I have installed the add-on "Aerosoft tool simple traffic" for ai traffic in FS 2020 simulator. Ai traffic works fine at airports and in the air. However, I can't get ai planes to appear on the cockpit screen of FBW's Airbus 32 nx. The white text "TFC" does not appear at the bottom of the ND screen?

I have the BS Caravan pro and I continue to get at startup 0 engine condition. I repair it through the EFB and no help. The engine ITT pegs out at red flag and stays pegged. And the throttle response is none, no movement of the torque gauge. I've tried everything from reinstalling to checking all bindings in the controller section of msfs2020. I have the analog caravan and everything works great. So far disappointed with the pro. because of the amount of time trying to figure this out. I'm hoping to avoid a reinstall of my msfs2020 platform for this singular problem.

I'm stuck in a cycle...when I start AIG Manager I get a dialog box that tells me it will be automatically updated. Click ok, I get a windows system box appear, it seems to do something but then I'm back to the AIG menu telling me to update, again. I've been through this four or five times

Recently upgraded to 2024 from 2020 with the help of the community here; had some experiences on the weekend I wanted to share, get some feedback. Enjoying the upgrade so far, a mix of free flights and up to level 16 in career mode, there's certainly more to do without jumping right to 3rd party mods and add-ons. Quirks - I did encounter the ATC Taxi bug on the PPL mission, so that was a fun wasted hour of trying things before googling the issue and learning that this has been like that since the start. Pretty crazy that so many people have a bug on the very first mission (I guess second technically) and remains unresolved years later. No wonder the career mode gets…

I was wondering whether there were any hints what might be next for Ini in terms of airports? I could imagine them taking on Madrid and Chicago O'Hare, which are the two major airports I'm missing the most in MSFS 2024.

Man this is tempting but this company puts out consistant word not allowed...😖🫤 simMarket: CESSNA CITATION LATITUDE MSFS20/24 Almost pushed the button but stopped until a few reviews are out there. I hope this somewhat better than what they've released before but that's the tall ask.

Hi guys I'm struggling a bit here I cant figure out how to config my Warthog so I get a nice 3 stage burner. I get 0-100% dry but no matter what I do I cant get the last bit of travel on the throttles to engage reheat.

Hello sim friends, I have been pecking away at more small SF Bay Area GA airports and these two are getting close to being ready. Some of you familiar with the Monterey or San Jose area have definitely been to these airports before, or have at least driven by. Hollister (KCVH) San Martin (E16) - collaboration with Goneflyin'

This is a very interesting article. It's always been a concern with MSFS being so server dependant and if Ubisoft and Asobo/MS are of the same mindset then no, we don't own MSFS. This is more concerning with MSFS due to add-ons though. The sunk investment you can potentially lose can be $thousands for some of us if the servers go away one day... https://www.polygon.com/gaming/555469/ubisoft-holds-firm-in-the-crew-lawsuit-you-dont-own-your-video-games

I just got fshud and first flight having a problem. Set up a short hop from KJQF to KHKY. I generated flight in simbrief and imported. I then started fshud and imported from simbrief and got the mess in picture. Am I doing something wrong ? Do I need to manually edit something ? Thanks for any help

Picking up 2024 before the current sale ends, but now I'm asking the lads what edition do you have and if the extra planes are worth the extra dough? Any standouts? Disappointments?

Coming back to FS20 after a 4 month break. Doing all the updates and tidying up. After updating I noticed I can no longer enter Windowed Mode. ALT + ENTER now simply minimizes the sim. I tried selecting Windowed from the menu but that does not work either. Is anyone else seeing this? Did they remove it? If not then something strange is going on with my system. ALT + ENTER works for my other games. Thanks for any advice

I've currently got MSFS 2024 (SU4) installed and it is like the "land of the not quite right." Sometimes the parking locations are slightly off so jetways don't necessarily align with a door. The pushback tug always wants to automatically turn the aircraft tail to the left even if it would make sense to go to the right. Oftentimes I have to restart from the main menu because navdata isn't fully there. Likewise, I've had to restart because there was no engine cover available to actually remove on the stock A320 so it was installed but not shown as such so it was not able to be removed. Had anyone else run in to similar issues? Is this likely just an artifact of i…

