hey all, curious if anyone can give me a hand here. Having a strange issue flying into airports where huge white blocks of missing ground textures show up, almost like its having trouble loading them..but then they finally load and i think all is well, but, then they disappear again..like it "unloaded" the texture if that makes any sense?? happened today flying into Dallas, but its not just that airport. the other day flying an airbus into Memphis it did the same thing. Ive been noticing it more pronounced lately, never had this problem before, and heres the kicker....Im in OFFLINE mode with photogrammetry turned off (super slow internet right now, only used for online we…

Anyone else have trouble inhibiting the warnings? I was flying traffic patterns yesterday, GPWS inhibit was pressed, but the plane still kept yelling "don't sink" over and over again all the way around the pattern.

Hi Over the past few months I have had an issue with MSFS repeatedly CTD without any error messages. It seems to be getting closer and closer to the start of the flight. It started after about 3hrs flight, then 1hr, then it just crashed when loading. Is there any way of finding a crash log in the hope to work out what's going on. I have simstaller and the only overrides are from microsoft products themselves, the DC3, aiport EGAO and airport LFNC Thanks in advance Mark

I managed to get the FSLTL fleet & injector working smoothly. I even managed to get the GMOD for GA working in offline mode with the FSLTL injector & Fleet. The issue that I have is that sometimes when I arrive at the destination airport, airliners are not spaced properly on final or they are landing on the opposite runway. Can someone familiar with the two mods help me set up the config so that I can test various airports? I just need some settings for both of the APs. I would opt for FSHUD, but I'm still debating about the sound of the voices. I'd prefer to wait until BATC released the AI traffic update. Thanks. Jose

Hello, I'm wondering if anyone here has used the FSS 727F in DX12? There's some comments over in the official forum about it only being DX11 compatible and having texture issues in the cockpit in DX12. I was about to buy this but want to be sure I'll be able to fly it in DX12 before doing so, would appreciate any input... Dave

Greetings all! I was wondering if anyone else is having issues with the A/P with this aircraft. I've watched numerous videos/tutorials for this aircraft. I can't for the life of me, get the autopilot to stay engaged after takeoff. I press it once on the runway to activate the auto throttles. When I press the button the 2nd time to try to engage it around 1000' AGL. It will engage for a moment and then disengage with "Betty" yelling "Autopilot!". Just wondering if anyone has any tips/tricks they use when engaging it.

For the rotor heads and for those that can appreciate the latest and greatest in aircraft tech, it appears that HPG just announced development (and looking pretty far along) of the Airbus H160. Can definitely see the AS365 and EC155 origins. https://www.helisimmer.com/news/hype-performance-group-announce-h-160-msfs

I bought the plane and then just didn't fly it for a long time. But, as I suspected, the bug for a change of pace bit, and I finally have been trying to fly a King Air. I have the TDS 750 in it as well. There are some nits that really bug me, things like the mouse switch control, at times it won't give me an up arrow when i want for instance, but I can deal with those. The main reason for this post though, is that whatever altitude I set the thing at, it refuses to capture it 😞 Instead it always stays just 100 feet shy, lol. So I set 24000 and it stupidly goes to 23900 and stays there. I've seen the same thing on descent, I used VNAV to descend to an ILS entry at 4000 and…

Hello Gang. Has anybody noticed that the Fenix A320 sounds are super faint? Can barely hear the engines on both, the IAE and CFM variants. I've set my sound setting as per their recommendations to no avail. Any ideas? I've reported it to Fenix. Thanks

I'm sure I'm not the only one who has seen this so apologies if a post has already been raised for this. Wow. I have been waiting so long for this and know that FS Reborn and SWS are jointly working on a -200 and a -100. However it seems unlikely they will make it for this simulator but rather for FS 2024. So, FSS have pulled a rabbit out of the hat and dropped what looks like a fairly good rendition of the this classic and iconic aircraft. British Avgeek discovered a bug in the auto pilot on decent which forced him to revert to a hand fly a visual approach into a high altitude runway. It seems he really appreciated the old school approach. I just had…

I was looking at renders of the Norse Livery reveal from August 2021... and it looks a lot like MSFS2020, look at the clouds. Though there was no 787-9 model for MSFS yet in 2021, so it might have been photoshopped on top of MSFS screenshots, or they made their own model for the sim. https://simpleflying.com/norse-atlantic-787-livery/ https://mentourpilot.com/norse-atlantic-livery-revealed-brand-launched/ More images here: https://imgur.com/a/Ug4FsJx That clearly looks like the Asobo EGLL, you can even see one of their generic Jetway models And what looks like Asobo's Pilot models

Hi - I haven't recently flown the B787 but just tried a short flight from EGCC to EGLL and found that It will not follow the LNAV path. Have also tried HDG Select mode which also refuses to work. Is this maybe since the last update? I also have the Heavy Mod installed ! Thanks for any comments, Baz

Hi everyone. I heard that there were new versions of the above software available. The instructions said to completely uninstall the old files and download and unzip the new files. Well, I did that. However, clicking either .exe file causes a momentary hourglass followed by nothing. Nothing ever opens. I have not used the programs in quite a while so I am wondering if something changed. I thought first MSFS had to be up first. So I brought it up but same thing. Then I thought maybe I have to have a traffixc simulator running so I brought up FSTL and got traffic going. But still nothing from AIFLOW and AIGROUND. Any ideas. I have done all kinds of Windows ch…

I don't know if we are not supposed to submit way in advance but to wait until close to Aug 15. There are a few rules, limit of 3, etc. https://forms.microsoft.com/pages/responsepage.aspx?id=v4j5cvGGr0GRqy180BHbR1r3nNQ_40JBjVeCHjmDms9UMFdKSEhBUkk3RUtSNUdPTUZQWTVBUzI4Ni4u

Curious as I want to start flying the PMDG 777-300ER, but there's no way for me to pushback and steer the plane to face north/west/east/whatever ATC asks for, as I don't have GSX, the default pushback doesn't offer left or right steering, and the PMDG was grayed out when I used it. Not a big deal for smaller aircraft, but when you're in a 242' plane crammed into a crowded terminal, having functional pushback to maneuver your plane out of parking and comply with the controller's instructions becomes quite important. Did PMDG ever add pushback to the 77W? I've been flying the Fenix A320 and Headwinds A330, but would love to start flying the 77W. Also, not intere…
