  1. Past hour
  2. 120Hz, native 30fps x 2 = 60fpsFG, RTSS front edge sync, G-Sync I had it at 100 which I think is default then moved it to 200 a good while back as I thought it made image quality sharper and never gave it a 2nd thought. I tried it on and off a couple of times in a couple of scenarios today and clearly 200 make these artifacts worsen. Maybe 100 is okay I will check. I just restarted MSFS and did a quick acid test at KDEN aiming east shortly after sunrise in clear skies in the PMDG 738 and see if it's still good: pretty good flicker out the side but better than w/ AMD FidelityFX at 200! That type of lighting brings it out the most but easy enough to make anything else active and the flicker disappears. For example I can click on my 2nd screen, or any app that can steal the show in front of MSFS will stop the flicker and it's softened enough to where only the worst lighting brings it out, and the glass cockpit and FMC are solid now. It is very nice to put the base rate all the way down to 30 this really gives some headroom and it shows in terms of freedom from even rare stutters. And CPU temps stays nice as well. Cheers
  3. Stop being an internet forum jerk. These personal attacks are just a waste of time for everyone else. Comment on the subject of the thread or just don't comment.
  4. That's an odd problem to have, but I'm afraid you're doomed to continue to suffer then.
  5. Why do I care because I care you are the pilot and I am end the passenger and depend on your flying experience to get me to point A to Be that is why I care. But you never told Avsim who you are. That's my problem.
  6. Haha - I was hoping for 42kts but arrived a bit too late! I tend to test everything to the limits, including my own capabilities 😜 In the previous flight I actually committed virtual suicide in the Aleutian Islands in the Turbo Arrow as I got lost in IMC low vis in icing conditions and lost visual contact with the airport. The only available navaid was an NBD station, but I didn’t get a signal… so I was flying around aimlessly in the fog with ice building up on the windshield… I’ll keep the screenshot limit in mind.
  7. I don't understand your point here... I work for neither Boeing nor Airbus, and never claimed to? As it was my airline that experienced the door plug failure, I've followed the situation... But I know very little that isn't already public knowledge. The NTSB discussed the commonality of this part in one of their daily briefings during week one. It's easy enough to see the existence of *A* door plug on these other aircraft just by looking at them; an operable door will always have an external handle; the plugs do not. But yes, it was confirmed in week one that the plug fastening system is exactly the same in these other aircraft. Why would someone need to be an engineer, or work for a manufacturer, to know this? Why would it surprise you that someone knows this about airplanes they fly? And really, why do you care?
  8. So you work for Boeing and Airbus at the same time show the people your expreirnces'. Show us your fly experience. Make a Youtube video Post on Avsin and waste time from rwf to post to and post rwf and showboating It's on AVsim. hard to believe. well not really
  9. Today
  10. Well all right... As your "belief" has exactly zero impact on my life, I'll, uh... Try to cope with it, I guess. 😁 Obviously, in the information age, it's not hard to find this stuff out though. Here's just one article specifying the existence of the same plug on -900ERs and -321s. https://simpleflying.com/aircraft-door-plugs-guide/
  11. Really nice stuff guys. One caution on screenshots though, a few in a post are fine but if you are going to post a bunch of them, put then in the screenshot forum and link in post. We have a lot of users who access from mobile devices and scrolling through 6 or 7 screenshots can be tedious. Pllease keep posting the videos and screenshots, they are really informative. And Capt_Piett - a 36kt crosswind in a TBM 900? Are you suicidal? Max cw component is 20kts , it's possible that tutb was justified. 🙂
  12. Bottom line I have no clue you are a real pilot ((737) or a engineer what you do on Avsim. Not good to believe on the internet. RWP usually don't hang on internet forums.
  13. I'm not sure you need to be an engineer to recognize that empty holes where fasteners should be just *might* be the reason a component separates? But as a pilot, sure, I know when a component is used across multiple aircraft types that I fly, and even some I don't. That exact plug door, with the exact fastening system, is on thousands of NGs and other Boeings, as well as many Airbuses. 🤷‍♂️
  14. Flick1 - thank you for the suggestion. I ended up picking up the Just Flight models and am using them now for the CRJ’s instead of the AIG models. Just as you indicated, these models are performing better with proper ground contact both parked and when live.
