Just read these news: https://news.flightsim.to/captain-sim-trying-to-sue-creators-for-publishing-liveries/ In my opinion this would be a wrong move from Captain Sim.

Is it possible to save one's first VR setting and try a different setting while not losing your 1st setting? I found that there are many different settings for VR msfs2020; and I want to try most of them and choose the one that is best for my hardware setting (Zen 2 AMD Ryzen 9 3900XT-MB, RTX 3080, 32 gb of ram)

https://secure.simmarket.com/wf-scenery-studio-hong-kong-international-airport-vhhh-msfs.phtml PS:According to feedback, when flying fbw320, please manually enter the ils frequency. If you find that SID and STAR are missing, please put the VHHH scenery in your content.xml file somewhere between the “fs-base” package and “navigraph-navdata”.

I am not talking about high altitude. Before the update, I flew around Bermuda, and while the water masks weren't brilliant, the landscape and beaches were really sharp. Today, from the same altitude of 2000 feet, they look really blurry - actually painful to look at. The trees and houses are fine, but the landscape, beaches, and reefs/rocks are a real mess. In fact, the houses and trees look so sharp in comparison it just doesn't look right at all. I haven't changed anything. I don't use any of the caches and I have all my texture settings on ultra. I tried running at 200 on LOD (up from 175) but still no good. Everything else is really sharp, just the …

Good morning, Since i got no response in their Discord, i'll try my luck over here. With the current Version 0.7.1. of the WT G3000 i am encountering an issue where the Flightplan does not (or extremely late) switch from the current target waypoint to the next in the active flight plan. While the plane still flies the planned route it the G3000 does not proceed which leads to unreliable distance and time readings. Example: Waypoint A is overflown and the plane turns to waypoint B while the GPS still shows the preceeding leg towards A with increasing distance to A. Sometimes it switches to B at around half the distance bestween A and B but not always. …

If I toggle "third party content" on/off via the World Map it says to me I have a lot more 3rd party content than I'm aware of. Let me explain, if I turn the option off it shows LIRP as 3rd party content but I don't have either freeware or payware content for this airport? So why does the airport disappear from the world map when I turn off 3rd party content?? Does this for tons of other airports as well, can't figure it out?

Did my first flight with the SR22 tonight. Was trying to get out of the mountains so gave this a try. Worked great and is actually very easy to fly (thank you Honeycomb for making an amazing yoke). However, I flew the whole trip by hand due to never being able to get the autopilot to work (thankfully made it out of the mountains before dark). What's the deal? Clicking on any of the buttons just gets a quick light flash (except VNV). Am I missing something?

...who are satisfied w/ the incredible wonderment of MSFS in its default form. This is a PSA for perhaps folks newer to MSFS and especially those coming over from the other sims, lest they fall into the trap of believing everything must be modded, changed, added, adjusted, etc in order to achieve any level of satisfactory experience. I bought MSFS thru the store, accepted all defaults for install location, and have had a grand total of 2 CTD's now in over 300h. I marvel at the threads like, 'OMG! Look at all the new planes coming!....' Whoopee new mesh!...' Wow, another new airport from Orbx' (which will almost certainly kill ILS freq fields in the G3000 MFD, BTW) al…

At PADQ, runway 26 has a mountain at the end of the runway. When I depart it (in flight simulation you can do this scenario), I have to do basically a short field take off and a 30 degree left turn through a pass. Is this runway typically closed for departures?? I looked at AirNav and nothing stood out for this runway. Anyone deported this runway in real life? Thanks!

If I do a backcourse ILS approach and enable REV (“BC”) the LOC needle never centers – it gets close but flies parallel to the runway centerline, never maneuvering to seek the center position. What am I doing wrong?
