Consider supporting me, thank you!

New fuselage, wing and gear. model, textures, normal map; Everything.

• Completely remodeled exterior. Yes. From the ground up.
• Up to 15x Higher res models, from 20k to 300k triangles. No large framerate drops.
• Supports 4x better texture quality. You can select res to save VRAM.
• Accurate models from actual 777-300ERs.
• Normal mapped for accurate lighting
• Removed bugs of HDR rendering. No artefacts.

Improved flight dynamics

• Major change: length of plane corrected from an inaccurate 190ft to actual 212'7".
• Major change: wingspan of the plane corrected from an inaccurate 170ft to actual 242'4".
• Flight dynamics are compared with other commercial products from P3D.
• Corrected lift & drag cooefficients for airfoils to be more realistic at different AOAs.
• Corrected engine curves for N1 and N2.
• Corrected flap lift & drag cooefficients.

Improved wing realism

• Major change: wing remodelled entirely.
• Wing flexes in five locations instead of three
• Light is correctly positioned on wing
• Flap and slat deploy is reanimated
• Speedbrake deploy & roll pattern is correctly simulated.
• Horizontal stabilizer is movable and flexes
• Better physics calculations for wing flex

Improved gear realism

• Major change: Gear remodelled from diagrams, similar to the Manilla Project.
• Gear is reanimated.
• Main gear steering is visually simulated with information from FCOM.
• Gear deflects from -4.8˚ when takeoff to 11.1˚ when off the ground which is accurate to the B777-300ER.
• Drag cooefficients reset.
• Braking cooefficients fixed. The plane does not glide around at high speeds.

Added cockpit features

• The Electronic Flight Bag, touchpad and standby instruments panel added.
• Redid textures for some things
• The MFD is being prepared for 0.43
• FMC fixes

• Improved XP11 compatiblity
• Improved GitHub compatiblity
• Support layed out for future dev
• Removed tons of bugs
• Changed license

v0.41.1

April 10, 2019
Consider supporting me, thank you!

* Removed redundancies (removed 200MB)
* XP11 N1, N2, THR curves are correct
* XP11 now tested and compatible.
* Moved to Github

(XP10 people don't really have any improvements since 0.41.0, look forward to 0.42!)
