Hello everyone, I hope you are well! Its been a little over a month since our last update and we have a lot of things to discuss today so let's jump straight in! X-Plane 11&12 : A300V2 & Beluga What a month it has been! I know we are all super excited about X-Plane 12, and the awesome features that are coming to LR's latest simulator. To address the obvious question... at this time we have no position / anything to comment regarding the new sim as we do not have access to the Beta builds! As soon as we do, we will let you know (when we can of course!). However the new features / improvements to our products won't stop... nor will there be disparity between two different versions of our products against the simulators (XP11 /XP12). That leads me nicely into showcasing the upcoming A300ST Beluga update! Over the past few months, based on customer feedback we have been working on providing more cargo options to this product! I attach some pictures of these below: These four new cargo options will be coming in the next update along with the enhanced CPDLC features first showcased on the A310, and the experimental flight model auto enabled for the upmost convenient flying experience! Work on our A300V2 is in full swing, and we have some fantastic things to showcase, in the next few weeks! A reminder (as I have seen some confusion on this), all the new features, and improvements are completely free in this V2 for our current customers. You can read some more on what is to come here: https://forum.inibuilds.com/topic/2566-inisimulations-a300-600rf-project-update-whats-coming/ These updates will come once the iniManager is released later this month! You can check out the trailer for our new tool here. I have seen some confusion on this too so let me clarify: We have spent the past few months innovating and investing in a brand-new all-in-one product management desktop app to complement our modern, unique store for our products the developers that we publish for. The iniManager offers an easy, one-click install and updating system. The app installs all owned products, and intelligently updates products when a new version is pushed. Products can be updated without the need for action from the user utilising automatic updates or by manually updating the product. When an update is published, the iniManager won’t touch activation files, installed liveries or preference files, removing the need for reactivation. The application directly links in with our online store, allowing users to login using their store accounts and immediately have access to all of their products, along with discovering new products. The iniManager retains the current DRM (ex. SASL) processes in place for all products - the ultimate goal is simplify the installation and updating process for all iniBuilds Store products. iniScene We are super grateful for the amazing response iniScene Queenstown (NZQN received). It was a fantastic project, and our first product made for Microsoft Flight Simulator from the ground up. For our X-Plane 11/12 customers, rest assured we will be releasing the XP version some point this year! Work on Beauvais (LFOB) and our other projects continue, and we hope to showcase something later this month for an international airport in the USA. 😉 Microsoft Flight Simulator I am very pleased to announce the iniSimulations A310-300 will be coming to Microsoft Flight Simulator. We have been in awe with the simulator, and are super excited with what the next few months have to bring. I attach some highly WIP images of the aircraft! Work on the systems, flight modelling and 3D art are making fantastic progress and we felt it was an appropriate time to reveal the progress thus far. No timelines or release dates of course at this time. Our 'secret project airliner' is also making excellent progress, and if all goes to plan we should be showcasing her before the end of the year! An exciting time for us over at iniBuilds, and I hope our customers are as excited as us, and ready for the next few months! To speak to us in real time, join our Discord here - https://inib.uk/discord All the best, and have a lovely weekend! Kind Regards, Ubaid

We have not mentioned anything regarding XP12, or what the updates will consider. As far as we are concerned we will continue developing our products, adding new features in XP11 or 12. We do not have access to the beta builds of XP12 yet, so we really cannot comment.

We would of loved too. But Librain simply is not compatible the way it used to be in OGL. Hence why it was never available. The moment we have the ability to provide rain effects and compatibility in XP11 we 100% will (Librain fully working in Vulkan). But from our side, it does not warrant development time creating our own solution when the future, inevitable sim (XP12), which is coming, has this feature by default. Some will agree, some will disagree, but sadly that is where we have to leave it.

Dear customer, It is not our intension to be secretive but we cannot disclose certain information that is not public to the consumer. Your comments are not marginalized and we have been a leading developer acting on customer feedback and improvements in our products. This also for us, makes sense why the plugin was not fully made compatible for Vulkan. Where we can implement features, we will. Rain effects were already working in internal builds on OGL. Thank you for your business.

More news on this by the end of the year!

