July 12, 20232 yr Got this, this morning in an email. In case you didn't get it. Version 1.9.6 – July 7 2023 New Feature ----------- The FDE has been revised to not require quite so much power on final. Load stations and CG have been modified to closer match the real aircraft. Cameras have been modified to accomodate the revision of the CG. You'll notice the different camera view right away, the default pilot view is further back and a bit lower, we'd like your feedback on this change. The aircraft should be a little less stressful to land with considerably less power required to maintain speed on final. There's slightly more lift during the flare. A side effect of these changes is that the nose wheel steering at higher speeds requires a bit more attention than before. Adjustments ----------- - Elevator trim effectiveness has been adjusted to make each increment do less movement. This has the side effect of making the AP less effective in the pitch channel so big adjustments to pitch by the AP will take a bit longer to accomplish. Also, the indicator position has been moved up 20% to better reflect the actual setting. - Several relatively minor model fixes are also incorporated in this release. - Changes to the way the avionics suites are handled are included with this SP. Better integration with the latest WT changes to the base 530/430 and KAP-140 autopilot is a result. See "Notes on Avionics Configurations" below for more details. Bug Fixes --------- Fixed: Brake damage is not saved and restored. (This affected other damage too.) Fixed: Prop switching back to max fine setting after landing with feathered prop. Fixed: Dirt is not accumulating on the airframe. Fixed: After recovery from a stall the AP will no longer work. Fixed: Engine does not actually fail when it should based on damage. This release contains a code fix that addresses a potential timing issue that could be causing some of the save/restore state issues that have been reported. I was never able to reproduce this issue with any regularity so please if you've had problems with save/restore in 'owned' mode, see if they are any better or have gone away.
July 12, 20232 yr The camera view for me is way too far aft. Can this be adjusted from Camera.cfg ? https://ibb.co/12Cwwtq

Pretty sure Z is the distance forward/back. 9800X3D | 5090 | 64GB DDR5 | LG C2 42"

July 12, 20232 yr The default camera position is not that different to before for me. I don't use the set views, just pan around with my hat switch, if that makes a difference. I think it's a good update. Landing feels so much more realistic now. 9950X3D - X870E Aorus Master- TUF 5090 OC - 64GB DDR5 - 1500W HXi - Titan 360 RX LCD - 9100 Pro x 2 - LG 45GX950A - HOTAS Warthog with Ava Base
July 12, 20232 yr Greetings! Sorry to sound like a rube, but is this a update/replacement for the MilViz C310R? I got the email regarding the update, but while the MilViz C310 folder is within my Community folder, I don't see the BBS_C310R_*** folder anywhere. Do I removed the Milviz C310R folder from the Community folder and replace it with the BBS_C310R? Thanks, Scott "...now let's get this thing on the hump - we've got some flyin' to do!" ~ Major Kong from "Dr. Stranglove" Scott Cebula
July 12, 20232 yr They did allude in the notes that the view was a change they were seeking feedback for. Cockpit default views are easily changed in the sim using the camera controls and then the command set VFR view (I think that’s it…not in front of my computer right now…it’s set to ctrl-alt-v for me).

Thanks, Scott Milviz has recommended in the past to uninstall the old version in windows and then just install the latest version.

When I look left or right using the hat switch, the top part of my canopy disappears and I’m in the open air! I don’t remember that prior to this update. Oh well…back in the hanger with this one. Pity. -B
