We need exact models, that has not moving propellers. Because they did fix lots of them for su2 beta. I was so happy for it yesterday to see moving propellers with Asobo passives, but clearly not all airplanes was fixed. I can investigate this later with the Asobo passive models.

When will this bug be fixed? It works on the H125, so why not the others? The most are not rotating and got a fake image.

Somehow it’s currently a bit hit and miss, take this Cessna as an example:

1. prop stands still on LOD0 while moving:
   
   
2. prop stands still on ~LOD1:
   
   
3. prop rotating on ~LOD2:
   
   

This is not consistent even in this case. On the same simobject the prop also rotates sometimes on LOD 0 properly while moving but stops when the aircraft stops - then continues when moving forward but suddenly stops again when looking from further away first.

It’s a pretty strange behavior which seems to be linked to the LODs and acts different between different simobjects.

P2012 + Cessna 210:

on the P2012 the prop is rotating fine, on the C210 it’s still.

However as the P2012 holds short the props are still:

Another P2012 which holds short at the same location, props are running this time:

Another case, same session, same airport:
Cessna 185F standing still, LOD0 with prop rotating fine at all distances

It seems the C185F is working quite well in these regards but is missing pilots and registry:

The A380 has also some issues - the right hand engines are animated while the left hand ones are not. Also the wheels don’t rotate as well as the wings look like they are completely empty (they are not bent down, the outboard engines are hanging way to high above ground)

Maybe a model behavior definition error.

Hey DementedCorn327,
There are a whole bunch of “Fixed the propeller blur” items in the release notes, more than what we saw in the beta. Wondering if this is fixed for you.

[DementedCorn327]

No luck so far searching for AI propeller aircraft. Will try again and report back. Thank you !

Real time online on germany/uk area a
would be good pick for next 3 hours.

Finally was able to spot yesterday an AI Live Traffic King Air at KJFK but issue still occurs.
Both propellers were not spinning at all. One totally stopped, the other one with a frozen blurry movement:
