jardesign-a330-xp11UPDATE: Exclusive Screenshots X-Plane 11 with JARDesign A330

On behalf of JARDesign lead developer Evgeny Romanov, we’re pleased to offer you their X-Plane 11 efforts to test their models with X-Plane 11.

What is this and what happens with old XP10 Airbus A330 aircraft version:

  • Objects and textures are reworked according with new material system of XP11
  • NavData was removed from XP11 by Laminar Research and fixed for our A330 (add _navdata with old Aerosoft cycle direct to a330 folder).
  • Reworked the A330 sound system which was broken, because of the X-Plane mastervolume datarefs. Now, you can use volume selectors from upper Plugins -> Sound3D menu.
  • Reworked the A330 rain system which was broken.
  • Added a diagnostic plugin. This can help if an installations was wrong/failed (red message at screen if a problem happens).
  • The frame rates (FPS) where too low compare with XP10. Please use minimum visual settins to get normal frame rates.
  • Reworked will be done for the aircraft perfomance and fuel calculation which was broken in XP11. Final rework will be done in there XP11 final last stage, thus after XP11 has been released.
  • Reworked/fixed the navigation system which was broken and FMGS was reworked to make it compatible with new XP FMS. Since this is a beta, please report via the dedicated JARDesign beta forum.
  • Fixed cockpit buttons night lighting which was broken.
  • And much more.
