Aerobask public beta program informations - Read me first

Aerobask has decided to offer its customers the ability to participate to the improvement of our fleet by opening public beta for existing models we're currently working on. This is the opportunity to help us fix bugs before they reach everyone, and also to help making our aircraft better. It will also be time to remind us if we "forgot" some promised improvements 😇.

How do you join:

first subscribe to this post so you're aware of beta openings.
look for the pinned post announcing a model is available for testing and subscribe to it too.
in such post, grab the attached zip file and extract the skunkcrafts_updater_beta.cfg file into your existing aircraft folder OR create a new folder and put both normal and beta cfg into it.
launch the SkunkCrafts Updater: the aircraft should now show 'BETA' instead of 'PROD' in the leftmost column (see picture below).
flip between production and beta by clicking on this column or by flipping the beta checkbox in the aircraft page (see picture below).
Warning: switching between beta and prod is likely to consume an activation each time. We typically increase activation count for everyone when starting a beta.

When reporting issues:

check you're with latest version and read the changelog.
do not hack an existing unrelated post.
post only here, not in the aircraft's support forum.
when creating a new post always put aircraft and version tested in the title.
when we fix a bug that YOU reported, please take time to verify we did it right 😉.

First round of beta should start Monday 27th or Tuesday 28th with our G1000-based aircraft for X-Plane 12.1 compatibility. In the future we expect doing only one beta at a time.

Look at left column: empty means beta cfg file is not installed, 'BETA' that beta is active and 'PROD' that you access the regular version.

You can also switch between beta and prod with the checkbox:
