Work is still continuing on improving the Pilot Edition of Majestic Software‘s exceptionally well regarded DASH8-Q400 turboprop airliner, with a new hotfix being released today, bringing the package to version 1.00802.
The list of fixes is quite long, so we’ll post them after the cutline – press “Read more”, below, to see them. if you’d rather just download the patch and find out what’s in it later, simMarket Q400 customers can log into their account and the hotfix will be available in their order or download history.
List of changes since 1.00801:
Instruments
+ Incorrect altitudes propagation of the LNAV waypoints on the ND is fixed
Systems
+ Composite Brakes temperature simulation improved Livery-specific
+ passenger announcements logic fixed incorrect DME receive ranges are
+ fixed BC mode is working added AUTO_RUDDER_FACTOR into the
+ [FLIGHTCONTROLS] section of mjc84.ini. This factor will be taking into
+ account when the autocoordination is enabled in the FSX Receiving
+ range for NDB/VOR/DME adjusted Morse codes playback after “Y” letter
+ fixed Cone of Silence simulation repaired VOR OS mode is repaired
FMS
+ Procedural Turns navigation fixed
+ RCL function fixed
+ Manual overfly waypoints selection fixed Overfly flag retrieval as
+ part of the procedure from the database is implemented RNP based NAV
+ deflection is added LNAV turn anticipation logic is re-done Automated
+ activation of VNAV during approach is added VNAV transitions between
+ waypoints with different altitudes will be smoother SIDs will be
+ scanned for runway transitions when presented by the FMS (LFPG case)
+ Fixed Intercept to AF Curve transition Fixed approach course
+ activation timing Fixed VNAV governing within the arc path FAF course
+ will now be set the same as EOA course VNAV will not provide a slope
+ for offset approaches New LNAV algorithm for line to curve, and curve
+ to line transition Fixed the incorrect IAF course for some approaches
