    Modded or not, my ILS green diamond on TBM 930 has never ever been able to flollow the glide slope. It is intercepting the ILS signal but the VS is not that right. Anyone can help?

  3. The new hotfix today provides an additional option in the graphics menu to select the quality of "Raymarched Reflections." What in the world does this mean? Can someone provide screenshots demonstrating the difference between Low Raymarched Reflections and Ultra Raymarched Reflections? I've never heard this term in my life.

    Don’t see that listed in the release notes but i can see them now. They were missing before this update. Also, panning around now i see no tree or scenery popping in. This is a change. The clouds look better too. So this update appears to have fixed a few things not on the list.

  12. Hello, So since WU6 got installed, everytime I fire up the sim it asks me if I'd like to start in safe mode because my last session was ended unexpectedly. First I intentionally quit the sim, second everything is up to date, third my community folder is empty. Anyone got this too or has an idea what might be causing this issue? I'd really like to avoid another instalation marathon...

    A friend of mine has an 13yo son, who has just got one of the new xbox's and bought himself MSFS. Now he can't stop playing with it. It's fair to say he wouldn't have been able to get into flight simming in any other meaningful way at the price point he has managed to, and it's ignited a love of flying, even if the virtual flying he's doing isn't anywhere near procedurally correct or aerodynamically advisable! Hopefully he'll graduate to some more mature piloting skills in time, but it's good to see young people being inspired afresh.

  17. Does Asobo is working on issues with FM and taildraggers? Do you know something about it? This is serious issue and from one year after I dont see significial improvements with this. The problem is general and applies to basically all models, but it is most noticeable with taildraggers. It will only get worse because the Ju-52 is coming and it will continue to be bad. The problem is that here, in principle, the rudder does not work, but it suddenly starts to work with almost full power above 40 kts. This is very noticeable with the crosswind when you start to unrealistically to go right or left. It's not about technique in the sim. It just doesn't work that way. The …

  20. ....as one of my sessions beefed to me... "Er...excuse me? I have 945 Mbits per SECOND of bandwidth, are you KIDDING ME?" When that message box came up...I quickly did a download stream test from my ISP. Yep.,..945 Mbits download speed. So...if you get that message yourself...I think it is TOTALLY at M.S.'s Server end...and not your ISP provider's download data path! Just sayin'....

  24. Started by DirectTo,

    Hi guys, Just today moved from a 28 inch 4k 60hz monitor to a 32 inch 1440p 144hz monitor and the results are just wow. I cannot even really tell the difference from 4k to 1440p everything looks crisp , smooth and stable. Averaging around 80fps on ultra present with a RTX 3080 , i7 10700k. It will be certainly harder to go back to 4k where's there's hardly and difference. Ive never seen the sim run so smoothly not one stutter and screen flick what so ever. Impressed to say the least.

  25. Version 0.6.0 of workingtitle-g1000nxi is stored in D:/FlightSim 2020/Official/Steam along with all the other Asobo and Microsoft folders. I had assumed the WT G1000 Nxi mods would therefore be automatically activated when I start the sim. But - I do not find the workingtitle folder listed in the most recently update contents.xml. I do find everything else I want activated in contents and the last modification date/time matches the last time I ran the sim I am wondering if 0.6.0 of the Nxi mod is actually running in the sim - how would I know? Should workingtitle-g1000nxi appear in contents.xml?
