    Just checked, and the count-down timer works as expected for me. FUNC to select the timer mode, CRSR to activate the cursor, numerical keys to enter time, and then START/STOP to start/stop the timer. Feel free to share a video if you're still having trouble!

    FYI - I tried reaching out to you through the justflight support ticket system - ticket #95631 - Dan said he sent you a message but it was back while you were finalizing the Caravan so may have gotten buried.

    I suspect you were facing into a stiff wind? Asobo changed something about propeller dynamics after I released the Duke that sometimes results in spinning propellers when facing into the wind. I think this should be much improved after some unreleased improvements I've been making to my engine physics simulation. However, 29" MP is correct for the shutdown right engine, as ~29" is ambient pressure.

    @Black-Square Hi Nick! It's really great when developers listen to their customers. It shows how committed they are to improving their systems and making the simulation even more immersive. I'm an Xbox Series X user, and as you know, things are very limited here. The option to import the flight plan directly from Simbrief is very welcome, although I still prefer manually entering everything into the CDU. What I would really like — and I know this isn't the topic of discussion — is to be able to view Navgraph charts on the tablet and to track the aircraft on their map (Simlink feature). I have no idea how complex or easy that would be to implement, but it would certainly be very useful. I miss having that feature to see airport ground positions, follow taxi routes, and so on. It would be exactly what Just Flight already does on their tablet. I hope that one day this comes to the Starship and the other BS aircraft that use the same tablet. Alan / From Brazil

    I was getting consistent crashes when running my Stock OC on my Nvidia card since SU5. I disabled it using debug mode on Nvidia Control Panel for now and have not seen a ctd since.

    @Black-Square Sorry about that one - for some reason I thought real taxiways changed the pavement markers too. Here's another one today: CYHZ Runway 32/14 - all of the signs say 23-05. Runway 23-05 is correctly marked. Let me know if you want me to continue to tag you on these - or just post and let you get to them when you can.

    @ToucHDowN514 I cannot tell you why, but this is the first time I've seen this post. The red pointer on the HSI-85 is called the "Bearing Pointer". It functions to provide situational awareness by pointing directly to the station that you might be tracking an arbitrary radial/bearing to/from. As such, you are correct, that it will point to the NAV1 station when the HSI source is NAV1. It will point to the next waypoint (or OBS waypoint) when the HSI source is GPS, and it will point to the virtual RNAV waypoint when the HSI source is RNAV. I believe everything is working correctly in the code, and I've already fixed the manual. Does that answer your questions?

    Hi! Just wanted to hear if there is a chance that we might see an update to the wing model in the future? Best regards, Jakob

    If the windshield heat is on (check the live schematic in the tablet to confirm), then you really shouldn't be collecting windshield icing like that. However, the speed of accumulation I would think mostly relates to the weather conditions in the simulator. Are you using a weather addon, perhaps, that's creating a very thin layer of cloud in what looks like clear air?

    my 2 cents. i have no need for hot swap. i am fine installing the variant i want, so GTN or GNS. and cant you reduce your variants offered. do you really need single dual GTN, 750, 650, GNS GTNXI each and every combination. i understood that Avidyne is a one to one replacement for the GNS530, so no changes in the 3d model needed. would love to see the Avidyne in the Duke for example or TBM850.

    Ah, thank you for uploading the video. That's exactly what I needed to see what you were talking about. That is an artifact of MSFS 2024's exposure compensation. You might be familiar with exposure compensation as the bright white skies you experience for a few seconds when looking up from a dark instrument panel. There are settings related to exposure compensation in the simulator's graphics menu, and you might be able to find more online about how to fine tune this feature. Please let me know if there is anything else I can do for you in the meantime.

    A BlackSquare Twin Otter would be amazing. It would fit right into the BlackSquare portfolio and is something different from the existing aircraft.

    @Black-Square On #2 I meant an accumulator failure.. It was a slip on my part. I had reported this to you a few months ago. I edited my OP to correct my mistake. On #3, when I am demonstrating procedures for OEI, sometimes I can't get the prop to fully feather and I have to dive to get the inop engine RPM well above 1500 rpm and then quickly pull to feather detent. It's never that specific to get the prop to feather in the Baron.

    If I understand what you're looking to do, this would be determined solely by the font you include in your package. You should be able to accomplish almost any effect you're looking for, so long as you're willing to edit the font.

    Indeed, it is correct! You can see the early renders here, but an update is long overdue. The aircraft is essential done now, with the exception of sound. I recorded sound from a turbonormalized 114 this past September, and Boris will begin work very soon. The 114 will be my next aircraft released, which I'm expecting to be this June or July. I've had a lot of fun developing some new immersion features and unique avionics for it, so I'm glad you're looking forward to it! Yes, it will include the aftermarket turbonormalizing package, three-blade scimitar propeller, and optional electric air conditioner too.

    @Buzz thanks for posting that, the Command 114, 685 and 690B look interesting, especially the 690B. Hoping the King Air is next to release.

    @SchnauzerMan Hello, I am here, always working on my airplanes I don't really know. Just not enough posts to warrant it, I guess. Just Flight manages the forums. I just develop the aircraft. Have you updated your TDS installation lately? Those all sound like issues inherent to the Working Title G3X and TDS GTNxi interconnectivity, not the aircraft specifically. I haven't heard any other reports like this, despite the aircraft being update about a year ago with these new features, and being tested by the TDS developer himself, so hopefully it's just an outdated installation. It would also be helpful to know if you're using MSFS 2020 or 2024, in case we need to provide more information for him to investigate.

    @Rich Hi Rich! I think I have noticed a bug with new installers you're using for the Caravan Pro. On initial install, you can select a custom directory, which I did for v1.0. However, after downloading the updated v1.1 installer from the website just now, here is what happened. Normally, the installers can handle updates themselves without having to uninstall the old version. However, this time, even though it said in the installers UI that is was updating from v1 to v1.1 - it did not respect my original custom directory. It deleted the old v1.0 files, and then installed the new v1.1 into the MSFS 2024 community folder like the legacy installers would. Could it be rectified so that when updating an existing addon with InstallShield, it respects your custom install directory of the existing installed addon? Thank you

    @Buzz It’s not about staring at the plane from the outside, it’s about visual consistency. Since the spinners are part of the pilot's field of view, a static ice effect on a rotating part looks like a glaring oversight. Black Square is known for 'study-level' systems, so the visuals should match that level of detail. As I mentioned, Just Flight has already proven it’s possible to do it right.

    Sorry to hear that. To the best of my knowledge, I haven't done anything different in the configuration files between any of my aircraft in this respect. I know this feature has been inconsistent in MSFS 2024 since release, however. Perhaps someone else will chime in with some advice. You could also try Just Flight Support. Since they deal with a lot more aircraft than just my own, they might have seen this before.
