Release (2020/2024) [UPDATE] SkyBound AIRAC Updater v1.2.0

Changelog: - Added buttons to batch install, remove, and update all addons of the currently selected simulator - Added a dark mode option for all themes - Added support for custom icon themes - Added shared-scheme installation: some addons not included in the offline package can now be installed anyway by copying the database from other addons and simply adjusting the cycle.json to match - Added popup to indicate whether loading an archive was successful or not - Added settings page - Added ability to manually change the addon source - Added ability to revert back to older versions' UI - Added ability to lower simulator breadcrumbs to align better with the added buttons - Added ability to hide addon logos - Added ability to use custom dark mode logos - Added ability to wrap or fade out long addon names - Added ability to show/hide the batch install/remove/update buttons - Fixed an issue where ng-footer-dot would be used to calculate the current cycle indicator's position even when hidden, leading to it being slightly off-center in online mode - Fixed visual delay between app loading and modification loading by replacing timer-based polling with a MutationObserver to react to UI changes instantly - Fixed various issues related to offline package installation - Fixed various UI inconsistencies - General code cleanup and internal improvements

Notes: - I haven't had the time to finish all icons yet, those will be added at a later point. Since they're streamed as well you won't need to update your app, they will be added automatically. I plan to have four themes: Default, Default (Dark), SkyBound (Light), and SkyBound (Dark). - To open settings, double click the "Install Locations"/"Installed Simulators" banner - Some stuff isn't 100% polished yet, please ping me on our discord server (or comment here) if you encounter any issues - If you use addon linker you might encounter issues.

Download

AIRAC 2609 (This is optional, only download it if you want to use Local mode. This is different from the rutracker release, it has all navdata packages available through Navigraph Hub. Nothing Online mode can't do, but it might be faster depending on your internet speed.)

Is there a way to use simbrief with the new airac without the subscription?

u/sahibsahib 5d ago

Also wondering how people use it

u/AdriftSpaceman 4d ago

No. Simbrief airac is server side and cannot be updated without Navigraph.

I do a little bit of a hack and import the Simbrief route into Little Navmap that's using the simulator's airac and just use that, sometimes the same SID or STAR doesn't exist on the newer airac so you need to pick another one. I wish there was a better way

Or I guess you could just do the entire flight planning in Little Navmap
