CaptainSim has yesterday released an update for the Boeing 767. The new updates includes several new features and many bug fixes. The Boeing 767 was released as a beta at the end of April and has received several updates since. The current version includes only the Base Pack. Expansion packages, similar to how they work with the 757, are already announced. In the base pack, the B767-300ER is featured with PW2060 engines.
In v0.99, the aircraft will cast a shadow in all virtual cockpit views. The 767 now has full DirectX 12 support in P3D v5 and got a new rain effect with it. The yoke checklist has received slider animation. More mouse controls to some of the 2D pop-up windows are added. So far the new features.
But as mentioned earlier, there are also many bug fixes. The autopilot now moves the yoke as well. There are many fixes with the systems. The gear retract animation sequences is fixed as well. First the main door gears, then the nose door and finally all gears retract. As usual, the full changelog can be found at the bottom of the article.
