[SYSTEMS]
Rewrote idle descent pathing generation
Rewrote idle descent calculation math
Fixed random early application of descent speed limits
Fixed wrong speed target being used in descent
Fixed managed alt modes not being available in engine out conditions
Ripped out the old Cost Index calculation method, which was wildly inaccurate, and replaced it with all-new data, and all-new calcs for all phases. Climb, cruise, and descent.
Improved Cost Index calculation, should now provide more accurate values during all phases of flight
Overhauled the system that loads per-livery configuration settings and determines which engine type is shown on the displays.
Fixed brakes increasing temperature when in a GSX pushback.
Reworked the brake temperature model to accurately model the heat generated by braking, and dissipation both by radiative and convective transfers. Including a simulation of the difference in real disc temperature vs indicated temperature.
New brakes now have variances in disc mass.
Adjusted cooling dynamics for brakes in gear up (closed environment w/ 0 wind) configuration
Parking brake now affects how fast brakes cool down

[TJ]

Eh ben... ça valait le coup d'attendre !

Heureusement que les check-lists sur Airbus sont moins longue que ce changelog.

Bon, après ça, TSU, il manque encore quelque chose ?

[tsu]

Pas mal d'informations à prendre en compte :
https://fenixsim.com/blog/entries/2024- ... 2_release/
et
https://kb.fenixsim.com/block-2
(Et pour ceux qui ont GSX Pro : https://kb.fenixsim.com/gsx-integration)

Entre autres, redémarrage recommandé après installation et les anciennes livrées ne fonctionnent plus.

Bonjour
comment regler la vitesse d'alignement des IRS ? ils parlent d'annonces cabine mais je n'entends rien

[Delpat]

Je constate que c’est le bonheur cette MAJ tant attendue espérons qu’un correctif arrive avant fin 2024

...comment regler la vitesse d'alignement des IRS ? ils parlent d'annonces cabine mais je n'entends rien...

Pourquoi vouloir régler la vitesse d'alignement des centrales ? C'est 7 min incompressibles (et dans la "vraie vie", quand il fait très froid, ça peut même monter à 15 min).

[tsu]

Je constate que c’est le bonheur cette MAJ tant attendue espérons qu’un correctif arrive avant fin 2024

Il y a effectivement un peu de boulot dont, entre autres, les recalibrages des volets, des manettes de gaz et des vues et la mise à jour Navigraph.
Mais une fois effectués, l'aéronef est largement exploitable et volable.

[pacha35]

Bonjour,

je confirme ce qu'a dit TSU, je suis arrivé à tout régler pour retrouver la pleine fonctionnalité de l'avion, GSX compris.
Les anciennes livrées sont obsolètes. Il y a un nouveau "Livery Manager" pour installer les livrées très nombreuses proposées (95 dont 2 pour Air France, l'ancienne et la nouvelle). On peut sélectionner les livrées que l'on veut avoir. Elles sont toutes en 8k.
Comme pour l'avion, tout est chargé dans Community et doit donc être déplacé dans Addons Linker pour ceux qui l'utilisent.

[Delpat]

Cela me rassure ! Car en parcourant les différents réseaux sociaux cela semblait être la Berezina pour certains , même si cela pouvait provenir de différents mods incompatibles
Du coup j’attendais pour installer cette MAJ .Merci à vous tous pour vos précisions.

[pacha35]

Bonsoir,

un des ajouts des plus attendus de cette nouvelle version : le remote MCDU.
Sa particularité, c'est qu'il se lance à partir du remote EFB (et pas depuis l'EFB du simu).

Dans le navigateur de votre tablette, il faut être sur le même réseau (en Wifi par exemple) et se connecter au remote EFB : 192.168.x.xx:8083 (x.xx sont les valeurs de l'adresse IP locale du PC sur lequel tourne MSFS).

La page "EFB" vous permet toutes les fonctions qui existaient avant avec un nouvel icône pour accéder au MCDU.


Deux points négatifs :
- chaque fois qu'on appuie sur une touche , un claquement sec et désagréable se fait entendre.
- l'accès au MCDU ne fonctionne pas sur les smartphones un peu anciens (vraisemblablement utilisation d'instructions nouvelles apportées par les dernières mises à jour de votre smartphone). Vérifié sur iPhone/iPad, à confirmer sur matériel Androïd.

NB : j'ai posé la question à Fenix concernant le version d'IOS (Apple), voici la réponse :

"Due to the techniques used to develop the MCDU, the minimum iOS version is 16.2. "

Bonjour
Sacrée version V2 du Fénix !
Quelle galère ; je ne regrette qu’une chose, c’est de l’avoir téléchargée..je ne volais pratiquement et uniquement que sur l’ancienne version que je maîtrisais bien et qui me donnais entière satisfaction.
Bon, c’est fait faut assurer…
Tout est à reprendre dans mon cas, deux jours que je suis dessus a me casser la tête, et enfin je viens de réussir un vol complet sans anomalies, je n’y croyais plus!
Reste entre autre l’alarme f/ctl l Sidestick fault calibrate null zone qui retentit à chaque vol; ça ne vient pas de mes commandes ou manettes, je les ai recalibrées, mais je me souviens d’un post sur le forum où il était question de ce sujet et ça concernait autre chose? Un doublon? Ou autre, je ne me souviens plus; quelqu’un se rappelle de cela?
Toutes mes vues cockpit personnalisées ont été à reprendre, heureusement qu’il y a le wiki pour se rappeler comment on fait, quand ça marche on oublie comment on fait; merci aux animateurs de ces rubriques…
V2 a approfondir…..et apprécier ?..
Bons vols à tous
FFF37

C’est une « panne » répertoriée par Fenix déjà dans la version précédente avec une solution possible ici :
https://kb.fenixsim.com/sidestick-fault
Elle est peut-être toujours en vigueur sur la nouvelle version.

On trouvera aussi sur le site Fenix quelques « trucs et astuces » utiles spécifiques à la V2 :

[Fly for Fun 37]

Bonsoir
Mes soucis venaient de quantités de doublons sur les touches clavier; j’ai mis de l’ordre dans tout ça et ça fonctionne à merveille.
J’ai appliqué aussi les sensibilités Fenix, cet avion est très précis et agréable aux commandes, peut-être je les ajusterai, à voir..
Seul soucis ce soir: le PA ne veut pas toujours s’enclencher, ni avec la touche Z, ni avec la souris sur le switch, je l’entends « coller » mais il ne s’enclenche pas, et miracle il se connecte ;
Pourtant mes paramètres de vol sont bons, rien ne doit s’y opposer, je n’ai rien fait de plus ni de moins qu’hier et je n’avais pas ce soucis, à confirmer..
Vous avez une idée?
J’ai galéré, mais quelle récompense ce soir avec deux vols cours La Rochelle en 09 et Bordeaux en 23.
Merci pour les conseils..
Bons vols
