10.30r2 is Out and Will Probably Go Final
Posted on September 11, 2014 by Ben Supnik
X-Plane 10.30r2 is out now. You should go get this RC and try it. I believe it is very likely to go final in the next week.
There are known bugs* in 1030r2 – the plan is to put 1030r2 out as final, then issue 10.31 in perhaps a week or two to mop up about a dozen bug fixes that didn’t make in.
- By getting 10.30 out now, third parties can stop holding their breath and ship aircraft that use the new GPS.
- By giving 10.31 another week or two we lower the risk profile on some of those extra bugs.
- There’s always one big bug that gets reported as soon as we go final, so a 10.31 is inevitable; we might as well plan for it.
X-Plane 10.30 has had an incredibly long beta period, so our goal is to get it out now and unblock third parties.
* I know, you are shocked, right??
