  1. Hello, Now, A319 FD-FMC v1.55 is online on FlightSim library. File name to search on the library : pa_a319fd-fmc_cfm_iae155.zip Note: After a user comment on the A318 pack download page, there is no Virus in the Setup program ! Aircrat pack comes with an Installer program. This program has no virus ! If your anti-virus software detect something, this is because my program is written in Visual Basic 6 and I compiled it with a special software which includes inside the Microsoft VB6 Dll's to allow this program to run on all Operating system. This is the reason why some anti-virus software may occurs an alert. This special compilation is the only method to get a real "Stand alone" program. No virus ! Thank you Francois Dore
  2. I am Francois Dore, the author. After the A318 release, now comes the A319 FD-FMC. So, to avoid problems that I saw in the A318 comments, please, read the user manual. Aircrat pack comes with an Installer program. This program has no virus ! If your anti-virus software detect something, this is because my program is written in Visual Basic 6 and I compiled it with a special software which includes inside the Microsoft VB6 Dll's to allow this program to run on all Operating system.

  3. Yubi, you forgot to engage flight control switch on the overhead. 4 buttons on the right (ELAC2,SEC2,FAC2) -> your are in Direct Law if you engage also the 3 buttons of left (ELAC1,SEC1,FAC1) - > you are in normal law. Please, read user manual (Fly by wire chapter) Francois
  4. CHRISFS, There is no virus in the Setup file. This wrote the Setup.exe program in VB6 and as Visual Basic applications are not Stand alone, I included with a special compile tool, inside the EXE, the Visual Basic runtimes (DLLs) to make it stand alone and to run on all systems. Anti-virus software are stupids ;) jgspangler, I am sorry, but it is not possible to run with FS9 and your 3000 aircrafts, for 2 reasons : - 1) FD-FMC uses DLL's tools that work only with FSX or P3D. - 2) this is a true FMC (for flight management), so aircraft flight dynamics are coded in the FMC, so each aircraft requires a specific version of the FMC to control engines and flight envelop. This is not a flight plan manager. Francois
  5. Hello, Sorry for my delayed answer, but I don't know how to set an alarm to this thread... Aphabbrave, your problem comes of your wrong version of FSX. FD-FMC Aircrafts requires FSX+SP2 or acceleration pack, or FSX-SE or P3D. So, final version of FD-FMC aircrafts are completed. First online is A318. FD-FMC version 1.55: - many bugs fixed - new descent gauge - new predictive gradient during approach - database has now 300 airports - New VC with MFD position fixed - New HD (4096 and 2048 ) VC textures - new AIR files - Aircrafts pack come now with a Setup program for an easy install ! First pack online : A318 FD-FMC 1.55 (CFM only) Search on the flightsim library with the file name : pa_a318fd-fmc_cfm155.zip All information on my website : http://freenavdbgroup.com/ A319, A320 and A321 are already available on AVSIM library and come in the next day on the flightsim library. Francois
  6. Hello Mike, I don't understand why your mouse wheel doesn't work with A/P knobs ! YOu are the first to have this issue. What version of FSX you use ? Doesn't work on both: 2D panel and VC ?
  7. Thnaks Panther33 :) New FD-FMC 1.14 is available for A318 and A320 FD-FMC. you can download panel updates here : http://freenavdbgroup.com/?page_id=159 This update fix the X-Bleed issue; You have to download panel update and new VC texture to get the right position of X-Bleed selector on VC and 2D overhead. Now, Pitot sound alarm can be disabled by press on Master Warning.
  8. Hello, Happy good year ! New FD-FMC 1.14 is available for A318 and A320 FD-FMC. you can download panel updates here : http://freenavdbgroup.com/?page_id=159 This update fix the X-Bleed issue; You have to download panel update and new VC texture to get the right position of X-Bleed selector on VC and 2D overhead. Now, Pitot sound alarm can be disabled by press on Master Warning. New airports will be posted Saturday 2nd 2016. Good flight !
