Thanks, @Flyfaster, but I think I'm pretty much set.   There were only a couple small changes that needed making.   I have a point release now that should be fully compatible with the new sim version.  It also fixes a bug I found in the previous version with the help of @Steve Dra that made the avionics brightness knob in the Caravan not work.  Now it does.

Thanks to everyone who volunteered to test.   Here you go!

https://github.com/Working-Title-MSFS-Mods/fspackages/releases/download/g1000-v0.2.1/workingtitle-g1000-v0.2.1.zip

Replace the existing directory with that and you should be good.   Let me know if you run into any other unexpected issues. 😄

 

I have SP2 Installed with no previous version of the G1000 mod. Do I just extract the G1000 mod folder to my community folder?

Thanks!

Made some progress tonight:

I'm actually doing the same thing. Except I'm using the G1000 simulator for reference.

Actual ground color is hex 54350a and sky is 004cff a ways above the horizon. I don't know what you mean by greyscale though - did you mean to say gradient?

Yup that's it. workingtitle-g1000 folder goes in your Community folder.

Thanks L3m0n, I trust your work better than mine! And yes, I was trying to say gradient, sorry. I'm not a native english speaker. lol
Just found the a1000.ttf font inside the game files, and did the change inside Templates, but that made the G3000 font a little lighter, and I don't know why, so I'm not using.
And thanks for the color hex codes, I'm gonna use them.

@kaosfere Thank you so much for the mod.  I see the TBM930 is not in the SimObjects folder,  are you planning on adding that as well?

Regards,
Rob

Just put it in the folder.  Great Mod, thank you.  Really like dimming the PFD and MFD.  I see a place for synthetic vision but I do prefer it off.

Question: I also thought that TRACK UP was implemented in the MFD but the notes didn't show that as a feature.  Is that still a work in progress?

Right now the TBM isn't officially part of this, as we're focusing on the G1000 first.   But we have definite plans to extend to the 3000.  And my earlier mod for dimmable panels in the TBM still seems to work in this version.

It's now feature-complete in our dev branch and will be coming out in v0.3. 😄

Okay, sounds good. I tried to remark the entry out of the Interior.xml of theTBM but got a CTD.

Thanks,

Rob

Hi @kaosfere before finishing 0.3 - have a look at the altimeter bug, it doesn't show the second digit after the point, if it is a 0.

Anyway, thanks for your efforts, I'm so happy with your mod.

You mean in the baro pressure?    That wouldn't surprise me, and it should be an easy enough fix.    Thanks!

Did I read somewhere there was a fix for how adding an approach was giving strange "user" waypoints?

Yes, the baro pressure. It's funny, I'm right now running into a bug of a bug 😉 at 30.00 inch it shows 30IN, then also the decimal point is missing.

On top of that - 30.01 inch shows as 30.01IN which is correct. It seems the 0 is missing when it is the second digit after the decimal point.

Funny, I was going through issues just now and noticed we've already fixed this in 0.3.0.   We're taking care of so much I can't keep up.  😂

First up thanks to @kaosfere and the rest of the team for grabbing this tiger by the tail...

Secondly a specific G-1000 question - is it possible to have no FP loaded, activate a "Direct To" destination and then select, activate and fly an approach procedure at the destination (assuming one exists)?  If it is possible in the real G-1000 is this broken in FS2020?  If it's not broken then what am I doing wrong?

Thirdly a more generic G-1000 question.  Does anyone know if a definitive list exists on the state of the G-1000 in FS2020 - what is implemented and works, implemented and broken and not implemented.

TIA.

Definitive.. we are one month in and still trying to come to terms with the G1000... 😉