Hello everyone, The team has been hard at work the past few weeks: A310 MRTT I am pleased to announce the free expansion to the iniSimulations A310-300 ON THE LINE is now available! A310 customers can download this from their store accounts. If you would like to know more about the iniSimulations A310-300 product you can find more info here. The A310 Multi Role Tanker Transport is a great addition to the product providing customers with a truly versatile, unique experience in the simulator. To learn more about the operation of this aircraft and an in-depth look at the features you can check our walkthrough video here. I attach some fantastic photos from this new variant of the product! 🙂 An update on the Medevac variant: at this moment in time this airframe is delayed until further notice. It is nearly ready to go, but some more work is needed and we hope to get this out by the end of the year. This is the least popular model of the family, and is purely a cosmetic model. We felt the priority was to ensure the interactive, unique MRTT model comes first and is ready for our customers to enjoy! A300 V2 Update As the work on the A310 has come to a close, the team have been working hard in completing the A300 V2 improvements based on feedback we have received over the past year. To know more about what we are improving & why you can check out this forum post here. I hope to provide you with some progress on this in the next few weeks! BelugaST Update We have received a lot of questions from our Beluga customers what features will be added into this project, and we had not finalized what that had looked like. This has now been confirmed and I am pleased to report the following features will be coming to the BelugaST: - New A400M fuse cargo piece, new A320 front fuse cargo pieces, chemical tank, a new helicopter, and the prop planes used in the Avalon Airshow. (All pieces that have been transported by the Beluga! - Autosave - Enhanced CPDLC operations as currently present on the A310. We hope to get this update out to you very soon after A300 V2. iniManager We have received a lot of feedback regarding downloading and installing our products! As a result we have spent the past few months innovating and investing in a brand-new all-in-one product management desktop app to complement our modern, unique store for ourselves and our developers that we publish for. The 'iniManager'. The iniManager offers an easy, one-click install and updating system. The app installs all owned products, and intelligently updates products when a new version is pushed. The entire product is updated without the need for action from the user. When an update is published, our backend system automatically scans the uploaded archive searching for added, deleted or modified files and then pushes these changes to the user's installation. The application directly links in with our online store's API, allowing users to login using their store accounts and immediately have access to all of their products, along with discovering new products. The application is currently in Alpha Testing and will be compatible with X-Plane & Microsoft Flight Simulator for all our products and those that retail with us. A truly exciting time! To wrap up this update, I would like to mention that due to our rapid growth we are always hiring! If you would like to join the team please email me at management@inibuilds.com! We are working very hard on a range of international airports under our iniScene brand for X-Plane and Microsoft Flight Simulator along with our 'secret project airliner'. Kind Regards, and happy flying! Ubaid

Please contact direct support. Thanks

They all have the same MTOW, ZFW due to the limited data we have on the more unique models. Thanks

This is how it works in the real aircraft. (Slats or struts compressed)

The A310 has no VNAV on the climb

There is no ETA for this at the moment. 😄 Thanks.

Yes there is. The button is located behind the pedestal. Please ensure you hold it down for 5 secs. Thanks

Hi there! Let's see how we can help. - The planes required a lot of pilot oversight in reference to SPD/FLAPS management. As the aircraft has no VNAV in the CLB, it will blow through any restrictions and speed up. The engines are very powerful. Please share a video and we can help advise you step by step and see where things are going wrong. - Please can you show us a video of this. - From reading I think you may have an issue some people experienced. Please try the info linked in this forum, and see if this improves your flying. Kind Regards Ubaid

Avitab integration will be coming, but windshield affects are not coming... the reason why will be revealed in time.

Not at this time!

Hello, We will take a look thank you! Kind Regards Ubaid

These will of course vary depending on weight / winds / conditions etc.

Beluga is our cheapest aircraft product, and regarded as an entry to the family.. You are eligible to a discount on the A300 if you contact support, and upgrade to the bundle..

Yes!

There is! Set it to MAP, and SYS1 and you should see the WXR in some strong conditions.

Streamers are doing their pre-release showcasing. Very soon with you!

Please contact DIRECT SUPPORT for matters re account/product activations.

No worries at all. Further to what Brad has mentioned once you turn the knobs on the overhead to ALIGN; You should see something pop up on the FMS, saying 'Align IRS'. If you press that line select key, the IRS will align in reference to the alignment time setting you have pressed on the EFB.
