  1. Hi, did get myself the inibuilds KJFK for MSFS2020 and i have to say its unusable with the RWY Bumps in 31R and 04R, i can only find old threads for this issue but seems like it never got fixed in the year 2026. How are you guys using the addon then? because i tried everything from removing every other addon from community folder, deleted the SceneryIndex folder, disabled photogrametry (did make it even worse) disabled Rolling cache, but i cannot get rid of the Bumps. Any tips highly requested. Link to Screenshot

  3. Started by waltpop,

    I'm trying to start flying (Attempting) helicopters. I selected the Bell, but it doesn't matter which one, whatever one I chose, as soon as I lift off the ground, the copter starts spinning to the right and won't stop. Actually, it starts spinning to the right even on the ground and the throttle is at idle. Any suggestions on how to get this pilot up in the air? As always thank you. You guy's always seem to pull me through and it is appreciated. Walt

  4. That's the TL;DW from the ended Twitch stream. No pricing revealed. Hands-On during this FSWeekend in Lelystad/NL

    Anyone in the US Colorado / southwest area getting problems starting MSFS 2024? I am getting the Error Server issue detected and the spinning circle. Was flying multiple flights last night with no issues.

    Flowpro is installed but I am not seeing it on the main screen. How do I activate it ? Also the task bar at the top of the active screen appears once, then disappears. So I need some help 😶

  7. I was hoping MSFS2024 would finally use newer Bing map photogrammetry for St Petersburg FL area. The downtown pier stills looks terrible while flying around beautiful St Pete. Can someone please fix the pier? VerticalSim gave us very detailed KTPA and KPIE thank you, just need the new pier 🙂

  11. To make your graphics look incredibly much sharper, so a 1080 video will look like 4K, try this: (if you have a nvidia graphics card) 1.Call up your Nvidia Control Panel by right clicking on the Desktop. 2. Go to 'Adjust desktop size and position' at the left hand side. 3. Enable 'Integer scaling' within the scaling tab. (most people have 'Aspect ratio' enabled) 4. Go to 'Manage 3D settings' at left hand side. 5. You should notice a new option at the top of the list named "Image Sharpening", click on it and a small window should appear. 6. Set 'Sharpen' to: 0.65, and 'ignore film grain': 0.17. Thats it! I found after doing this, (which was derived from …

  12. Just saw that MSFS 2024 is on sale on Steam, 20% off the price: https://store.steampowered.com/app/2537590/Microsoft_Flight_Simulator_2024/ Is this the first time MSFS 2024 has gone on sale? I don't recall MSFS 2024 going on sale before.

    It looks like PacSim quietly released their updated KSLC for 2024 (and v2 for 2020) yesterday. If you own the previous 2020 version, the upgrade is free. https://islandsim.com/salt-lake-city-intl.html

    Is anyone else also having issues trying to log in to navigraph website? For me the process immediately dumps me back to home screen without login in. I have tried on multiple devices to see if this was my PC problem but same issue on all devices so it is likely that something is wrong on their end?

    Where in the menu settings is Turbulence located ?

  19. Hello, from blind Flight Simmer Pilot Ron Kolesar. In short, I’m having a steam issue and I’ve tried to contact steam about the issue with no success. So, I thought I’d try here instead. In short the issue is as follows for an accessibility issue. When I launch FS 2024 it wants me to connect 2024 with my x box account. It shows this but I cannot click on the connect button to enter in my e-mail and password. Now, I’ve tried all three screen readers. Narrator that comes with window computers, Non-visual Desktop access AKA NVDA for short and JAWS for windows. All three with no success to access the fields to link up fs 2024 with my x …

  20. I'm fed up with landing my airliners at airports that don't have Jetways, and concluding my flights with passengers having to jump 20 feet down to the ground, out of the doors 😒😊 I'm talking about addons like the TFDi MD-11, Ini A340 and even the new AS/Toliss A346, that don't come with any stairs, as part of their ground services. In X-Plane, there was an excellent free addon called "Simple Ground Vehicles" that provided selectable, basic ground vehicles, such as stairs, luggage loaders, etc. Is anyone aware of any ground services addon that is not GSX, that could provide a similar result? I literally just want stairs for my pax to use to board and depar…
