If possible - please cal me skype j.a.romanov - we will check online what happen wrong

Works beautifully on my machine. Still a little jerky with 8 active aircraft, no wonder, but otherwise EXCELLENT.

sure, i have it worked well, our beta-testers have it well on Windows 10 and XP11.20. Please call me skype if not work - we will try to determinate this issue reason.

Same here

For me works for now, but does not import - export plan from-to aircraft FMS JAR330 and not set Squawk code in this plane with command. Other things work fine.

My setup: Windows 10 (64-bit), Z490 AORUS PRO AX, INTEL i7 10700k, 32GB DDR4 RAM, NVIDIA Geforce GTX 2070S 8GB

My Fleet: JD320-V3.8R1 with copilot, JD330-V4.4B3 with copilot, ZIBO 737-800X,
Utilities: X-LIFE Deluxe verversion 4.30 latest, FMcar latest, GHD ver. latest, X Camera,BSS JAR A320 V4,Better pushback

installed and seems to work out of box. Windows 10 with all plugins enabled. I updated XP to the 10.25RC1 as well as the GND plugin

PPL holder, 4790k+gtx1070+32gb , win10

It seems really good on framerates so far. One issue i just noticed. The JS41 aircraft which takes off, got switched to a B747 at the moment it took off and now 2 aircraft models are shown. can you look into that?

Now the pictures

PPL holder, 4790k+gtx1070+32gb , win10

please check what default x-plane traffic is Off

One more idea - please try to put this .dll to X-Life plugin folder.

Another way - call me skype j.a.romanov to try sort out this issue.

Loaded now, thank you Jar.

But very bad FPS once is turned on, -30 or so, cpu issue.

Import/export is fixed for actual build. You may just update .xpl files

Squawk code set may not work with some aircraft with custom Squawk system. This is normal.
