October 17, 20178 yr Author Commercial Member It does indeed look imminent, possibly even tomorrow or Wednesday if we're lucky!
October 17, 20178 yr I am really impressed by the many improvements and new features the bus will offer. This I call progressive development. 👍 Regards, Chris -- PC: Intel 13900K, Gigabyte Geforce RTX 4090, 64GB Fury Beast DDR5 RAM; Display: Varjo Aero VR

October 17, 20178 yr Impressive list! Will all these changes come to the FSX and P3Dv3 version as well? Or will these products no longer be updated and improved? That would be quite sad... I love this Airbus, but I don’t use P3Dv4, and I have no intentions to do so in the foreseeable future...

I believe they are allowing to configure the intensity for systems where DL put a heavy load on FPS, by reducing the intensity you could alleviate the issue.

I love this Airbus, but I don’t use P3Dv4, and I have no intentions to do so in the foreseeable future... From the forum post: Support and bug fixes of all versions of the A320-X will continue normally - we expect that Service Pack 1 will be the last major update with new functionality for 32-bit versions of the product line and our focus will shift to the 64-bit platform(s) afterwards. https://forums.flightsimlabs.com/index.php?/announcement/6-a320-x-for-prepar3d-v41-now-available/ Lukasz Kulasek i7-8700k, RTX 2080 TI, 32 GB RAM, ASUS TUF Z370-PRO Gaming, Oculus Rift CV1

All the bug fixes and some of the new features will be wound back into the FSX and P3Dv3 versions. Some of the new features like the all-new sound engine will be 64-bit only features. Karl Brooker
