February 3, 20179 yr Hello,Is the animation of HDG TRUE/NORM button correct? For me it seems like the switch moves out from its mount while moving the switch. Could be that it's simulating the lifting of the switch or something but still think it's a bit lousy animation. And in the end it's not a major thing on such a complex aircraft but thought to ask about it anyways if you guys wanted to look into it Refrence: https://gyazo.com/99823ab6d0ae219ec208c6e83ee81ad5https://gyazo.com/2f6669f86fee028086283d4e9a207e89Otherwise I am loving every bit of this simulation and want to give huge thanks to PMDG team for bringing another great product for us hardcore simmers.Best regards,Jouka Ahponen thanks, Jouka Ahponen
February 3, 20179 yr Jouka- It is a switch that requires a pull on the lever guard to flip "over" the center. This is done to ensure intended change over and prevent unintended activation. Not seeing the lousy animation here, looks appropriate to me. Best- Carl Avari-Cooper
February 3, 20179 yr Author I know it requires a pull over a guard. I have actually operated such switch in real life so I know how it works. But looking at the animation of this switch there is no "pull" movement moving the switch out from the panel on x axis on xyz-coordination. It seems to only move on z axis with a jump first "out from the mount" and then moving the switch to correct position.It could be I am really just nitpicking here though but in my opinion the "wrong" movement is visible from longer distances as well. thanks, Jouka Ahponen
February 3, 20179 yr Commercial Member Thanks for pointing this out. Sometimes little things like this slip through. We'll be sure to address it in a future update. Vin Scimone Precision Manuals Development Group www.precisionmanuals.com
February 3, 20179 yr Author Thank you vscimone. Yeah, there is so many switches and animations that it's understandable.Have a good weekend. thanks, Jouka Ahponen
February 3, 20179 yr Thanks for pointing this out. Sometimes little things like this slip through. We'll be sure to address it in a future update. Naughty corner for you guys, Vin. But seriously, from what I have seen on the forums so far, it doesn't seem like you guys missed much at all. I've not yet managed to do any flights with her, but from the pictures and videos of others, this just seems on a whole different level of incredible. R.

February 4, 20179 yr Author I will continue on this topic as well, that the EICAS text is hidden left to that switch. You can see it on the second gif.https://gyazo.com/2f...6283d4e9a207e89 thanks, Jouka Ahponen
