In an update after their weekly dev meeting, Mathijs of Aerosoft has taken to the forums to provide us with an update on the current status of their upcoming A320 Professional product line!
First off, Aerosoft has completed all their tests with P3D v4.2 and found little that could cause issues. One possible issue in 4.2 is for people with lower end hardware is that GPUs with less than 8GB of VRAM could be problematic and cause lower FPS than in v4.1. They are still looking into this issue but according to Mathijs, the new Airbuses will demand at least 6GB of VRAM but 8GB is preferable, in line with Lockheed Martin’s recommended amount of VRAM.
Next up, Aerosoft has decided to add models with the “ugly” sat domes due to most airlines quickly adding them.
All of the lights in the VC are now completed and Mathijs will make a video later this week showing them off.
You may recall Aerosoft running into a snag with clickzones in v4.1, and Mathijs is happy to report that the issue is now solved in 4.2 thanks to Lockheed Martin! Testing will resume since this issue has now been solved.
They also think that they have enough information to create Lufthansa’s new livery, and will make it into the included liveries upon release of the product.
As a closing, Mathijs says to not expect the reading light to stay on when the window is open as their modelers spent hours on it to no avail.
Lastly, a few screenshots were provided showing off the new VC lighting, enjoy!
