps etc.

 

Here we are with external power now disconnected so we are only on the APU, both busses are now shedding. Although, as mentioned above, switch off those big consumers and you can get UTIL power.

Well, I'm sorry it doesnt work for you. 

There was a thread talking about this but I can't find it now.... how does the 777 handle flight over the Pole? Does the autopilot handle it correctly?

 

What about RTA? Is that in there? Can you show the FMS page for it?

 

Great to see the FIX page is complete too - that is awesome. So useful. What are you able to draw on the ND?

 

Does the autopilot of the 777 have IAN (or equivalent)? What about using the FMS to fly approaches?

 

What is the failure system like? I have to say I found this to be a weak point in the MD-11 as well as the NGX - I found failures would occur too quickly, and too close together., Before you know it, the 3 failure-limit has been reached, and I'm not even at the runway yet (this is consistent behavior, making it useless for me at least). The only people to get it right (in terms of triggering the failures) were LevelD with their 767.

I did a Polar routing yesterday from PANC to LGAV

There were no issues at all over Polar region. HDG REF switched to True automatically no issues with A/P

I presume this was with the 777 (your sig banner still says NGX Beta Tester).

 

Does the autopilot enter a coast mode near the pole? I understand all navigation systems must "coast" in some way over the Pole, and suspend calculations for pre-determined time frames, then they resume when they are past the Pole, due to computational singularity that can result from passage directly over the Pole, or very close to it. What does the 777 do specifically in this situation, and does the PMDG 777 do the same?

 

Best regards,

Robin.

Yes with 777 the NG does not have that range.

 

The Plane responded exactly as per the FCOM for polar region flights.

AWESOME! Thanks.

 

Best regards,

Robin.
