X-Plane 10.50 RC1 released

[luke97 8]

Fixed for RC 1:

• Plane Maker & Desktop PDF manual updates for 1050 (XPD-5840).
• Fixed water reflection offset in normals (XPD-6484).
• Fixed goofy use of asymmetric dual window IOS for PFC (XPD-6482).
• New data refs and version bump (XPD-6409, XPD-6453, XPD-6455).
• Includes latest King Air with fuel flow fix (XPD-6479).
• Turned off “fat edges” of click zones in 3-d (XPD-6390).
• Fixed incorrect width check for AI and static aircraft (XPD-6475).
• Restored prop datarefs from mobile. Fixes dead prop power knob in ATR-72 (XPD-6420).
• Phase alpha and beta out to 0 at 0 speed – this prevents jitter of alpha and beta when plane is not flying.
• Take off distance accuracy improved a little bit for ATC.

My initial impression: Crashes (hangs) between loading AC and scenery.

Interested in finding out exactly what XPD-6479 means...

 

Have they fixed the FF varying with prop adjustments ?

Thanks for head up!

"Fixed water reflection offset in normals"

 

Wait, does this mean they finally fixed the distant reflections that seem to be way below the objects / landscape?

[Denco 48]

So RC1 means it's also on steam?

That would be great indeed! Those offset reflections have been around for ages...

[Sethos 4,514]

Well I'll be damned, it appears it has indeed been fixed. I can't tell you how happy that makes me.

almost. should be in 24-48 hours

Before starting some conspiracy theories about water reflection, why not read what Ben Supnik wrote about that fix (it improves some things, but can't fix everything!):

Conspiracy theories? I don't see any of those.

I looked at some lakes north of swiss Alps, where the reflections where catastrophic, and now they're perfect. We can live with a few exceptions, but this fix is a big one !

 

Cheers,

I'm interested to know what exactly that is...

It's a bug database ID (D=desktop).
