Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)

My last bush trip to Mariposa was amazing. Any other bush trip suggestions ns

Anyone else try flying the JW1 jetwing? I'm having a blast with the thing. It's great for sightseeing, or just messing around. Wondering if there's anyway to silence the beeping that happens when you start to run low on fuel? Other than that, this thing rocks. I was flying off the wingtip of a 737 while it was on final. Good times 😀

People obsess with this sim at many different levels and intensities. It shows engagement, that people are interested in how the product evolves and want to influence how it improves. It leaves Asobo endlessly triaging new stuff and bug fixes, which is fine, but I do wonder if they could deck two very long running "features" that many new users will sooner or later notice as bugs. The first is the music. If you specify the music to be "off" it still bursts through twice - for a second or so - as the sim loads. It's been doing this ever since being able to turn off the music was an option. The second is the marshalling guy whose right hand baton disappears…

Hello chaps, As far as the official forum goes - can someone please explain to this complete MSFS forum n00b what I need to do in order to post or vote? I'm logged in, but as it stands, I can't do anything! I had to use another Microsoft account (after my original one would not log in no matter what - MSFS technical support bascially said there's nothing they can do about it and I should use their discord). But I'm logged in and can't do much? Some advice would be much appreciated! Cheers, Rudy

I just installed PSXT version 31.0.12 beta, and RealTraffic 9.0.176. It's a whole new world. You add in LiveATC, and this sim is a lot of fun. Before that, I was enjoying AIG with the traffic controller. But the IVAO file does not include any GA ai aircraft. I would like to figure out how to inject GA aircraft for use in PSXT to go along with the commercial aircraft that PSXT uses. I asked the question over at the PSXT forum, and it was suggested that I ask the question here. Has anyone had any success loading GA aircraft into MSFS so that PSXT can recognize them and inject them so they can be tracked like the commercial aircraft are tracked? Can they b…

I notice there are 500+ items on sale in the Marketplace. How do I show a list of all the items on sale? I simply can't figure it out...

I can't order anything. The screen gets stuck at the address and will not proceed further. It does not show any country or city. Am I missing something here? Thanks https://drive.google.com/file/d/1CX6R9FX5iw0rAGM6Jm9O3OpP6E5jrTOk/view?usp=sharing

So, with DLSS coming, what will it bring us? At the moment I run 4K. I could reduce the render scale to 80 to get more fps, but, I don’t. Reason being, is that if I keep it at 100, using a 3090, I can maintain my target fps, and eliminate stutters as I become limited by gpu and not main thread. How will DLSS help in this scenario?

Hi all, today I wanted to adjust my view command controls in MSFS to avoid this annoying accidential zooming in and out when operating a switch or knob with the mousewheel. Easiest approach: re-map the zooming in and out instead of the mousewheel alone to a combination of button and mousewheel, e.g. "mouse 4" + "mousewheel up" for zooming in. I KNOW that this worked in an earlier version of MSFS, but now, for whatever reason, I can bind it without issue but clicking on "mouse 4" instantly fully zooms out and the mousewheel has no effect at all. Furthermore, I MUST select in the controls option whether I want the action to take place upon pressing the button or releasing i…

I'm flying the airplane in the subject because interested in the VNAV development, but I have problems to use it because often the distances between the TOD and the approach are too short, no time and no space to descend to appropriate altitudes. I'm using this Simbrief profile: https://docs.flybywiresim.com/fbw-a32nx/feature-guides/loading-fuel-weight/#development-version

For anyone who owns FSUIPC7 for MSFS, how is your experience so far, i.e., can it assign reverse thrust on a Thustmaster Warthong Throttle?

Disappointing - this was due to be released on Monday.

Hi I have downloaded a few aircraft to try out, unzipped them as they are, now some show in hanger some don't For example In my Community Folder have (spaces just to make it easier to read!)

FBW A320NX now has the hold function implemented! For us non-pilots it is explained very well here: Thank you FBW team! Amazing programming and feature! Much appreciated!

This is a quality addon - everyone should give it a try - it dims the nuclear yellow taxiway signs you can barely read in the evening. Now....if the taxiway signs would match real airports all the time hehe... https://flightsim.to/file/30487/too-bright-taxiway-sign-fix Here's two views for you taxisignday by Ryan Butterworth, on Flickr taxisignnight by Ryan Butterworth, on Flickr

I have the FSDreamTeam Version of TNCM but wonder what others are using. ns

Hi all. So I have AIG fully installed and it is operational. I have installed PSXT and Real Traffic (including subscription). So I am trying to edit the parameters.xml file in PSXT to use the AIG stuff. Some background info: MSFS is installed on my F: drive and my Community folder is on my E: drive This is a section of what I have right now in the parameters.xml file for PSXT: <parameters> <parameter name="COLLISION_USER_GND" value="true" /> <parameter name="MAIN_WINDOW_X" value="400" /> <parameter name="MAIN_WINDOW_Y" value="20" /> <parameter name="SNAPSHOT_MINUTES" value="30" /> <paramete…

I downloaded and installed the GTN 750 free version yesterday, and I notice that it doesn't load the flight plan like the 530 or 430 does. Has anyone else seen that?

can anyone here load a flight in EIDW Dublin with latest SU8? on both my PC Steam version & Xbox version, it always CTDs whilst loading a flight…

Time for another weekly update! First of all, the Kodiak is being tested by MS for marketplace ingestion. Still no date for it but we hope it won't take much longer. The Kodiak's update is ready and we expect to release it next week. On Tuesday we will complete our server change, so we expect the site to be down for 12-24h. Once we verify correct operation, we will upload the update and you will receive an e-mail to download it. Regarding the amphibian, we can't get around the physics of bouncing water. We asked Asobo about the bouncing problem that all seaplanes seem to have and were told that there is no short-term fix planned for this. Therefore we decided to fin…

Hello, Has anyone experiencing this situation: After I choose departure airport and arrival and click to fly........flightsim closes or exits. Can anyone help me on this thanx....appreciated it.......

Hi All, today I sent the following to Zendesk which is self explanatory “When I first launched MSFS today I had a message stating that the internet connection was lost (my internet was working outside of the simulator). I'm not sure if that is relevant but I mention it just on case. I then had a message saying that Content Manager was not up to date, I could not get off this screen so I had to use End Task to close MSFS. I closed down the PC and when I went back a couple of hours later and launched MSFS everything was working fine, lost connection problem had disappeared. I carried out a small flight in the Cessna 172, live weather etc all good. At the end of …

The Carenado Seneca prop animations are the best I've seen in MSFS. Not sure why either but I like them. ns
