The "co-pilot" is now there by default. How do I get rid of him? Setting the copilot weight in the EFB and the weight and balance page to 0 - still visible.

In the EFB, set the weight to zero and then hit 'Load Instant' 

Just as the passengers don't come fully loaded when you start a flight, the co-pilot shouldn't either in my view. Nothing breaks immersion more for me than seeing that sorry excuse of a human avatar sitting next to me. I don't want to have to remove him, either when I start a flight or before I load by removing the weight in the fuel and weight options. And as this is a Marketplace only addon you don't have access to the flight_model.cfg to remove it permanently. I think having a co-pilot must be something Asobo insist on when selling in the Marketplace, that along with hundreds of liveries whether you want them or not.

I am the same, nothing more off putting if there's a mock C0-pilot sitting in the right seat. I know this is wrong as airliners are never single piloted, but just cannot do it.

The copilot is completely useless, since he/she doesn't actually do anything, takes up space, pixels, and looks awful, it's just a waste of real estate.

Plus, he/she bobs and shakes  like college senior taking a few hits from his bong. 

Real fun to see the response on the pax visible on copilot seat. Half of the crowd demanding a visible pax/copilot as its immersion breaking to not see someone in place when there's weight on the seat. Just as the pax/copilot is in - and you can easily switch it off by putting zero weight on the seat - the other half is going berserk about a copilot/pax visible. Another perfect example for you can't please them all 🙂

Rest assured if that's the biggest issue we are dealing with than it has to be a good plane otherwise 😉

The feedback is already noted and will be dealed with, you can calm down now again about those absolutley horrible minecraft lowpoly alien visible (if you don't turn it off)

Totally subjective but actually me prefer it on and had a wonderful flight in sunrise where the shadow of the copilots head was on my left side visible.

Have fun and fly

cheers T.

I prefer not to see the first officer in the VC (or any passengers for that matter).

Only on AVSim will you see the main criticism of a person in the right seat (removable I might add by entering zero weight in the copilot W&B slot) outweigh a significant performance improvement (among other tweaks) after an aircraft update version. Congratulations FSReborn …. tough to be at the top of your game!

I haven't noticed any change in performance and I didn't have a performance hit before so I'm commenting on the only aspect of the patch which has affected my experience of the product. The kind of feedback such forums are for.

I understand let's please stay positive and polite, I am already thinking solutions to please both sides of the coin.

Have all a wonderful weekend, more updates will come soon with more features and implementing suggestions etc.

Best,

Raul

By the time the kids make senior they're pretty well acclimated. It's those freshman that stagger and turn green until they get their sea legs.

Or so I'm told.

Yea but when you go to that website all you see is Immersion packages.  The Piper is actually only on the  Microsoft marketplace and I never buy anything on there.  I've always purchased directly from the 3rd party itself or one of the good retail vendors.

Why? 🤔

I also avoid the marketplace, but when there's no other possibility...?
What is the problem with MP?

Ini/config files are encrypted and I like to tweak things to my own personal likings.

My other issues with MP have seem to gone away regarding pending purchases.

I have no idea what one want to improve there
