and, just like in FS 2020, actually give you clearance for your declared route? I have used both the EFB with an imported route that I had created in Simbrief, or creating the route from scratch in the EFB itself, I've declared the departure and destination airports the in Free Flight World Menu, although contrarily to FS 2020 I couldn't find a way to create my route through there, choosing a SID, creating waypoints along the route and then a STAR and an APP... When I try a flight in the Inibuilds A321 LR, when I contact Clearance the only options are departure direction / type options - nothing related to my flightplan, and yes in the EFB I did send the flight…

In my case, RTSS prevents MSFS 2024 from loading which always ends up with CTD. Same goes with Lossless Scaling. After loading is complete, it is safe turn both apps on.

In both 2020 and 2024 - I Can start a flight and use all the mouse, keyboard, yoke, quadrant, pedal inputs with no problem as long as I am not in the cockpit. In the cockpit and I can change Nav frequency, set heading, set altitude target. I can use the mouse or hat switch to change the view either inside or outside. But - if I try to do "other" things in the cockpit view - the sim crashes the PC to a black screen and immediate restart. The crash is so hard and fast that nothing is entered into the event log. All this started immediately AFTER I experienced the 2020 Lost Connection and need to download -/165GB foo-fah this afternoon. I clicked on continue a…

I've been enjoying flying around in MSFS2024 in the Grand Duke and visiting my addon airports but Asobo has taken away some of my more need airport addons until Dec 9th (which is fine) and it will still be awhile before the last few needed addons (Air Manager, Pop Out Manager and TDS GTN) are available as so I can really set up my system like how I have it in 2020. So, I decided since all the great freeware airport addons from Vincent Bazillio as well as a few others that I have that are not from the Marketplace are available, I will entertain myself in the default C152 doing short hops in So-Cal and go old school with VFR navigation since they are all so close. I h…

The amount of glitches, bugs, incompleteness and bogus scoring is astounding. How do you tolerate it? Stockholm syndrome is the gaming norm now or what?

Hello, do you know of a way to create a shortcut for Simbrief App on Desktop? I believe it is some kind of Browser-App which loads in Edge here, but in fact appears as a full screen app. The reasoning behind it is that I have all my FS shortcuts on the secondary screen, and after starting FS, I am starting other apps from there.

This was my first test flight. Only one error found so far in the snow covered mountain tiles. Using latest Bing maps to replace the aging Asobe default ones in sim. All images are direct screen shots from the sim, no post effects/edits at all and zero filters in sim too. All default sim colouring. Will post more links of further tests if I am impressed enough. https://imgur.com/gallery/seqm-skgb-sierrasim-using-msfs-map-enhancement-mod-AUzv1Oe

Somebody posted real life photos and compared them with MSFS 2024 locations. See for yourself how well MSFS 2024 resembled the real life locations: https://old.reddit.com/r/MicrosoftFlightSim/comments/1h3igen/places_ive_been_over_the_years_revisited_in/

Hi all So far my msfs 2024 looks worse than 2020, I need to do more investigation. In particular YBAF looks terrible with odd colours and the photogrammetry around the airport, Brisbane and the gold coast is not as sharp as 2020 There are also clumps of brown that I assume are meant to be trees but something is just not right. I have increased the cache to 100 gigs and defaulted the settings,I'll keep investigating but my first impression is underwhelming. Maybe just an issue at my end hopefully. I'm on 1000mb fibre connection. I need to look around a few cities in Australia to compare more. Any chance someone could Do a drone shot showing YBAF so …

Ive got a 9800x3d along with a 4080 super. All settings on Ultra, and I have horrible, blurry, ugly textures. Download speeds are good. Using the latest nvdia driver. Tested ultra, high, med and low. Makes no difference. What may I be missing? On the positive side, runs fantastic. Smooth and no stutters. But man, 2020 far superior in the looks department on my computer. At a loss. Any suggestions? Thanks

Somehow or other I've managed to lose full travel on my TM Warthog throttle. I get full throttle, but can't get back to full idle - it jumps (and stays) at around 30%. None of the below have fixed it. 1) Checked Windows hardware settings. I'm seeing full/normal travel there. 2) Unplugged/reinserted the USB cable for the throttle - with and without restarting/rebooting. 3) Deleted the throttle axis assignments then re-added them. 4) Tried setting up various sensitivity/deadzone settings. Is there any way to force an axis reset and/or recalibration? Back in the old/pre-cloud days, I think there was a config file you could fiddle with. Is that p…

I just saw this stream recording from Into the Blue, who I believe is a real life Airbus pilot. He originally made a very negative review of the iniBuilds A321 for MSFS 2024. But iniBuilds saw his stream and saw that he had made his assessment off of unrealistic configurations for his first use of the A321, so they reached out to him to help him fix the problem. Anyways, Into the Blue did a second review of the iniBuilds A321 again with the recommended changes from iniBuilds, and upon his second flight in the A321, he had a much better experience: I think this goes to show that some of our experiences based on MSFS 2024 depends on whether we can con…

Trying to find out how to uninstall MSFS2024. I'm so mixed up that I really need to start from scratch. Also, not 100% sure that it installed correctly. Can't seem to find an uninstall option. Any help would be appreciated.

To try and get a more balanced view of what's happening for those with the new sim, I'd be interested to hear in this thread only from those who have got it installed and loaded fine. To the point where you are actually flying and enjoying it. Not interested in major bugs, it's too early, as this is not meant to be a negative thread. If you can fly fine and want to mention minor bugs that's OK, as long as you're flying and having fun that's fine. We have enough game breaking issues in other threads. Would love to hear about your choices of planes, flight routes and starting locations. Has anyone started career yet? If you're too busy having fun the…

There are so many different items in Global Rendering Quality menu. I want to have two sets at least - VFR and IFR. Because change a lot of settings almost each time it's a real pita. I can't find other way than save copies of UserCfg.opt file with necessary sets under different names and change the name back to UserCfg.opt before MSFS 2024 starts. Is there a more elegant way?

Is anyone else having the issue that saving custom camera views are not saving? I scroll to the position that I want for view 0, hit CTRL ALT 0, then switch views. When I hit the view botton associated with view 0, it doesn't go to where i positioned the camera. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong?

Hi everyone, Have a small issue with the cabin announcements on both the s/l and wing fence models. They have gone missing. Have the relevant Fenix app in the sound mixer up to full volume, and the folders are present for the various airlines. All relevant switches are open and set to full volume on the radio pedestal. All folders are marked correctly to the A/C config file. I noticed this after downloading the S/L update. Anyone else have this issue. Thank you Regards
