For me, the CVR needle on the appears to be missing in the gauge. When I press the test button, nothing happens.

I’d love to see an operative EFDARS panel. Don’t need all of the functions, but enough to be able to go in and complete the normal preflight items would be satisfactory. It’s the little things like this that add to the immersion.

Is a little over-the-top? Why differ the ability from the A340, where it was really well done? The brown dirt all over the airplane, really?

Couldn't agree more, even with DLSS Perfomance it exceeds the 12GB of VRAM of my 4070. Almost unplayable.

First of all, I am very grateful to ini for providing such a great plane, but there are still some problems. For example, when I use the handle to fly, the nose wheel will twitch when turning on the ground, unable to turn normally, and the animation of the foot rudder is gone, and the foot rudder twitches together. I don't know if the handle players have encountered this problem. I hope the staff of ini can answer it. Thank you.😁

On my RTX 4080 with 16 GB VRAM I run out of VRAM when I pan the camera towards the flight engineer deck. This happens on both busy airports on the ground and in small default airports. Is there a plan to include a variant with lower texture resolution or without the cabin perhaps? I believe this will improve performance for those of us who can't afford a 24 or 32 GB video card and still want to enjoy the plane on high graphics settings 🙂 Somehow, this is the only 3rd party add-on airplane that eats so much VRAM on my current graphics configuration and usual airports I fly to and from.

This seems unnessacery, I refuse to belive that I have to remove other add-ons to repair one add on. All mine have been around the 4-6 hour mark so this doesn't help. I did this and had a Ghost WASM crash 6 hour into a flight.

If you look at the PERF page, it also changes to DES mode, even though you just dialed in a new altitude, with out actually pulling descent.

I would agree with all of this. VRAM consumption is quite high compared to all other "heavy" addons, even running AutoFPS. Closing the sim between loading the airplane at different airports seems to help quite a bit. The gross weight dial absolutely needs change, and takes forever to set. Sounds and visuals are great. With a bit of love and work it could be improved. EDIT: Also, the pushback seems to take forever to actually start. Not sure if that is a problem on my end though. The paper EFB is awesome.

Greetings. Was wondering if there was a list Vars and Events to enable my hardware to control the L-1011? Looking for the inc/dec AFCS Alt knob in particular. Thank you in advance. John

The TOD arrow still disappears from the PFD when a lower altitude is set on the FCU without engaging or pulling the knob. This bug has persisted since version 1.2.3. Is there a fix on the way? IMG_5195.mov

Thank you!

It sounds like the GNS may have corrupted during streaming/downloading and installing. Attempt to disable the TriStar then re-enable it/uninstall and reinstall when able and let me know if this helps.

Hello, a lot of these are logged and known about for the team, I saw that you left a question for other users but for the sake of keeping this thread cleanly focused on the list you provided, I will be locking this thread, however you are welcome to ask fellow users in either the Tristar "Other" Section, or the General Discussion section that way I'll be able to keep this area focused. Thank you for understanding and I appreciate you gathering all of this info.

Continue in here please and thank you 😄 Any that aren't relevant to F/E or Preflight can have new posts

Thanks. Do you want me to continue adding more here, or to create separate posts?

Hi, I consolidated the list as you've noticed, a great deal of these are logged and already known about. I'll look at this and any of the ones that aren't logged I will definitely log. Thanks 🙂

I seem to be missing pretty much all interior cockpit ambient sounds (with buses powered) on the ground. I can hear switch sounds, warning sounds, external power cart, etc. I thought nothing of it, until I suddenly heard them while recycling views quick. Then, just as quick as they appeared, they disappeared again. Not sure exactly how to reproduce other than cycling my exterior/interior views back and forth quickly on ChasePlane.

Also Mechanical Gear release compartment – not modelled

Great list! Also, the fuel quantity in the 1A and 3A inboard tanks appears to be backwards. Aka, when total fuel is above 159,240lbs, then the 1A & 3A quantities are showing less than 100lbs. But, when total fuel is below 159,240lbs, they are showing thousands of pounds of fuel in them. According to the manual, it should be reversed. Please see attached photos for reference

I too have noticed these discrepancies. I’ve listed additional ones that I have found here: https://www.avsim.com/forums/topic/692924-l-1011-tristar-systems-issues-vs-delta-poh-–-not-study-level/

