    I can't use MSFS...the sim will load and the Content Manager is active...but that's about it...whenever I load up a plane to go somewhere, the sim freezes...my Addon Linker is totally devoid of addons...I've disconnected everything...still the problem persists... Thanks, John Helms

  3. I’ve searched this site and Youtube and must be missing it - can one generate a flight plan inside of MSFS itself and load it into the ATR FMS? If so, how? I’m missing the manual or tutorial for this or can’t find them. Thanks, Steve

  6. Hi all! I just don't understand it. My Honeycomb-Alpha-Yoke doesn't work at all with ATR. Assigning the axis like in any other plane. MSFS is showing me that everything is working fine. It works perfect on every other plane. But not on the ATR. So basically I can't fly the ATR because of this. I read that some buttons on the Honeycomb-Bravo do not work. I have both, not using the buttons. But: The throttle-axis on the Beta are all fine - even the reverse-functionality. But the Alpha-Flight-Controls are dead. Any hints anybody? Greets Burkhardt

  10. With every new update to the FSLTL Base Package there are more and more fake airline textures (virtual airlines and fictional airlines) that most of us don't need but are forced to download and install. In my opinion, they should add this in separate package, but since they don't can anyone suggest a quick way of removing them all so the sim loads faster and with better performance? Or do i have to go through their livery list in the site and delete them one by one, which will be tiresome? Thanks.

  11. Hi all, I have a Thrustmaster HOTAS Warthog throttle with the left axis mapped to propeller control. If I move the lever, the condition lever moves out of cutoff to feather (which does not allow the prop brake to be applied). Once out of cutoff, I am unable to move the condition lever back even with the mouse - it starts to move, but just moves back to feather. Does anyone else have this issue?

  12. On the SR 22 is anyone having an issue with the side yoke trim settings not displaying at all. So pretty much I can't tell how much trim I have because the side yoke does not move at all to reflect elevator and rudder trim. I can only tell when I switch over to the external view what my elevator trim settings are.

    Hi, Finally after 2.5 years waiting I bought a new FS system and currently I'm busy installing MSFS and add-ons. For previous versions of FS/P3D it was a no brainer to buy/install FSUIPC. Is it still a 'required' add-on for MSFS? I mainly used it for setting up axis/buttons.

    Hello, I have been flying FSX for many years now but I think the time has come for me to get serious about a move to MSFS. But before I take the plunge I think I need a little advice. I dont foresee any hardware issues as I will upgrade just about everything with MSFS in mind. I am however somewhat confused about MSFS scenery. Some while back I understood that MSFS 'streams' scenery 'as you fly'. If this is true then I will have problems with my internet download speeds - which although not too bad at all - are still likely cause some problems. I dont live in a big city but I cant imagine that everybody flying MSFS has super fast internet. So is 'str…

    Since the release of MSFS I, like many others, have been very tolerant regarding all the bugs and issues with the sim. Asobo continue to release world updates with eye candy enhancements and, at least from my perspective, to be disregarding many of the real niggles that plague the platform. I don’t want to be seen as one of those that slag off or continuously complain about things, because I think Asobo have done a stunning job on this sim, but when a massive bug, and I mean massive bug is prevalent in the sim, then I think anyone who is affected, is perfectly justified in complaining. I can only see this from my perspective, and from all the searching online I have …

    Hey all, My neighbours came round last week and brought their little boy, who is 9 years old and seems really interested in planes. So much so in fact he was able to list off his favourite cold war fighters. I was pretty blown away as that seems to be a fairly niche interest for a 9 year old...Anyway, I offered to show him my sim setup and he had a go on DCS F-14 which he really enjoyed but was, understandably, a bit of a tall order for a child with zero aviation knowledge! His parents are over again tonight and he's asked if he could spend some time on the simulator with me, so I'm going to forego beers with my girlfriend and the other adults for an hour (the ult…

    Hey guys, After not flying for a bit due to real life, i find after the updates that my camera views are all messed up..even after setting them back to default... Ive re calibrated my Tobii and that works fine... but when i enter into VC mode, the camera pulls way back (to a wide view so im way behind the seat)and my head is through the roof of the planes.. no matter which one... as soon as i turn off tobii to 2D mode, the view returns to normal... Im wondering if i need to start tweaking the values as at this point i cant really see anything and it makes having the tobii moot... was working flawlessly before with eyepoints at correct height and dist…
