This time it adds 50 replacement ships per each default ship. Available at ORBX.

I have been getting "Bandwidth is too low for data streaming, switch to off line mode now" for a number of days now since the latest upgrade. Never had this before and I have been flying in MSFS 2020 since it first came out first using the FBW A320 and then with the PMDG 737 and the Fenix, my system was able too work very well indeed. It is rather distressing as I can only fly off line now. One good thing is I am able to concentrate on the 1000 aboard the C 172 and flying using the instrument as per pic with the occasional look outside at the dreadful off-line scenery. Better than nothing though I suppose!!! Does anybody else have this problem? I have a fairly powe…

Is anyone aware of any YouTube channel that has looked at all the various ATC solutions? I can search each one and find some review videos, but I’d love it if a single reviewer has put them all to the test to get a clearer picture of pros/cons.

Great video with lots of things I knew nothing about or had ever considered on Airbus high temperature operations. 320 Sim Pilot (a real world Airbus pilot) really is a fantastic source of learning and information for the simulation community.

Flight Simulator First Officer (FSFO) have just released a version for the Fenix A320. I have been testing the PMDG 737 module in the Update 10 Beta and along with FSHud and it works perfectly fine. https://clips.twitch.tv/DarlingHeartlessPuppyOptimizePrime-kw45Q0xtFs3nMsoM

Good morning, i wonder if anyone of you managed to save a flight with the fenix and sucessfully can reload it with all systems running. I tried it with FSUIPC but no luck. With P3D i used to save flight while on final to do those landings again and again but with MSFS this seems not to be possible for the time being. Thanks for your help, Carsten

Hello, Im writting because Im finding some issues with the FBW 32N stable version and Experimental... Everything works well but when I go to F-PLN in the MCDU is complety blank like kind of bug Does anyone can help me with this issue please? Thanks

That M.S., when starting the sim...at the bottom right of the opening still screen, calls MSFS a 'game', and not 'starting--> simulator<--'. Sort of suggests the overall mindset of MSFS? Always makes me smile...for the outright wars some have here, as to whether MSFS is after all, a flight game...or uh...a serious simulator of the physics of flight. M.S. feels it's a game, it seems lol! Ses

Is the the TCAS fully operable on the Fenix A320? I have seen traffic while on the ground but not during flight? TIA

Hi all I haven't flown the -700 in quite a while now. I did a quick flight yesterday from KLGA La Guardia to KDCA Washington Natl. I chose an RNAV approach into rwy 19. The issue is that I never saw any indication to start the glideslope. I thought this would happen just before reaching SETOC, which is the final approach point. Now - it could be that I messed up, since I haven't flown it in a while. I was at SETOC at 1500' as per the charts, so naturally I had to do a go-around. Not enough time to correct the mistake at that low altitude. On the second attempt I descended in V/S after FAP and disconnected the autopilot early. RNAV approaches should be wor…

Hi, after years of staying grounded, I made a flight with E190. My seat was a center seat in 3rd line and I managed to see quite a lot to cockpit before the start. So, I have no knowledge of this plane and I became curious: How automatic is this plane? How does it compare to B737 or A320? If sombody would enlighten me, I'll be grateful. Petteri

I just changed my HD and reloaded my files but can't find where to download MSFS 2020 after I have used it and paid for it...can anyone help me with this...I do not have the steam version.

Till Aug 1. On their website only. I had Barcelona which I love and just brought Madrid (which includes city) and Miramar since I was a Marine lol. Saved 14 bucks. Sale price not visible till you put them in your cart.

My first flight plan from LittleNavMaps. Exported it into MSFS2020 as .flp file. Loaded it into the World Menu and it displayed in full on the World map. Pressed FLY and opened up the plane and no flight plan exist. Does the World/Load FP not work. If it does please tell me what I'm doing wrong. Thanks, Roy

Some of you may know me from my airport sceneries. Now when CYOO is released, I’m considering my options for which Canadian airport to do next. I’m open to suggestions regarding what are the most demanded airports that have not been done by anyone else and are not in the development currently by anyone, or are available in poor enough quality to be largely ignored. Naturally I would like to avoid unnecessary competition with other fine scenery developers by working on the same area, but rather work towards covering more Canadian airports instead, so we all win. I was going to proceed with work on CYQB next, however a fair quality freeware was just released this …

I purchased an Xbox X a couple of weeks ago, along with a download version of MSFS 2020. Due to a slow internet connection (6.5 Mbps) it took a week to download the 100+ gigabytes. I am trying to run the program offline. When I open MSFS and attempt to fly, I get this message: “You are currently offline and do not have the optional Offline Mode files installed, so cannot start a new flight.” It says to check connection. I checked, and it is connected. I clicked on the “EXIT AND DOWNLOAD OFFLINE CONTENT". I have done this twice and waited 24 hours for slow download. It didn’t work. ANY SUGGESTIONS? (not shouting) I am an old geezer and wanted to do the…

New tutorial on Simvol written by Pacha35: Managing addons with MSFS Addons Linker https://www.simvol.org/en/articles/tutorials/managing-addons-msfs-addons-linker

This is for anyone who was using FRAPS to display frame rate, and experienced a sudden loss of the FRAPS screen display after a recent update of the game software. Turns out that one of these patches installs DX12 as the default graphics driver, and FRAPS isn't compatible with it. You can restore FRAPS functionality by setting the game to use DX11 instead. Doing this not only cleared up the FRAPS problem, it fixed a couple of other glitches too: specifically, with the flight planning map, which was covered with solid yellow and green color blocks at some zoom scales. I was also having trouble with frame skipping, loss of frame rate, and jitter. After downgrading the graph…

So i had just gotten my thrustmaster tflight hotas one joystick. i plugged it into my xbox and opened MSFS2020. I then went to alternatives for controls. At this point i was using My Xbox controller since i couldnt steer around in the menu with the joystick. The joystick didnt show up in the settings. I found a button which said add input or something, clicked it and entered a name ”joystick” thinking it would connect. But, it actually disconnected my controllers left joystick from the game,so now i cant play msfs2020, any help????

Hi, has anyone tried something like this with the new multi-monitor support beta 10? I did not opt in so cannot test. Just came across it and it got me thinking if at least in theory, this means we can have a 3 monitor display within an ultra wide monitor without the bezels. Wouldn't it be a game changer? It would cost a fraction of buying 3 monitors yet potentially yield equivalent if not better results? Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself with this. There is a generous 30 day pro version trial they offer. If someone tries, please let me know. Thanks. https://www.displayfusion.com/

Anyone else having multiple wind direction changes in cruise lately? The last week every flight I have a drastic shift back and forth between a head wind and tailwind at cruise which almost causes the Fenix and 737 to flip over. Weather seems a bit more bugged of late.

I use the default live weather, the cloud is injected normally in the first few hours, but after a few hours, I don't see the cloud, is there a way to solve this problem completely? I also informed msfs team about this problem, but there is no answer

Would much rather buy direct from developer as assumed they would benefit more? Not purchased via marketplace before and I understand Marketplace can have a delay on updates. However went to purchase Milviz 310 for $39.99 (About £32) direct from them , but then with taxes added on for UK it came to approx. £40.00. Yet if I buy from the market place its £33.49. Seems a shame but is there any other other disadvantage of buying from Marketplace ? Any install issues? Spotted some posts about purchases not going through properly ( not using steam version) Cheers

Hi, I am using Flight Recorder to replay my landing but the reversers do not open on touch down. Is there any trick I can use so that reversers get animated during the replay ? Best regards, Pierre
