• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Greetings fellow flight simmers,

we have been busy working under the hood and we are now ready to release our latest feature packed update.

Here is a glimpse to what has been added, fixed, and changed:

  • Added Advanced camera movement system (optional setting) that moves the camera head position as you look around in the cockpit, aligns the camera to the overhead or pedestal up direction so that text remains readable and a better panel overview is achieved.
  • Fixed Bug fixes when Vulkan renderer is active. The Vulkan renderer should now be used by default on AMD and NVIDIA GPU's.
  • Changed R22 rotor simulation to use elastic blades to better match helicopter reaction with respect to control inputs.
  • Added R22 rotor blade bending in graphics, blades bend according to load and when engine is turned off
  • Fixed Throttle levers in A320, B737, B747, C90Gtx, LJ45 and Q400 now allow finer adjustments
  • Added A320 electrical system now allows to get into dark state
  • Added A320 FWC (flight warning computer) simulation, ECAM messages with ECAM actions, status page and status reminder... more than 100 warnings and 60 memos simulated and the implementation is open for expansion via tmd. Warnings sounds have not been added yet.
  • Added A320 realistic delays between pilot action and system changes, e.g. it might take couple of seconds to display spoilers aremd
  • Changed A320 minor changes to direct law and alternate law
  • Changed A320 ailerons, elevators, rudders and spoilers can now fail when respective computers are set off, might be difficult to fly (give it a try).
  • Changed A320 ECAM fuel page redone, now in modern style
  • Changed A320 fixes to ECAM electrical page
  • Added A320 fuel system with gravity feed and outer wing transfer
  • Added A320 PFD, ND red flags flashing
  • Added A320 "no autoland" warning
  • Added A320 stall speeds calculated from angle of attack and gross mass
  • Added A320 anti skid tested after gear extension
  • Added A320 flight director resets 30 seconds after landing
  • Added A320 IRS needs alignment after being shut down (time shortened to one minute instead of up to 10 min.)
  • Added A320 when spoilers are automatically retracted (e.g. flap full, high angle of attack or TOGA) they will be inhibited until the spoiler lever is set to retract
  • Fixed A320 FCU only resets after power has been lost for some time
  • Fixed A320 CAT 3 stays active when levers are pulled to idle for landing flare
  • Fixed A320 engine fire warning on ECAM when light test is performed
  • Changed A320 autoland spoilers only extend when thrust levers are manually pulled back to idle
  • Changed A320 jump seat view position
  • Changed A320 drag reduced
  • Changed A320 ignition selector only triggers engine page for engine start
  • Changed A320 engine display shows MREV thrust rating during revers thrust application
  • Added A320 MCDU flight plan can be created from the INIT page (set icao origin and destination)
  • Added A320 MCDU flight plan departure and arrival runways can be selected
  • Added A320 MCDU pages lateral revision, vertical revision, arrival and departure, some parameters are already operative, e.g. 10k speed limit and constraints might work
  • Added A320 MCDU flight plan page waypoints can be inserted and removed (BETA)
  • Added A320 MCDU scratchpad messages like ADD DRAG or DECELERATE
  • Added A320 MCDU pages position monitor, gps monitor and irs monitor
  • Added LJ45, Q400 and B737 a lot of new CDU pages have been added, e.g. navigation, flight plan, performance, fuel, tuning, etc.
  • Added LJ45, Q400 and B737 flight plan can be created and edited via CDU
  • Added LJ45, Q400 and B737 flight plan departure and arrival runways can be selected via CDU
  • Added B737 added greenish moving map to the radar screen
  • Changed Q400 engines are now build from modular engine components
  • Changed Q400 FADEC now able to increase power more quickly (less lag)
  • Added Q400 electrical system finished, Q400 systems can now reach cold and dark state
  • Fixed Q400 APU generator is now working and charging batteries
  • Added Q400, C90Gtx power levers can be pulled into reverse with VR hands or mouse
  • Changed C90Gtx engines are now build from modular engine components
  • Added C90Gtx low and high idle, engines can be shut down and restarted
  • Added C90Gtx electrical system added, C90GTx now also reached cold and dark status
  • Added C90Gtx working radio navigation and MFD options pages in the CDU
  • Added C90Gtx master caution and warning now flashing, more warnings functional
  • Added B58 engines can be shut down now, now also cold and dark
  • Fixed B737 autotuning on ADF removed
  • Changed B747 improvements to the displays, e.g. correct navigation sources for pilot and copilot navigation displays
  • Changed F18 and F15e steering range is automatically managed for you, high steering is selected at low speed (below roughly 10 kts)
  • Changed MB339 engines are now build from modular engine components
  • Added R22 doors can be opened
  • Changed ASG29 canopy animation smoothed out, no more jumps when closing
  • Fixed Advanced autopilot fixes to localizer capture on East headings
  • Fixed Advanced autopilot changed glide slope mode corrects for non standard glide slope angles (e.g. steep approaches)
  • Changed Advanced autopilot speed hold adjusted for autothrottle SPEED mode and vertical IAS HOLD pitch mode
  • Fixed Advanced autopilot numerous bug fixes and minor improvements

Special thanks to those of you who assisted during our alpha testing phase.

This update will be available in the public version of Steam today and for non-Steam users shortly thereafter.
