First, I would like to say your product is one of the best immersion software's for X-Plane 11. I have been using XPrealistic for over a year and love it. The recent update to a plug-in is awesome and for only 5 dollars to existing users, you can't beat it. I'm having only one issue. X-Plane for me will not close properly. I have to do a forced shutdown. I always get the message "X Plane is not responding correctly." I removed XPrealistic and X-Plane closes normally like it should. Do you have any ideas what to do about this?
The vibrations say A LOT to your sub conscience about the airplane you're flying. You get a sense of how light or heavy it is, how solidly it's built, the power and stability of the engines...movement of air over speed brakes. I got XPR yesterday and am still tuning, but it's impressive and changes the nature of things. There's simply more depth to the airplanes now.
This plugin really adds so much immersion. I’m used to the head shake plugin but this is so much better because the plane shakes rather than the view. Also nice to see Barton airfield
Hey Q8! Truly a perfect detailed review , not surprised coming from you! I’ve had XP-Realistic since day one, I was actually the first one to dL it (please hold your applause 👏 😂) and even then it was one of the must have addons. This new version looks like it kicks butt and I will def get it for the 4.99 asking price. Thanks Roy for your hard work buddy. And thank you q8 for your dedication to show us what’s happening in the flight sim world. You’re tops my friend.
@@statters same with me mate, just past a year since my last flight, was going for my cpl, i think it was also an aldinga to parafield flight, such a cool airport to fly into, but money became an issue 😫, all the best with your future flying👍
Thank you for this video professional informative and fun to watch I am purchasing this plugin for my x-plane 11 . It helps me because as a 72 yr old simmer I just bring my iPad to my Xplane desktop play your videos and as they say a picture paints a 1000 words so your videos paint a 1,000,000 thank you again. Ps as you mentioned in a previous video you visit the north east I live 4 miles from Tynemouth Long Sands Thank you again 👏👏👏👏👏
Great review Q8 . This addon looks & sounds amazing . You know if an addon is good if you can just sit watch & listen to it for hours . Will have to give it a try & see how things go
Beautiful! If I sit back and close my eyes I'm there, the best sounds. Head anticipation excellent too. Thank you for your review Q8Pilot, and for taking one for the team with that landing, awesome! ;-)
Nice plugin, bought it, unfortunately it conflicts with XPUIPC, it makes X-plane 11 hang on exit, I had to remove it because I need XPUIPC. Hopefully they will fix that bug in the next version if there is one and I won't have to pay full price for the revision. Great reviews as always Q8, Thank you.
A nice demonstration of what appears to be a great enhancement for X-Plane. I think the effects provided will really make X-Plane as close to the real thing as is possible. By the way, it's great to see you back on RU-vid. I'm sure that you were missed by many flight simmers while you were in temporary retirement!
Thank you Captain for the review!! I loved the 1st version,this one looks very amazing specially the sounds. Its a must have for me as well as a weather engine👍
I find it both sad and interesting that after 2 years you have not gotten a single reply to your question! I want to buy this product but I am worried that it will not work and I don't see any support or responses to the many people who have asked questions! Do YOU like it? Would YOU recommend this Addon for X-Plane 11? I really want it, but I don't want to get burned! Any thoughts you might share on this?
Hi Q8, great video and I have to totally agree, the immersion levels in the V2 version are far superior to V1, as indeed is the user interface. I downloaded this plugin today (paid just $4.99 for an upgrade) and was blown away (literally lol) by the wind affects on the aircraft, the head turn/shake etc., just need to test it out more to find out what else it does. Thanks again and thanks to the developers for a masterful piece of software. XP11 will never be the same again lol!! Regards from the UK
V1 was a great already, despite LUA scripting (is one of the fastest script languages anyway). Will upgrade to V2 for sure, after your review, thank you.
I didn't know you were back...glad to see this. However I'm not a moderator any longer on sim-outhouse. I retired to help Eagle clubs by building flight simulators. Glad your back my friend.
Brilliant video I just came after you told me about this plugin after your beluga stream.I have a quick question.Does this cut fps by much if so how many ,many thanks.

Hi, nice video as usual ! What version of X Plane do you use ? If you're using Vulkan, have you winds aloft ? No wind on your 737 ND, but maybe it's a standard/neutral weather. I can't use the V1 of XpRealistic because of this problem... :-(

Thank you for this amazing review. I bought it and it’s indeed a fantastic addon. It completely transforms XP11, taking the immersion to another level. BTW, what is this airport you used with the Cessna? Thanks and best regards!
After watching your video on XPRealistic Pro V2 I just upgraded mine to V2 from the X-Plane.org store However, the upgrade is not free but, will cost any existing V1 user only $4.99 by using the discount coupon given at their original purchase online invoice.
Nice video again! Also, I had 2 crashes of X-Plane as well when exiting. I did not look into yet, but with me it also happened after installed xprealistic v2. At least I know what to look at first.
Hello Q8Pilot! I absolutely love this new version of XPRealistic, just a quick question, what modifications did you use for this C172. Is this an REP pack for the 172? Thanks very much!
I upgraded to V2 yesterday, but I noticed two disturbances: One, xplane11 gets stuck for long on exit till you have to call task manager. My System i7-7700 3.6/16 GB RAM. Second, for every aircraft, let it be default or ZIBO, the aircraft moves in a weightless way on landing short Finals. It drifts away like a paper and rolls out of control on either side. Its consistant with all aircrafts. I reverted back to V1 and things are Ok 😕 .. Thoughts?

