Synaptic have released a video featuring the current state of development of the avionics for the coming A22X, once a freeware product, now to be released as payware with the support of iniBuilds. It looks fascinating, with very interesting features not seen in most avionics suites in MSFS. State of Avionics Update | Synaptic A22X (youtube.com) Cheers, Brian

I have also been dabbling since subLOGIC days and would have to say I totally agree!! If the flight handling and sounds are up to the same standard as the visuals, this freebie will put a lot of payware products in the shade!

Great aerial shots of a magnificent area of the country! We just drove through that region late last year - loved the whole of Western Australia, especially the entire coast and the National Parks we visited! Since arriving home on the east coast I have also flown the entire Big Lap route we drove , which was almost as enjoyable!

I have just purchased your FSR500 Piper M500 from the MSFS Marketplace. For repainting I need a Blender model and paint kit - can you please advise if they have been released yet and if so, point me to those resources? TIA

All my Aerosoft model files are missing the belly objects (at the wing root). That can be painted easily in the paint kit if it is all one colour, but if different colours need to match and align with the fuselage paint, it is very challenging to do. Is anyone able to help please? TIA for any assistance!

OK - understand. I'm presuming you have tried a complete uninstall, deletion of folder from Community, restart computer, restart the installation from AerosoftOne? I don't think it will accept your Aerosoft activation code on Contrail btw!

If you delete the FMSPlugin.js file from the Panel folder, you will/should be able to use most of the avionics except the keyboards/keypads, so having a flight plan from the World Map will work. Then the plane will fly quite well - I'm enjoying it. I've not had problems with bindings, but agree that the default pilot position is weird, as is the lack of visible pilots before start, the way the panel jolts around when throttle adjustments are made, and a few other niggling faults will certainly need fixes before it becomes a truly enjoyable aircraft. I am also frustrated that the only airframe variant that can be repainted at present is the default pax version - I've not found a way to activate any of the other models, which is another problem that needs addressing, along with some sample file structures for each variant.

After a huge amount of frustration, time and effort, I eventually got a message from FSS about the above problem. Uninstalling, reinstalling, starting as administrator did not work, but simply deleting one file is their temporary fix for the problem - it worked, but it apparently affects the use of the keypad, which is not regarded as a big deal! So if there is anyone else out there struggling with the same issues in this newly released aircraft here is the fix: 1. REMOVE the file fss-aircraft-tecnam-p2012\SimObjects\Airplanes\FSS_Tecnam_P2012\panel\FMSPlugin.js 2. YOU MAY ALSO NEED TO edit the layout.json file in the root folder to delete the entry for the FMSPlugin.js file. 3. WAIT FOR FSS - you will find the avionics work after doing 1 and 2, and FSS said they are working on permanent a fix.

There's much more to it than that - new updated modelling to remove mirroring is one major improvement for painters and others wanting more accurate liveries. And there are other things he has done too ... check out his modifications log.

That method of creating liveries is extremely complicated and time-consuming and therefore only makes real sense if you are going to sell or distributed hundreds or thousands of them. However, for most users wanting to create custom liveries it is simply uneconomical in time and effort. Commercial publishers have created models which can be painted with quality liveries much more easily, and I believe Asobo could do that too if they chose.

There are still some mirroring issues with the model, including the Kuro 787-8 - an Asobo legacy from the 787-10 which they will need to fix, I assume. However it is possible to adapt some liveries to accommodate those, and I am particularly pleased with the China Southern livery I have done for the 787-8!

Thanks Mace - I had just done that (remove the compatibility mod) and it did fix the problem!

For no apparent reason, my Caribou Garmin instrument is blank - even when starting the aircraft on the runway with engines running! I have not flown the aircraft before, and yet have seen online videos where the instrument is live and operating when pilots have commenced with engines running. I have both the 430/530 WT instrument as well as the 430/530 Compatibility fix installed from the Content Manager - could one or both of these be the problem? If anyone has a solution, I'd be glad of your help! TIA!

I have the same problem with my updated file from Marketplace. Do others have this problem with aircraft purchased from other places? UPDATE - this mod at flightsim.to seems to have fixed the problem for me: Search for '[HJet] V1.1 - External LED Lights Improvement'

I liked one of dwendel's liveries for the Longitude so much that I adapted it and use these colours to fly it every time it is taken out of the hangar! https://www.dropbox.com/s/p4bzk0qdosmy5nj/Jet6 Citation Longitude.jpg?dl=0
