carlosqr Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Hi I was just updating Belfast and this Windows installation "window" opned... It looks odd to me as it has never happened before. Is this something new? Or is it not related to Central but MS? I just don't like strange unusual windows to open Also why does it take so long ar the "loading your scenery and (can't remember what is says) but lasts too long at that stage..... Thanks Cheers Carlos 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paulb Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 I downloaded from Central yesterday Carlos. I didn't have that screen. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ed Correia Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 That’s the installer running for the Nool Aerosystems plugin that drives the VDGS. If you already have it, that installer should skip straight past. 1 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack Sawyer Posted August 31, 2022 Share Posted August 31, 2022 Dang, what a coincidence Carlos, I had the same thing on an Orbx Central airport update yesterday. It was unsettling as I didn't know what processes were causing this. @Ed Correiadoes this do this for an update too? I think the update was EGPH. Thanks. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jack Visual Docking Guidance System is a system that helps aircraft pull onto stand. Basically replacing the job of a marshaller, Nool Aerosystems is just who created the plugin 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The captain (as that's the side of the airliner that usually has the steering tiller) guides the aircraft onto stand, following the guidance of the VDGS box, rather than a marshaller. Here's how a real world VDGS operates. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The real world aircraft I worked had tillers on both sides. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was thinking 737 or Q400 when I said that. Other airliners, e.g. A320 or 747, clearly have two. 10 minutes ago, Jack Sawyer said: Thanks. So this is modeled in the sim? Which airport? Yes it is, great addition to airliner realism. Aerosoft Brussels, Aerosoft Gran Canaria and obviously Pryeegue's Belfast that are identified (I'm sure I'm missing more). There are other airport sceneries available elsewhere, but it would be wrong to advertise for alternatives while on Orbx's site. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I believe Ben Gurion has it too, can't remember well about others, I don't use it much 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
