Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)

From Chewwy, who works on the MSFS team now:

There's a new freeware Cessna T206 up on flightsim.to for all your "SUV of the skies" needs Is from sal1800 who also did the C170 Backcountry and it looks well worth the download 🙂 https://flightsim.to/file/75081/cessna-t206h

Does anyone know if either Asobo-iniBuilds or Aerosoft updated their Cologne EDDK sceneries to conform with the new, current runway designations? I can't find any information anywhere on the forums about an update to the airport. Lee

It has been suggested to me that there may be a relationship between the improvements (in terms of soothness and stutters) in the sim post SU15 and the version of Windows in use, so this is a very basic poll to ask, in effect, what version of WIndows you're running and if you saw any improvements post SU15. For me, SU 15 has pretty much transformed the sim, and I'm using Win 11.

Greetings. I had some problems with fenix2gsx, when I enter the session I get an error in the log message (below). Does anyone know how to fix this problem, thank you very much Critical exception during ServiceLoop() System.NullReferenceException: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.

My Duke (piston) cockpit views using the numpad no longer function as the original default views. For example, numpad 7 now zooms to the lower panel copilot view as opposed to the default partial zoom, landing view. Somehow, this must be my error and I would like to restore the default views. The turbine version views work flawlessly. I even performed a complete re-install of the piston version but that did not correct the problem. I suppose whatever occurred is stored in the cloud. Is it possible to copy the turbine panel.cfg to the piston or a simple method to restore the original views?

in CPU loading? At Fiorentoni's suggestion some time ago I disabled photogrammetry and with the new CPU I'm not getting stutters, but at cruise flying from Milan to Amsterdam just about like clockwork every ~10 seconds main thread spikes from around 65% (constantly fluctuating) up to 100%, and with it CPU core temp jumps from around 67C to 89C, then right back down again. Of note, I am using a fixed TLOD of 100 and OLOD of 100. Just posting here to see if you can relate to this oddity as I have no explanation for it. At that altitude I'm puzzled why main thread ever jumps up like that. And as I'm coming into EHAM on final and taxi to gate all of that cycling disappea…

Hi everyone, There was quite a great mod on TO adding some controllable panel backwash lighting to some stock planes (TBM and C700 for example). Can someone point to it? Its either me being blind or something else but i just cant find it anymore. And it does not appear in my download history on TO. Any hint appreciated. :D Best regards

As per the title. Was browsing the site randomly and noticed it was available before the e-mail even arrived. 😄

Hi, just wanted to say as a non flight simmer, despite the odd foray into FSX and even Flight sim world (which at the time a quite liked), I've only really dipped in but could see how much enjoyment could be had from the experience. I mainly do sim racing, 4000 odd hours in a game called Assetto corsa, modding cars and tracks etc etc... Then i got MFS, worried a bit about talk of needing a NASA computer i got it anyway, most i'd ever spent on a game on steam, but from the moment i booted it up its been such a joy to behold, many times i've been honestly breathless as i've flown over an area marvelling in how it looks, the places i've found randomly around the gl…

Well, after 4 years, I have finally had my sim done in by a sim update. Came close on a few of the previous updates, but most sim updates went reasonably smoothly for me. Not SU15. It is showing the correct version 1.37.18.0, but does not get past the Dune Expansion screen. The blue loading bar makes its way all the way to the end, but nothing happens after that. Before running the sim I updated the xbox app in the windows library. The initial download after starting the sim completed, but the sim hung up on decompressing some files. After that I renamed the community folder and restarted the sim. No luck. I closed the sim and restarted the PC. N…

Hi, I'm trying to buy something from the marketplace (worked before) but somehow I can't (today?). I have to confirm the transaction in my creditcard app (like I always do), however the small Xbox-payment screen is all blank (no text, no buttons etc), so I can't continue the purchase. Anyone else experienced this?

Hi all - sorry if I missed it (searches on google and here at the site not turning up much), but I'm wondering if there's ways to get sim weather into ForeFlight. I'm wanting to practice some hard IFR scenarios (XC w\ changing wx, specifically for improving FF proficiency with its various features) but without a FIS-B equivalent from the sim the only way I can get close is via live weather and waiting for... weather. (if there's an XP option, I'm open to that as well) Thanks much!

I've tried to fly 3 different GA aircraft into 2 airports that took ILS approaches before SU15, & non of the flights resulted in an ILS landing. Followed standard ILS procedures that used to work. Anyone else having ILS issues? T45

This problem has been ongoing for several months. I am currently using 0.4.2.11 The app works just as it should and modifies TLOD and OLOD as I wish. However, I am not seeing the control/display box where one can change values. I was seeing the box and experimenting with Expert Mode but now - no box of information. I start GPU-Z and then start MSFS_AutoFPS. No sys tray icon appears and no AutoFPS display appears but Task Manager shows AutoFPS running. The AutoFPS log shows everything working correctly.: 2024-05-07 16:21:49.684 [INF] [ App:InitLog ] MSFS2020_AutoFPS v0.4.2 started! Log Level: Debug Log File: ..\log\MSFS2020_AutoFP…

I'm currently on approach to EGLL and this is what I see... https://imgur.com/kzv8MRV The scenery just isn't loading in properly and makes London look like it's been hit by a nuclear bomb. I know it's a high density area, but my FPS are good so it's not even as though my machine is struggling, it just doesn't load it in. By the time I get down to about 1,000ft everything has loaded. But this looks truly appalling...much worse than it ever did in P3D even! Can anyone help?

Hello all, It has been some six months since I have been here, mostly due to the fact that my wife has been diagnosed with breast cancer and had a mastectomy (left breast removed) and has been undergoing Chemo and Radiology which has been a bit of a struggle for both of us. I have however, finally been able to find time to have a fly. I loaded up my flightsim and found I had, not surprisingly, a mandatory update. I stopped that and renamed my Community and Official folders and then proceeded with the update. 24 hours later, everything is installed, content manager checked and adjusted/installs completed and the Community/Official folders renamed back to or…

Was wondering how to delete Asobo KSFO version from sim. I installed the recent BMWorld & AmSim version. When searching for KSFO in Content manager all I see is the new BMworld version and MSFS premium bundle but not the individual Asobo KSFO.

Does anyone know the grand total size for this version if every module, region, and updates are installed? Thank you.

I'd like to bring my issue to the attention of the people at https://forums.flightsimulator.com/, but I don't see a way to create a topic once logged in. Is anyone able to tell me how to do that?

Just took a flight from MUCL to MKJS and there's no ground aircraft or aircraft at the gates. so I just seen a airliner land but then disappear.

Since two days ago, every time I start the sim I'm given the option to start in Safe mode. I simply select Normal and everything runs perfectly with no error messages showing on startup or shutdown. Anyone have any idea why the Safe mode option is being presented at every startup?
