iniBuilds

Hello everyone, and we have some very exciting news for you today! 🥳 As announced back in November 2022 in our roadmap post, and teased last week on social media, we are ecstatic to showcase some of our work on the iniBuilds A300-600 Airliner for Microsoft Flight Simulator! Those at FSExpo Houston 2023, will be experiencing this product first-hand in the 'iniBuilds Experience Planetarium' (follow our socials here to see this live!). However, we thought for those of you not attending, we would do our first official blog post on this fantastic product, providing you information on the work completed thus far, and some of the features you can expect. The past few months has been spent on completely re-creating the exterior model of our flagship aircraft; taking the visual experience you can expect to the next level. The aircraft uses a combination of 8K and 4K PBR textures, providing a spectacular experience akin to the real life counterpart; realistic decals, wear & tear and dirt carefully placed across the aircraft. From accurate liveries to precise textures, you can expect an aircraft model that truly captures the essence of the iconic A300. Here are some images focused on some of the key areas. This superb attention to detail transcends into the interior of the aircraft with a fully modelled cockpit & cargo interior that you can see below. With our extensive range of cargo loads, you can embark on exhilarating journeys to various destinations, each offering unique opportunities. Picture yourself transporting an F1 car to a thrilling race in Bahrain or taking precious cargo for an important client. The iniBuilds A300-600 Airliner provides you with an ultimate airliner experience embarking on extraordinary adventures, where the sky is no longer the limit. But that's not all! We're also building something truly remarkable in the iniManager, taking your cargo hauling adventures to the next level. Our innovative tool will enhance your experience and become your trusted companion. But that deserves its own post, and once we have completed this element of the product, we will showcase this! This leads in nicely to talk about the next steps for the iniBuilds A300-600 & what features are going to be included! This is a true-to-life complex airliner, with hundreds of features but we outline some of the key features below: Comprehensive systems simulation alongside an authentic flight-model in line with all iniBuilds airliner products. The A300 for Microsoft Flight Simulator will feature an incredibly realistic flight model, meticulously designed to replicate the handling, performance, and behavior of the real-life aircraft. Get ready to experience the thrill of flying the A300 as if you were in the captain's seat! Full ACARS/CPDLC simulation (including SimBrief) with the option for classic and modern pedestal options (like the X-Plane version) Navigraph charts compatibility in a feature-rich EFB including comprehensive cargo operation simulation. Numerous realistic and fictional liveries for free via iniManager Custom WWise sound set including authentic sound recordings from the real aircraft, dynamically balanced within a 3D environment. A fully modelled Freighter (release version) & passenger version (post-release) of the A300-600 airliner. The passenger version will include a fully modelled cabin. I leave you with a final piece of content on the iniBuilds A300-600 airliner which is a teaser of the aircraft, that we showcased in the 'iniBuilds Experience' at FSExpo Houston 2023! 🙂 We're thrilled about the progress we've made so far, and we can't wait to share the A300 with the Microsoft Flight Simulator community. Rest assured, our team is dedicated to delivering a high-quality aircraft that meets and exceeds your expectations. I am also pleased to announce that we will be developing the 'Epic' modification, for those seeking a retro-modern combi experience! How this will be structured alongside the modern product is currently unclear and as always, we appreciate your support and patience throughout this development journey. We'll continue to provide updates as we make further strides towards completion. For those seeking an even more modern experience; do join our Discord and follow us on social media as work progresses on the 'iniBuilds secret project' will surely provide you with a modern long-haul airliner experience. 😉 We hope to make an official unveiling to the end of 2023! Many thanks for reading & have a lovely rest of your weekend! To those of you attending FSExpo, please do drop by to the iniBuilds stand and say Hello! 👋

Hello everyone! We are super glad to be providing a fantastic offer on our X-Plane Airbus products as part of Day 6 of May Mayhem! Both the iniSimulations A300 and Beluga ST available for £9.99 GBP each for only 24 hrs for XP11. We also have the pleasure of announcing the iniSimulations A300-600R(F) & the iniSimulations Beluga ST are going to be provided with beta compatibility for X-Plane 12! These planes now have updates available via the iniManager to allow customers to have these aircraft functional in X-Plane 12 for free! Changelog: A300 & Beluga ST XP12: Flight model: • Adjusted aerofoils to better reflect supercritical aerofoils MCRIT. Fuse body area rule adjusted on A300 F and PAX to reduce drag and better reflect performance. • Weight and balance system changed to new XP12 payload system. This allows for better CG in A300 PAX and F along with payloads that now dynamically adjust vertically for the Beluga ST • Adjust engine performance to better reflect thrust output during climb and CRZ phase in XP12 • Adjust drag profile of A300 PAX and F to better reflect flag drag. • Adjusted Beluga ST fuel burn profile using XP12s more fine FF adjustments • Adjusted empty weight CG position for A300F PAX and Beluga Systems: • Change flap system to work in XP12 for A300 and Beluga • Custom fuel flow adjusted to work in XP12 for the A300 and Beluga • Change EFB CG slider to work with XP 12 weight and balance. • Adjusted start times to work with XP12 engine model. • Updated Airac reading to work with XP12. Art/ lights: • Updated A300 and Beluga to use XP12 lights in both the flight deck and exterior. • Adjusted elements of flight deck to work better in XP12s lighting environment. We have also pushed small updates to the BelugaST adding back in some cargo options (for both X-Plane 11 & X-Plane 12). Some known things to be aware about: - Due to weather system changes in XP12, the METAR/ATIS request functions will no longer work. - Upon first load you may receive an error prompt regarding sounds. Dismiss this, and activate the aircraft and reload the sim. The error message will no longer appear. - Due to the significant changes in the lighting system, lights will look different to XP11. - Please note Mac&Linux testing has not been conducted on the XP12 updates. - More issues may be present, but this is an open beta, and there are no current timelines in place to resolve items (Please bear this in mind!). We hope you enjoy this sale, and the XP12 compatibility! Please do remember to fully re-load XP after activation. Please note the A310 is no longer on sale, and will not be receiving XP12 compatibility.

Another company?

Thanks... the reason for those quick functions of sending between EFB and FMS is that in XP both FMS and EFB is written in the same programme. In MSFS its two different coders, and there are limitations in sending HTML requests to the WASM API... we will do what we can though, and trust me it would be great to get that automation back in!

Hey guys, As we make more fantastic products for you all, we want to ask you for your feedback on our EFB's... What do you like? What do you not like? What features would you like to see within them.. Many thanks iniBuilds Aircraft team ❤️

Reduce your LOD to sub 100. This update would only have improved perf.

We have some reports, but not too many as a lot of people are following the guidance issued if low perf. The scenery is already pretty efficient (more is being done for Patch 1) but to start off with have you followed our guide of what to do if low perf? https://forum.inibuilds.com/topic/18864-what-to-do-if-you-have-low-performance/

Is there any other developer making this airport?

The product will be releasing Friday 14th April for 19.99 GBP 🙂 https://store.inibuilds.com/products/inibuilds-new-york-john-f-kennedy-kjfk-msfs