  15. The only thing that I can think of is that FG is disabled whenever MSFS is not in focus. Not sure if that’s the case in your scenario though. Wow, I really hope it stays that way as you’ve had your share of these annoying issues. Fingers crossed. Btw I’ve always had the sharpening slider on 100. And I voted option #1.
  16. Unfortunately, you're absolutely right. EtA: Pretty much the same conclusion. 😞
  17. Hmmm... Not sure it is ok. I fly with my son and he's on a later version with everyone else and we can't see each other on multiplayer. Of course, maybe that issue is something else and we assumed it was a version problem incorrectly but why would some people be on a different version? He uses the standard version and I use the Premium Deluxe so maybe that explains the version difference. But... Why the problem of us not being able to see each other in MultiPlayer?
  18. There's no canopy - it's just a model for painting.
  19. I'm sure it was what you suggested, but everything is working perfectly now. Thanks so much for the quick response and help!
  20. So you are a 737 Captain or a Boeing engineer.? I confused here.
  21. -900 models of the NG have had those exact same door plugs for years. As have other Boeings and even some Airbuses. Anything can fall off if the manufacturer never bolts it on.
  22. Yes... I'm sure HiFi will continue to refine things, but the turbulence in that video was CRAZY! But it was just as crazy with default. Btw turb set to realistic in the sim + I'm using realistic mode in ASFS with only transition and interval tuned manually. In the video I did not have enough rudder authority in the TBM to keep the aircraft aligned with the runway. But... 36kts... Haha, I promise not to post anything until you wake up 😁 Me too! Great discussions in this thread. EDIT: So far I’ve had it set to 5K including around 2hr flight time with the latest beta. Not sure if I should change the setting based on the changes…
  23. OMG! I am a little hesitant to celebrate because I had this happen once before, one of those rare times when the artifacts described are must less intense. But...I realized when I put RTX4090 into the box I failed to change a setting in MSFS that I had been using forever: AMD FidelityFX Sharpening. I had it set on 200! I set it to 0, and voila, much improved artifacts! Not outright gone, but I can now honestly vote in this survey option #1: Yes, I experience some artifacts but never find them bad enough to avoid using FG outright. Sorry to drag others into this I just failed to realize it could be an issue because it wasn't with the 3080Ti for the past years and it really was not on my radar, obviously. Anyway, having a lovely fly from EHAM > LFLL and enjoying the solid 60fps and nary an artifact the entire flight, including in the glass cockpit and FMC. It is now very close to native. As a side note I installed DLSS 3.7 but that had no effect on artifacts.
  24. Sorry for 2 posts so close but you had to post that JUST as I was quitting for the night? 🌃😁 Yes.. That first one DID make for a crazy replay 👀 One thing I've noticed is that before asfs every take off from single piston to jetliner took excessive rudder just to keep even close to center line but now.. Just like it used to be in older sims? Mentioned it as you had rather excessive low altitude turbulence there.. Not same as crosswind but.. Reminded me of it. Complicated subject. I'm loving it 😍
  25. On an earlier flight today (also latest beta), I noticed the considerable difference in how stratus layers are depicted by ASFS vs default. ASFS: Default: IMHO the ASFS depiction is much more realistic. Also, during the last couple of flights, I've been thinking about how ASFS determines the cloud tops when there's no METAR info on this. The condition "tab" showed this on my last flight from Hobart to Flinders Island: YMLT Launceston @POS 232140Z 17015G25KT 9999 BKN030 BKN134 08/02 Q1012 RMK AS DEPICTED BKN030 extends to:8000 feet (Cloud type:CU, Turbulence:Heavy) BKN134 extends to:18456 feet (Cloud type:CU, Turbulence:Heavy) FEW404 extends to:43912 feet (Cloud type:CI, Turbulence:None) I thought the resulting cloudscape seemed quite convincing, with what I *think* was a high altitude cirrus layer: I think I was above FL200 when I took the screenshot, if I remember correctly. At least I was above this layer: BKN134 extends to:18456 feet (Cloud type:CU, Turbulence:Heavy) One more thing: on all the flights so far I’ve barely seen any transitions.
