  1. Past hour
  2. FSimStudios released a V2 version of their excellent (in my opinion) CYHZ Halifax Stanfield Intl airport. If you already own V1, it's a free upgrade (I was able to just uninstall V1 and install V2 in my Orbx Library). I haven't had a chance to log into the sim and check it out directly but here's what the blurb says is new in V2: Performance significantly optimized. New MSFS Techniques have been extensively used all across to update the airport to the new standards, ensuring smooth performance and consistent FPS. Improved terminal model, several areas have been remodeled and retextured, with crisp new PBR Materials. Improved Interior Model, highly detailed and accurate to March 2024. Interiors have been modeled utilizing MSFS Techniques for minimal performance impact. Glass materials all across the airport have been edited to make use of the stock Glass reflective materials for enhanced realism. All new Ground Polygon, highly detailed, making use of all-new materials and textures. New Taxiway N (by Runway 14) and Apron 3 (New Cargo Apron) modeled. New Cargo Terminal modeled in high detail. Custom Taxi Signs all around the airport. Improved night lighting all around the airport. Static Aircraft (GA and Airliners) and Detailed Interiors can now be removed through Scenery Configuration (ORBX and Contrail only) Improved static aircraft models. Improved GSE and Clutter vehicle models. Clutter and vehicles utilizing multiple LODs for improved performance. All new Jetway Models, utilizing high-resolution materials and modeled accurately to the type of jetways used in Halifax. Several Bugs Fixed Hoping to fly a few circuits in the pattern tonight after work.
  3. Full screen issue at start but not having the safe mode at start up. Not using the TDS GTNXi
  4. This level of proactive and engaging attitude is for me THE number one reason MSFS does so very well no doubts. Watching this kind of streams is music to my ear. Well deserved
  5. Yes, sorry, I must have just skipped over your post. I have edited mine now.
  6. Doesn't help. I don't know what's going on. I was just trying to use regular windows settings in the corner of the window and windows shows I am in full screen mode but MSFS shows I am in window mode. Don't know how to get all that working properly again.
  7. That was my question. Thanks. I hardly used the NG since I didn't stick with MSFS.
  8. Yes, highly recommended for any AI traffic tool. It massively improves AI separation and runway incursions and other immersion-breaking stuff. And - above all - it lets you manually force runways for landing and/or takeoff, effectively preventing any AI aircraft taking off right into your final approach because MSFS decided to change runways every 2 minutes in light wind situations.
  9. My first VR headset just showed up this morning and I'm licking my lips thinking about getting into this thing as a sight-seer!
  10. No misunderstanding. He states unequivocally May 7th. Thanks for finding that -B
  11. Try Alt-Enter. After one good session it should stick I think -B
  12. I thought I had read that the issue(s) with the above feature were fixed. I am in the Beta for SU15. However, when I go into General Options and select Full Screen and hit OK, my screen goes black for about 5-10 seconds and then the options screen appears again and the system has not switched to full screen mode. Thoughts???
  13. No offense taken. Not quite sure of your question though. You state you have the 700 for MSFS already and if you are asking if there is advantage to the other three (600,800,900) I would say no. They are all functionally identical with Features and Functions so if that is your question I would say no reason other than a desire to possess more 😎. -B
  14. What do I need a private preview for? MS told us all of the default planes will be payware quality and done by third party devs.
  15. I've noticed in the latest beta build that performance is great, but my GPU temps are spiking. Hopefully, whatever is causing my temps to spike will be fixed.
  16. Please don't take this as being antagonistic, just curious. Are there really any enhancements over the NGXu other then maybe sharper visuals? I use the NGXu more than any other aircraft in my very diverse hanger. I bought the 737NG-700 for MSFS when it first came out and really didn't see any reason to repurchase these PMDG aircraft for the third time. I'm retired and they are quite (to me) expensive. Have they really added anything else?
  17. He did say the 7th. I posted the link 2 posts above if people want to check.
  18. I tried that right in the beginning but it did not make much difference, maybe I should try it again.
  19. I know what you mean. I don't want to fly this aircraft. It's slow. It's a basic trainer. There's noting here for me...but, it's JF and I love JF. Must...resist...arrrgh
  20. Today
  21. What's the betting that SU16 will principally contain the stuff backported from 2024? I have my doubts that we'll ever see SU17 unless it's planned as a final bugfix version.
  22. I was a bit too quick to reply. I had forgotten that I have ORBX TE in those areas.
  23. Hi everyone. My question is whether I should use AIFLOW and AIGROUND when using AIG? Thanks ............. Rob
  24. Wow. I would say you're quite qualified to be objective. I certainly can accept your opinion. I'm sure others do too. I just see it differently for me.
