XP 12.3.3 is now on the street--no beta, straight to release version. Fixes issues with the new nVidia 591.44 driver, and crashes due to object instantiation.

Hello does anyone have the Xhanger Lear 35 , can anyone recommend a fmod , i noticed it didnt come with a decent sound, but for 20$ its nice

Hi Everybody, Well looks like the intermittent freezing issue has been found, seems 12.3 has a bug that will affect any plugin that creates visible models. A fix will be coming once some testing has been done to ensure the bug is gone. Looks like I'll have T/G back online real soon.

Hi folks, I went back to Xplane 12 recently in the Felis and am just absolutely loving it. One problem I have is my controls are a bit sensitive at the moment, especially in roll, but the sensitivity curve control is like something from a NASA advanced physics lecture and I don't understand how to just slightly reduce the aileron sensitivity so the Felis 742 feels a bit more like an airliner rather than a fighter when operating the ailerons. Can anyone help? Thanks all

hello i m using a pimax crystal light to run xplane12 but i cant use knob or button on the overhead panel when flyong in airliner , 737 or E190 it seems that the cursor is somehow not at the right position for button just above me . it is ok for action module further of me. I ve spot this prob on the zibo 737 and thought it is because it is a free module but i bought the E190 and i ve got the same problem in vr. i ve got to move my point of view to be able to action these modules anybody got this problem ?

Release notes (from https://www.x-plane.com/kb/x-plane-12-3-2-release-notes/) New Features X-Plane Store Demo users can now purchase X-Plane 12 directly through an integrated upgrade screen that connects to the X-Plane Store This update lays groundworks for future store functionality This one went straight to release; no Beta.

for many years in the past I have been using Microsoft Flight Simulator, most recently FSX. I have been out of flight simming for a couple of years now. I am now looking to get in again and I have looked again at FSX, but this FS is now very old and scenery looks terrible. Then I have looked at MSFS 2020 & 2024, but you need a real high-end gaming computer to play MSFS. I would have to spend a considerable amount of money to update my machine and at my age of almost 80 years (yes, in less than three months) this would not be justified. This brought me to X-Plane. The download for the normal X-Plane 12 version is priced at $59.95. Not all the world, but not really…

Is anyone bringing out a DC-8 for X-Plane 12? This plane deserves some attention.

I am using the Map Enhancement Tool to stream ortho into XP12. I am using XRoads to stop default roads from displaying, so I can see the roads in the ortho. The problem is the default autogen buildings are drawing over the roads, so towns/villages do not show the ortho roads. I cannot work out how to order the scenerypacks.ini to get the ortho roads displayed above the default aut0gen buildings - can anyone help?

Amazing time to be a flight simmer particularly flying X-Plane 12. X-Plane persistent world and career-mode services are now available from these vendors each with its pros and cons. FSE OnAir Neofly AirHauler FSPax Pilops A Pilot's Life 2 SimFly Today's topic is FSCharter plugin that has been upgraded from V1 to V2 Beta. FSCharter persistent world (like the other listed) is not exclusive to X-Plane, however X-Plane 12 provides the best experience. It is mind boggling how deep and sophisticated these plugin are evolving. Message from the author in reddit. After four years of development, FSChart…

Hi folks, I would like a keyboard command to arm the speedbrake in the Felis 747 as I can't seem to do it physically with the mouse; what command do I have to select in the Xplane menu? Also, I would like a command, the equivalent of F2 in FSX/P3D (and MSFS for that matter), which opens up the reversers on landing, then keeping the button pressed increases the reverse thrust. Then another command to cancel the reverse (the equivalent of F1 in the other sims). Does anyone know which ones I should select? I have asked on the Felis forum but it seems a little quiet on there. Many thanks all

I’m using Garmin Pilot with XP12 and was running into an issue where all traffic would disappear from the Garmin Pilot display at regular intervals, then reappear about a second later. I asked ChatGPT what might be happening, and it suggested that Garmin Pilot expects to receive traffic data every second. If it doesn’t receive an update within that time window, it assumes the feed has stopped and temporarily removes all traffic from the display. It turns out this behavior was caused by XP12’s built-in network data output, which appears to not broadcast traffic using proper GDL90 timing or intervals. Because the updates aren’t sent at the steady 1-second rhythm Garmin…

You need the base-pack for this extension. https://store.x-plane.org/FlightFactor-777-Freighter-Expansion-Pack_p_2113.html No additional download needed, run the X-Updater again. It might take some time to recognise the additional purchase.

VSKYLABS have just released this VLJ as early access. Looks to be a sophisticated product. I have limited experience of VSKYLABS but it is an aircraft that would suit me. What is the consensus of VSKTLABS products - a good company? It appears not to be a real aircraft, rather based closely on the Cessna Mustang VLJ. I'm a little concerned by the statement 'Simplified yet plausible, comprehensive 'Mustang Avionics' based on X-Plane LR X1000 with customized MFD/CAS (Crew Alert System), allows operational following Mustang procedures within reasonable margins'.

Hi all, I am having a strange issue with XP12 in VR (other sims are not having this issue). There is some sort of invisible box in the left screen of the headset that seems to be rendering enhanced graphics (is that foveated? sorry I am not too aware of the latest and greatest). But this makes it impossible for me to fly XP in VR. I dont have openXR install and go via SteamVR/OpenPimax. Googling seems to indicate I would have to edit some files in steamVR (or OpenXR) to disable foveated but before I start spending too much time on this I wanted to see if anyone here knew what I was talking about and had some sort of fix to this? The latest XP looks awesome…
