Hello guys, in marketplace (PC, Win11, MSFS2020, Sim bought in Microsoft Store) I get the following issue when I try to make a new purchase: "Another transaction is still pending. Please wait a few moments, or contact support if this issue persists." I tried to do all the recommended troubleshooting according to google and Microsoft, but still, no success. Maybe anyone can help me out here? Thank you!

Yesterday was an amazing day, with the Blacksquare Starship release, and the FSLabs A320 Neo release. That's two high quality planes, released on the same day. Sometimes, we have a certain short time period, perhaps over several days, perhaps over a few weeks, or perhaps even in one single day like yesterday, where we get multiple high quality releases in MSFS. I think this goes to show how strong the MSFS 3rd party dev scene is. That's all the better for us MSFS users, to have so many options to choose from, because the 3rd party developer scene is still going strong in MSFS. And before you say MSFS 2024 was a poor release and the MSFS user numbers are wor…

Hi folks. I have been pulling my hair out for three days just from trying to set up bindings and save the profiles. I could not get anything to work in SU3 with regards to saving/exporting/importing profiles. I went back to SU2 and things seemed to be working better. However, I will set up a profile, then export it to have a copy, but the next time I go in, the profile can no longer be found anywhere. And even though I have all of my profiles exported, when I try to import them, the "Import" function is grayed out. Can anyone help me sort any of this out? If I can't save and recall profiles, how am I supposed to get planes ready to fly? Please help if …

I have a new Windows 11 PC. Have installed MSFS 2020. This was not an easy process and had to use Xbox to install even tho the game was purchased from the Microsoft store. It partially loads. gets about half way (to Bush Trips screen) then just aborts with no message. I have followed a number of suggestions in the FlightSimulator forum but no luck. Nothing is in the Community folder, Windows language is correct, time and date correct, FS is currently in "vanilla" mode, but still does not load up. Running as administrator. Does anyone have any other suggestions to try. I could clone my old pc but don't really want to bring over all the stuff I dont want. Tha…

Hello I don't fly in the US on flight sim much and as such don't own many add on airports in that part of the world. Today I flew into KSEA which is one of the handcrafted Asobo airports. While the detail of the airport itself is quite nice, I noticed there were black lines where the terrain squares join on the airport, as well as some rather large cliffs and steps where the terrain levels are different from one tile to the next. If you hit these at speed like while landing or taking off it would catapult your aircraft into the air and cause a crash. It seems these are related to photogrammetry being on in the area, as turning it off seems to make these issues d…

Just Dropped. Blue skies to all and “beta safe” -B https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/sim-update-3-beta-1-5-8-0-release-notes-june-18th-2025/726580 Multiple active investigations are in progress for the performance issues reported on Sim Update 3, but we need your help! We’re continuing to narrow down cause of the performance issues, and have added additional telemetry to the latest SU3 flighting update (1.5.8.0) to aid our investigation. Please note 1.5.8.0 may cause severe performance degradation around large airports and when restarting flights (most severe on Xbox Series X|S) . However, the data and feedback you provide is critical to solving t…

Hi all, Today I bit the bullet and bought a month(ly) subscription for SI, was looking forward to it and after many months I reckoned SI would have matured a bit. Disclaimer: I know it is early access so my expectations were not that high, but still... I had some. To be honest, my first flight was rather terrible, to say the least. I know... only a first flight... but still. Flight plan was: LGSK/19 N0299F200 SIGF1F SIGFO B1 SKP L617 LEKPO LEKP1K LGTS/28 in a TBM 850 I wonder if other users have (sometimes) the same experience. Here are a few issues: After departure tower handed me of to approach and they told me to stick to the SID altitu…

In MSFS2024 when MANUAL PUSHBACK is selected, the front of the PMDG 300-ER lifts similar to the the profile when rotated on the runway for takeoff. When PUSHBACK is stopped, the front of the A/C drops to the tarmac.....and ready for pushback again. This problem does not happen with MSFS 2020. Is anyone else having this problem ? Is there a fix ? Known issue ?

At 2024 I have two ways of measuring my FPS, the Asobo MSFS Dev app, and the Ambitious Shift Z app, but strangely, the Dev app shows exactly the double of the ShiftZ number, For example, when flying at my normal average of 40/50 Fps, Dev shows 80/100 FPS, which of both is the real one ?

Can some kind soul please explain to me how I can configure hardware control sensitivity settings per type of aircraft, eg A319, A320 and A321. I just cannot seem to figure out how to do so. As the control sensitivities for the Fenix A319 differ a lot from the Fenix A320 and A321 (especially when taxiing or after landing), I just want to have separate settings for these aircraft. Any help, advise, tips etc. will be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Hans

For some unknown reason I cannot login into the FSiPanel forum. Today I've installed the PMDG OC3 and updated the 777-300 in MSFS2020. When I start FSiPanel I get the following message: "A new WASM module update is available. Please close MSFS 2020 to continue. " I tried this two times (close MSFS and restart). But I still get the same FSiPanel message. I don't even know waht WASM stands for, but I'm using PMDG/FSiPanel since quite some time and had never to manually add anything. When I added a new a/c (PMDG or iniB), FSiPanel asked me to restart the sim and that was it. But this time this seems to be not enough. Any ideas what I have to do or what is going wro…

So my urges to sim come and go. When they come, I want to sit down and get into the fun. Instead, with 2024 I'm greeted with degraded bandwith messages as soon as I get the world screen up, and the loading into the mission itself (career mode) takes like 10+ minutes. I'm more likely to keep quitting the game than actually playing it.

Ive been on msfs 2024 now for a couple of weeks, flew the pmdg 777 for many hours crash free until today. I had a random 0xc0000005 crash today in vr. I changed two settings on this flight, turned off smt, and turned on nvidia reflex+ boost. Is reflex+ boost known to cause any issues or was this just random? Before I switched to 2024 i hadnt had a crash in msfs2020 in at least 6+ months.

In MSFS2024 how to I check the weigh and balance (or CG) position for left and right (sorry if terminology is wrong)? In the EFB I can only see CG movement forward (aft?) and backward. Sorry if this information is readily available - I can't seem to find it. Thanks!

I remember a few years ago Horizon had mentioned that the 787-10 was going to get the same treatment as its 787-9. Not long after they published some early screen shots of the project on the fsnews.eu website. https://fsnews.eu/horizon-simulations-787-10-for-msfs-revealed/ It was supposedly not far from release but interestingly that release did not happen. Is it still in the works or is it abandonware now? The Kuro and Horizon 787 is nice improvement over default. Not exactly study level but I have fun with them occasionally. The 787-10 seems sort of left behind as mentioned in the article above. Obviously a nice and new study level 787 would be n…

The website says: Interactive ATC Scenarios FSiPanel enables full flights under ATC coverage, from clearance delivery to parking at your destination FSiPanel provides setup functionalities for practicing approachs and landings, okay I understand that. But they do not provide ATC functionality right? If not every flight can be done with whatever ATC so why mentioning it?

Hi Just wondered if this is a incompatability issue or something to do with the beta of 2024 I've noticed with the latest beta my sim crashes when using a combo of pyrogue's EGPH and the default diamond aircraft. The weird thing is when using payware aircraft at the same airport,it's all fine and when i use the diamond aircraft at non payware airports its fine . Has anyone come across this or similar issues

I know how to uninstall the sim but when I reinstall it, all the settings are still there and I'd like to be able to reinstall it as if it's never been on the computer. My Honeywell bindings are a mess and my graphics are not setup right. I remember during the original install the graphics setting were suggested by the Sim. I'd like to have that again.
