I was wondering... I'm building an A320 home cockpit, and I plan on having mostly functional buttons/switches/knobs. Will there be a way for me to assign my switches etc. to the correct functions? FSX doesn't have built-in SimConnect commands for many of the buttons, so I need some other way (I think).

Hello,

I already own a 320 Home Cockpit and so the question from Patrick is important for me too.

Three additional questions please, I think interesting for some Airbus-Cockpit-owners:

Beside the mainscreen (showing the VC) I have separate Mini-Monitors for PFD, ND, SD and ED.
. Will it be possible to cut these screens out and put it to the respective monitors?

- does every switch have an appropriate key-command or are there mouse-clicks only too? And if so, are they compatibel with FSUIPC.

- will it be possible to make the CPFlight FCU320 http://www.cpflight....rodotti_fcu.asp compatible, esp. functions additional to FSX-standard (EXPED etc.)?

If any question is already answerd, I am sorry but I could n't find!

Best regards an thank you
Gunter

- We have no plans to make 2d panels and making these standby instruments as separate instruments will be hard as they are full 3d instrument.
- No promises on the key commands but we will look at it. Having most functions as default as possible will of course help a lot.
- Can't say, I have never used that bit of hardware, but again, the fact we use FSX functions as often as possible will help a lot.

Mathijs, what is the FPS difference when you had the ND off and on?

That's pretty cool. Aerosoft has two Airbus aircraft that they will be releasing in short order. The A300 and the A320.
Aerosoft pumps them out faster than Toulouse.
I think it is great to have some choices in Airbus sims now for FSX.

This Plane must have a United A320 they are huge users of the Airbus A320 family

Actually, it's three! A300, A320, and A321!!!

Hello Folks,

Quote in this instance I believe we mean marking a post up or down. I have noticed that some posts have been marked down for absolutely no reason at all.
Like Timo mentioned this and was marked down to -2. There was absolutely nothing wrong with his post and yet some decide to mark it down.

If your not sure of its purpose then dont use it please.

Hello Mathijs,

new Screens from the VC ?

Mathijs, any new shots of perhaps the IAE powered A321s?

Depends a bit on what you see, but I would say about 15%. Remember we want to do this in XML so people can play with it if they way, that has a small penalty in speed (not s much as people think though).

Yes! And also the Lufthansa livery with that.

Mathijs, she is truly gorgeous !!!

It looks great, Although I do think that the different metal plates are way too visible. In real life you can barely see the different plates. But here on your model they are very clearly visible. It's a bit like what Abacus does, they add so many details in their textures that you just shouldn't see. And they leave out the ones you should see (happily you don't dump stuff you should see).

Anyway that's just my opinion...

In screenshots these things always show up very strong, on the moving model they move and blend. In the same way they are always hidden in compressed videos. That's why we like to go to events and shows because these aircraft always look better in the sim.

Mathijs? Maybe its time for a new video? Externals and sounds wound be delightful!

Oh, please. Why don't you just take two or three minutes browsing the thread before you post?

The Lufthansa Livery looks amazing
