Freeware B777-300ER aircraft simulation for X-Plane 11

Over 10,000 downloads - Started on October 26, 2016

The digital simulation of the Boeing 777-300ER is a hobby I have been working on, developing my skills as a researcher, 3D modeller and coder - including a high fidelity 3D cockpit. I decided to create this aircraft after not being satisfied with the already existing downloads and made it free for everyone who shared the same want.

The result is a massive seven year open-source project with over hundreds of manhours dedicated to it, over 5 programming languages used, hundred of thousands of vertices, and more than a thousand lines of code rewritten and iterated up on again and again.

This is in early development and therefore is not representable of what the finished product will be like.

Describe the problem
I downloaded your 777 for XP11 but when I loaded XP it just quits when I try to load the aircraft and I've tried several times but couldn't get it to work.

I recently downloaded your 777-300ER v0.42.0 ED and I currently use XP11.41 and when I loaded the plane, XP suddenly quits. But when I put your plane as an AI aircraft when I'm flying a different aircraft, your plane shows up as AI.

Same said for v0.41.1 which says it works for XP11, (It doesn't work at all).

To Reproduce

1. Load aircraft

Screenshots
None.
