Monday at 09:23 AM1 day Not directly related to the OP, but in the X-Plane ECosystem, which is prone to integration of plugins for all sorts of purposes, I've seen lately an increase of some types particularly interesting for me - weather enhancement plugins.We've seen @MrBitstFlyer haze / visibility plugin, and yesterday I tested two plugins meant to create better overall turbulence effects.I know of at least another great project in the oven, covering this same area, but for the time being, give a try to:X-ProTurb — Professional Turbulence Engine - Utilities - X-Plane.Org ForumandXPT_Turbulence : Last upgrade - Utilities - X-Plane.Org Forum Flying gliders since 1980 Flightsimming since 1992 AMD Ryzen 5600x, 32GB RAM, GPU Nvidia RTX 3060 Ti 8 GB, 1 TB and 500 GB nvme2 SSD drives, HP 27" 60Hz LED monitor @ 1920x1080, T16000, Hotas from old X52 Pro, Saitek Combat Rudder Pro (2010 model)

Monday at 05:59 PM1 day Not sure if it's public knowledge so I have to keep to myself. I will say this, who it is makes me very pleased.

Monday at 06:44 PM1 day Seems the issue of plugins is a perenial - I removed Live Traffic not because it did no work but the overhead and basic demand of the lua script to be running and halt everything else. Given the quality and availability of 3rd Party Connections to populate the AI this could result in wait out times of 90 secs or more. Until this completed you could no nothing with the sim. Some of the logic was askew as well - by that I mean aircraft displayed could change direction eratically in a distorted way. Some places the feed was excellent but if it was an out of the way GA airport - forget it. The performance increase and flexibility now is excellent. Do not miss the traffic experience - there are alternatives - depends on if it is necessary for your sim experience I Guess. Anyhow now see why the first thing the bug hunters go after is Lua scripts.The only issue I have with off the shelf AI programs is they cater very well for big city heavy metal worlds but what is lacking is AI for GA - that is small aeroplanes doing stuff at out of the way airports.