Is it me of the Wake turbulence is fancy in term of visual rendering but not realistic and "little to no effect". See (and vote?) this "bug logged" one year ago, in SU2, in March 2025 : https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/wake-turbulence-has-little-to-no-effect/713435 In SU5 Beta 1.7.22.0 , we have new cool colors… but still “little to no effect”. Worst : the wake seems to be stronger after the touchdown ;( : I’m still suspicious of the visual rendering. It’s nice looking but, wake turbulence don’t change or decrease at all after the touch down of the AI plane. Same when a AI plane is taking off. No radical change after/before rotation. As a PPL, I’ve lea…

can someone help me change the jetway connection from L2 back to L1.. I have tried everything humanly possible but unable to do it.. I know it is realistic to connect to L2 but msfs jetways are so broken most of them can't stretch that far and they break apart with a gaping hole.. Ideally we should have dual jetways for widebodies.. Until then I prefer L1 even if it's a 380.. I downloaded gsx profiles, played around with gsx aircraft profile, and all sorts of things.. I saw one of the A330driver videos where he had the jetway to L1.. Also saw some flightsim.to profile that had L1 active.. But that same profile didn't work on machine.. Perhaps outdated..

Hi All! I bought a new PC (9800x3d RTX 5090) and on the ground at busy airports like LAX, it's like watching a Charlie Chaplin movie. I've dialled down airport services and airport traffic. Once I'm in the air it's as smooth as silk. What are the key settings that impact smoothness when I'm on the ground? Cheers!

This works with the 2020 Reno P51 or the native 2024 default P-51. This mod received a significant update recently, with a from-scratch flight model. And a lot more... I really enjoy flying it now (2024). It's got the required gentle rudder pedal dance on takeoff but is very controllable and agile, and the landing behavior is VASTLY improved. There's also a version with the WT GNS430W for increased situational awareness. Please check out the details here (I have no affiliation with this project but I just enjoy the P-51) https://flightsim.to/addon/87154/asobo-reno-p-51d-improvement-mod (I know pictures don't show flight models very well but....…

Hey All, I am setting up the A346 for CPDLC (V 1.02 of the aircraft). All connections seem fine. I logon to the ATC station. I get my pre-departure clearance. However, it only goes to text in the MCDU. The DCDU panel doesn't get updated at all. It just constantly displays which ATC I am logged on to. I have tried many things, but there is no way I can get ATC messages to the DCDU - Again, they all appear fine in the received msgs area of the ATSU on the MCDU. My departure clearance pops up just fine in the MCDU, but the DCDU remains blank, apart from displaying the station (EGCC) that I am logged onto. I double checked all was working well at the Sayintenti…

Well, I did the dirty deed at the weekend and Installed Win 11 and MSFS 2024. So for the past three days I've spent reinstalling dozens of apps and addons, still loads more to install! As I literally, wanted a full, clean install. Yesterday I started a quick flight in the PMDG 738, all with default scenery, from Rio De Janeiro. To say I was aghast and disappointed would be an understatement. Yes, the UI has improved in some areas, things seem to be more logically set out, it seems very much smoother, but, what's all this about... when I jump from an external view back into the cockpit, everything is blurry for a second while it loads! Darn awful, ridiculous. But the big i…

Pardon me but I remain so impressed by 2024 and had to share this. Not a hint of a stutter anywhere for this 2h+ flight from departure involving taxi/TO in the Fenix 320 at LIPZ to EGLL involving landing and taxi to the gate w/ ample FSLTL traffic, just pure perfection! As I've always maintained when you have flawless frame time variance this correlates very well with subjective perception of super smooth animation. This was from the landing at EGLL. Yes, it's a modest 60FPS-fg but no significant rate-related visual aberration that can happen in certain types of lighting and textures in which case I will bump the native rate up to 45/90FPS-fg.