Gonna upgrade first thing in the morning (after a walk with the dog :-)) and after what I just seen in your excellent review - as usual, I totally agree with the points of the Koeweit jury ! Thanks for sharing. Regards, Eddy
Climbing out of Leadville in a baron when I hit about 12,000 feet the clear air turbulence put me into hey very unusual attitude. Was quite frightening till I realized I could turn it off ha ha
Thanks for another great review. I also notice X-Plane 11 won't shutdown after I installed XPRealistic and instead I have to crash it via the Task Manager.
Thank you for this Video Q8! I have a question: what about the original sounds? If there is a sound for the flaps already installed by the airplane, does this sound also working? Or is it disabled?

Amazing Review! I'm new to your channel and an aspiring pilot (doing ground school at the moment), and I've used many of your reviews to set up my sim for practicing the lessons. One plugin I have not been able to find is the one you use to create live city traffic, like all the cars passing by in minute 1:58. If you don't mind, can you let me know which plug in is that one? Thank you!

@@atomicpaper1 Thank you for your comment - very true, no response whatsoever. I gave up posting comments or liking videos here for the same reason. It seems to be a one-way channel only. Regarding your question, I DIDN'T like XP Realistic - it's been a while since I used it but I remember uninstalling it after 2 weeks. Maybe it works for other people but for me, I found it was too much tweaking to do and didn't have the time to fiddle with it to find my ideal setting. What I used was the Reality Expansion Pack For X-Plane 11, SoundMaxx, Active Sky XP, and a few others - and that's it. I kept it simple. It served my purpose better. I now use more MSFS2020.
Thank you SO VERY MUCH for replying! It means a lot to know that SOMEBODY out there cares!!!!! It breaks my heart not to get to try what seems like everybody is enjoying so very much! Do the add ons that you chose to use do any of the same type of things that realistic is supposed to accomplish?
@@atomicpaper1 No, none of them do all what XP Realistic do. The Reality expansion pack is an add-on for the Cessna 172 that makes the aircraft more realistic in flight. SoundMaxx is decent at environmental sounds and Active Sky is for weather simulation. That's enough for me. If you don't mind fiddling with lots of settings, maybe XPRealistic is for you. To me, the "realistic" part was more of an "overcharge". You can also try going to the X-Plane forums and read the comments there. They have very good discussions on almost any topic related to X-Plane.
What happens when payware addons already have some of the effects? Do I have to disable them in XPRealistic each time I change the aircraft? Because I want to prevent "double" effects
I have bought this very nice addon too, but I get too much shaking at a low altitude at landing. Before touchdown. For a too long period of time. I tried to switch off everything one by one, but still couldn't get rid of this excessive shaking, so I couldn't figure out what causes that. Can somebody give me a hint? Thank you in advance! :)
You can adjust the intensity of all effects or turn them off. You can also create one profile and link it to all your aircraft. Then you can simply modify the profile of each aircraft keeping the default settings you have created.
@@Q8Pilot Thank you very much, Captain! YES, I've found them at last, they were the flaps drag and the gear drag. Anyway, you were SO RIGHT, this add-on is AMAZING, it blows my mind, unbelievable! An absolute must-have. THANK YOU FOR THE GREAT TIP as well! :)))
Thank you for this nice video. Your graphics looks amazing.! I'm also having the same exit problem since this version. Lets hope it will be fixed soon.
Great video and awesome plugin! One thing I really can't understand is the price difference between the V1 (15$) and V2 (35$). Never had any problems with V1 and don't see a reason to pay 5$ just for a new GUI. Thanks for all your content though! ;-)
The plugin has be re-written as a stand alone plugin, that's a lot of work if you ask me. If you are happy with the previous version, you can still keep it.
Hello Q8Pilot, first of all thank you for those videos ypu are presenting. Before I purchase XP-realistic I would like to know if XP-realistic works on Vulkan? Thank you and stay safe.
I have bought v1 through SimMarket.com. I'm still waiting for them to activated the discounted or even place the new version out for sale. v1 is the only version out for sale there
Great video as usual I used to owe the old one I will upgrade a quick question how do you get such beautiful scenery I buy from Orbx but never had such great sceneries any advise . I have all UK from Orbx as well as California, Florida , but never such clear and immerse looking . I hope you can give me some advise
Which resolution do you play on? Also have a look on the recommended settings in Xplane by OrbX as you need to be on pretty high graphic settings to get the best results out of it. And if that is not enough, have a look on XVision to get the last bit of quality out of Xplane. Hope that helps :-)
