Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)

I usually don't worry about it, but does anyone here ever get the ground textures bleeding through the taxiways, aprons, etc.? It seems to happen more often in DX12 and maybe DLSS, but it seems pretty prevalent. Anyway, it seems to fix itself if you debug the airport in Developer Mode, but I'm wondering if anyone has found another way to correct the issue? I hate having to go into developer mode just to fix this issue when it appears. Is there a key binding to toggle that debug feature? Thank you.

Hey guys, A while back I did ask about best GA airplanes and this is what I have for now 1) FSReborn Sting S4 (I love this airplane in VR - the open cockpit view is just stunning) 2) Justflight Black Square Steam Guage (Baron and Bonanza Bundle) 3) SWS Kodiak package (got it for 50% off on OrbxDirect) What else is out there which is excellent in terms of realism. I know A2A is about to launch and FSReborn M500 is coming (1st day release buy for me) Thoughts and comments appreciated

In the PMDG 738 noticing a major increase in main thread loading. I haven't seen this for ages now, at KPHX with a frame lock at 33 MT during taxi is hitting 92+% whereas previous 70-73% or so, and the CPU is running signifcantly hotter as well in line with this. Anyone else?

I installed the AAU update this morning and have had no sound whatsoever on MSFS since then. Sound is fine with everything else on my PC. So I've gone into the sound settings within MSFS and selected both speakers and default device (which is also speakers) but with either settings there is no sound in msfs at all. No music during loading, no engines at startup, nothing. All my MSFS volume levels are as they were before the update. I've emptied my community folder and performed several restarts but still no sound in msfs. Sound is not muted on my PC and there is no mute option in msfs to worry about. Any idea what could be wrong?

Hi folks, I am running opentrack and wondered how I stop my view from going outside the cockpit? I'm finding when I look around sometimes, the view ends of being half in the cockpit, half out, even when the cockpit hood is closed, so not entirely realistic! Is there a setting I need to change?

I just purchased the ATR and was wondering if there is away to load the MSFS 2020 flight plan to the FMS from the Nav Log or from a saved flight plan file I vaguely remember the Flight 1 ATR FMS had a load option. Thank you!

JUNE 22ND, 2023 DEVELOPMENT UPDATE Posted by: Microsoft Flight Simulator Team This week’s Screenshot Challenge winner is Twitter user CpuGeta486.

Just had to do a 1.7 TB update ? its still downloading please delete . nonsense lol

For me, the new problems I've encountered so far are: 1) On the b-747 & b-787, the auto V1 calls are gone. You now have to program them in the FMS if you want to hear them. 2) On all the jets with Auto Throttle Arming, the assignment has changed from "Set Auto Spoilers Arming" to "Toggle Arm Spoilers". But the problem is that on the B-747 & B-787, they are not working correctly, there's an annoying constant clicking as you roll down the runway. The A-320 is ok, it works fine after changing the assignment. 3) The B-787, is now very twitchy(sensitive) on the rudder. Before it was not. 4) The B-747 still has it' s GPWS 2500 Ft callout broken. Still calls it way off t…

KSLC is much needed and is finally being done almost 3 years after launch. This looks fantastic! https://www.facebook.com/islandsim

Hi all, I am looking for a paintkit for the MSFS Kodiak 100 from SWS, but have not been able to find anything yet. Maybe I am blind. Does anyone know, where to download the paintkit, if there is one?

Looks as if Asobo forgot again to include the update for PC users of the iniBuilds A310. If you’ll recall, when it was last updated by them, Asobo included it in the last sim update but only for Xbox, they forgot to do the PC. iniBuilds was again under the impression from Asobo that it would be in AAU2 release for PC users. And they again forgot and it’s not included. Let this be a lesson for those 3rd party developers that rely on Asobo to update your work on your product, it is an epic failure at times and this is one of those times. What an absolute joke.

for two weeks over, everyone is talking about white borders and etc... and what about Asobo? Nothing. ... releases the official version without fixing this problem..... check it out ... first, and second topic ... https://forums.flightsimulator.com/c/aau02/aau2-discussion/393 btw for for are beta program???? brds

Update completed fine. Loading up the 787 FMC (which now takes FOREVER because we can't import flight plans). Selected EGLL STAR GASGU2J and the sim just froze and then crashed to the desktop. Disaster

Hello, Could someone share a link to download the textures of the addon « Mike’s 737 cockpit mod » which is no longer available on flightsim.to? Thanks!

I ('cos I can be lazy) allow the crj900 get itself ready to taxi. I generate a flight plan in simbrief, load the flpln into the fms, chech it for discontinuities, set th AP to navigate, turn on vs mode and set to VS 1800 fpm. Set alt to 23000 ft. And take off. I get to about 5000 ft in a straight out pattern (SBND has no departure procedures) and press the AP button and I'm denied. It won't engage. I'm not a very experienced sim pilot. And I'm new to comercial jets. I'm accustomed to Garmin style autopilot. I'm sure it's my fault, I'm not doing something in the proper sequence, or there's something I need to turn on and or configure before trying to engage the AP. Ca…

Hello everyone, I have a problem with loading mods on MFS (Gamepass version), normally do everything according the instructions, insert folder with plane to Community folder in %appdata%- Local-Packages-Microsoft.Flightsimulator_8weky...-LocalCache-Packages-Community, but in the game plane wont't load. I tried more planes but none will load. Is there something I'm doing wrong or where could be a mistake?

Lately I've been seeing some rather erratic wind shifts during my approaches at around 2000 feet when using real world weather. Just tried to fly an ILS into Olbia in the PMDG 737. I ended up abandoning the flight as the constant changes in wind speed and direction made the approach impossible and the aircraft uncontrollable. I had this problem a while ago at high altitude but it seems to be happening at low altitude now. Anyone else noticing this?

I have the sim running pretty good but for some reason I just can't get that stutter free experience. The only way to get it really smooth is to use VSYNC in my NCP and limit the frames to my monitor refresh rate. The problem is I get stutters when it briefly drops a couple of FPS below the rate which is expected. The weird thing is if I run it in the same scenario with no limit I'm looking at something ridiculous like 150 FPS so I shouldn't be having that dip. The PMDG doesn't do it as often as the FBW 320 does but neither should be having performance issues when I'm getting well over double the FPS when it's not locked. Changing the settings like TLOD doesn't seem …

Anyone noticed frequent squares of FSX type default imagery - I’m seeing it in France and Italy at the moment. I’m on AAU2 beta and have the French cities update. Changed from N Europe back to W Europe server and deleted NVIDIA image caches. Never noticed this before from 35000 ft. Anyones suggestions welcome. thanks

Our friend David Mills mentioned this seemed to help him with an issue. Now and again I'll have ample CPU main thread/GPU headroom, major headroom, yet have a stutter-fest typically upon arrival but sometimes over nothing burger scenery. At that point I attribute the unpredicted degradation to server overload because bandwidth for my connection is typically around 400mbps. If you started using a VPN have you noticed a SIGNIFICANT impact on the issue I described, these unpredicted major degradations in animation despite ample main thread and GPU headroom? I read Xfinity will throttle down bandwidth so this is also why I'm looking at this. I think able cable internet p…

The time has come for those who know how to wait.) Sale until 30 June !

Well since 2024 was announced last week with the trailer, are u still buying stuff for 2020? For me, I will not be buying anything until 2024 is coming out. Just curious what everybody else is doing
