  1. Past hour
  2. Hey careful there! I’ll send Vader after you once we finish watching Friends with benefits. Yeah, who would’ve thought so, but Vader really likes rom-coms. I hate them, but I always reply with “as you wish my Lord” no matter how ludicrous his demands are…
  3. Keep an open mind for FBW A320nx. I was all Boeing for 25y and never Airbus myself until I was nudged to give it a try and I love it. It's a very well developed plane, superior documentation on every aspect, super nice electronic flight tablet and performs about the same as PMDG 73x. And bonus: it's free, and its installer is wonderful. It also installs FSLTL, the freeware air traffic addon I can also heartily recommend. For smaller jets I really like Aerosoft's CRJ700 as well and it's very easy on performance. Oh, and of course you can fly it with a yoke as desired.
  4. I'm not going to discuss this in detail, but I can assure you that 70 fps in very, very dense environment feel very, very smooth on my part. Did I mention the complete lack of microstutters?
  5. They have credit cards on the Executor? Can't you just threaten them with the wrath of Lord Vader and they'll give you the 146 for free?
  6. Voted to wait for traffic injection. I never understood what the point of ATC without it actually controlling traffic. Like without traffic, why bother with arrivals or departures? Why bother with airways for that matter, might as well go in a direct line between airports. Get your takeoff clearance right at the gate, save everyone the hassle. FSHud is probably the only one doing it right, as janky and robotic as it is at the moment. And I've tried a lot of them - pilot2atc, sayintentions, ProATC. Would be nice to have an actual competitor to that.
  7. Great screenies, P_7878. Interesting to know that there is also a Lake Geneva in the US 😉
  8. I thought the (Azurpoly) OV-10 was already out a couple of months ago. Am I thinking of a freeware OV-10?
  9. It will when they have fully implemented it, At the moment your not forced to use it as you have to download it, you can delete it.
  10. That is so strange. I too have a 7800X3D with a Gigabyte 4090, although I'm running a 4K display at 60hz -- and I do not have any tearing whatsoever with NVCP vsync on. Nor do I have any stutter below 60 fps. I run vsync ON in the NVCP, and off in the sim. Ultra settings with a TLOD fixed at 200. I am now running the DLSS Ultra Quality mode and find it looks about as sharp as TAA (I can't tell any difference). I did take @David Mills post to heart though, about TAA -- I think I did have my AMD sharpening higher than 70 and that might be why I had a bit of shimmer with TAA, that I don't have with DLSS Ultra Quality -- although I think I tested with sharpening one time and couldn't eliminate the TAA shimmer no matter how low I set sharpening. But I may (re)-experiment with TAA and lower sharpening settings too. On my rig TAA is pretty close to DLSS Ultra Quality too, in terms of performance and Image Quality (IQ) although I suspect that's because I can brute-force a lot with the 7800X3D doing its voodoo magic. If I turn off vsync then THAT'S when I get tearing and stuttering. I always thought the whole purpose of vsync was to prevent screen tearing and that is certainly true of my current setup. That is why it is so strange that you're getting tearing and stutter below 60 fps, although if you're turning off vsync and using a hard cap then I can see why you might get screen tearing. I ran a hard cap for a while too, but I couldn't dial out the tearing no matter what other settings I went with. On my system I am almost forced to use vsync to avoid tearing.
  11. Thanks Andreas, Yes, it's the F104G 😄😄
  12. Sounds fantastic.....IF ONLY it works as advertised.
  13. I'm sorry, but are you sure you are updated to the latest version (see website, public beta part)? I'm using P2ATC at least once a day for an IFR flight and again for many months it has vectored me perfectly, every single time. And also direct-tos have been working perfectly (except for direct-tos to an approach waypoint after/at the FAF, but those are instantly declined on my side, so no bug here), again, using them on almost every flight (gotta love those shortcuts).
  14. How about a separate P3D screenshot/video forum i.e. a media forum under the P3D Forums heading (and same for XPlane and other sims under their own headings) ? That way posting pics and vids don't have to go in what is essentually the MSFS screenshot forum... Times change, personally I'm about to update my phone and internet to 5G, better than the internet options otherwise available and cheaper too. And yes I've seen many posts disappear, some times right in front of my eyes including what seem to be innocuous postings, but hey when you have absolute power... Anyway these are my thoughts as a member.
  15. Last flight it gave vectors for me that completely missed the ILS, guessing they came late. Pretty sure the Altitude restriction issues have been for a STAR where you get differing altitudes depending on your runway. Fortunately it doesn't hassle you if you miss them 🤣. Oh and "direct-to" functionality is broken (again), as it gives you the direct and then reverts back to the original waypoint (you can see that in the log window!).. I still fly with it every flight, and even after BATC comes out I'll still be using it in p3d & XPlane. But it's far from perfect... G
  16. you're right, it was found online as an option, it's not my text, he probably mistyped it
  17. It doesn't take much longer if you turn to the base leg at 3-4NM. However, without filling out the FMC that would may be add two more minutes. Though it's on sale right now, and using it for training purposes seems doing it's job. WIll think about it.
  18. Good grief it’s only delay by a couple of weeks. Does it really matter in the scheme of things?
  19. AIG all the way. I tried FSLTL when it first came out and didn't see anything better than what I already had with AIG. The old interface was fine with me, so so I went right back.
  20. Today
  21. This hasn't happened to me for months. Vectors are spot on 100% of the time. Also no idea what altitude restrictions it should give, it only relies on those of the SID and STAR. Or do you mean the cleared altitudes?
  22. yes in the manager under option there is a check box if you want to install 2048 textures or not
  23. Hmmmm... Videos only been out a few hours?
  24. Heh…been there. Done that. Many times. Dupe. -B
