Though I've dabbled with Linux on older laptops etc., I'm unlikely to go down that route for MSFS. BadT's Linker is a *superb* utility - and I applaud your efforts to recreate something like it for Linux. You never know - you might find other MSFS/Linux users out there. So ... keep us all posted!!!

Just to try balance the equation a bit ... I'm not a pilot (or controller) in RL, but enjoy BATC hugely. Of course there are still issues and frustrations - but I'm pleased to see work continuing on the product. MSFS itself is far from perfect and anything that tries building on that foundation is bound to have problems. The nature of forums is that (usually) you hear more from people reporting issues than from those simply using it and enjoying it. Take comfort!

That's a bit of a "gotcha". I've created screenshots of all my nVidia CP settings so I can easily re-apply them after updating the drivers.

Give the free AutoFPS a whirl. It's a game-changer.

I'm a real fan of BATC - and often fly the same route (NZAA-NZWN) to check/test updates or improvements. I have to admit that my flights with the latest updates have been very patchy. Sometimes, BATC simply "forgets" me - typically just before approach. Nothing else on my system has changed, but BATC behaviour does sometimes seem to be slightly erratic. That said - each flight is in real time, real weather etc. so many parameters will vary from flight to flight. I'm happy to keep plugging away as BATC matures.

This irritates the hell out of me too. I'm wondering how many Asobo developers even know where NZ is ...

I wonder who told you they were more realistic in MSFS 2024. Plenty of YouTube videos out there that show the opposite. I'm not a RL pilot so can't say for sure, but Google says: "These lights are visible from about 5 miles during the day and up to 20 miles at night. The visual glide path of the PAPI typically provides safe obstruction clearance within plus or minus 10 degrees of the extended runway centerline and to 3.4 NM from the runway threshold." I hope a RL pilot could give us a definitive answer. There's this, but it's hard to tell how much difference the mode makes: https://msfsmarket.place/world/flyt-misc-runway-lights/

Wow! That's quite a list! I'm amazed at how much detail GSX crams into their animations.

Awesome indeed! BATC is certainly making progress!

You should only start BATC once you're in the aircraft/cockpit 😉

I'd go for a 5.1 speaker system. MSFS has always been good at spatial sound. With decent speaker separation, you get awesome effects - especially at a busy airport if you have AI traffic enabled.

I can understand you having problems with these, but not Simbrief. It's only a website in essence - nothing installed on your system. You don't even need to have a Navigraoph account (I don't). There are dozens of apps/utilities that have access to Simbrief data, but they're entirely optional.

Thanks - will do! 🙂

Hi Amir! I didn't realise who you were until I logged into Discord (still waiting for approval, I think, so I can post). Once that's all set up, I'll take this thread to Discord - unless you want to keep it on here as well, for the benefit of other users. This is just to say that I've been giving the 320 a good workout as I've been digging around with this tiller "issue". I've always been a great supporter/user of the freeware FBW A320 - remarkable piece of work - but I thought I'd give payware a chance - and here I am (!). I've been "flying" with full GSX and BATC integration and must say I'm hugely impressed! For such a complex product, it's behaved itself incredibly well. I'm still learning the ropes, as the Fenix A320 offers much more than the FBW, but I'm enjoying the learning curve greatly. Congratulations to all concerned!
