Goran is adding additional functinalities to the GPS, to allow for sort of RNAV capabilities.

Thanks Goran for taking the time to give us an update, very much appreciated.

:smile: It's not only an update... it's an update with a progress bar !

 

I guess some people will now count the number of "-", calculate the percent of the progress, and estimate the remaining time after searching when Goran said it's "far from being finished".

 

:LMAO:

The answer I came up with is eleventy.

Is it done yet? When will it be released? Will it be freeware or payware? How much will it cost? Any updates on the progress? Will it work for Xbox? Can I be a beta tester? How's the performance in VR?

The answer I came up with is eleventy.

 

Well, "When will the Saab be released?" is a very spiritual question, and in keeping with any attempt to put a numerical value on an ontological proposition, the answer must be 42.

Goran, I've been thinking about this a lot lately, does the SAAB take into account the excessive torque induced roll in it's FM?

There's been a fair amount of discussion about this recently and I've been swayed to think that there's a valid point to consider ...

The torque roll "bug" in the Saab is non-existent.

Took care of it about a year ago.

For Goran ... :Big Grin: :Party: :dance: :im Not Worthy:

@MdMax, PWJT8D & Scotchegg ... ROFLMAO !!

 

Droll .. very droll!

 

 

I just noticed this topic and also realized that nobody is getting worked up about the delay as you might see in the FSX forums. I am still excited about the forthcoming delivery of the Saab 340.

 

Thanks!

I think this is because LES has communicated not only that there will be a short delay but also the reasons for it. They have managed peoples expectations well.

I hope LES could consider a spin-off replacement for the completely ***C*** default GPS in X-Plane.  For the life of me, I don't understand what is the reasoning behind that.  Back to the topic, I can take the wait, the 777s are keeping me busy at the moment.

AFAIK the GPS in the SAAB isn't a fully featured affair (I don't think it was ever meant to be because it's not technically 'realistic' for that aircraft .. I could be wrong!) .. so don't expect an X-Reality Garmin430 type of gadget .. it will allow you to follow a RNAV route .. just like the default XP Garmin does :).

 

I think that the biggest issue people may have with the default XP GPS is that it only offers a very simplistic subset of what the Garmin 430 is capable ... so people view it as an inadequate toy.

This perception is probably exacerbated by the availability of the XReality Garmin flavours that do provide near complete functionality (they're actually simulators in their own right) .. unfortunately only available as 32bit software and there's been no indication that they will develop for XP 64 bit ...

 

Yes .. it would be nice if someone eventually creates a fully featured GPS in XP .. and I think that will happen one day!

 

 

I sure hope you are correct about this-a lack of a current rw simulated gps is kinda a deal breaker for me for the sim.
