Finally have some new add-ons to ake a look at in the Official Store. Paderborn has been added there and is still free. Nice to see them formally arranged with pics. Going to stick with base game for now but am sure something will pop-up to tempt me eventually. CJ

Not sure what happened. But after running the sim with latest patch, some buildings looks like they are missing data to be completed. I didn’t have this before, are the bing stuff broken? I did not change any settings. The sim do run more smoothly, nice, but things are not as pretty as they used to be. Any one else experience this? It looks like black deformed buildings.

I usually buy Orbx products only from my Orbx account since they keep track of what I own and I get cross sim discounts However today, by mistake I bought Vienna airport marked as Goya simulation (didn't realize its an Orbx release) from my MSFS2020. I checked my account in Orbx and it does not show I own this airport. Did I make a mistake? Manny

When I set my display options to full screen and save it, the next time I start FS2020 the display returned to windowed mode again. Changing it to full screen and saving it again works as long as I stay in this session. Quitting FS2020 and then starting it up again returns the displaymode into windowed. Am I the only one experiencing this phenomenon? Have any of you an idea how I can get my displaymode stick to full screen again? Thanks.

Maybe it's time for me to give up on MSFS. Since the last patch, two out of the three aircraft I most enjoyed flying no longer work properly for me. I'm almost ready to give up. 😠 😠 😠

When Honeycomb Alpha Yoke is connected and it's "sticky" 2-position switches are assigned, various bugs manifests themselves (10-deg heading bug increments, 1000ft alt setting increments, exaggerated trim inputs). Do you know if this issue can be solved by not assigning the commands to the "sticky" buttons in the sim interface, but via the FSUIPC 7 "Buttons & Switches"? Pete Dowson, the FSUIPC author is explaining that usage of FSUIPC causes massive FPS drop due to the bug Asobo introduced in the release version of simconnect (was working properly in beta). So seems like the usage of FSUIPC will not help until the patch fixing simconnect will be released (in a we…

Hello, Is anyone else experiencing this? When i activate the IAS Climb/FLC mode (regardless of airplane) the AP instantly pitches up quite fast to about 20-25 degrees up reducing speed to 10-20 kts below the selected speed just to pitch down again to speed up. Actually vers slowly capturing the selected speed and sometimes staying below it forever. Looks like a bug to me. Best

For the past few hours my update has been stuck on the fs-base-cgl-0.1.30.fspatch.002 - I just thought my internet was being slow or the servers were packed, but that appears not to be the case. Is anyone else having the same issue?

When I click on Sensitvity in control settings I no longer see anything to adjust. No graphs no sliders. All I get is a blank window: All I can do is click Done to close the window. Tried a full reinstall. Also tried deleting the FS2020 config file and let it rebuild but no joy. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks, Lloyd

Have any of you guys messed with the SCALAR settings as well as the STABILITY settings in any of the aircraft config files? if so, what are you guys using? in the Tbm, I decreased the rudder prop wash setting from 4 to 2 and the insane left turning tendency on the ground has been reduced. just curious as to what other people are doing if anything.

Very frustrated. Sim was working fine. The latest update was updating for 18 hours and I thought this is not right since original install was only few hours. I stopped and uninstalled everything and tried to do a clean install and that didn't work either. It was taking more than 20 hours and it was going on a loop. I called microsoft and they said to fill out the refund form which doesn't load in any browser. https://support.xbox.com/help/subscriptions-billing/buy-games-apps/refund-orders Finally they said they will research the issue and call me back, which they didn't. So everything is broken now. I paid $120 and I can't even do anything. I have seen man…

It had been my understanding that an additional set of liveries for the default aircraft was being made available as a promotional gift for this week through 30 September in the in-sim Marketplace. Per this 18 August reference: https://news.xbox.com/en-us/2020/08/18/microsoft-flight-simulator-available-now/ "...In celebration of the return of the beloved franchise, all players will be able to claim a free “Aviators Club” livery set as a special thank you for being one of the first to take flight from next week through September 30, 2020. The livery set will be available starting next week for this limited time in the in-sim marketplace and includes Microsoft Fli…

Hi folks. I had been using MSFS 2020 for a little while. Then the large update just went in the other day. Now the program won't finish coming up. I get the Hit Any Key To Start, or whatever that message says, and then the program never comes up. The little progress icon on the lower right stops moving at all and no matter how long I wait it won't come up. I am ok deleting the whole thing and starting over, except for one thing: I had a CH Products tech support person help me set up my controller profiles for the CH accessories I own. I don't want to lose those profiles. Is there a way to save the controller profiles, delete and reinstall the product from scra…

Just been having a look around LA and a couple of other places, between 2300 to 0030 Friday night UK time, and was getting quite slow scenery loading, and lots of blank ground in the middle distance and good old-fashioned scenery popping up as I approached. Noticed from task manager getting quite low (10-12 mbps and occasional few hundred kbps) download speeds over my connection (I have max 75mbps). I seem to remember this happening before at this sort of tod, but I haven't done any serious tests or comparisons, so just wondering if anyone else has experienced this. Tried a couple of other random places and got the same. I've no idea at all about the capacity an…

https://flightsim.to/ https://www.msfsaddons.org/scenery Thought this might help a few people, apologies if they are well known. I stumbled across the 1st link tonight via the ORBX forum, loads of decent freeware including water fixes for the Thames and smaller trees! Hopefully this helps some people who are a bit lost in the flight sim world. Cheers
