Another orbx sale till march 28th

Featured Replies

Heads up that Orbx seem to have have another sale on. - St Patrick's Day or Ides of March or something, no idea.

 

Regardless of why - it seems to be up to 40% off stuff like the Fly Tampa YSSD Sydney,  EGPN Dundee Scotland and the Iris Jabiru (which has an update to the FM due out tomorrow by the way) .

 

 

They seem to have a sale now every month. Unfortunately I've stopped buying MSFS add-ons until the sim is stable. They need to fix the fps issue ASAP. I can't believe that this has not been addressed.

Me too !!

At least that performance problem that came in with Patch 1.13 and gets more worse with Patch 1.14 - i completly stoped playing MSFS at this time ( and ordering something ) until this issue is fixed because this took all the fun away - sorry to say but this happens to me. 🤔

If its fixed i am ASAP back again..

 

cheers 😉

I am interested in the Jabiru.  Glenn likes it and I probably would have bought it if things were good, but its the same story here.  I am not really flying at the moment until the sim is fixed - so I would see it as a waste of time and money just getting more addons while it is like this.

I just spent on the JF Arrow and FI Spitfire but have virtually zero hours on them at the moment, so I won't pump any more money in currently. 

I will maybe look to get some addons in the winter sales - it might be all fixed up by then!  :unsure: (yes, sarcasm, I know!)

The Jabiru is good for the price, it is not at the same level as the JF Arrow but on special for $20 or so US for two airframes (with steam and glass variants of each) it is not in the same price bracket either. 

It will be interesting to see if tomorrows patch fixes the remaining minor FM issues (stall and ground control) it has had.

Also not buying anything for MSFS. But I'm doing it due to the lack of a flyby view, as I simply cannot enjoy flying without that essential view. Cannot believe the most modern flight sim doesn't have it.

As much as I appreciate the lower prices for MSFS scenery...I'm just not there with buying payware for it yet.

Maybe in another year or two...

Their is a 'Flight Recorder' (free) on flightsim.to for very basic, but stable replay.

Easy to set up flyby view with the replay and drone camera.... I know it is not native, but it works!

Most of what is said on the Internet may be the same thing they shovel on the regular basis at the local barn.

Does the FPS issue include 'screen freeze'?

I have been getting this since the latest update, never prior to that.

If I wait for up to around a minute, [it varies], sim comes to life again. When the screen is frozen, keyboard, joystick, mouse are too, so I can't back out of it.

Mine is a drop in fps after a few minutes of flying. Stutters and poor performance are the result of fps being cut in half. I hope they get this sorted soon.
