darem 106 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Folks, is this REALLY necessary? I mean, you personalized the installation, you ask for a serial when installing - but asking for the serial again with an update? It's just soooo annoying. What did you personalize the installation for then? 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damocles 24 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 That's the same for all updates on all products.... .....it may prevent or hinder the theives from updating their illegal copies... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not. Know what you are talking about. Update your GAP's - no serial needed, for example. My grief is that even with the additional security measures Aerosoft has undertaken (understandably so), I, as a legal customer, have to enter my serial over and over again. And it makes no sense at all regarding security. The serial is the same for the bus and the update, so if you have entered it once, you will have it for the update as well. So: it's just annoying for paying customers. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smartassambly ? As one of the developers I never heard of that ! Sure that no other application running in the background is causing this ?

TB10 Driver 17 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Still getting the heavy nose UP on AP disconnect. no change from 1.20 to 1.21 SamZ - This was seen and noted during beta testing. The devs are aware of it and I'm sure it will be resolved. Bob Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mason-dom 11 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Darem made his point. We certainly do not want to loose time (even seconds) to piracy. As a matter of fact, we are loosing time everywhere. Enough is enough. BUT, (there is a but), I began to fly the Airbus X with much enthousiasm :funkychick_s: to finish with a certain level of disapointment Example : Whatever is the version (1.00, 1,01, hotfix 1,10, update 1.20, update 1.21.....) I am unable to make a correct manual landing. Can i make a casual manual landing with an Airbus ? What if the cross winds are too strong to permit a full autoland ?

Damocles 24 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 What issues are you having with a manual landing? I'm heading into EGLL (eta 20mins) as I'm giving 1.21 a test flight so I'll be able to test that aspect.. Edit: Looking a the real time weather it's 190@7kts variable wind 160-230. So I will anticipate a cross-wind manual landing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fratfw 12 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Same here nose up end down after disconnect Still getting the heavy nose UP on AP disconnect. no change from 1.20 to 1.21 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damocles 24 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Uuummm!, interesting! With V1.11 I could do a full manual landing - FD off, AP off, 3 Flight Control buttons off - I would have full control. No issues Tonight with the same configuration, but with v1.21, I had the follow:- Manual landing! Altimeter set I FBW until 10Nm out, 3 Flight Control buttons off - everything fine..continues on FBW ILS indicators active and in place, AP off, FD off - I get a steep nose up pitch - I look at trim, it's set to 2.5 up. I neutralise it to regain ILS fix, Descending to runway, with a mild 7kts crosswind at 187 ( runway 272), nothing to worry about and at around 100 ft I have an uninitiated pitch up. I have to push the yoke forward, quite hard to land OK......taxi to terminal blah blah. Passengers are fine, probably didn't notice My guess, is that it's been hardwired now to over-compensate the hard FBW auto landings despite being in full manual. Could be wrong, as usual I have a scheduled a full reformat OS and FSX tomorrow so I will try again later this week to see if this is just a one off.

7neophyte7 2 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 Same here nose up end down after disconnect Weird, had also this problem. But with my first flight with 1.21 I didn't have the nose up down anymore. Will take a new flight tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damocles 24 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 I wonder if it IS altimeter related.....as I cannot use the b button to auto set it. For some reason Pro Flight Emulator stops this from happening so I have to source real-world setting which my not sit well with PFE or REX real-time weather......... Despite being in FBW off mode it still might want to try to flare at a set height.....and if the altimeter is wrong it may do this at the wrong altitude, ...again, I could be wrong ( I might set this as my tag, due to recent posts ).

Andy B. 40 Posted October 5, 2010 Share Posted October 5, 2010 The reason for having to put the key in again when reinstalling is to stop pirated copies from working, all companies that use keys revoke keys from time to time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mason-dom 11 Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I All ! Ok did a new manual landing this morning. On my surprise, everything is ok with update 1.21. I did not enconter the nose dip effect. The thing is, the aircraft is wimpy, lazy, and so, consequently, a bit difficult to fly. But, an other good new coming is the improved framerate. I thing i gained 4-6 fps. If i a play a lot with my external views, the VC cockpit panel takes a second to refresh (blanck textures effect) but thing goes a lot better. So, this aircraft is back !

Guest Dick77 Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 Hello Shaun, Just for information. I updated from 1.20 to 1.21 and found that the F12 key now displays the cabin as "EZ dok Aircraft Universal camera" View 00 instead of the Overhead Panel. I will deinstall AirbusX 1.20 + update and again reinstall with Version 1.21. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maxloading 48 Posted October 6, 2010 Share Posted October 6, 2010 I did a few flights around the block to test it and it works fine now, no problems at all,:the only gripes I have is I cannot save my own flight plans. I hope this will be possible in the advance version. Keep up the good work. AlainV Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
