Just spotted courtesy of a notice on the AVSim front page that a model of the Caproni Vizzola C-22J Ventura is now available on Simmarket for just €9 + taxes I'd never heard of it before but it's a twin engine two seat jet trainer/observation aircraft that looks a little like a Cessna C-37/A-37. Definitely something a little different for people complaining it's all single engine props in MSFS right now so who feels like taking one for the team and trying it out ?

Where do I adjust the steering? Whether I use the tiller or the rudder pedals, I have to constantly apply right force to keep it going straight. I can't ease up or the ac will go left' Were can I make an adjustment for this? Gnacino

This seems like a problem to me. A moment ago I was breaking thru clouds north of KLAS and noticed out of nowhere frames dropped to 25 from GPU being pegged at 99%. I dialed RS back from my default 130 (always fine on the ground almost always fine in the air) to 110 and voila, GPU use down to 70% and back to steady 30 where it belongs for my vsync to 30 config. If there is general agreement I can do a zendesk ticket in case someone hasn't addressed this yet which is possible I think for something like this.

Wondering what might make TTI alarm sound constantly in Longitude even when the guage is showing in the green? Seems over sensitive or if it might be a bug since SU6. Thanks

Aerosoft CRJ-700. I submit a flightplan and have my FMS VNAV set to FL300, but built-in ATC clears me to FL230 and then that's it. Am I goofing somewhere or is this typical?

Hello Avsim members, I have a few questions being new to FS 2020 but not new to flight sims. First question, while making a flight plan on the World Map section of MSFS, I cannot find the 'ENE' VOR (Kennebunk). It simply does not come up as a choosable waypoint, it is in the U.S. And I understand the nav data is updated regularly correct? Next question, it seems that the combination of flying with the fly by wire A320 ( A32nx fbw simulations) and Live traffic, It manages to always crash the sim to desktop. Is there any solution for this? Thank you.

Buongiorno, dove dovrebbero essere aggiunti i fixpoint creati con Little Nav Map in FS2020? Su Little Nav Map ho creato 600 Fixpoint fissi per la navigazione aerea privata militare e civile. Ho esportato i file in .csv e .xml e poi l'ho compilato. Con FSX è facile usare l'SDK, ma con FS2020 chi potrebbe compilarli per me? Chi potrebbe inserire i 600 fixpoint che ho creato nella mappa FS2020?

Hi all, with MSFS maturing more and more and hopefully some nice AI traffic within the next 6 months, I might reconsider doing longhauls from big hubs to other big hubs. For me, due to restricted timeframes, doing sim flights over 3h in real time were never an option, that is why the QW 787 was more or less the only long hauler I ever used extensively back in P3D days. Although not entirely perfect, the "jump ahead" feature of this addon enabled me to perform flights of whatever lenght within this 3h window, something I really liked and used quiet often. Now to the question: does something comparable exist in MSFS (yet)? I know that you can somehow jump to a waypoin…

Several months ago, when I first installed MSFS2020, I went to KFTW Meacham Field in Fort Worth, Texas and did some slow and low flying exploring the area. I don't know if the area was supposed to be photogrammetric or not but I flew some areas that I knew well (having grown up there). After take off from KFTW I headed north towards the suburb of Saginaw and saw one of the grain elevators in the town, and was delighted to see the elevator accurately represented, including the large sign on its side. Then I flew over the town to the west wondering if the High School I attended was there. Yes it was, including the circular main building which was unusual for its time. Other…

Hi All, I just did a test as I am still finding frames are dropping after a period of time and it is nothing to do with traffic this time (I had this after SU5 when using real world traffic) I loaded a flight in the A32NX at CYHM, Ramp 10. When the flight loaded I had a solid 60fps. I did nothing other than leave the sim for around 4 hours and in that time the fps had dropped to around 32. I tried toggling live weather on/off, online data on/off, real world traffic on/off but nothing made a difference. I went to the main menu and reloaded the exact same flight and the fps were back up to 60. I was also monitoring my CPU/GPU usage at the beginning and the en…

I recently reinstalled MSFS. Because of loading problems. All is fine now except for the terrain in the default Bembridge. Either side of the runway are steep grassy hills. I have checked my community folder and MSFS Addons Linker for duplicates and found none. As this is one of my regular destinations, I know it is, and was flat. I compared this airport with a friend of mine and indeed his is flat. So far, all other airports seem to be fine. Any help would be much appreciated

The last few days I have been having an issue where the ATC voice disappears completely during my flights. I still get my co-pilot replies so I can still complete the flight. Are they still having server issues? I don't see anything stating that at the Official forums. I also yesterday totally lost the Online connection but after clicking wait it did reconnect. I have a 1gb connection so bandwidth on my end is not the issue.

I found the topic in the link below which links this issue to both Alpha and Bravo hardware. I did what was suggested in the thread and am still not getting the radio to turn on. Did anyone with alpha and bravo did anything particular to unbind things in order for this to work? https://forum.aerosoft.com/index.php?/topic/163416-electrical-systems-are-all-on-but-the-atc-radio-will-not-work-in-msfs-2020/

On my server when I want to select the runway/parking spot the info display is blanc. My client with exactly the same Addons shows the info . Is it some kind of setting that is Off instead of On ? https://www.dropbox.com/s/gpmhg74ki1hbd6l/Foto 03-11-2021 09 13 41.jpg?dl=0

Translated by Google 😀, sorry I wrote in french. Hello everyone. On FS2020 when I load a flight, I don't have the toolbar at the top of the screen, nor the keyboard shortcuts like V for example. After all-round research, I can not find anything on this subject. I specify that this is a saved flight file .flt and not a .pln flight plan. The objective is to follow tutorials: for example Flight plan integration to MCDU-Cold & Dark-Takeoff-Flight-Landing A32NX Flybywire. After the first phases until the arrival at the runway threshold. I save the flight (Esc, Spacebar, Save) and get a file monvolphase1.flt The problem occurs when I go to "World" to resume my fli…

I have noticed that many (most?) MSFS2020 default airports have runways that follow real world terrain contours. I am wondering if developers have to do anything specific to ensure that their runways follow the terrain contours. I am wondering this because a few of the addon airports that I have installed seem to have perfectly flat runways, but do not remember what they were in the default airports. (I could of course uninstall them and check.) One airport I have flown in real life (EGSU) and am pretty sure that the runway had significant contours, but the addon does not seem to have this feature. I think that the runway terrain contouring is one of the really good feat…

So this (or the coming) week my new computer is finally arriving and... I will be able to fly again in MSFS after not being able to do so for over half a year at least. I am looking forward to it! First thing I did was to check if a Q400 has been released in the meantime... but bummer... nothing... not even an announcement as far as I can tell. Well, maybe it's time then to buy the AS CRJ after all: hopefully it has matured enough by now (...?). I also noticed there is nothing new from A2A yet... In fact, it sort of feels like nothing has really happened at all when it comes to interesting add-ons... or did I miss something? I did read MSFS has had some nice upd…

Hello to all pilot friends! I'm French, excuse my English :) I have a pc with a 3090, 64Gb of ram, a powerful i9 and a g2 reverb. Here is the problem: even in intermediate and with a rendering scale of 80% in the helmet and in flight I only get 40fps which is totally impossible to steal because it gives you nausea. In addition, the game is not very beautiful because of the low rendering scale and the low parameter. I have to play with reprojection via openxr but there are artifacts. Quite disappointing experience so far and I wanted to know if anyone knowledgeable about how to increase performance. I would also like feedback from someone with a big setup. Thanks ev…
