I Miss Shift+Z

[andyjohnston.net 620]

I was flying today and the winds were knocking me all over the place (it was in a Cub so that didn't help.  I was tempted to hit Shift+Z to see what the conditions were, then remembered that doesn't work anymore.  It was bad enough that after making a terrible landing the wind flipped my little plane over.

Yeah I wonder if someone could write a little script to get the Dev mode FPS to show with a KB command?

Can't believe how many times I've had to catch myself out of force of habit...!

So long as it doesn’t also toggle FPS too...😜

I use the Nvidia apps frame rate counter...shows the same as the Asobo one, but only shows FPS and not the other information. I agree, I miss the old keystoke too.

If you use one of the last Nvidia drivers, you will get additional performance on the overlay:

fps

99%fps

render latency (very useful)

CPU utilization

GPU utilization

You can also get more info on the Performance tab.

I use the 460.79 driver

Hm, I think it was mentioned in their latest Feedback Snapshot.

I think the OP is really looking for the weather info.

Nice try 🙂

Microsoft and Asobo are just trying to make the experience more realistic. You can't just push Shift+Z in a real airplane.

Couldn't you dial in the frequency of the closest ATIS service?

You also cannot pause a real airplane to get a sandwich, but does that mean they should make it so that we have to pack our lunch before we start the sim.

They should have had a 100% realism mode for those that wanted it, you set to 100% real flight, forces no pause, nothing is different than a real plane. Get up to use the restroom and you will miss an ATC radio check and you lose your sim pilot license 😛

OK, silly question... how do I do this?

So in the tray is an Nvida icon. Right click and choose GeForce experience. In the settings there is an HUD option. Chose FPS and location. This is close to the procedure but I'm not sure of the details.
