September 24, 20241 yr The restriction I recall him saying as 100m, but as mentioned above, it will be removed at some point. I think it was based on the scenery not always being perfect enough everywhere to give a proper representation. He also said that having the walkaround feature required them to create a new "center of focus" VS previous iterations where the aircraft was always the center. My take is this possibly could be beneficial for things like slew mode, interior walkthrouhs etc.

We’ll have that, the A400, and hopefully before too long a good C-130…all of my military airlift needs will be well taken care of. There’s something really cool about taking a four engine jet into the kind of crazy places the C-17 can operate out of. I’d still gladly take a C-5 at some point though 😀 Dave Current System (Running at 4k): ASUS ROG STRIX X670E-F, Ryzen 7800X3D, RTX 5090, 55" Samsung Q80T, 64GB DDR5 6000 RAM, EVGA CLC 280mm AIO Cooler, Brunner CLS-E NG Yoke, Thrustmaster Warthog HOTAS & Stick, Thrustmaster TCA Quadrant & Add-on, VirtualFly Ruddo+, TQ6+ and Yoko+, GoFlight MCP-PRO and EFIS, Skalarki FCU and MCDU

September 24, 20241 yr Another video for ya'll. This time is one of the challenges. A-10 low and fast over the Blue Ridge Mountains, with bonus fall vistas. Very pretty place. Editor-in-Chief at SimulationDaily.com

It’s not listed on the chart, but I hope the SkyCourier has the cargo only variant This isn't the interview where he says more about his own concept of historical weather, but you can see 24 hour weather and historical weather are not the same thing for him. Good thing is they will keep looking to implement it. 9800X3D@H150i // Msi RTX 5090 Trio OC // 64GB DDR5 6000mhz CL30 // 2TB + 1TB Nvme Dell 27" 2127DGF - 1440p - Gsync - 165hz Thrustmaster TCA Sidestick Airbus // TCA Quadrant Airbus // TFRP T.Flight Rudder Pedals // Logitech Flight Multi Panel

September 25, 20241 yr Author I just saw a time lapse video of 2020 and 2024 being installed side by side. 2020 took 2 hrs while 2024 took 8 minutes! They also indicated that once the sim is installed, we will have access to all World Updates via streaming data. I remember Jorg mulling over whether or not he would include them right away but we have the answer now. I saw the video on facebook and it was from one of the Xbox podcasts. 5800X3D. 32 GB RAM. 1TB SATA SSD. 3TB HDD. RX 9070XT.

September 26, 20241 yr Yes, I am serious. I prefer 200GB installation on my disk vs. tons of quality issues due to streamed content. I prefer being able to manage and control what I have installed vs. a total mess due to everything (or nothing) available in the cloud. And I certainly prefer being able to modify local files to my likining, usually improving things over default. In contrast, I could not care less about 120 vs. 8min installation time, as I do that exactly once vs. about several thousand hours usage time. And in addition, the price tag of todays SSD storage is so low, I would even not care if the sim is 2TB of local size. But that is just me in the end of the day...

Well, as Seb confirmed in the yesterday's stream, all the content that is newly stream-able now like default and marketplace aircraft, scenery, etc can also be explicitly downloaded in full (there is a checkbox to enable local install for each aircraft etc).

And I certainly prefer being able to modify local files to my liking, usually improving things over default. Who cares about install times? I care more about game startup time. By default, now we I have to wait for assets to stream download each time one starts a flight instead of the files being local. I envision most people changing back to having files stored locally.
