v0.7.0

Our largest release to date, featuring entirely custom systems developed and tested meticulously with our pilot staff and QA team.

Please see our curated release notes with detailed information here: https://docs.flybywiresim.com/release-notes/v070/

Note: Throttle calibration is now required.

v0.6.3

This release fixes CTDs observed with the previous stable release v0.6.2 of the A32NX.

Please refer to the release notes here https://github.com/flybywiresim/a32nx/releases/tag/v0.6.2 for a detailed changelog of the stable version.

Changelog

• [MODEL] Remove unused material to fix crash to desktop - @aguther (Andreas Guther)
• [MODEL] Rename default named GLTF materials - @tracernz (Mike)
• [INFO] Thumbnail images and version - @kiwi2021 (Kiwi)

v0.6.2

This is a bugfix (stable) release of the FlyByWire Simulations A32NX for Sim Update 5 (MSFS v1.18.14).

If you run into any issues with the addon, please do the following before asking for help or opening a bug report:

• Use legacy cockpit interaction system
• Read the reported issues page
• Run the addon without custom liveries
• Run the addon without other addons (only for diagnosing, please report the issue if it is caused by a third-party addon!)
• Ensure that you only have one version of A32NX installed (including marketplace edition, please uninstall from the content manager in sim).
• Run the simulator without AI Traffic/Multiplayer/Ground Vehicles
• Run the simulator with less peripherals attached.
• Run a clean installation
• Make sure you are running MSFS on Windows 10 version 2004 or greater
• Ensure that your dynamic page file is set correctly. (Start Menu > Search > sysdm.cpl > Advanced > Performance > Settings > Advanced > Virtual Memory > Paging > ☑️ Automatically Manage Paging File Size for All Drives)
• Please make sure you download the addon via the zipped release below, or the official installer (cloning via Git/Github requires you to build first)

Changelog

• [FLIGHT MODEL] Force usage of modern flight model - @aguther (Andreas Guther)
• [TEXTURE] Corrected fire panel - @ImenesFBW (Imenes)
• [MODEL] Fixed artifacting of pedestal and push buttons - @tyler58546 (tyler58546)
• [LIGHTS] New potentiometer for lights, emissives and screens. - @bouveng (Johan Bouveng)
• [MISC] Fixed flight plan entry and broken lights for SU5 @Saschl (saschl#9432), @Taz5150 (TazX [Z+2]#405)
• [TERR] Fixed terrain radar for SU5 - @2hwk (2Cas#1022)
• [MISC] Change back to airliner hud in external view for SU5 - @donstim (donbikes#4084)

Latest Issues

• Altitude issues causing the plane to "chase" altitude in cruise under certain conditions. There is no fix for this issue in SU5, this is a simulator bug. This is worked around in the development version, but VATSIM will still see incorrect pressure altitude until this is resolved by Asobo (post SU5).
• Intermittent (infrequent) high fuel burn and poor engine performance caused by extremely inaccurate temperature being returned from Live Weather. Use a weather preset until this is resolved by Asobo (post SU5).
• Engine animations sometimes not playing on Loading Cinematics when loading departing on a runway at certain airfields. To be resolved by Asobo (post SU5).
• External strobe lights have inaccurate/bugged behavior sometimes.
• Using the printer may trigger CTDs on occasion. See blurb below on CTDs.
• Toggle Spoilers bindings sometimes may not work This is a Sim issue that affects all planes. To be resolved by Asobo (post SU5).

Common Issues

• Crash to Desktop when loading into the world. UPDATE: There will be a fix in place for this specific CTD after the 2nd MSFS hotfix. Expect a new stable release which will address this shortly.

• Crash to Desktop not when loading in. After this patch, this and other such CTD issues are not caused by the A32NX addon. In SU5 there are multiple overlapping issues which can cause CTDs. These include but are not limited to memory leaks, corrupt installation of update packages (by the MSFS content manager), disconnecting peripherals, crashing when loading many objects in a scene, switching aircraft in the main menu causing CTDs when plane is loaded on the world map (fine on relaunch), incorrect compilation flags being set for WASM compilation causing potentially-lossy assumptions about floating point math. The developer version is particularly badly affected by the last issue (fast math), because of the complex calculations involved in deeper systems. This is not a fault that we can resolve. Available Mitigations:

  • Run the addon without custom liveries
  • Run the addon without other addons (only for diagnosing, please report the issue if it is caused by a third-party addon!)
  • Run the simulator without AI Traffic/Multiplayer/Ground Vehicles
  • Turn Generic Plane models on if you do wish to use traffic
  • Run the simulator with less peripherals attached.

• General autopilot/lateral navigation issues (will be fixed with upcoming custom FMGC)

• AP not following the flight plan (leaking input values affect, but doesn't disconnect the AP)

  • Workaround: Set dead-zones for your input device higher
    • Go to your settings
    • Controls and select your yoke/joystick/controller.
      • After that click the sensitivity button on the top left which should take you to the menu where you can adjust your deadzones. Start with 20% deadzone, if the problem persists keep increasing it. If it's fine with 20% you can then slowly decrease it too.

• Autopilot goes direct to RWY on APP (same with the default A320)

  • Workaround: Use DIR TO a waypoint or selected heading

• Plane is invisible

  • Check your content manager for missing packages
  • Livery/Addon Conflict

• Rudder keybindings not working

  • You have to set your keybinding to rudder axis right and left

• Wing dips on landing (due to bad transition to direct law in flare, same with the default A320)

  • Workaround: use minimal aileron input on landing, or try the development version.

• Black screens / unable to start

  • Conflict with another addon/livery or incorrect installation of the A32NX addon
  • Use our installer

• Upper ECAM displays wrong THR levers position / N1 rating

• ASOBO Aviator/Beta Club A320 liveries are incompatible with the A32NX addon

v0.6.1
