X-RAAS 2.0.1a (embeddable version for aircraft developers)

DO NOT download this unless you are developing aircraft models for X-Plane! This plugin will not work as a stand-alone X-Plane plugin.

This version of X-RAAS is designed for embedding into aircraft by developers who wish to ship X-RAAS integrated into their aircraft model. It is a fully functional version of the plugin for Windows, Mac and Linux, 32- and 64-bit on all platforms and works on both X-Plane 10 and X-Plane 11.
Since the plugin is meant for embedding into aircraft "plugins" folders, the documentation is shipped in a separate ZIP archive. To facilitate integration, see AvionicsIntegrationGuide.pdf in this archive. This document will explain everything that integration with X-RAAS can do for you. You are encouraged to distributed the UserManual.pdf from the documentation archive as part of your aircraft's documentation package.

X-RAAS 2.0.1

This is a bugfix release that addresses an assertion failure when reading a broken apt.dat with duplicate runway entries with reversed runway end IDs.

X-RAAS 2.0.0

This is the second major release of X-RAAS and the first major release of the complete rewrite, X-RAAS 2.

Version 2.0, release candidate 5

Changes:

• Implemented RIFF format dumping.
• Relaxed WAV fmt header length check requirement to cope with weirder WAV files.
• Corrected duplicate image caption.
• Removed superfluous part of a sentence talking about CFIT.
• Corrected runway alignment heading threshold in docs.
• Added Pascal Reichel to tester list.

Version 2.0, release candidate 4

Changes:

• Rewritten documentation in pdfTeX to obtain more consistent formatting.
• Added lots more error checking and reporting to the OpenAL integration to check for all kinds of weird underlying OpenAL errors.

Version 2.0, release candidate 3

Changes:

• Implemented parsing of APPCH procedures to extract the runway GPA.
• Removed guessing at the TCH & GPA by scanning the location of GS antennas.
• Documented all the new options in the PDF and the sample config file.
• Included sample config in distribution package.
• Added the auto_disable_notify option to the config GUI.
• Switched from '--' to '#' for comments in the config file. The legacy '--' combo is retained for backwards compatibility.

Version 2.0, Release candidate 2

Changes:

• Fixed regression when enabling use_tts would crash the sim on attempting to emit an annunciation.

Version 2.0, Release candidate 1

Changes:

• Added harder detection of malformed VGSI entries.
• Made GS antenna elevation always be equal to the threshold elevation for auto-computation purposes (avoids strange behaviors for GS antennas with bad elevation values).
• Fixed error when the cache was manually removed and subsequently the user used the menu entry to recreate it.
• Fixed incorrect cache location in gui.c after it has been moved to Output/caches.
• Bumped cache version to regenerate caches using newly hardened algorithm.

Version 2.0, second beta release

Changes:

• Fixed assertion failure when an invalid runway ID is detected in an apt.dat.
• Hardened parsers to perform much more validation of the scenery database.
• Bumped X-RAAS cache version number to force cache rebuild using new algorithm.
• Implemented auto-translation of US runway numbers in scenery database.
• Implemented stripping of 'T' from earth_nav.dat files referencing runways using true heading numbers (e.g. "08T" at BGTL).

Version 2.0, first beta release

Changes:

• Fixed incorrect conditional when computing PAPI/VASI correspondence to runways in X-Plane 11.
• Switched to OSX ABI 10.6 to support all platforms which X-Plane 10 ran on.
• Code formatting and style fixes.
