iniBuilds A310 first impressions

Does the A310 use the CFD?

[smurfboard 9]

The knob for changing the heading is way way too slow, a major pain - is it just me ?

Flying manually in and out of orbx sydney - fps is about the same as 787 for me.

The aircraft feels much "twitchier" than the 787, will try adjusting my controller.

Simbrief (In-game using CDU ? MCDU ) import is not working.

The Navigraph Simbrief Log-in using a username on my setup is now my e-mail address and that is not working on the inbuild A310.

 

 

It is working fine for me using my Simbrief alias.

Note that if you have any special characters in your username, you have to manually enter the username into the simbrief.ini file as per this post.

I hope this helps.

I also cannot import Simbrief flightplans (keeps saying "pending"). We are supposed to use our Simbrief ALIAS, correct? Tried both with alias and user name, but neither worked.

This happens to me aswell same thing if i try to import SB Flightplans but a lot users have this - see the inibuilds forum..

https://forum.inibuilds.com/topic/5990-simbrief-not-working/

 

This is from iniBuilds forum:

Network requests from code (from WASM, at least, not sure about JS/HTML instruments) are impacted by MSFS server status. Due to the popularity of the 40th Anniversary update, the servers are under heavy load. I have just been disconnected as I type this. The Simbrief integration was tested heavily during the production phase. Until server loads lighten, the SimBrief uplink may be unreliable, this is unfortunately largely out of our hands. 

 

cheers 😉

Don't believe so, I recall earlier in their discord them confirming as such... though that said, their upcoming payware P-40 does, they call it out in their announce video at  https://youtu.be/FhLXEV5ytXA?t=21 where "comprehensive use of CFD flight model technology" is mentioned. CFD might be more useful for light aircraft than heavier airliners maybe.

Can you guys look in this folder and see if your plane compiled correctly? @Swe_Richard @blueshark747@Shack95
 

%LOCALAPPDATA%\Packages\Microsoft.FlightSimulator_8wekyb3d8bbwe\LocalState\packages\microsoft-aircraft-a310-300

 

it should look like this:

I am having the same issue and only have Flight planes,Panel states,options, simbrief in there. Maybe why it went into a death dive an hour into a transatalantic flight. it just rolled over into a death dive.and despite auto pilot disengaging there was virtually no chance of controlling it even manually.

I have tried re-installing it twice now with no difference, it still loads in about a minute at most from pressing fly.

Thank you for reporting this. I've been uninstalling and reinstalling to no avail. Hope a fix will come soon now.

I also cannot import Simbrief flightplans (keeps saying "pending"). We are supposed to use our Simbrief ALIAS, correct? Tried both with alias and user name, but neither worked.

When I log into Simbrief (a Navigraph log in now) from my desktop I have to use my e-Mail address.

If I try to use the old Alias/username I get a prompt telling me to use my email address e.g. myemail@xxxyyy.com.

 

So, I assume I would use the same when using MSFS inbuilds A310, correct?

Note:

At present I can try using anything to log in and it does not give an error message .... just says "pending".

Unfortunately, as of now I have nothing good to say about this bird: as soon as I try entering a route, I get a CTD. Does anybody else have this issue? The help in iniBuilds FAQ is not that helpful...

What does the enhanced package provide? I don’t have any need for the cabin so if it is also just higher external textures then I’ll probably drop it and just install a couple of add on liveries instead. Not had a chance to fly it yet.

Never mind, found out on the Inibuilds forum that improved VC textures are also part of that.

Anyone seeing a huge dead zone with the throttles? I have to push my physical throttle over halfway forward before anything happens in the sim. I tried calibrating it in the efb with no luck.

[sidfadc 1,341]

So despite the WASM compiler issues and low FPS I decided to try a flight out in the "boonies" where scenery is light to bump up FPS.  I must say my first impressions are VERY NICE.  Once Asobo fix the WASM issue (hotfix surely?) I reckon this bird is going to be one of my favourites.

James,

 

I had this issue at first.

It resolved after a PC restart for me.

Jasper

That is good news!

Did you do the throttle calibration (on A310's i-pad)?
