Aidan Sandri Posted January 3, 2011 Share Posted January 3, 2011 Great Shots Jared! Can't wait to download it, The second shot, IMHO is a turn off to me, not your fault, but the way FSX handles night lighting.. Where were these shots taken at btw?

ryanbatc Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Will this affect our panel edits and the lightmap you made for the GNS430W stack I did? Looks pretty good. In the first shot perhaps the "beam" is a bit too wide? Then again it's hard to tell from that exact angle, and the intensity of the lights matters too.

Can't wait to download it, The second shot, IMHO is a turn off to me, not your fault, but the way FSX handles night lighting.. Where were these shots taken at btw? Not standard Landing lights, they don't use the normal technique of the fsx lighting. Bundaberg is the location.

No the RXP racks will also be dimmable and will use the original maps but in a slightly differen't way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jared Charalambous Posted January 4, 2011 Author Share Posted January 4, 2011 is there a planned release date on the lights? Not yet, as it is only one part of the planed service pack which will include more new features and various user reported bug fixes. I will keep posting pics as updates reach presentable standards to give you folks an idea of where we are at. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waco Posted January 4, 2011 Share Posted January 4, 2011 Great plane and great support. Undoubtedly the best plane I have ever purchased. Thanks Jared! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kilstorm Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 I posted a request on the A2A forum about a flashlight feature and they replied it might be something they could do. Looking at your first picture gives me the feeling, if you guys wanted to, you guys could do the same thing. Basically, have a hotkey to turn on and off a hand held flashlight inside the cockpit, then where ever you move your mouse/cursor it lights up the area your over like a flash light would. You guys have made some revolutionary new features in FSX so I'm sure if you guys wanted to make yet another new feature like this, your team could pull it off. The new landing lights look great.

Ross Casey Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 BTW: aren't you flying a bit too low and a veeery little too fast in the second shot Actually you should try flying her this low that fast if you havn't done so already. Wouldn't suggest at night though. It's a real blast!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jared Charalambous Posted February 19, 2011 Author Share Posted February 19, 2011 Not yet sorry, progressing consistently but certainly can't offer an ETA at the moment, since the SP is mostly an enhancment rather than a fix there is a lot of new content to be built.

jjjallen Posted February 19, 2011 Share Posted February 19, 2011 Stay on it Jared. I'm sure that it will be great. Thanks jja Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martin Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Looking forward to it Jared, just did a nice flight from Coffs to Redcliffe in the Lancair along the coast at about 2,000 ft. Such a great aircraft and now I'm curious about what "enhancments" you might be adding Any teasers Cheers Martin Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPDST Posted February 23, 2011 Share Posted February 23, 2011 Hi Jared, That looks incredible! Will you also fix the issue of click sounds not working intermittently? Craig Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jared Charalambous Posted February 25, 2011 Author Share Posted February 25, 2011 Hi Jared, That looks incredible! Will you also fix the issue of click sounds not working intermittently? Craig I'm sorry I haven't done a final support request list yet. I will be going back through all the small issues before the SP release and making sure everything is fixed. But off the top of my head, with everything else I can't seem to remember a report of this issue. Have you reported this in the support section at all?

Guest strider Posted March 11, 2011 Share Posted March 11, 2011 Special request; anyway you can add dust, dirt, grime and scratches to the windows ?? The immersion factor in the new Turbine Duke is amazing !!! "The dust and grime on the cockpit windows is now more realistically lit, becoming bright when the sun is shining at it from behind".
