Wilco Publishing has released the v1.1 update to their 737 PIC Evolution product. Customers can go log into their Wilco accounts and download the update.
Fixes include:
Exterior model:
Re-modeled wingflex effects with flaps and spoilers seamlessly following flex angles even when deployed.
Revised and improved Krueger leading edge flaps and slats. Kreugers now have correct secondary retractable segments.
Revised spoilers and ground spoilers with more details.
Revised flap animations more closely resemble the triple slotted flaps of the real 737 classics.
New "flatter" profile windows now with visible frames.
Numerous gtweaksh to shapes and profiles, all over the airframes.
The cockpit has received attention in the shape of many revised systems and improvements to
functionality:
Correct TOGA switches are now present and functional on the throttle levers.
3D Engine start/fuel levers now function to match 2D popup throttles.
It is now possible to follow procedures from "Cold & Dark" state to flight entirely in the 3D cockpit mode.
Perhaps the most significant upgrade to the 3D cockpits is the ability to change out from digital to analogue instrumentation "on the fly" to match your selection of 2D panel.
I got this soon after it came out, but I was very disappointed with the initial release. It was clear that it had been rushed out the door ahead of the holidays, and many things needed fixing. I decided to let Wilco have a "do over" on this before I did a mini-review on it.
In other news, Wilco has posted a preliminary date of March 30, 2012 for the availability of the download version of the CRJ NextGen add-on. I'm not holding my breath on that one yet, but maybe they will surprise us...
