ToLiss A319 Updated to v1.0.2

The hard work hasn’t stopped for the ToLiss team since the release of their well-received A319 Airbus for X-Plane. The release was followed up with a 1.0.1 update a short time later, addressing a handful of bugs that weren’t picked up on by the small testing group. Now, the A319 is being updated once more to v1.0.2.

Version 1.0.2 is a slightly larger update for the aircraft that brings further features and compatibility with third-party add-ons and products. This in addition to rectifying a sizeable list of bugs.

Owners of the A319 should expect to see:

• Compatability for transparent runways (custom scenery), ice/snow runways (Arctic/Antarctic operations), or dry lakebed (KEDW) as valid runways
• Modified frequency management to allow the use of ATC2Pilot (Note: RMP1 must be set to VHF1 and RMP2 must be set to VHF2)
• Modified regular brake force such that it can be adjusted via the ISCS
• Autogate compatibility added, aircraft now starts with the jet bridge attached when in the right location with engines off
• ISCS is now movable by dragging in the title bar of the ISCS

Furthermore, a list of 16 bugfixes has now been implemented, affecting various aspects of the aircraft behaviour. For the full changelog, see below this article.

Owners of this excellent A319 can update using the X-Updater client inside the aircraft folder. If you haven’t yet picked it up, read our review on the aircraft.
