Great update 12.06, thanks to all the team. I have a Nvidia GPU and without Zink the simming experience is not as smooth as with Zink ON (my CPU performance are better with Zink ON). I hope Nvidia will resolve the bug asap. Have a nice week end.

These last few comments prove you can’t please all the people all the time….
The momentum of XP12 advancement is pleasing with each update, thank you.
I hope that scenery, insofar as layering and bathymetry with greater library assets is high on the list so that the many scenery designers are able to start creating fully enabled XP12 specific airfields for all to enjoy, whether they are Gateway valid or independent.
Keep up the great work and the dialogue, best wishes to all the team.

In reply to Pat. The clouds have come a long way, however I don't understand why they are de-focused. When you look at clouds either on the ground or in flight in real life, your eyes refocus on the clouds. It's a bit realism killer for me.

In reply to Holger Teutsch. An option to wind back the weather over the past 24hrs would be good. I would like to fly with real weather in my local area, but my opportunity to go flying is limited to evenings. This means real weather is whatever is happening outside, in the cold dark night…would be nice to be able to get out in the warm sunny weather I had that afternoon. I could configure weather manually, but an option to access weather from past 24 hours would be far simpler and much better.

From the release date of x-plane 12 I live in hope that one day the cockpit instruments lighting will be resolved , especially for GA cockpits which are well lit . The major improvement would be if emissive instruments , eg pdf,mfd,gps etc could be emissive I.e not subjected to the existing lighting model only which makes those allmost unreadable in daylight unless you put your head “ in the cockpit “ and then zoom in on the display eg PFD . In my real world airplanes mostly VFR in bright sunlight I look out and if I glance down at an emissive instrument it is pin sharp bright and readable . These are normally in real world 1500 nits brightness or higher. Unfortunately after a year of posts there has been no movement on this so I stick with x-plane 11 which focussed on the pilot experience rather than playing catch-up with other sims on external bunting like beautiful sunsets , water puddles on the ground etc

How feasible would it be to have real time scenery so that I could, say recognize my house if I flew over it?

Thank you, you have taken a huge step forward in improving XP12. But I’m sad that there will be no graphics fixes in 12.07. Flying in dark cabins is not a great pleasure 🙂 This is my personal opinion.

When do we get the NAVAID edit feature, so we can move the navaids around and create our own approches or marker beacons in X-Plane 12?

Fantastic work so far! I’m now going to purchase XP 12. You guys are killing it.

Vehicle road traffic – ever consider making it more or less depending on time of day, and eve day of the week? Would be really cool to use the real world traffic maps to determine traffic jams etc.

Anyway, everything about this sim is maturing nicely. Great works everyone!
