Changelog:

Please FULLY uninstall the previous version of the aircraft before installing this one.

This version is the final version of the update. There will be no further changes unless there are any reproducible CTDs that somehow hid from the beta and development team. We intend to release it formally to all customers in the next few days but we are giving support forum users a first look at it (this helps us ensure that no issues appear with a much wider audience and it gets you all the new version for the weekend). I have done my best to summarize changes from the last release below. There are likely many more changes that I did not list.

Also I believe there is a fix for SLI users included as well but it's not listed in the changelog

 

[edpatino 1,964]

Has anyone tried the SP1 yet?. It seems that there are still issues.

Cheers, Ed

[KenG 492]

It is not bug free. There are still a few issues. But, overall very good. 

I don't think there is much more reason to wait. Read their support forums and see if any of the complaint items is a show stopper for you.

Sitting on the fence on either this one of the latest offer from Flight1 B200 which too has come in for its fair share of comments.

I have a few MilViz aircraft and on the whole like them, but I think I'll hold for now on either.

Buyer's market.

[edpatino 1,964]

In this new version I cannot successfully calibrate the throttle axis of my TM-TWCS to the four gates Reverse, Beta, Idle and Full. Using MVAMS Calibrate button and saving thereafter does nothing. A very basic issue.

Cannot tell about any other aspect of the SP1 just because without throttle calibration I won't like to takeoff with this aircraft.

So please, if someone had success in calibrating please give me a clue. On the previous version it was working right.

Cheers, Ed

So if i purchase it now do i get the SP1 or do I have to wait a " few days" ?

[Milviz 919]

the SP1 is NOT released to the general public yet... And we're pulling it right now.  There's a bug that's causing a HUGE vram spike.  We know EXACTLY what the issue is and will fix it asap. 

For the controls, suggest you get on support forums and we will assist you there.
