New update is available for all the Reality Expansion Packs. It’s free for current users. Go grab it at the X-Plane store .
New Manuals
The major improvement of this release is the new User Manuals. In fact, we revised them to
- Use a better document structure
- Provide clear installation instructions
- Give information about the onboard systems and how to use them
Here you can give a quick look at the manuals. You also find them in the package.
- Carenado Cessna 210 Centurion
- Default Cessna 172SP
- Beechcraft Baron B58
- Carenado F33A Bonanza
- Carenado V35B Bonanza
- ASDG Piper PA-18 Super Cub
Small improvements here and there
Among other small things, this update improves the static elements management. That is, they can now be toggled all together using a menu entry as well as a custom command: simcoders/rep/walkaround/static_elements/toggle
It is now possible to fix all the onboard systems using a single command: simcoders/rep/systems/fix_all
The hypoxia at low levels now takes much more time to take effect. You can find a small table with the time it takes to take effect in the user manual.
Last thing, the installer has been improved to be compatible with – virtually – all the mods for the default aircrafts you find around the web. That is, REP is natively compatible with all of them. Even with those not published yet.
