This stream auto-updates     

  1. Past hour
  2. WebFIPs don't utilize CSS. It would help if you would post the actual code of that gauge, so I can try it on my end.
  3. Loving it 😃 I’m sure with time and updates it’ll mature even better than what it already is . mike
  4. Needs an update before I purchase . after what I have read. if they make it as smooth as klax with FSTL instant purchase. mike
  5. That's an interesting approach. If the PC is actually offline, then MSFS will not work and if the simulator is "offline", then that just means that the multiplayer part will not work. I wonder why a hacker would target a single and innocent flight simulator enthusiast on one PC at home, when for the same amount of work, the hacker might be able to extract millions from a multi-national corporation.
  6. where to add to wishlist? I wish offline photorealistic textures. Thanks
  7. I'm usually offline for not be exposed to hackers etc. But from time to time I fly online to see the nice photorealistic textures. Wish I could save them on HD for later offline flights.
  8. I think this guy has proved that he is one of the greatest of all time with his Brussels and Oslo airport packages, so I would not expect anything less with Frankfurt.
  9. Maybe they can optimise this airport with a next update, i assume some LOD settings maybe are not correct, hopefully they find a way because the Airport itself is a fine artwork ! cheers 😉
  10. There have also been reports of other wx-addons being installed causing this issue of no wx depiction (in addition to the toolbar mod incompatibilities, which should be resolved very soon). Please make sure that you disable any other wx-adons.
  11. Always off, better for my System and i do not see this apocaliptic mess that mostly happens because i do not like it like this !! cheers 😉
  12. with best intention but i can't relate to you experience. Are you sure the aircraft has been updated?
  13. It does sound like a wake effect event, for sure, that's the only thing that we have in air effects that gives a significant rolling motion (when you're in those relevant portions of the simulated vortices). Not sure what triggered it. And it seems excessive to do that much damage in the aircraft you were flying. But it may have been correct. I have multiplayer traffic on and sometimes will see aircraft move/slew right in front of me, giving me the wake, and some times I don't see them (but then see them and their wake trail in the map). It's possible a heavy did leave a wake trail for you. I'd suggest flying with wake off to see if this goes away. If you find any specific issues please let us know.
  14. I purchased Active Sky today, honestly being very skeptical, since it is a preset based weather engine (thanks MS for not opening up the API.....) If nothing else I wanted to support HIFI, because during FS9 days it was my reliable go-to weather engine, that I used for years with much enjoyment (remember 2D clouds?). A bit of a background. I have a home cockpit, a A320 cockpit build to scale 80% done. Running the Fenix. The two front views are running on two different PC, on two copies of msfs connected via network. I did a flight from CYYC to KMSP, I picked this route, because it pretty much had cloud cover all the way. That resulted in having Active Sky running on the left (main view) and default msfs live weather running on the right view. I know, not perfect, but it gave me a clear impression of the difference. And the difference is huge just looking at the clouds. For the first time ever I saw cloud depiction, that I have never ever seen before in a sim ever! Yes, finally not always the boring, same dramatic looking cumulus clouds that I have been complaining about for years and that belong into a game, not into a simulator! Having the comparison right in front of my eyes during the 2 hour plus flight was amazing! Even during cruise and overcast skies, things changed, sometimes there where cirrus clouds, sometimes haze 50 miles out above the overcast. Things I have seen during real flights over the years as well... Descending into KMSP METAR called for three layers of clouds with a breakout at 6500 feet. On the Active Sky view I had those three distinct layers, all with different depictions and light, in the msfs view three layers where kind of bunched together, you guessed it, in the same boring looking cumulus clouds. What an amazing difference! In the real world there are 16 different cloud types. MS has one, AS at least 5, but that is just after a short test. Shame on you MS. Clouds are one thing. But winds and turbulences are another. With AS the air feels alive. When you hit a cloud or a cloud layer, you can 'feel' the light chop or a more distinct raddle. I did not experience any sudden wind shift, everything felt very realistic. I did have one frame rate drop during cruise with some haze above the overcast, but I can not say 100% it was an AS issue. Now I have to figure out how to run AS over network, or just buy a second copy. Beside the Fenix, Active Sky is the best MSFS add-on I have purchased. Weather is such an important part of flying and MS ought to get their act together for 2024 or just hire HIFI. One recommendation is to have a trial version of AS. People who will try it will buy it! Period.
  15. Today
  16. ASFS is permitted for use, non-simultaneously, on any number of systems, by the licensed user. It's essentially the "steam" system. Logon from anywhere yourself, but don't share with a friend.
  17. Usually On, but sometimes I am not convinced it makes the sim look better. In fact sometimes it looks worse imo with low res pg and apocalyptic looking buildings.
  18. I leave it on, but seems it's hit or miss in terms of actually doing anything.
  19. Yes, I’m still using the magnets on my yoke and it’s working great. Maybe once a month I was needing to run a quick recalibration but doing flight control checks before taxi took care of any issues. I’m still very pleased with my fix. I even added one to the left side of the throttle quadrant because I found the spoiler/speed break was not going back to the full forward position without me pushing on the lever pretty heavily. With the magnet now as soon as it hits the forward stop the speed break/spoiler is retracted.. Thrustmaster has issues with these things. I closed out my last RMA ticket because I did not want to send it in again, but I told them how I fixed my problem and they thank me for the information.
  20. I live in a region in which they say "not included in photogrammetry". But I always tick it on
  21. Just curious mainly. I thought it might be causing some poor performance that seemed more server-side (good CPU/GPU/VRAM overhead) so I turned it if several months ago, and I have forgotten what I might be missing 🤪. I've always wondered how others use PG or not. Also, I've thought about adding some city enhancement packs that depend on PG being ON. Cheers and thanks for playing along 🛩️
  22. This is the one I use: https://flightsim.to/file/9900/no-handle-bar
  23. One of the many extraordinary aspects of MSFS is that you don't need hundreds of dollars of add-ons to make the scenery or weather or aircraft look great. You're good-to-go right from the start. Plus, the performance of MSFS is vastly superior to any previously-released sim.
  24. You don't. I just user another toolbar hiding add-on that is not that one, and all is good. I'll link it to you when I'm home later.
  25. Ed - Damien will correct me if I am wrong but I believe you can use ASFS on two systems but not at the same time. You "may" have to reactivate the specific device when you switch but not sure about that.
  26. Just a heads up. The OXRTK "Turbo Mode" setting can only be applied to Spatial Reprojection and is ignored for Space Warp (aka Motion Reprojection). Read all about it here.
