Probably being brought up before but a reminder, the kind of Zibomod of default A330

https://github.com/Coalition-of-Freeware-Developers/AeroGenesis-A330/releases

 

Not quite a zibolization as 737, FMC/FCU/PFD/ND and most systems are all default, but hey, the default is kinda good enough anyway.

But its added loading. Vspeed calculator, few changes. Has got bit way to go but not bad

Looks cool!  Have to give it a try...

The discord link on their GitHub page is out of date.  Perhaps someone already in their discord can let them know it’s expired.

While their intention may be well, the developers are chasing a moving target. The default A330 is still getting updates from Laminar and Aerogenesis' changelog history reflects that. The list of features and fixes has been cut down to nothing but rump features because of the recent revamp by Laminar. Of the things that are left, only the poput panels and part of the EFB (Avitab, door management) have some use. V speed calculation can also be done via autofill in the FMS (click the associated LSK for the v speed field) and load management is more clumsy in the EFB than from XP's menu. The advertised object and texture improvements are hard to spot and the engine variants are purely cosmetic (no dataref or performance table changes). Barometer Synchronization can be had with less effort and more universally. Over all, the effort is a far cry from "ziboization". Maybe they should wait for XP13 with deeper reworks when the A330 has inevitably lost its flagship status.

Correction on the barometer synchronization: The independent and universal script does not really work on the default A330 as its scripts mess with the default barometer datarefs too much. Oh well, worth a try at least.

Outdated info in that one, as it was recorded pre 12.4 and therefore pre-A330 overhaul.

Was talking more about the navigation with charts.

I think this is a stranded mod - Good intentions - especially the EFB other than that nothing better than Laminars default A330. Few minor texture mods. Tried it - engine mods are well shall we say style only and carry no underlyings acf data for the selection. Liked what they did but think actually the Laminar Default is at a very high standard - why bother? 

At least they are trying. Why dont you go look at their discord if you have access. Find it funny how the nitpickers say dont bother to someone trying to improve things

In their defense, the mod started at a time when the A330 was indeed somewhat of a mess. But the fact that the feature list of the current release has nothing but "nice to have" items simply shows how many improvements Laminar has incorporated into the aircraft by now.
