This is a follow-up to your previous request #22889 "Will this Bulldog work on I..."

Re: iniBuilds Support | Ticket updated (22889):

Hi Sam had a problem with the Bulldog, the VOR and ADF instruments stopped working, deleated the file and download a fresh copy which solved that problem, however when loading into X Plane 11 there was a message saying there was a minor problem parsing the VRCONFIG: Bulldog vrconfig.txt, and that I may need to update the aircraft, or report this to the author, any idea what this could be?

One other thing, I like night flying, but can't brighten the instruments, the instrument panel seems to have a red sheen to it, but not very bright, tried turning the light switch, but does not seem to get any brighter.

Is there anything else that I can try.

Great times.

Arthur.

Altimeter Calibration Issue

Sun, 22 May 2022 16:28:34 +0000

Version 1.0rc2

I'm having a problem synchronising the altimeter with air pressure and altitude.

Example - sitting at Yeovilton (altitude 75 feet), if I adjust to the air pressure - 1014 - it shows a negative altitude. See atached image.

My (basic) understanding is I should be able to sit on the runway and dial in the altitude and the correct air pressure should be set, or set the air pressure and it should show the right altitude.

The Bulldog was only downloaded a few weeks ago so I assume I have the latest software.

I'm a newbie to XP so it may be me but I'd appreciate some help!
best regards
Neil

The prop control lever

The Prop Control leaver will only stay put at Fine.

If I move it down toward Coarse when I let go of the lever it pops back up to Fine.

Love the plane!!!

Help! Novice Pilot Seeks Help to Start Bulldog

Sat, 07 May 2022 13:06:19 +0000

I'm brand new to Xplane after using the demo for a couple of months, now purchased the full XP11. I've been able to fly the standard C172 quite happily, take offs, start on 10 mile finals etc.

I've installed the Bulldog but as a newbie am striggling with some basics.

1. If I load it with engine running it cuts out immediately - I've no idea why this is happening or how to re-start her.

2. If I load on a 10 mile final approach, again the engine cuts out immediately, turns into a glider.

3. Is there an idiots guide to starting her up - for example, I can press switches (following the checklist) but when I try to press the 'start' button (with its cover on) nothing happens

4. I also got this warning (see jpeg below) - not sure if this has anything to do with it ... (I was able to enter the serial # so it is now registered)

I'd appreciate some guidance please!

Bulldog engine sound

Sun, 07 Feb 2021 20:53:43 +0000

Just purchased this little jewel and my only criticism is the engine sound. The Bulldog had a Lycoming 4 cylinder O-360 or O-200 which had a distinctive 4-banger sound - rode behind one for twenty odd years. Your engine sounds like at least six cylinders with a bit of a deisel thrown in. Another thought - since your installation is a bit different, some kind of pre-advisory would be good.

Bulldog Altimeter incorrect pressure setting

Tue, 06 Apr 2021 20:35:20 +0000

I've just purchased the Bulldog and like it, but I have came across a problem that initially I noticed when flying on VATSIM, but happens when not on VATSIM either.

When I load up X-Plane with 'match real world weather set', The altimeter will display the correct airfield elevation, but the pressure setting defaults to 995mb.

For example at Manchester on load up of X-Plane it displayed the altitude of 257 feet and the subscale reading was 995mb when the actual pressure was 1021mb. So if I set the correct QNH of 1021mb on the subscale, the altimeter read minus 460 feet.

Is this a known bug or something that is only happening in my installation of the product?

Any help greatly appreciated.

Engine fails to start

Fri, 18 Sep 2020 07:12:28 +0000

I've bought the Pup, for x plane 11, but have a problem.

I set it up with engine running ticked in x-plane, and then found the chocks still on at the end of the chosen runway. The engine was running , brilliant

Came out of the game to google how to fix the problem. Read the handbook, nothing there about removing the chocks. Realised it was B, restarted X plane,

Still ticked engine running, engine dies as soon as the aircraft loads.

I have :

Set up with a default aircraft and flown it, cancelled, set up a change of plane to bring in the Pup, the Pup engine dies.

Closed game, unticked he engine started box, tried an engine start, 8 gallons in each wing followed the pup check list,

Battery on, press prime pump a few seconds, 1/4 throttle, select L, press start, prop turns nothing else happens,

tried the same with R, same result

Opened game ticked start with engines running, have fuel, engine dies as it loads, Notice the battery is on this time, tried an engine start....cos it was running? , Nothing

Help,

Beautiful looking aircraft

No worries

Paintkit v1.0

Thu, 10 Sep 2020 13:56:54 +0000

If you want to make a few liveries for the Bulldog, you can grab the paint kit here :

https://drive.google.com/file/d/1OAUNOdXD-1ccF23ob2D8SeYzGzy04Sr7/view?usp=sharing

REQUIREMENTS : 1GB Drive space, 3D Paintkit requires seperate Substance Painter license and updated to the latest version.

Included with this paint kit is a 2D and 3D paint kit.

The 2D paint kit includes the base white livery, dirt, textures and a default example of XX654 so that you can see how each object is mapped. We also include a setup for basic normal, roughness and metallic layers for you to manipulate and construct your own normal maps

The 3D paint kit *recommend* includes a file for use in substance painter. With this, you get most of the main exterior and the base livery already setup for you. Making liveries via substance in the Bulldog is an absolute breeze!

POSCON CSLs

Thu, 10 Sep 2020 12:41:40 +0000

We've sent CSLs for review to POSCON so they can automatically put in their CDN. It was sent rather late, so I'm unsure on what the timeline will be for that. However in the meantime, since we are not distributing any POSCON assets, we can put up a temporary download link for any users that wish to use them.

Download : https://drive.google.com/file/d/12j5BqRxBVjltW8Djxrmj2yICWBh_89io/view?usp=sharing

To install

- Locate your "POSCON" folder in your X-Plane 11 plugins folder.

- The filepath may look something like "X-Plane11/Resources/Plugins/POSCON/Resources/CSL"

- In that CSL folder, unzip and place your BDOG folder.

- Launch X-Plane 11. When logging into POSCON, make sure you start with the ICAO "BDOG". The client should then be able to detect you or other Bulldog pilots.
