Hi Y’all,

The point of the beta is to find and fix bugs. So the value of a clean install is to _differentiate_ between bugs in the core sim and bugs that have an interaction with plugins. So if the bug goes away without the plugin, we can narrowly focus our search on the interaction the plugin has with X-plane. If the plugin is gone, we can rule out the plugin entirely, which helps because plugins can induce a really wide variety of code paths.

Hi amelingu,

Well, what is a clean install? ๐Ÿ™‚ I can’t live without some plugins, like X-Ivap (to fly on IVAO), a few add-on aircrafts, and a few photoreal sceneries.

But I definitely don’t have any weather related or cloud texture add-ons. I am keeping that default for now.

I think this should be very easy for LR to replicate. Just fly in some IMC at night. This is “bugging” so many people, it must be easy to reproduce (pun semi-intended).

But I will file the bug, and include a log.txt for lulz, why not. It’s for free.

Cheers (and please fix this) ๐Ÿ™‚

Yes, file a bug. We don’t TRACK blog comments, so if you leave a blog comment and don’t file a bug, there’s a good chance we lose track of it and it never gets fixed. Bugs go in the bug base and we can find all unfixed bugs.

Thank you! Will try the door drefs or sliders.

Hi Bruno,
As per their recent comment in the next topic, yes, you should definitely file a bug report because this is very likely to be ignored here.

This bug is annoying me to ๐Ÿ™‚

It’s always good to include the log.txt. are you sure this is on a clean install? I would strongly recommend to film a clean install and file the log.txt of the flight.

We’re not pre-announcing the release times for the cities, sorry.

Ah gotcha. Thanks Ben. Is there an update list of cities you can share or when Chicago is coming?

I may have misunderstood from the flight sim con saying new cities( plural ) would come in 11.10 / this summer. Perhaps I missed an update citing serially.

Only one city (London) in 11.10. The rest of the cities will come out serially, one per update. I don’t think we, at any point, said that the entire set of cities to date would go in 11.10 – the plan has ALWAYS been to release them serially, hence Vegas in 11.05.

They’re packs that come in the sim – you don’t need WED. If you don’t like them, disable the packs.

But I have asked a few times with no reply to a valid inquiry. Can you confirm if the rest of the city scenery such as Chicago etc will release in full with 11.10 as suggested it would have came this summer ?

Also, will these city scenery objects be simpe files one can remove or re add into the custom scenery folder & not have to utilize WED etc. many custom scenery packs for cities are available but your assets look better, so it would be cool to easily blend them.
ie I never liked the generic LEGO brick aerosoft airports forced upon users , so I just deleted the folders.

Thanks. Stay safe in Vegas.
