    Except they didn't. Unlike any other simulator or game on this planet, they actually allowed the base platform to be sold for both professional and entertainment use, which allowed Prepar3D to happen. So playing that old violin shows you don't know how good you had it.

    This is uh....odd. So a new(er) program? No details at all?

    I looked at the CPU load with AS running this morning, 0.2%...

    So there you go. Having tried unsuccessfully a number of times and over a few days, including this morning, I repeated my boot up sequence again just...and it's connected! MSFS and Pilot2ATC move in mysterious ways! If it starts playing up again, I'll repost - but otherwise assume it has sorted itself somehow...

    I found my mistake. I've mistyped the txt file. It is working now

    Any sim developer can pull the plug at anytime. Y'all need to get over that PTSD because MS gave y'all 27 nonstop years of support before they pulled the plug but that part is always forgotten. Why can't we be optimistic enough to think at least of the next 24 years for a revival of the franchise that is currently making more money than it ever did?

    I think Asobo’s SFO is of such poor quality that I doubt I’ll fly there until there’s a payware option. Been spoiled with great 3rd party addons which keeps getting better. Currently got only KSAN, KLAX and KPSP and the west coast, so that’s where I fly. Also got KLAS which is not far away.

    Wow that's next level stuff

    Good summation! It doesn't have to appeal to everyone. I'm still not sure if I'm going to buy it, though it's good that there's the option for other people if it meets their wants.

    I was very close. Don't do this in real life. 😆 Maybe half a mile. I wasn't able to counteract the roll rate induced by the wake turbulence.

    @Donka @zorro747 Thank you very much for your recommendations!

    1. This is all about your own personal comfort and needs - but yes most people opt for a more comfy headstrap but this can add up with all the various ones you'll find out there to try so first just spend a good amount of time watching videos about them before deciding on 1 or 2 t test out. The other thing which I feel is VERY important to purchase would be a large external battery pack that you would plug into your Quest 3 while you are using it so that you can play for longer periods before having to recharge. The Quest 3 has terrible battery life, especially when playing msfs2020. Youll only get maybe an hour or 90 minutes tops out of the Quest 3 built-in battery...so while you're sitting there in your chair playing you'll want to have an external battery plugged into the headset that will at least double or better your time before needing to shut down and recharge. While there are all sorts of external battery products you can try I prefer one that has alot of mAh (milliamp hours) because the higher that number is the longer the battery will go before needing recharging. Personally I use this battery: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07XRJZXKY/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_search_asin_title?ie=UTF8&psc=1 which gives me about 4 hours of playtime (it has about 26,000mAh). I place it inside a fanny pack that I wear on a belt around my waste before sitting down (I can also wear it standing up for other games; hence the belted fanny pack idea). Here's a link to my fanny pack: Amazon.com: USHAKE Running Belt with Extender Belt, Bounce Free Pouch Bag, Fanny Pack Workout Belt Sports Waist Pack for Apple iPhone Samsung Note Galaxy in Running Walking Cycling-05BK : Sports & Outdoors I also just started using the BoboVR S3 Pro strap/w B100 battery pack. This is a Halo style headstrap with battery and you can buy extra batteries for it, if you like. I think ach battery is 10,000mAh and will give you maybe 2 hours of sim time plus however long the Q3 battery lasts after that (another 1 hour likely)...so thats maybe 3 hours total sim time with only 1 b100 batt. 2. I use either clear or prescription lens covers from Zenni Optical which easily fit over the Quest3 panacake lenses, and these are what Im actually wiping before/after each use. I simply use a good quality eye glass or digital glass microfiber cloth. I breathe on the lens to add a bit of moisture then wipe. You can also buy a soft padded lens protector that you can place over the lenses for when not in use to protect it from getting scratches and also to make sure that no direct sunlight gets to the lenses when not in use.

    I wouldn't compare light DA20 with multiengine aircraft! LOL It's like you only flown Cessna 172 and try access how would 414 would fly
  17. pete_auau
    ok there is a post in the hi fi forum where a user had this addon and it didnt inject the weather in, he deleted it and now how the correct weather in msfs
  18. CarlosF
    Even if they did, you cannot deny what they have accomplished in such a short time so Kudos to MS and Asobo.
  19. Fiorentoni
    That's great to hear! I mean sorry for your C172, of course 😉 How much was the distance to the A320? Right behind the engines or the typical 3 NM separation?
  20. Fiorentoni
    Of course, why not? Weather has nothing to do with what AutoFPS does. AutoFPS does change cloud quality, but that's a graphics setting and has nothing to do with the actual weather.
  21. Fiorentoni
    As always: It depends 🙂 I'd say it's worth it if... 1) You want historical weather or 2) You're tired of the same old cloud types in default MSFS or 3) you want "active air effects" (4 typesof turbulences, thermals etc.) or 4) You want to see (thunder)storms depicted correctly or 5) You want weather that's to the point correct to any real life METAR (live or historical), especially important for IFR flights and 6) You can live with the fact that you will not see distant weather fronts anymore (as in MSFS default), because AS injects globally
  22. Bobsk8
    Yes, auto FPS just adjusts two item TLOD, and OLOD. Nothing to do with weather. If you FPS goes into the dumpster, you can set Auto FPS to reduce Clouds to improve FPS.

    Perhaps, but only for a subset of users. Has anyone identified a common reason? BTW, the reversion to windowed mode on startup is a known problem that impacts everyone. I recall reading somewhere that a fix was in the works for SU15. The workaround is alt-ENTER to switch to full screen. Have a great weekend everyone.
  24. Paul K
    I think you mean pessimistic, don't you ?
  25. Shrek1970
    Does it work with the Autofps app?
  26. andy1252
    Thanks John! Maybe I should start a tour operator company! Cheers Andreas! The heli is the KA-10m, from Touching Cloud, and comes with a free Carrier Group! I got mine via the Marketplace, but it might be on their own website as well. Thanks PMP, glad you enjoyed them! Cheers Bernd! And no, I don't usually do night time stuff, but had a couple of trips lately where I've gotten some nice shots out of them. This set, the evening just crept up on me though. I'd left the sim on active pause for a bit while I had to deal with something else and the sun started to go down and I thought it looked rather nice so just went with it. I'll probably experiment some more with such settings, but as you say, in most cases you just can't see much!
  27. Bam2000
    Hey, sadly Pilot2ATC still uses the Flight Number as a callsign, instead of the Entry in the ATC Callsign field from simbrief? Can you fix that? Thanks

  29. albar965
    Sorry, took a while. Here is a 3.0.7.rc1: https://k00.fr/ca0o2ubp Tested a bunch of plans with the latest MSFS beta and even complex plans load without issues. Alex
