v.1.2.1 Xbox Issues A350

[BoeingSpeedbird]

1.2.1 just dropped for Xbox. My excitement has quickly turned to disappointment as I cannot select the first SID in the dropdown menu on the MCDU for departure out of EDI. Aaaaargghhhh. 

[BoeingSpeedbird]

And no cockpit floodlighting or dome lighting. 

[BoeingSpeedbird]

No external lights are working. This has to be a joke. 

[Jwilbrooke]

No cockpit lighting and still no gear bump noise on rotation - feels like a real step backwards 

[Travel theCaribbean2009]

Same, no ext. lights or cockpit dome lights… really aggregating. I’d rather have no fan blade spin on idle than no lights. This is a big ugly joke 😂💀😭

[Travel theCaribbean2009]

As of today, Version 1.2.1 was released on Xbox. My excitement to have spinning fan blades quickly turned to sadness and disappointment when I spawned in at numerous airports and noticed that even though the cockpit shows my external lights are on… none of them work. Logo, takeoff, taxi, beacon, strobe, navigation etc… none of them work. No dome lights either. This is really frustrating. Was hoping to be able to do some A350 ops again happily, but here we are again. Guess I will be sticking with my PMDG 777 consistently again. 😔

Please, please fix this issue quickly iniBuilds team.

Hi!

Since the A350 got updated to 1.2.1 on xbox, none of the interior or exterior lights works except integral cockpit light. 

I am not using any addons that change anything about the sim, only airport sceneries.

As a work around for this issue someone on the discord recommended to have zinerteck aircraft realistic lights installed it fixes both the exterior and the interior lighting. A great work around to restore the lighting until an official patch is made on the Xbox platform

I have the same issue. I'm going to be harsh here but this current build is like 10 steps backwards for consoles. It's sucks. I love flying the A350 when it was working. I tried flying with the fan blade bug but it just ruin things for me. The constant WASM crashes on flights longer than 4 hours. It just sucks. I was hoping this update would make it flyable again and it's hasn't. On-top of pmdg 777 not being able to update NAV data at all. I have no modern long hauls. I love the A340 but routes are few and far between. I like flying realistic routes. Like I said it kind sucks for long hauls right now. Short hops are getting boring. I need my longer the 9 hour flight fix. Please inibuilds...do a hot fix or something for consoles. Work your magic with asobo or Microsoft.

Hope this helps anyone not wanting to park the a350 back into the hanger until it’s fixed. I did it myself and it works flawless

[Gamefreak]

The only workaround that I found is to have zinertek aircraft realistic lights installed and that fixes the functionality of the interior and exterior lights. Unfortunately this is the only way I’ve found it work since it’s a paid add on you already have or need to get. Least there’s a way until an official fix is published 

[Dimitrios]

No lights here also I hope they fix it fast !!!!

[BoeingSpeedbird]

I simply do not understand the quality assurance process. It took me less than a minute to identify the first problem  last night, and then a further two minutes to identify an additional two bugs. Questions have to be asked internally at Asobo/Microsoft as to how this can happen, especially annoying as Xbox had the”update” a week later than PC, which I assumed would be for testing/checking. Does the testing not actually happen on an actual Xbox or there is no testing at all - the only understandable explanations for this.

Also Airport Navigation (ANF) is still not working and not possible to download terrain data or update navdata from EFB

Also, given there was an announcement detailing the changes/fixes/updates for the 1.2.1 for PC users (I was told somewhere in this forum that the detailed list doesn’t necessarily apply to Xbox), then why do Xbox users not get the same courtesy of explanation with a list detailing the updates that do apply to Xbox?

That actually works? I'll have to give it a try. Although I believe another big issue to is clicking on the first option for a SID in the CDU.

Do we even know if they fixed the ILS

[BoeingSpeedbird]

Who knows. I gave up before even leaving the ground. 

[mic83hele]

ILS for me is working, just landed

[BoeingSpeedbird]

Still don’t seem to have sorted the autopilot not picking up NAV and going to waypoint after takeoff - always having to do a direct to. So, other than spinning fan blades what else has been updated (and broken)?

Yep actually works which is surprising to me why that would be the case but helps as a workaround in the meantime. I do hope they do fix it soon for the people who don’t have that add on. I haven’t had a problem with the SIDS not working.

Not possible to select any first occurring SID in the dropdown menu.

Yes, ILS details automatically populating now.

I was so excited to spend 90 dollars on an A350, was so pumped to fly this. And I've spent the last 8 hours trying to figure out what's wrong. On Xbox, I understand it's not as reliable as PC but damn dude. This is horrible. Wish refunds were a thing, because this is an absolute disappointment
