Source encryption: encoding of Lua scripts so the source code isn't readable.There are two types of protection available: SASL (commercial version only) provides a special DRM system to protect the product from illegal useĬommercial SASL provides designers with the ability to encode and key protect their product.SASL not only translates native SDK functions but has a lot of built-in preprogrammed modules for graphics, user interaction, events processing etc.Lua scripts can be debugged on the fly without the need to recompiling.SASL scripts instantly run on all the operation systems supported by X-Plane.Lua is a high level language which is much easier to use than C++.
The benefits of SASL over the direct use of X-Plane SDK are: SASL has many preprogrammed features like font drawing, geometric shape drawing, interpolations and many other built-in features. SASL can basically do almost everything the native X-PLANE SDK can do, and in some sense even more. SASL is a very powerful, yet easy to understand framework that allows designers to write complex (or simple) plugins for their product. However, it’s not a big leap from X-Plane 11, so consider whether the improvements are worth the price.SASL – is a scripting plugin for X-Plane which connects Lua scripts and runs them in a virtual machine. The graphics are not as gorgeous and realistic as Microsoft’s offering, but the game’s realism and visual fidelity are still top-tier. If you’re an avid fan of flight simulators and want to try something other than Microsoft Flight Simulator, X-Plane 12 is worth a try. Another notable improvement is better optimization, which can provide players with higher FPS numbers when running the game. All of these new aircraft have beautifully rendered models for both the exterior and interior. This iteration of the flight simulation franchise adds the following aircraft: Airbus A330, Cessna Citation X, Lancair Evolution, Cirrus SR22, Piper PA-18 Super Cub, Van’s RV-10, F-14 Tomcat, and the Robinson R22, plus its floats version. Adjusting these parameters also returns realistic results in the simulation. Overall, it provides plenty of flexibility in weather scenarios. You can also adjust the temperature, precipitation, wave height and direction, and runway conditions. For instance visibility by distance or runway visual range. The game allows you to set price ceilings and visibility. Regardless, this game offers better visual fidelity and introduces changes to runway handling that makes it noticeably better.įurthermore, it allows players to set precise weather for the simulation. For instance, some aircraft controls still don’t pop up. This game improves on a lot of features and adds a good number of aircraft for players to experience, but the changes can feel insufficient to separate it from the previous title. X-Plane 12 feels strikingly similar to its predecessor X-Plane 11.
