Has anyone else within the last few days had this program freeze and then crash? It happened to me yesterday and today. It never did this before over the nine months I've been using it. Can't find anything in their Discord section about this,

I first noticed very slow response times from beyound ATC while on SU2. I am now on SU3 and the problem still is there. Anyone else seeing this issue? I use the auto response selection , I do not use a microphone. Sometimes it says "generating response" for a long time. Thanks, JIM w6hxw

I enjoy MS2024 but even in 2020, the PG was outdated. I live in Huntsville, AL and the city is changing so fast that about 25% of the city's new development is missing and unfortunately the road near my house that was widened starting in ~2017 is part of that 25% change. Makes me wonder when there will be a fresh set of photos taken to refresh all of the PG... Does anyone know if/when this will happen?

And this happens regularly every 4-6 seconds, which I've never experienced before. (PMDG build V.2.0.121 ) now on MSFS2020 sim update 16. But I've also seen this in the latest PMDG build ( not before ) and without sim update 16, i.e. the latest MSFS2020 build. Anyone else seeing something like this? I'm a bit annoyed because I've never had anything like this before...🤔 ( they are short but they are there, if you use time compression then they stand out more ) I did a flight couple of days before with the INI A350-900 and did not notice such continius stutters.. cheers 😉

I installed the latest NVIDIA GPU driver for my RTX 4090. I did the registry hack (EnableGR535 to '0'). But I still have Image Scaling in the NVCP after a PC reboot. Can't for the life of me think what's wrong. I double checked the registry to ensure I had made the correct change. Any help?

Through Manual DLL Swap (Try at yer' own risk!) Wonder if this will show up in SU4..... https://wccftech.com/dlss-swapper-reportedly-allows-replacing-fsr-3-1-with-fsr-4-through-manual-dll-swap/ FSR 4's main feature is its AI-powered upscaling using machine learning, which significantly improves image quality and detail retention compared to previous versions. It also offers enhanced temporal stability, reduces artifacts and ghosting on moving objects, and includes frame generation for significantly higher frame rates. A key benefit is its wide cross-GPU compatibility, as it supports AMD, Intel, and Nvidia graphics cards, unlike DLSS which requires pr…

This is still "early access" but feels quite polished and a blast to fly! a2a is building a first rate piston twin and the flight model is really immersive. Not inexpensive, but sometimes you get what you pay for..

I have Tobi Eye Tracker 5. I am trying to bind ALT 7 to one of the Buttons on my yoke. I need detail instructions on how to do this. I've tried everything I new in the past but that doesn't work. This should be straight forward. I must be missing something. Reason for detail instruction. Thank You Bill McCracken

I have flown the XF-11 in MSFS 2020 for months. The sound of its huge engines is great if you're a prop guy like me. Had absolutely no problems with the aircraft until the latest update to v. 2.1. They apparently have now made it into a study plane. I have been unable to finish a flight in the last five times with it. The engines just stop mid-flight. I've gone on-line and watched videos about fuel management and engine management to no avail. Babied the engines--flown at different altitudes and speeds, watched EGT and have not pushed it to the max. Does anyone else have this problem? If so, if you've solved it, please share your solution with me as I really like …

Actually, I have no urge, or interest in re-installing MSFS anymore. I guess I've just lost interest. It's just not for me. I have many more options with P3D.( carrier landings, air to air refueling, Fighter jets that can carry weapon stations and fire them!) Orbx, Fly Tampa, Rex Sky Force, Tac Pack, FS Dream Team, and many aircraft. Is it just me?? Thanks, Mike

Just had a rather confusing flight in the Fenix A320, landing at EGPE (Inverness) where the aircraft stopped giving me the expected landing guidance, forcing me to turn it into a visual approach. I've set out what I did below in the hope someone here can tell me where I went wrong. I set the flight up in Simbrief (Liverpool EGGP - Inverness) without too much thought and took off easily enough. I was specifically looking for a VOR/DME approach without using the ILS so ignored that in planning. En route I realised the wind had swung around and given me a 9kt tailwind for landing on runway 05 as initially planned. Being about 100nm out I tried to reprogram the box …

I'm struggling to set up aircraft-specific response curves for my joystick and rudder. I've got my stick currently set up 100% linear because that is what works best for the Fenix A32X but that results in massive overcontrolling for most other aircraft. Any advice is appreciated.

Hey guys, I have a question about one item in the procedures or checklist, as it were, which has to do with the mixture settings. 1. During climb, the mixture item mentions that it should be set to 78 lb/hr, so if I have to set the fuel flow indicator to: A) 78 lb/hr on both needles or close to 78 lb/hr? (There are two engines, which is why I mention both needles.) B) 39 lb/hr on each needle for a total of 78 lb/hr. C) The aircraft's GPS has a fuel data option, including digital fuel flow, and no matter how hard I try to set it to 78 lb/hr, it goes to 81 lb/hr or 69 lb/hr. So it would be set above or below, i.e., 81 lb/hr or 69 lb/hr. 2. Cruising is a b…

i purchased this from Innibuilds and have not been able to get this to work, show up in the sim, appear......Have exchanged emails to support with no success. I have no way to know if the problem is on their end or mine except to say i have purchased directly from them other products that work fine. I want PHNL and am contemplating purchasing it again this time through MSFS marketplace. I'm interested in other simmers comments on their experience with this product. I am a long time Innibuilds satisfied customer. Thank you.

Saw on a FB page that folks are using ChatGPT to get specific details on how to optimize their PC's for max performance in MSFS. You just tell it what your PC's specs are and if you are wanting max FPS or more biased towards better graphics, I finally decided to try it and found that AI recommended some significant changes to the settings I had previously thought were optimum. It gave me a long list of suggested changes, ranging from in-game graphics settings to tweaks on the Nvidia app and to my PC itself. So far, I'm pretty impressed with the results. You guys should check it out..
