Stock Planes, GPS and 3rd Party GPS Device Support ?

Featured Replies

Noticed basic GPS and G1000 type GPS devices built into stock sim. For stock versions they appear to be OK. No idea how well simulated they are though.

I'm wondering if RealityXP and Flight1 will be able to port their GTN 657 750 etc devices into the new sim.

As a tester, I am not going to comment on simulation of the stock G1000. However, indepenedent on working in the simulator, I wouldn't mind seeing a replacement GTN750. While the G1000 looks nice, I find it generally quite hard to get used to operating it.

Kind regards, Michael

The F1 GTN 750 is a great addon with an annoying deficiency, the non functioning weather page.

Simming since 1981 -  [email protected] GHz with 16 GB of RAM and a 1080 with 8 GB VRAM running a 27" @ 2560*1440 - Windows 10 - Warthog HOTAS - MFG pedals - MSFS Standard version with Steam

 

Under the media permissions as of the 30th game play commentary was allowed and so I will say these systems were functional and in my flights provided all the data expected , there were expedients where some pages were inop or not appropriate to the unit simulated.

Do they meet the needs of the needs of the majority of simmers , Absolutely  and In my experience didn't tank framerates .

The question of Addon units is vaguely addressed in the interview where MSFS2020  support of .dll's  is not provided , so that excludes "as is"  dll use by extension , there are a host of P3D's involved with their own developments and doubtless there will be more by way of products available.

Well.....there appears to be ample space for a RealityXP or Flight1 to give a full featured Garmin experience.

OK ...... reading between the lines, I'll take that as a: "maybe, at some point.... possibly" ?

Why don't they support external dlls anymore?

They are deliberately restricting any 3rd party code from running within the main sim, which means no dynamic linked libraries (.dll). Instead, a virtual "sandbox" is provided in which executable (.exe) files may be run concurrent with the sim, but completely isolated from the sim engine.

There goes then Majestic Dash 8 then?  Much of it runs outside the sim.
