There is much more to see and model outside then inside. I always wonder why the 'easy' effort to model pizza 'boxes' and not apron clutter and such.

There are videos of the real effect, what is the same. Heck, I see it even in my cars headlights.

It works great, and very nice on the depiction. Thanks!

Mint just works, and is plug and play. Also, I dont care about a desktop, just installed mint with a default download, and voila, action. XPlane 12 works great, no stutters or whatsoever. I recently let someone build an PC, with AMD cpu and videocard. It uses the MESA drivers, and just work, no tuning whatsover needed. There isnt even any control panel at all. Use degoogled-chromium to get rid of the google spyware. Of course, no running MSFS. But other games run very well with Portproton, some even better (FO3 for example or ETS2) But, thats just my experience. Your milage may vary if you spend a lot of time at the desktop. Altough even for that I couldnt care less, but you have a ton of options for that in Linux, and zero in Windows. Mind, all is free!

I have Mint also, and it works great with xplane. Mind that not all utilities are for Linux, some are windows only.

Update works fine here.

Thanks, but those days are long gone!

Looks real! I made the correct choice. Xplane it is!

I just unzipped them straight into Custom Scenery, ran Xplane12, and let it make the .ini up to date. (on Linux) I didnt made symlinks, no need for me.

Dont know what you are doing. but I just extracted to custom scenery and it worked. No terminal at all. Modern linux barely let you need a terminal (Linux Mint)

FS9 still rocks!

Ah.. shucks..

Scolden no, but can you write a simple gauge that calls: - glideslope alive - glideslope captured - localizer alive - localizer captured - glideslope 100 above - glideslope 100 below - if more then 100 above or below a cal glideslope deviation - 80 knots - positive climb - passing 10000 feet You may use placeholders, I make my own wav files. :-)

Or a double afcad ?

Looks an unflyable stutterfest to me..

And then ? a copilot sitting there doing nothing ! Thats the biggest issue.. most developpers just let it raise the gear, and thats it. A bit help during an ILS approach would help, like calling out height, or when capture of deviating from it.

Indeed, Vatsim has nothing to do with it. (altough Dave may like it, I dont. Flew it in the past when it was SATCO, but the PC's werent strong enough to enjoy it. And I hate seeing deserted airports like I am in the Langoliers movie, and then listen to 14 year old kids playing ATC) The ATC.DLL needs FS9.1 update, and helps a lot. Together with AI Smooth it will solve your problems. ALSO, oversaturation of the radios due to way to many AI of course will always be problem number one.

Speeding up atc and ai talk with editvoicepack helps also. Faster responses. Less traffic of course helps also a lot. And, I use a modified atc.dll what doesnt constantly yell to anyone about climbing 100 feet, wat will saturate the radio, and thus atc. You can find it at calclassic.com forums here: http://calclassic.proboards.com/thread/4931/propliner-atc Works well for modern flying too!

Hear! Hear! Yes, very good! Best post.

In the Netherlands you have the rights to create panoramic views. Meaning you can make a picture of an airport. However, pictures of private property, behind a fence for example are not allowed. Creating pictures from within the fence you need approval. From the roadside, making a general picture is allowed. A general panoramic is just that.

I just looked at Google Earth and saw that there are more countries then only the US. :-) I believe in the real world there are such restrictions.

There migth be more.. Anyhow, I also now wonder if IVAO,VATSIM, and scenery creators have obtained the rights to: Use real livery artwork property of airlines Use models property design by aircraft manifacuters Use architectural rights on terminal constructions at airports Use of ground vehicles models, paintings, logo's etc etc.. Come on, ALL of the addon creators do copyright infringments.. can of worms!

I tested with Scansim Billund and PMDG747, and gave me on a certain view 25 fps. Stayed the same, paused of unpaused. There was no difference. (older type i5 cpu) Something is wrong on your PC I think. Dont know what.

Windows processing the updates in the background ? will take a lot of time before it settles down.
