Version 1.12.0b
11th November 2022

Changelog:

Features:

- Voice UNICOM (see https://virtualsky.ivao.aero/voiceunicom/)

- Added a Pilot Core executable for FSX/P3D (mainly for homecockpit users, the DLL is still used for most users)

- Added SELCAL support in FSX/P3D/MSFS aircraft cockpits (will soon be added to FlyByWire A320neo), documentation for aircraft creators to come later

- Added radio volume setting from the aircraft cockpit for FSX/P3D/MSFS/X-Plane (will soon be added to FlyByWire A320neo), documentation for aircraft creators to come later

Fixes:

- On MSFS, corrected altitude to match other simulators standard atmosphere

- Altitude will now not send your position when your position is N0° E0° and altitude below 100ft (usually when you are in the main menu of your simulator)

- Altitude will also disconnect from the network if you went back to main menu on MSFS

- Some issues with MTL loading have been fixed (FSX/P3D/MSFS)

- Some issues with the flight plan page of the user interface have been fixed

- Multiple installer improvements in order to reduce issues with GStreamer installation

Version 1.11.1b
19th August 2022

Changelog:

==========

- Fixed Linux and macOS Pilot Core

- Added flaps and spoilers animations to MSFS MTL (in the previous version, the position change was instant)

- Small adjustments to the Profile page and the Auto Unicom page in Pilot UI

- Changed how dependencies (Microsoft Visual C++ and GStreamer) are installed: they are now downloaded by the installer

- Due to that, the C:\gstreamer-ivao folder will be replaced by a C:\gstreamer folder.

- The MSFS installer now has an option to not start Pilot Core automatically.

- On Windows, the X-Plane installer will now remember where X-Plane is located.

Known issues:

=============

- On some computers, an error can appear at the start of the Pilot Core (see below). This error is not blocking the execution of the Pilot Core and the issue has been reported to the GStreamer developers.

- Some bluetooth headsets are known to trigger a memory leak in Pilot Core when disconnected

Version 1.11.0b
1st August 2022

Changelogs

Features

========

- Voice ATIS

+ Complete rewrite of the radio subsystems

+ Supports audio RX on both radios, either with two ATIS stations or with one ATIS and one controlled position

+ The ATIS frequency of an ATC position is now available in the ATC page (limitation: Altitude doesn't know if the ATC is transmitting the ATIS or not)

+ In the ATC page, it is possible to tune directly to one ATIS on COM1 or COM2 (by clicking on the "->" symbol)

+ X-Plane default ATIS is temporarily disabled when the user is connected to the IVAO network

+ Voice ATIS communications use a different UDP port than ATC communications. Some users may need to update their firewall to allow outbound connection to UDP port 6900.

- Improved radio audio effects

+ Realistic VHF propagation model based on distance and terrain between the ATIS station antenna(s) and the aircraft antenna(s)

+ Dynamic block tones frequencies and volume (based on a simulation of radio relative precision; sometimes the block tones might not be heard)

- Support for new MTL installer (MSFS 2020)

- New login workflow and profile page

- The audio volume of both radio is now saved automatically

- The radio frequencies can be changed by using the mouse wheel while hovering on the frequencies

+ This might be blocked on some aircrafts if the radios are powered-off

Bug fixes

=========

- Fix crash when reconnecting to the network after a connection loss

- Fix crash when disconnected by a supervisor

- Fix automatic open / close of Pilot Core for MSFS

- Fix UTF-8 display in text frequency and private messages (including accents and unicode)
