Is anyone getting tiled water? I put this issue in the OF, but no one else seems to have the issue. At about 5000ft or so over water looking down...its blurry and tiled (highest settings). https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/tiles-lines-in-water/695745

Hi, it seems that FSR3 has finally made accessible FG for all RTX cards. I haven't tested it yet because I'm in the process of reinstalling the sim (since yesterday morning, because the slow speed download bug IS indeed FIXED! 🙂 ) Still a few hours to go, however if you want to test the mod and post your feedback... 😉 Credit to Nukem9 Frame generation requires a few steps to set things up correctly: Own an Nvidia RTX graphics card with updated drivers. Ensure Hardware-accelerated GPU scheduling is enabled in Windows Settings. Install this mod in your game directory. Launch your game and disable vertical sync (V-Sync) in the s…

Hi All, Is it possible to assign keyboard commands to Alternate Flap Extension, eg. the down arrow? (I'm using PMDG 737 in MSFS) This would be useful when practicing Hyd B failure so I dont have to keep going up to the overhead panel and then back to the flap gauge. Can't seem to work out how to do it. Thanks Jon

Sometimes it's the small details in the sim which impress me most. Am currently doing my IR in the real world, and one of the things taught early on is flying on partial panel and in particular being able to fly turns using just the magnetic compass - imagining your HSI/DI has failed. This is harder than it seems, because the magnetic compass is partial to error. Particularly when turning onto northerly or southerly headings. You're therefore taught the acronym 'UNOS' which stands for Undershoot North, Overshoot South. Essentially, if you're turning onto a heading of around North you should aim to roll out about 20deg earlier, as the compass will carry on turnin…

Did a search but couldn't find an answer so hoping someone here may know....As the title says can you use the 2020 version of the Longitude in 2024 ? I'm going to get the standard version of 2024 in a couple of months, as I don't really want / need the other aircraft, but I do enjoy flying the Longitude. Thanks

Is there an easy way to find out what size aircraft can be parked at specific gates/ramps at an airport? In P3D, I just opened up Airport Design Editor to get this information, but I do not have that option in MSFS 2020.

Hi there , all off the sudden i am not able to land this bird very well. I do have a broken left shoulder but i fly as a F/O😀 so not really an issue beside the throttle to idle/reverse etc. I have a HOTAS Warthog and used to do pretty well. I retard at 40 feet and Flare at 30 -20 feet but it feels way to late. (-400 fpm) Any suggestions? Btw the -SL feels very very floating but here i am able to be at -200-300 fpm Thanks Michael Moe

Hawker Fury msfs2024 16:9 single monitor vs. 32:9 double wideview (Nvidia Surround) There are 32:9 monitors in 2K or 4K wideview Or like me two 16:9 side by side using Nvidia Surround from which I took these pictures. So my double wide setup that made the picture above is 1440p = 5184 x 1440. But there are double wide 4K monitors = 7680 x 2160. The monitor below is 4K doublewide by Samsung which is currently on a sale price at Bestbuy chainstores. It will produce a better image than my picture (but you lose framerates). https://www.bestbuy.com/site/samsung-57-odyssey-neo-g9-dual-4k-uhd-quantum-mini-led-240hz-1ms-hd…

In FS2020, my display settings include TAA, Frame Generation, V-SYNC, 100% Monitor Refresh Rate (60Hz), and DX12 Beta. When I try to set up the same settings in FS2024 I can't turn V-SYNC on -- why is that? Thanks, Al

While MSFS2020 loads seamlessly without a hitch, MSFS2024 unfortunately encounters an error, preventing it from moving forward. Any idea?

Can anyone help me with these issues that I am having? The standard "Shift+P" command for pushback does not seem to be working I cannot get the aircraft to load in "ready to taxi" mode at a parking position. I did this with the 737, and it now loads in "ready to taxi" mode every time that I start at a parking location. Unfortunately, the 777F does not seem to "save" this selection when I return to the menu screen (or exit the simulator). Where are custom panel save states stored? I would like to remove the one that I added.

Here's the entire announcement from their Discord: Nav Data Cycle 2502 has been released for all platforms (2020, 2024, and web planner). In addition to this, we have some great updates to the web planner, including the integration of dark mode charts (!) into our charts ingestion pipeline and bringing an option for those into the planner. It was a lot of work updating the pipeline to transform the source charts and apply the dark mode styling to generate the new dark mode charts, and we hope folks enjoy the option. We additionally hope to bring the ability to view these dark mode charts as well to the EFB planner app in SU2. Other great features added since th…

I am not a real life pilot, but if I was, I would never, ever get in this airplane again. I took the default Cessna 208 Grand Caravan for its first flight today in MSFS 2024, and the disappointment is ALMOST as bad as how I felt about how badly they butchered the DA-40 in 2024. Take off roll was OK, but the airplane jumped into the air at 60+ like somebody had stuck a pincushion on its rear end. No worries, its a bush plane, maybe this is realistic (I don't remember the 2020 Caravan doing this, but we'll go with it.) The plane seems to be gaining altitude really fast, lets reduce throttle and trim down a bit and clean up the flaps, this is just a pattern af…

and avoid the need to remove engine covers etc in a walk around? I see there is a utility work around for this but wondered if it's being addressed in this SU. Cheers

I hear about people having issues with the 737 in 2024. I have done a few flights and it has worked well other than a TCAS alert that was erroneous. Has anyone been trying it? The Fenix keeps dying on me from a FPS and was looking for something else.
