300 hours in!!!

Featured Replies

Just passed 300 (recorded) hours and still loving the sim.  Got the Mooney out of the hangar finally and did some quick flights.  No CTDs!!!!  Getting myself brought up to speed on it so I can start doing some sightseeing and looking for POIs.  It's been quite an interesting ride these past few months.  AP issues, CTDs and the like but I'm still here and still loving the sim.  I haven't even considered going back to FSX, even though I miss some things like Reality-XP with the 430/530 and a couple planes I had purchased. 

Definitely going to be an interesting 2021.   

No CTDs... I have 300 hours according to steam although probably 10 hours of downloads. But I have had many CTDs. What is your PC specs? I also am looking forward to what is to come. We are at the ground floor. 

I have over 200 hours and lots of CTD but I only have 16gb of ram.

I upgraded to 32GB because ram is cheap these days and on occasions ram usage does blow out to the 26 -28 GB mark. Never seen 32GB used, 28.5 was the highest usage I have spotted, typically it actually sits down around 18GB most flights.

It however seems unlikely that more ram would effect CTDs .

Huge accomplishment.  I just hit 315 hrs.  But that is for the entire calendar year with more time available due to the pandemic!  Onward Little Jenny!

Keep up the good work. At 1500 hours you will be ready for your ATP sim certificate. 😀

I just wanted to know if there is a way to reset the hours played?

Or above all I would like to reset my logbook I think it's in cloud like the keyboard keys but there is a way normally to be able to reset it to 0 ?

My hours are stuck at 47! To make matters worse, the logbook constantly logs that my destination airport is the same as the departure, and the hours flown do not seem to be registered anywere.
Luckily LittleNavMap does a better job at keeping records.

Flightsim rig:
CPU: AMD 5900x  | Mobo: MSI X570 MEG Unify | RAM: 32GB G.Skill Trident Z Neo | GPU: Gigabyte RTX 3090 | Storage: M.2 (2 & 4 TB) | PSU: Corsair RM850x | Case: Fractal Define 7 XL
Display: Acer Predator x34 3440x1440 | Speakers: Logitech Z906 
Controllers: Fulcrum One Yoke | MFG Crosswind v2 pedals | Honeycomb Bravo Quadrant |Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant | Stream Deck XL & Plus | TrackIR 5 Tobii eye tracking

My logbook was broken for a while. I have no idea and really can care less about my number of hours in the sim. It's a nice feature when it works.

Lost a load of hours when the log book failed for a few weeks. On 303 hrs recorded.

Oh I have had CTDs since the initial release (one of the patches caused them and of course the Carenado-related ones).  But since the latest updates, none.  I'm running an i7-10700 with 16GB and a Nvidia 2060 Super.

16GB here and none of the CTDs I have had were memory related.  I'll probably upgrade to 32GB but it's definitely not a necessity for me right now.

Do you think they'll give it to me even though I'm flying a SR22?  🤣

Even if you fly a 172. 😀
