Beta is limited. Plugin cannot yet interact with the weapons (so no guided bombs).

(http://www.moodurian.com/tornado/images/x-trident-tornado-xplane11-1.jpg)
There is also a limit to the total number of weapons that can be loaded without a crash.

(http://www.moodurian.com/tornado/images/x-trident-tornado-xplane11-2.jpg)
Only basic configuration with missiles, external tanks and some conventional bombs.

(http://www.moodurian.com/tornado/images/x-trident-tornado-xplane11-3.jpg)
All other functions work as in XP10 except for FMS which had to be removed entirely.

X-Trident targets to have a fully functioning version for X-Plane 11 ready once Laminar adds support for custom weapons.

Watch this space.

X-Trident is a proactive developer and they are very active on the X-Plane forums.

Visual effects for different types of precipitation and phenomena: rain showers, snow, fog.
Reflective raindrops on windshield for 2D forward views without panel.
Volumetric cloud entrance, in-cloud and exit visual effects.
Visual effects of aircraft lighting in clouds (strobe lights, beacon lights, navigation lights, landing lights).

Nice

You thinking of getting XP11 Frankie?

Post by: Frankie on June 03, 2017, 04:00:04 PM
Yes. But only when there is X-Plane 13. Hopefully by that time, X-Plane 11 will be USD39.99, XP12 USD49.99 and XP1359.99. Then again, my current rig only meets the minimum requirements of X-Plane11.

Minimum Requirements
CPU: Intel Core i3, i5, or i7 CPU with 2 or more cores, or AMD equivalent. (Dual-core CPUs slower than 3 GHz should try the demo before purchasing.)
Memory: 8 GB RAM
Video Card: a DirectX 11-capable video card from NVIDIA, AMD or Intel with at least 1 GB VRAM

Recommended Hardware Requirements:
CPU: Intel Core i5 6600K at 3.5 ghz or faster
Memory: 16-24 GB RAM or more
Video Card: a DirectX 12-capable video card from NVIDIA, AMD or Intel with at least 4 GB VRAM (GeForce GTX 1070 or better or similar from AMD)

Have you seen  This one (https://www.justflight.com/product/tornado-gr1-download) for FSX/P3D?

Yes, I've seen Just Flight's Tornado GR1, but only on Youtube (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hXwHmTbvPLA) and online reviews (http://www.mutleyshangar.com/reviews/jg/gr1/gr1.htm). Just Flight put in a lot of research and work into their Tornado GR1 simulator. Just that I don't have a top end PC to run either Just Flight's or X-Trident's Tornado simulator.
