X-Life Developers spent a tons, more than 2,000 hours of coding for this project. And now, after more than 1.5 years of development and more than 6 months of testing, we are proud to present a new product for the X-Plane 10 simulator. Surely you were bored in the empty sky, not watching the traffic aircraft around, independently choosing a runway to take off, checking the weather without ATIS, giving yourself clearance to land in an empty airport e.t.c. Now we have changed this. We've added a ground and air traffic making your favorite airport and airroutes alive and interesting for your flights. X-Life adapts to your PC, allowing it to work with less powerful computers and showing full power with fast CPU. X-Life cares about you, informs you about news and updates, downloads fresh airport files in auto mode from own server. X-Life generates a realistic ground and air traffic, based on the principles of real-life aircraft movements. Each aircraft operated by the AI pilot. All aircraft are controlled by ATC. Algorithms of ground-routes building will avoid conflicts and based on data from apt.dat sceneries files.
DELUXE FEATURES
BASIC ATC CONTROL:
ATIS and METAR info for Departure and Arrival airport (internet connection need)
Delivery clearance with Departure info, Runway, SID, initial altitude, Squack
Engine startup and pushback clearance
Taxi clearance and taxiroute to Departure runway
Takeoff clearance at hold short
Initial altitude and cruise FL climbing clearance
Reporting TOD request
Arrival info (Runway, ILS Approach, STAR, descend FL)
Approach clearance
Tower control with landing clearance/ GoAround instructions
Runway vacation request
Taxiroute to arrival gate
ATC vectoring
FLIGHTPLAN MANAGEMENT:
enter Departure Airport, Arrival airport, Alternate airport, cruise flightlevel and CallSign
Generate flightplan with “Generate” button
Or Enter flightplan by hands (ICAO format)
Import flightplan from aircraft C0Rte/FMGS (if supported, like JARDesign a320/330)
Import flightplan from text file with ICAO-format flightplan string (may use http://rfinder.asalink.net/free/ )
Export entered/generated/readed flightplan direct to aircraft FMGS and text file (if supported, like JARDesign a320/330)
Sent flightplan to ATC to continue work with ATC
*** If Generate function not work well for some Departure/Arrival pair, best way – to use routefinder website, prepare text file with ICAO-format flightplan string and import it with Plight Plan panel.
MORE:
Request FollowMe Car (a separate plugin, not include Deluxe pack) direct from ATC panel
Big radar-map to control traffic around you
Traffic density settings
AI aircraft markers (to see AI aircraft info)
Screen Side Menu
*** – Due to the high complexity of the plug-in internal logic, of varying quality of the data in installed custom sceneries – possible unexpected termination of the plug-in time to time.
Требования
X-Plane 10.50+ or X-Plane 11
X-Life basic installed>BR> i5-i7 CPU: 2,4Ghz Multi-core
Memory: 8 GB RAM
Video Card: 2Gb VRAM>br>64 bit OS (Windows 7 / 8 / 10, Mac OS X 10.9-10.11).
For good performance, you need 3Gb Video Card, at least like Nvidia GTX780Ti or ATI analog. At least you should have OpenSceneryX library installed. Also you should have stable internet connection. OpenSceneryX should be installed to ../X-PLANE 10/Custom Scenery/OpenSceneryX/ folder. Please not rename this folder. To be possible use ATC, your aircraft should have well-worked TCAS.
X-Plane 10 version file can be found on http://jardesign.org/forum/viewforum.php?id=23
This plugin has great idea and could be really good but sadly it has many bugs that makes me to disable the plugin frequently.
Just to name few:
- When you are being told to hold short of runway when there is AI aircraft, the ATC just forgets you and often doesn't give you any clearance after runway is clear
- X-life Ai aircaft are landing on opposite direction to what rwy you have been told to use by ATC, this is the most annoying bug that I have been encountering
- Flight plan tool is poorly made and gives erros almost every time I write the route on the plugin, but using the same text via notepad-file doesn't give any errors.
Overall, this should have been updated more frequently, at least to sort the bugs out to make this even usable. At this time, I woudln't pay 25 euros for this plugin.
Excelente addon; proporciona vida en los aeropuertos agregando aviones con su correspondiente trafico y ademas en los cielos. Lo recomiendo de todas manera....su precio es razonable