Hey fellow TriStar fans, I’ve been deep-diving into the new IniBuilds L-1011 for MSFS 2024 since release day, testing it thoroughly against the real Delta Airlines L-1011 Pilots Operating Manual (normal, abnormal & emergency sections). I’m sharing this as constructive feedback so the community knows exactly what to expect right now. This detailed list should help highlight areas that still need attention. If any of the IniBuilds team or beta testers see this and want screenshots, more context from the Delta POH, or a walk-through of the real procedures, feel free to reach out — I’d be happy to share everything I’ve found. Quick note: I had planned to start filming a full expert-level procedural tutorial series on this aircraft tomorrow on my youtube channel Joshua757, but with so many systems not behaving as they should per the real Delta manual, I am not sure if I should. Unfortunately, I’m quite disappointed with the current systems depth. The visuals and flight model are solid, but it feels like the release may have been rushed. The aircraft was clearly not ready in my opinion. Here’s the full list of discrepancies I found (all verified against the Delta POH): Electrical / APU / Standby Power Battery condition light does not illuminate when the battery is the only source for standby power APU low oil pressure light doesn't seem to be modelled – should extinguish when APU power is turned on APU Logic Incorrect – “Don’t Load” illuminates before and during doors in transit. Actual sequence is doors in transit for 10 seconds then “Don’t Load” No option for APU field and gen flow bars to automatically illuminate as in the real aircraft APU KW/KVAR gauge reads zero all the time Engine Gen KW/KVAR gauge reads zero the whole time regardless of load Fuel System APU starts even with Engine 2 tank valve unlatched and Emergency Shut off doesn't work Low pressure warning lights not simulated when tank boost pumps are on Fuel quantity test – total fuel and Gross WT indicator does not increase when test is pressed Blue disagreement lights for tanks 1A and 3A XFR, their backup gravity XFR, the cross feeds and tank valves are not modelled Tank 1A and 3A low lights don’t work during the test Fuel (low) pressure lights do not illuminate when tank pumps are unlatched Fuel switch enrich is not modelled Pneumatics / Air Systems Pack flow bars and Hot air when latched illuminate even with APU bleed off High press flow bars illuminate regardless of whether there’s a pneumatic supply or not Avionics Air should read OVBD OVBD when on the ground Wing anti ice manual test with pneumatic pressure – does not produce expected OPEN indication Fire / Smoke / Warning Systems S/O Panel Lights test incorrect – Fire detection loop test and wheel well fire test should not illuminate No APU fault flags remain after S/O panel lights test Engine TURB Cooling air test incorrect – pressing A and B test switches individually should not illuminate the lights Nacelle Pylon test does not cause the corresponding warning 'NACELLE OVHT' to display on the pilots Annun Panel Cargo compartment fire test button does not cause aural tone Smoke detection panel not modelled Galley smoke test not modelled Fault isolation data display not modelled Hydraulics / Flight Controls / Other Systems Hydraulic ATM test position does appear to work With no hydraulics: 4 STABILIZER INOP, 2 YAW SAS FAIL and HYDRAULIC LIMITER PUSH lights should illuminate Brake Accum lights don’t appear to work Engine gen field close switches and generator breaker close switches can’t be armed beforehand for auto paralleling on start as in the real aircraft PRESS IND test – press pointers do not drive to the 9 o’clock position Engine VIB FLTR press light (pilots annun panel) does not illuminate when vibration monitor test button is pressed FLT recorder trip date not modelled Cabin pressure control fault light does not illuminate during manual outflow valve test Anti skid test norm and alt does not indicate test pattern Stall test does not work Glareshield DME test does not cause the fail flag/four dashes/four zeros test pattern Autopilot test – wailer does not automatically silence after two seconds Flight director mode FD synch is not modelled CVR test doesn't work Can’t do altitude alert test Pitch and roll disconnect levers do not light up when pulled Disabling the autospoiler by pressing the button on the spoiler does not cause the DLC fail lights to illuminate on the overhead Slat lock doesn't depressurize the servo that controls the slats Hydraulics – when engine driven pump depressurized, the ATMs even on auto don’t takeover to restore hydraulic pressure What has your experience been with the systems so far? Feel free to drop your thoughts below. Cheers, Joshua757 Aeronautical Engineering 1st Class Honors Graduate and Flight Simmer Attatched below is one example of when the ATM's are in Auto but do not restore Hydraulic Pressure when the Engine Driven Pumps are shut off.

I'll pass this along to the team, thank you

When performing a Fuel Quantity Test, the corresponding gross weight and total fuel indications do not also increase. Please see attached photos for reference
