New Beta version of the Etendard

Question, loved the first release of this plane but when I downloaded the new beta my virus scanner went beserk. Says it found 3 instances of of trojan backdoor IRCBOT. A little search brings up this as a definition: An IRC bot is a set of scripts or an independent program that connects to Internet Relay Chat as a client. But I also get this answer which is worrysome: Backdoor Trojan Horse that connects to an IRC server and waits for commands from the hacker.

You guys put out some fantastic freeware which hasn't caused me any problems so this could be a false positive. Is there any multiplayer coding in the gauges that would cause this?

No problems for me...scanned with Kaspersky AV. It's definitely a false positive. :)
 
Just picked this up this morning and tested it. Very nice! Lot of improvements and it now has wing views from the VC. It's got a new soundset that is very nice.

Many thanks for the Dev team of this model. They have delivered a real gem even in this beta version. The final product will no doubt be one of the best FSX freewares of the next year of more.

Yes same her with AVG, I guess it is safe since the others has successfully installed it, but it still makes me uneasy.

Thanks for reminding me about the fun times I've had in IRC a few years ago. I've really loveed having Fishbot and a quiz bot in the channels I frequented. :d
 
My AVG virus checker is very upset with this download. It reports IRCbots.

Hi!
Yes it seems that AVG is very "upset" with these last packages. We checked the files with other virus scanner (Antivir, Avast, Spy Hunte, Internet Security, TrendMicro, MS Essential, Kaspersky)
After installation AVG doesn't "shout" anymore... may he doesn't like auto install program??
I'm sorry but I don't really have any fix to this...

zsoltquack: Beware of the wind!! With the next release the canopy would have been blasted out with such a wind on the deck (lol) Instead od ompening the canopy you should open the security and fuel doors using Shift+3... :icon_lol:

Hello,

The Drag Chute switch
Which way to switch it to work?

Zsolt

Hi,
Under the clock, open the cover and set the switch on "ARME" position.
The drag chute is opening when you set full flaps.

You have some restriction : you need to be on the ground and speed up 90knts.
The dragchute automatically dropped when speed is up to 150knts or less than 40knts.

Regards,
S.

Bonjour Sylvain,

Unfortunately, it does not open the Drag Chute!
What is blocking?

Hi Zslot,

I don't really know what may happened... Do you use a shortcut or joystick button to set full flaps?
I'm not sure that flap vc lever allows you to set full flaps.
To be clear, when I'm saying "full flaps" I'm speaking about the FSX flaps variable not the 3D plane flaps.
The drag chute uses a 4th and invisible position of FS flaps and the flap lever only manage the 3 first flaps position (0 - half - full of 3D visible flaps)...

Let me know if it helps you?
Regards
S.

In case of one's 'd wonder, for the moment I don't have planned to work on the modernized version of this Entendard IVP (a major rework of the VC) so no camo livery is yet planned...

Sylvain

Looks incredibly good Sylvain! Coincidentally, I was looking at IVP photos just last night. I am looking forward to this version as well as the follow up IVM versions later. I'm still enjoying the Beta IVM a lot. It is such a good model, I fly it more than any other FSX Naval Aircraft now!
