2. Animated 2D gauges(PKP, PNP, US-I).
3. Transponder СОМ-64 re-writed.
4. Textures and geometry of sidepanels, AZS-panels, and most part of a VC repainted.
5. Aircraft.cfg divided to 2, user now can select format of panels just by changing aircraft.cfg. The default setting is 4x3
6. Some minor bugs fixed

+you we have a small surprise for you.

had to reset paths nvu calculator, rsbn calculator (doesn't come with addon), load manager, joystick configurator... as usual. good update, much better visual. surprise probably is the gromov research institute aircraft.
 
Vlad, please, can you tell us, what are the new switches in the overhead? The new switches are in the position of the old Heat pitot switch. I suppose that they are part of the new PPD system but...I can't read what is labeled.

Hahaha....Well isn't only the Gromov livery...
 
Simplified control system or at least regarding the throttles? I noticed my X55 will move all 3 throttles on a single lever command which if I recall correctly, my old X52 would not move all of them in unison...

Nopes (I think, they don't change the joystick utility). The Gromov livery have a 3D model of the M version!!:biggrin-new:
 
Still trying to download. First attempt failed, and now I can't even get a download to start. Hoping this'll work soon.
Any idea if the existing "M" liveries work?
 
Getting a message from Avast anti-virus saying it terminated the download and blocked a Trojan virus. Is anyone else getting a message from their AV program, or is this a false positive?
 
No warnings here I use a combo of MS Security Essentials (which has never let me down in years) and Malwarebytes.
D/l took about 30 seconds no chance to install it but the exe works fine.

Thank you for this :adoration:
 
No vírus here too, but um having trouble with missing gauges. One in pilot side and all of back engineering papel. Did a complete clean instal on FSX.
 
Hmm

I get CTD upon loading the plane( can see it in preview-->so its in the panels).Although I used the installer there is something wrong in the panel's(looking for a non existing sound I guess) Anything known about that?

Thanks

Roland
 
Missing gauges was a problem with the first installer. Try again from the link provided in this post.

Sorry Cees, but It isn't available a simple start-up. Russians are hardcore simmers.

Switches by the pitot and window heat switches? I must be wrong, because their Cyrillic labeling haven't changed in this release. Yes, the switches move independently now and are a bit bugged as they're not properly synchronized between 3D and 2D cockpit but that should be the only change. "PPD" or ППД is in fact the pitot heat control system and I assume you know the special procedure for operating the system prior to takeoff. I've double checked with a training book in front of me about what these particular switches do.

First time I loaded up the Gromov aircraft I did notice the inscription "Tu-154M" but was too lazy to double check and thought it was just a minor bug made by the developer. To my surprise when I went to double check that model is in fact of the Tu-154M and you can download sounds for the Tu-154M. But as the cockpit and performance is the one of the Tu-154B-2 it would be quite pointless. Let's hope Kirill might have some other surprise he can't tell us about and that this external model is just a prelude.

Old Tu-154M liveries from FS9 do not work. This is a separate model. With old Tu-154B-2 liveries from old FS9 you can however import with a little bit of work, not worth it because quality is much less :very_drunk:

It's weird...I don't remember the new PPD system, only the lonely switch in the lower right part of the overhead...:dizzy:

I think too, that the M 3D model is a teaser of an upcoming Full M version modelled. If I am right, the VC changes are only in the Engineer's station.

About the liveries...The paintkit is the same, only we need an additional file called D30_T.

Here a B2 livery with the M model.

Fits perfectly to the M fuselage, only engines 1 and 3 which requires the D30_T file.

Lower overhead not so crowded, which is the lonely right switch on the lower head part you are talking about?... The ventilators switch? The window heat switches and pitot heat switches remained at their locations, nothing changed. Under them, there is NDB/VOR select switches, and then the lonely ventilator switch. (Ventilator unfortunately not modeled). The difference is that the heating system is now upgraded and can support individual functions.

Compared to the crowded overhead of Tu-134, the Tu-154 is a breeze... much more spacier and comfortable, a true pilots aircraft. While I hope for a Tu-154M model too, making one would be extremely difficult as there is other changes in the VC not only engineer panels and overhead... Not to mention completely different performance, engines and some different instruments. Hard, but not impossible.
