The X-Plane General Discussions Forum

And... that's yet another specific characteristic of the X-Plane Ecosystem, but it's particularly rewarding to know it starts at the very core of the development behind this Great Flight Simulator, at LR... For years I've been able to directly address Austin regarding the most varied subjects regarding X-Plane, specially in the flight dynamics area. Austin is a brilliant mind, dedicated to his causes, and when a decent and as well documented as possible is presented to him he does his best to find a time slot and dedicate time to it. Sometime ago, more than a year ago, I started posting about a strange effect experienced with some prop aircraft in Xp12…

Hi everyone All of a sudden I am getting a lot of XPlane 12 freezing, does not crash to desktop, but also does not unfreeze, so I have to end the session. Can anyone offer some insights, my logfile is pasted below.

X-Plane Flight Simmer Flies A320 Level D Simulator Perfectly!!

That doesnt mean its working right, Ever since XP11 and the transition from old OGL to the new vulkan platform, Laminar have being cleaning out the sewer. So not sorry, there is not much backward compatibility anymore, users demanded more and they demanded better performance with more. So Laminar did what they had to do. forcing developers to comply with the latest texture formats. programming styles etc etc to make sure everything fits within the SDK guidelines, so yes thing get shown to be broken than they get fixed and you see better performance. Bit by Bit. Look at how far its come. So if you want things to work run a separate copy of xplane with the Beta or dont comp…

New update

https://www.x-plane.com/2026/03/x-plane-is-coming-to-apple-vision-pro-with-nvidia-cloudxr/ Huh…well, that’s something genuinely new (to me at least)! So what we’ve got here is an iPhone embedded into an AR/VR headset? I.e., no other computer required!?!? Thus streaming X-Plane from anywhere with a solid internet connection. AND unlike most other cloud gaming, you’ll be able to hook up actual flight sim peripherals!! Well, this could be BIG - let’s see how it looks when it releases 😎

I want to buy a license for Map Enhancement pro but can't seem to find where in the app to do this. It's suppose to be in the app to click and purchase but hanged if I can find it. Anyone using the pro who can enlighten me?

Hello, I have been using XP12 and wanted to ask which sceneries you guys recommend. I have been only flying with default airports which I consider really decent. Also what is the opinion on JARDesign Ground Handling Deluxe? Is it equivalent to FSDreateam GSX? Thank you.

In a reply to questions regarding development for the X-Plane platform, GlidingWiki wrote: "Just for your info, after this relase, the Toliss priorities will be the A350 collab with FF and a full round of updates for the complete Toliss XPlane fleet in order to include a bunch of new things that were developed for this project. For example, all the EFB changes will be brought to the XPLane products. Have a look at the stream tomorrow to see the details 🙂" Have to show my respect & 😍 for devs that keep their compromisses with the platforms that actually made them full developers, although unfortunately we see many examples of…

Hello everyone, I am writing to share a final milestone regarding the Hamad International Airport (OTHH) project. I am proud to announce that the engineering and structural design is now 100% complete, covering all new expansions and intricate architectural details across the 15 main objects. Having developed over 80 airports throughout my career, I aimed to bring this world-class hub to the simulation community with the highest standards of accuracy. However, observing the lack of engagement and interest in this specific project, I have made a firm decision: The OTHH project is now transitioned into a "Private and Exclusive Build" for my personal use only.…

Hi Everybody, I've made numerous adjustments to my night lighting that worked out just fine, but I am having an issue adjusting older lights.

Time to go represent!! 😎 remember: the devs DO pay attention to this one because it’s the largest survey of its kind, and is designed to show not only what we use, but what we’re interested in. They do have their own private metrics, of course, but y’know: if you don’t vote, you’re not allowed to complain! 😂🤙 https://navigraph.com/survey

Hi I confess that I have been generally using 'the other one' mostly over the last year or so, but I have a real soft spot for X-plane, having starting in flight sim VR with XP11 and using that happily for a number of years. But, for all the great improvements over that time, shadow 'jaggies' in the cockpit were always its weak point. And, when first released, I had high expectations of XP12. And in many ways, it is very very good and so I come back to it every now and again. And today, with the latest update 12.4 I've just been for a flight in the Boeing 737 and like a LOT of the visuals (and the superb 'feel' of flying a big jet which was, to me, always X-p…
