Ugh....as a classic airliner fan who has actually flown on 727-200s numerous times, I'd love to purchase this - IF I could port it into MSFS 2024, that is - but I don't see any language in the ad about a 24' suitable version? But hopefully soon they'll have a MSFS 2024 native version, and I'll surely buy it then (especially if it comes with United and Continental Saul Bass Liveries, or Northwest Orient thermometer).

I found this method pretty interesting and logical. Have any of you tried it already? Many people in the comments are reporting a very smooth experience after implementing it. https://youtu.be/651r5ZtJOuE

I used to use Bullguard without any issues, then they got taken over by Norton and foolishly I kept my subscription going. The latest update from Norton has played havoc with the peripheral software interacting with MSFS 2020 (I haven't bit the bullet to 2024 yet). The peripherals being TDS GTN750, LittleNavConnect and the Status Indicator Panel from Turtle Beach. I delved into the settings of Norton and told it to "Allow" all these APIs but still it interferes, with not allowing them complete and full access. What other virus/firewall software do other members use ? It's about time I changed from Norton.

Had a good flight which ended gracefully. Normal end to sim with everything working as desired. Start new sim session and find the Hat switch on the CH Yoke now has many new bindings that conflict with what had worked so well in prior session. Same profile name but many new bindings. Got all that straightened out and had a good flight which ended gracefully. Normal end to sim with everything working as desired. Next day started another sim session - CH Yoke remains as last used but Bravo Throttle Quadrant has now lost the Increase Flap binding. The Decrease binding is still there but the Increase binding is missing. This problem of one or two bindi…

Seems to support what a lot of us believed and have been saying... Guess this is the new standard over "Steam Numbers" alone which some always argued wasn't representative however it was very much showing the same trends. In "my opinion" these numbers are the most definitive indicator of the lack of Execution from Asobo... Had they succesfully delivered 2024 in the state people were expecting there is NO WAY 2020 holds on like this. It's purely 24 dropping the ball when it was theirs for the taking. Undeniable based on the numbers. 2:1 to 2020... Poor P3D 😞 XP also on the rise... https://navigraph.com/blog/survey-2024?utm_source=discord&utm_medium=co…

Am I flogging a dead horse here? I don't have any of the betas installed - so this question relates to the current/standard version of MSFS 2024. Is there a way of adding new liveries for aircraft bought/installed in Marketplace? I'm under the impression that you simply can't do that yet, as Marketplace content is encrypted and not accessible from added/new liveries. Is it a no-go - or is there a convoluted way of doing it after all?

am fed up of VR as am getting claustrophobic with my Pimax headset so thinking about trying triple monitor. I have 1 x 43 inch TV and can buy another 2 same size. My intention is to either get the wingwing units for either airbus or boeing, logitech and stream decks besides the ipads. I want the front monitor to show the outside from the cockpit (this will remove the middle bar) and left and right monitors for left and right window panels. Is this possible as I cannot find a way to set it up. Tried with extending monitors etc etc but no go.

Hello, In the MSFS 2024 community, I placed the EGLL scenery from Iniscene V 3.1.4. When I land, the runway displays two center lines. So, apparently, the EGLL scenery from Iniscene is overlapping the MSFS 2024 Premium scenery. Furthermore, during the final approach, I experience significant stuttering+++. NB: In MSFS 2020, EGLL Iniscene excludes the scenery by default. Are you experiencing this problem? If so, what is the solution? Thanks in advance.

Flying from Sausalito VOR (SAU) to KFSO VOR at 10,000' 225 kts in TBM 930 - empty community folder. Sim stable, scenery wonderful, clouds perfect.

Long story short, they look less than great. Is this the norm? I would like to fly under them, but it looks like they are solid. Here's an example from Cleveland, OH.

The poor launch of FS24 has taken a toll on user stats from Steam. I am sure that MS and Asobo are looking at this data, so hopefully they get their act together. Max Players: November 24 - 24,863 December 24 - 6,787 (72.7% drop) January 25 - 5,818 (14.3% drop) February 25 - 4,763 (18.1% drop) March 25 - 4,433 (6.9% drop) Overall drop: 82.17% During the same period MSFS has seen a drop of 28%. Meanwhile X-Plane 12 has seen an increase of 13% over that period.

So, after a hiatus from 2024, I have returned to it a couple of days ago to see if/how things got better. The ATC is still a circus - assigning me initial altitude of 1200 feet when my cruise is FL240 etc... But mainly I wanted to test the new iniBuilds A300 version that came out today before I splurged on their A350. Did a short flight from FAPE to FACT and on approach everything on the flight deck froze - all instruments were stuck in their positions, nothing in the cockpit would click. AC was still responding to manual control input but barely and ended up being uncontrollable. Is this a thing that happens to any of you? Or maybe just with that aircraft? It was a deepl…

@FSHud I have a problem with FSHud, which is my fault. I cannot create a support ticket from FSHud Dashboard (as I normally would) as I cannot get in. * I have gone to discord and messaged directly to FSHud_Admin requesting help. * I have logged into my web account and requested support via their support link. FSHud has been very helpful and responsive in the past. I hope he is ok. I know the issue is my fault, but I still need help.

Hi Folks, I have just seen the latest pics of FlightFX's Citation which looks very, very nice indeed. I'm afraid I'm not familiar with them, however. What sort of level of simulation are we likely to expect? Is it more at the Carenado, jolly lovely looking but a tad 'lite', or the HotStart Challenger in XPL, which seems to be simply the real Challenger but just on a screen 😁. I should absolutely adore a Citation in the sim but I'm not in the market for 'lite' products, really. Cheers all
