Level-D Simulations: The 767 |
With years of
develpment and research, Level-D Simulations: The 767 is one of the most
amazing product releases for the Microsoft Flight Simulator platform.
Designed by the same development team that worked on the famous 767 "Pilot
in Command" releases, this version for FS2004 has many new features,
systems, and extras to make this a quite remarkable product. It is not
just a simple drop-in aircraft, but an entire suite of components that
function together in order to give you the most accurate simulation
experience possible.
Aircraft Visual
Model: The 767 visual model was done superbly and includes such
features as: R.A.T. deployment animation, EVERY outside lightings tied to
power busses and dedicated switches, high quality 32-bit/DXT3 livery
texture formats, flex wing, apu door, aileron droop, and a two speed
winshield wiper system.
Aircraft Flight Model: Level D Sim has gone to great links to
ensure a great flight model with their 767. The product was flight tested
by real world 767 pilots and includes authentic aircraft performance
calculated directly from flight model parameters, accurate thrust/drag
modeling, real world Engine Out performance, proper weight and balance
calculations and load management.
Virtual Cockpit: The virtual cockpit in the 767 will completly
immerse you into the role of Captain or a First Officer of a 767. This
mode includes independent Captain & F/O gauges that are fully functional
and clickable, two different interior lighting options, and a reflective
window option.
Aircraft Systems: As with the flight model, Level D Sim has worked
very hard on the aircraft systems to replicate it's real world
counterpart. Some key aircraft systems features are: a fully implemented
cabin pressurization gauge & logic, cabin temperature control,
programmation of engine failures triggered by V1,V2,Vr speeds, system
failures, and full TCAS logic.
Radios/Communications: The aircraft features an advanced radio /
communications suite that includes such things as independent NAV1, NAV2,
and ILS radios, enhanced ground crew dialogs for interphone
connection/ground calls, pushback procedure, and ground horn, cabin crew
calls, etc.
Other Systems: The 767 also includes a fully functioning FMC with
such features as: new FMC pages (DIVERT), winds aloft forecast entries,
SIDS/STARS/Approaches simulations and creation, VNAV logic, and accurate
Cost Index calculations. The AFDS includes AUTOLAND logic, realistic
Flight Director, an A/P disconnection switches on the yoke and throttles,
plus much more.
FS
Compatibility / System Requirements
This product is only
compatible with FS2004, so of course, FS2004 is required. For your
computer, we recommend you have a 1.6 GHz machine, with a 128 Mb memory
video card. System memory should be a minimum of 512. Low-end on-board
sound chips are NOT recommended. A plugin sound card, such as a
Soundblaster Audigy, is recommended. In some cases, sounds will not work
correctly unless you have an adequate sound card.
Windows XP is the official operating system that is supported for use with
the 767. It will not work on Windows 98/Me.