  9. Hello, I am the creator of this panel. It remains a small graphic bug about the X-Bleed position that is different between the 2D overhead and the VC. So, this is the 2D overhead which has the right position. This bug comes from the new structural Deice code that show an error in the FSX fefault A321 VC code; So, this problem has no influence on the flight and will be solved in the next panel update, before the end of the year. Check the freenavdbgroup website to get this next panel update. Sorry for the convenience. Francois Dore
  10. Hello, 2 news : The A318 FD-FMC is now available on Flightsim library: https://www.flightsim.com/vbfs/fslib.php?do=copyright&fid=188423 FD-FMC is now in version 1.12.1. This new version brings new features (read the manual). So, this version manage now the wing deice. But the new deice code occurs a small graphic bug : The X-bleed position in the VC is wrong, because there is a error in the original micosoft MDL file of the A321 VC. So, think that is the 2D overhead panel that show the tru position of the X-Bleed. THis bug is temporary. I am working to edit the VC texture to prevent this bug (AUTO and SHUT position will be inverted). Will be fixed in the next panel update. FD-FMC is updated also for the A320 (v1.12.1 now). You can download the A320 update panel here : http://freenavdbgroup.com/?page_id=159 Please note that this update requires the A320 FD-FMC V1.0 pack. Airport database has now 170 airports. The last version is provided with the A318 pack. You can download new airport on freenavdbgroup website. Good flight. Francois

  12. After the last panel update, as new feature have been added to FD-FMC, I updated the Airport creation procedure files to create CSV files for FD-FMC. If you want join our communauty to create airports data, you can download this updated complete toolkit here : Updated (v4.11) English Airport creation toolkit: http://freenavdbgroup.com/?page_id=397 What's new : - EXCEL workbook updated with new gradient feature - Airport creation files manual updated : New features are highlighted in yellow in the manual - fix some XML files Francois
  13. Maybe I forgot to change the date; So, the aircraft.cfg provided with the panel update is always the last version in use, because I do often small improvements. So I recommend to use always the aircraft.cfg provided with panel update; You are sure to get the last version. Francois
  14. So, A320 FD-FMC panel update v1.11 is available : http://freenavdbgroup.com/?p=887 What's new with this update : - New LOC Backcourse approach mode, when available on airport :Backcourse mode allows to use ILS signal of the opposite runway to get a Localizer guidance to land. (e.g KRDD Redding, Rwy 16 approach). - Approach Gradient data for each leg of an approach can be included in approach data file, and used by FD-FMC - In previous version, ILS scale appeared as soon as a LOC approach loaded; Now, with v1.11, ILS scale appears as soon as you are in approach : bug fixed - When you renounced to take-off, all callout and some take data was lost. Now, after a « reject take-off », all system are reset. - You can now use VFR flight plan; FD-FMC is able to save VFR flight plan : bug fixed - Airport information page (Departure and arrival) display now runways from 3000 feet and more. Previous version displayed runways 4000 feet and longer. - Cruise mode had a bug : When you selected a flight level lower than actual, above the crossover altitude (mach mode) IAS value was not updated during the descent to the new flight level : bug fixed. - New feature to display SID and STAR index, with the possibility to have skip lines for more clarity (Thank you Wulf for this excellent idea !) - New background bitmaps for displays, when aircraft is cold and dark - XML code improved for better performance New Approach gradient management : http://freenavdbgroup.com/Freenav/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Gradient.jpg New possibility to skip lines in SID or STAR list (this feature comes from Wulf ) http://freenavdbgroup.com/Freenav/wp-content/uploads/2015/11/Skipline.jpg 7 new airports : - EGAA – Belfast Aldergrove – United Kingdom – By Jean-Pierre Varnier - FACT – Cape Town – South Africa – By Georges - KACV – Arcata/Eureka – USA (California) – By Wulf Bindewald - KMFR – Roghe Valley/Medford – USA (Oregon) – By Wulf Bindewald - KSAN – San Diego – USA (California) – By francois Dore - LDZA – Zagrb/Plezo – Croatia – By Philippe Bronier - LKPR – Praha – Czech Republic – By Philippe Bronier Updates : - KASE – Add gradient data in approach file (requires panel 1.11) - NTAA – Fix some errors in STAR data - VNKT – Add gradient data in approaches files (requires panel 1.11) New AIRAC file : 11282015 Think that since the aircraft is available (end of september), more than 20 airports have been added to the database. You can download them on the Freenavdbgroup website. Freenav airport database is updated weekly (and AIRAC file so ! ) It is very important to check freenav website for update ! Gop to the Freenavdbgroup Airport database menu to download new and updated airports. Airport creation toolkit (airport manual and EXCEL workbook file) will be updated with these new features, in some hours. Good flight ! Francois
  15. - Airport folders must be placed in FD_FMC folder; It is mandatory - Aiport Folders name must be have only the ICAO 4 characters code; If an airport has a longer name, this is because it is designed to work with a specific addon scenery, or it requires that you install an updated AFCAD (BGL file provided in the airport folder that you must move in you "Addon Scenery\scenery\" folder). In this case, you have always a readme.txt file or an install.txt file. Read it to know what you have to do. But in final, you will have to rename the airport folder only with its 4 char ICAO code. Sheme is the following : - FD_FMC folder must be placed at the root of the main FSX folder. - It contains all Airports folders named only with their 4 letters ICAO code. - Each airport folder must contains all the "*.csv" files. (not in a subfolder !) - FD_FMC folder must contains the FDC_path.ini file, which include the path where FSX saves ist flight plan and savegames files. If your have other question, I am here.
