I know there have been many folks looking to make the Boris sounds for the PMDG 737 work in MSFS 2024. Below is a video I created to help some others get them working. The sounds from Echo19 are solid sounds that greatly enhance what PMDG has historically used, but I still prefer Boris sounds. Hope this helps!

Well, you can have them back more or less faithfully. I made something in LUA that enables you to have them all back, but i am not prepared to give any support for this. Use it if you know how to. You will need to extract the original PMDG MD-11 sound files (i cannot provide them obviously) from an original installation. Place them in a folder in your main FSUIPC directory called "TFDiMD11_Callouts". The sounds will need to be renamed (i wanted to do so for my personal use) according to the callouts in the LUA script below. It's pretty straightforward. IF you want to keep the original filenames, rename them in the script instead. If you want to use t…

Hi folks. I have both GAIST and SEAFRONT VESSELS installed on my MSFS 2024 system. In the sim I have ship traffic set to Medium. When I am flying around I am not seeing very many ships. I am testing around the Florida eastern coast. Can I get any advice as to how to get the most ships to appear in the sim using either one or both of this addons. It seems to me I should be getting more ships than I am actually seeing. Thanks.

Do you know when you have a period in this hobby, where everything goes wrong? Not that it seems to go wrong - everything does actually go wrong. So, I have just bought the TFDi MD-11, and I am absolutely unable to install it, using the "TFDI MD-11 Install Manager". When I run the installer, my whole PC gets absolutely frozen - nothing works and no other tasks can be undertaken. Then, after 15 minutes of it just hanging, I get this:- What on Earth???? I have a completely standard Win 11 PC, with a strong internet connection... I just don't understand why an installer would fail like this. To make it worse, it takes 15 minutes each attemp…

I purchased the MSFS 2024 Premium Deluxe edition ($129), and from what I read it would include a Cessna 172 Skyhawk with analog gauges. Yet I cannot find it? Only the G1000 version?

The DC-8 is hands-down one of my all-time favorite jets — sleek lines, double bubble and that that classic quad-engine figure, America's second ever jetliner and 707 rival. Not forgetting its nose scoops that give it that face! The Super 73 series especially (stretched Super 63 with CFM56 upgrades) was/is such an ambitious beast, basically doubling capacity. I've spent way too many sleepless nights wishing for a proper study-level version in MSFS 2024. Options are super limited right now: mostly the HJG FSX port on Flightsim.to (which is fun but basic), or older P3D versions. Thanks to a generous friend, I've been lucky enough to fly a fully modeled one in…

Hi all For me at least, since sim update 16 I have been getting CTD whenever I fly over or from the top of New Zealand's south Island. A bunch of kind forum members tried to help me out with suggestions. I thank all of you However I believe I have narrowed this down to the points of interest in world update XII New Zealand. If I uninstall the points of interest I can load into a flight at NZNS however if I reinstall the points of interest I again get the CTD when loading a flight at the top of NZ south Island. This is the same with or without a completely empty community folder. I have contacted MSFS support, they have tried to help but they feel as I a…

Just wondering if anyone has got the Winctrl throttle to work with the MD-11 in 2024? I have the throttles configured to Axis 1/2 for the left Ursa throttle and Axis 3 on the right within MSFS control settings. However, I cannot calibrate them to be synchronised in the sim, and if I pull the Ursa throttles to the Idle detent, the sim reversers activate. I have tried it with/without SimAppPro with no luck. Any help appreciated.

I normally fly MS2024. I still have MS2020 on my computer and decided to get into it and do some comparsions, but I can't access it. During start up an XBOX box pops up saying "Lets get you signed in". I hit the sign in button which then gives me several options - "Email or phone number" - "forgot your user name?". etc. Problem is nothing I click on works. Can't select any thing to get in the program. Any advice would be appriciated. Jim

I was about to pull the trigger on the TFDi, then found there are no AAO scripts available for it? 😔 PS... in case you try searching Google, the 2 Streamdeck profiles on FS.TO don't have an AAO script included with them. @guenseli - This one not take your fancy? 😄 Can any helpful owner of the TFDi MD-11 please advise whether any of these standard MSFS key commands work:- - Heading bug inc and dec - Heading select mode - Nav mode - Altitude preselector inc and dec (I know it's a heavily custom autopilot, hence asking 👍) Thanks in advance

I have had to reinstall MSFS 2020. I cannot see the FBW A320 in the aircraft selection page. I have deleted it from the community folder and reinstalled it via the installer. It still does not appear. Thanks for your help in anticipation. <I have just discovered that the community folder has moved to a different location. All is back to normal.>

I've used the Marketplace in FS20, but this is my first attempt in MSFS2024. I'm trying to buy Flight Replicas' newly released DH Rapide. After clicking on 'Buy' I get the spinning white circle 'Please Wait' and nothing else. I then have to use Task Manager to exit MSFS2024. I have the Steam version of the sim, and I have Steam Overlay enabled. Anyone having similar problems, or able to help me, please ?

lgcharlot has posted in the tips subforum how to make a beacon file which you put into community forum. And now you can dial it in on the radio while flying. Such as to your own house. Or other point of interest.

I'm having an issue with Flow and Chase Plane freezing when they run together in 2024. I can load up Chasplane without Flow, no issue, it works fantastic. When I load Flow on top of Chase Plane and start a flight on the runway, the Flow menu will pop up on the right side of the screen as it normally does, but then everything freezes. The shortcut for Flow does not work, so I can't get to Chase Plane at all. Has anybody else experienced anything similar to this?

Hi all, I have posted on this topic some time ago, but could not find the thread in a recent search. The issue I am facing is this. I use the Thrustmaster Hotas Warthog throttle and joystick. When I spawn any of the Fenix airbuses onto a runway, the digital displays come online, and then after about a minute an orange 'speed brake' sign appears on the upper ecam, and I cannot clear it. When I look at the wings, the speedbrakes are not deployed, and that is confirmed by looking at the facilities on the lower ecam. The speedbrake arm is in the off position, and if I engage it (or the axis that I also have for the speedbrakes) they work as one would expect. If…

I have been inactive for the last few years due to my wife's health problems. Some of you may remember me for mods I made primarily for Carenado products. As they say, life is what happens to you when you were planning for something else. Anyway..... Before I start, I want to do a brief credibility check. I have been flying for 51 years. Civilian, corporate, and US Navy Strike Fighters. I am a US Navy trained test pilot. I don't tell you any of that to impress, only to suggest that I may know what I'm talking about occasionally. Since LM basically abandoned us and everybody else not willing to spend taxpayer money with the introduction of P3Dv6, I dec…

Nine hours into a EGLL - VRMM flight, I was programming my destination alternate into RTE 2 and I get a WASM crash... https://ibb.co/m5tR8SST Have been running the 777 with SU4 in MSFS2024 since it came out. I had one crash when SU4 first came out (on loading the aircraft), cleared the WASM cache and all was fine. I've never had a WASM crash during a flight before. I've posted this in the PMDG forum, but thought there may be a breadth of knowledge here that could help. Any idea what could have caused this? Thanks
