2.5.0-beta (27.10.2018)

  • Added: Dialog DataRefs/Commands selector. I.e. buttons drf: and cmd: are implemented now.
  • Added: Settings window. Use menu X-Plane->Settings for accessing it.

2.2.0 (10.07.2017)

  • Modified: By default all the manipulators are disabled now! Previous behavior was: the ‘panel’ manipulator was implicitly set when you added any cockpit attribute like ATTR_cockpit.
  • Added: Panel-Click manipulator. This manipulator should be used for the cockpit geometry (ATTR_cockpit) when you want to enable the panel manipulators.
  • Added: Checking if opening scene was created with a newer plug-in version. If so then the scene will not be loaded and a warning will be printed.
  • Added: Smoke object. It can be found near X-Obj and X-Lod.
  • Added: ‘X-Plane’ menu on the 3Ds Max’s top menu bar.
  • Added: Documentation in the separated repository. Use the ‘X-Plane’ menu to get it.
  • Fixed: Log file creation for some 3d max versions.
  • Fixed: Manipulators’ state machine. There were some problems in the state machine one of them could lead to undefined behavior, it was fixed.

2.1.0 (16.05.2017)

  • Added: ‘(U) Update’ buttons for the animation rollups, allows you to re-synchronize animation keys and values.
