August 9, 20232 yr Well, people have different needs and priorities, but in 2023, I am not astonished anymore by a 2D panel, a simple forward view window and the use of a -8i model although a -400 is simulated. This was ok back in FS9 days, when graphics were not so good anyway and a virtual cockpit was a nice-to-have thing, but today? Sorry, but no, even if it is 100% realistic system wise, it is a total immersion killer visually... but then, that is just my opinion, others might be perfectly fine with such a combo Greetings, Chris AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, 2x32GB DDR5 6000MT/s RAM, MSI RTX 4090 Ventus 3X, Windows 11 Home, MSFS2024

Could you kindly share your steps to make this amazing product work in the MSFS2020 environment? Thank you. 747 Captain for the last 39 years, and still learning.
August 9, 20232 yr Have it and it can be a blast when it gets connected to MSFS but as others said, having a 2D panel feels... not enough nowadays. The biggest problem with Aerowinx+MSFS altough is the fact that your plane isn't afffected by MSFS weather and it is impossible to set real time weather to be injected autoamtically at every stage of flight into Aerowinx. Without that it looses the appeal for me personally. It is indeed a cool thing (considering that you can connect it to MSFS, x plane or even google earth) but it feels nicer to use a native MSFS plane after all - with the virtual cockpit, nice sounds, "alive" behaivour and so on... Would really recommend to consider Aerowinx only if you're building a home cockpit based off the 747

Thank you. @LRBS, I never used it with MFS in my own PC, only with P3D and X-Plane, but I will try to find the tutorials somewhere between the Aerowinx forum and youtube. Example: Layout Resource for PSX & Scenery Generator viewed on the same monitor (aerowinx.com) PSX.NET.MSFS.WASM Version 10 - The Next Generation MSFS Scenery Link For PSX (aerowinx.com) New scenery bridge tool between PSX and MSFS (aerowinx.com) The panel of the new PSX version released in 2014 is way more graphically appealing than that of the first version, PS1, that I bought in 1997 and used extensively, first with fs9 and then with fsx 🙂 PSX is designed for multiple monitors & CPUs so that we can actually create a "networked cockpit" with all sorts of features, including MCC, easily integrated. There has been an announcement of an even more "revolutionary" interface. Regarding weather injection and match between PSX and MFS, I believe that setting weather to Real World in MFS and "tunnel-based" + Real METAR in PSX the end result should allow for a nice match, although, OFC, we can't expect cells to match in the radar ...

On the main site of aerowinx you have the "addons" page that lists the "linkers" to the sims. I used PSXexternalsim for MSFS and Xview for x plane. All the specific instructions are listed in the respective forum pages
August 9, 20232 yr Sweet lord no. Even if that was the only simulator left on the planet, I'd just take up knitting. [MSI MPG X870E Carbon | 9800X3D (PBO +200Mhz / -20 Offset) | Corsair 64GB DDR5 (Custom Timings) | RTX 4090 Founders Edition (Undervolted) | WD SNX 850X 4TB + 4TB | Antec Flux Pro]
August 9, 20232 yr FS2000 called, can they have their aircraft back please .. .. G Gary Davies aka "Gazzareth" Simming since 747 on the Acorn Electron
August 9, 20232 yr I have in the past used that combination in MSFS, because the native 747 and 787 were hopeless pre-AAU2, and because arguably the Aerowinx 747 is as authentic and 'study level' as it is possible to be - one could spend a lifetime learning its little wrinkles. However, with AAU2, we've now got very plausible big Boeings, not to mention seamlessly integrated with scenery, weather etc. Petraeus

August 9, 20232 yr Jeeze, no need to word not allowed on the guy for bringing this to our attention. I've got thousands of hours flying the real 747, and would MUCH rather fly the 2D Aerowinx in the sim than the AAU update. As "believable" as the AAU updates have made the heavies, they're nowhere near, not even remotely near anything high fidelity. No offense to WT and their hard work, but from a real world standpoint, the plane is just not there yet.

August 9, 20232 yr I will wait another 2+ years for a PMDG 747 for MSFS or go back to FSX first if in need a "high fidelity" 747 right now but I don't. I'm not a real pilot and don't plan to be one either. Edited August 9, 20232 yr by JBDB-MD80
