Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)

Post from PolyPot Software. Looks like limited support for GoFlight Modules is now available for MSFS. Knowing Steve, it won't be long before greater support is available: https://www.pollypotsoftware.org.uk/support/forum.html Rich Boll

I bought the $119 version and was charged $199 but received the Standard?

Does anyone have an idea how to get rid of the giant tooltip boxes that appear when mousing over a switch or knob on the panel?

The only thing I couldn't find when setting up my HOTAS was a nosewheel steering tiller option. I tried searching but the closest I could get to is rudder. Does that mean there is no was to turn the nosewheel without also turning the rudder in MSFS? Or am I just dumb and missing something?

I cannot believe what I am seeing. The Bonanza has a roll rate approaching that of a high performance aerobatic aircraft. It is at least two times too fast, probably three. The yaw on the ground is ridiculous. Completely over the top. Once in the air there is almost zero yaw or pitch stability, in zero wind. This thing is bucking around with a mind of its own,. This has NOTHING whatever to do with control settings. A full deflection is a full deflection and a half deflection is a half deflection. It doesn't matter what the control set up is. That is just elastoplast over a terrible flight model. Even FS98 was better than this. It is embarrassingly bad. This aircraft …

Hello Everyone, I would like to thank everyone involved in making this flight sim possible including all the beta testers. This piece of software is truly a work of art! and every work of art not matter how magnificent will have its flaw < Asobo can you please quote me in Thursday update :P It is very obvious as others have stated that this was not ready for release but off course the bean counters at Microsoft are clearly not passionate about flight simming. I truly hope they fix the bugs or this could be a big PR disaster from closure of Aces team then failure of Flight in 2012 and then comes 2019 and many of us were being cautious but then came every Thur…

Hi All, So im on attempt number 10 to install the game. I downloaded via Microsoft Store and once it gets to the the patch update, it downloads 6 patch files and closes down. I have run as admin and deleted the mentioned patch files to re-download and it wont complete. Any ideas?

Hi all - I’ve been away from flight simming for +10 years and now can’t wait to get back in with MSFS 2020! Does anyone have any insights on liveries planned or repaint capabilities on the default aircraft? Im really looking forward to repaint these amazing looking models. Thanks, Amir

Is anyone else having the problem where it asks for a disk at the beginning? I read about some people having this problem but not sure if it was resolved yet. I downloaded last night and restarted my computer but I still have the problem. Can anyone shed some recent light on this? Thank you.

I need help please to get a refund and can't find the place for it. I would appreciate if someone has a link for it. Thank you!

Did 6 short flights in MFS 2020 taking off from a runway every time. Sometimes terminating the flight without landing but was surprised to see that according to my logbook I made 1 successful takeoffs and 3 successful landings. What do you need to do to qualify as a successful takeoff.

Instead of going on a forum and venting about what the game does do, how about you take all the feedback and send it to Asobo. You guys complains for months you weren't part of the beta. Well open beta is here. Right now. Go ahead and file the zendesk ticket in a constructive manner. I think you will be surprised how much things will evolve over time. You will not get payware level aircraft with stall and spin. I think Asobo said it themselves, they are better people than them that creates aircraft to a level they will never be able to achieved. So let them. P3D and XP11 is still there if you wan to fly your payware. In the meantime, Can we please let everyone enjoy what…

Is there anyway to improve the taxi on the GA aircraft? They are all over.

I bought MSFS from Steam after cancelling my MS Store preorder. The installation yesterday morning ran perfectly. On a 69Mbps connection, it took about 3-4 hours to download. Once finished, it ran without issue. My PC is a mATX, with a Gigabyte mATX motherboard, i7-8700 CPU, 16GB DDR4 2666, and Zotac Mini GTX 1070 8GB. I have the sim installed on a new 1TB M.2 SSD with over 500GB free. My settings are ultra, with resolution at 1080p on a 4K TV, FXAA and V-Sync enabled, FPS locked at 30, 32GB rolling cache (no manual cache set up yet), and rendering scale at 150 (because it improves picture quality better than higher anti-aliaising settings, on my TV). Live weath…

Does anyone know how to walk inside cabins? can't find any option. may alpha testers encountered this before?

Drzewiecki Design is offering three small airfields, all natively built, for MSFS. Details and installation instructions in the following Facebook post:

Hi everyone i run p3d at 4k with medium settings but since i switched to fs2020 i can run ga aircraft at 2046x1440 at high settings in high density areas at 35-40fps but when i go to airliners i get about 15 fps and it wont change even if i put my settings to minimum. it only goes down. I cant seem to figure out why. my system specs is Ryzen 7 2700x 3.8ghz Boost clock 4.1ghz temp is around 90c 40gb Ddr4 3200mhz ram Rtx 2070 8gb. I dont have a aio installed yet but just bought a 240m msi liquid cooler aio. I also play on a tv and noticed a cpu bottleneck but dont understand how considering the ryzen 7 should be able to handle it its 8 cores 16 threads. Thanks so much for r…

Hi there, bought the premium DVD edition and thought it would just help with install time compared to download time. But now it keeps asking for the DVD 1 each time I start MSFS. That's really annoying since I just wired a dvd drive for installing. Anything I can do about this? BR

Afternoon, I know MS Flight 2020 has just been launched. Anyone had any issues with joysticks. My Hotas V2 worked in all otehr sims but I get no profile mapping for it in Flight Sim 2020 Mike

Does the final version install over the Beta, or do you have to uninstall before installing the release version?

All, Is the standard non virtual cockpit view available in 2020 like FSX? If yes, what is it called? Tim

I increased rollling cache to 50gb, same ssd (mine is a 1tb nvme on pci gen 4 so you might want to test if for you it's better to use a different SSD) It made everything much smoother, I have way less popups, terrain morphs, and things like that, stutters are reduced by 80% and they're minimal stutters, and I suspect it lowered the load on the hardware by looking at the win+G thingy that I don't bother to remember how it's named. I might gradually reduce the size of the cache to find a sweet spot though, 50gb looks stupidly big, and might not be worth it.

Wow that official microsoft forum has to be the worst forum I have ever seen
