Hello, While I know 5.1 isn't fully operational with MSFS (some say yes, some say no, PMDG says no with their products..), I want to set up my rig to be able to decode 5.1 if/when available and I'm fine if I simply have to work with multichannel stereo if that's all I can get for now. I tried a SteelSeries Arena 9, and I'm not satisficed with the sound. I should have known this product would be woefully insufficient before purchasing, but that's on me (sound quality is only slightly better than a phone speaker with a sub added). I am now looking at the used AVR market to see I can get better results. I am trying to decide which features I must have to make this work while spending the least amount of cash. I can decide if optical, usb, ARC or eARC is the best connection method. Based on the following hardware, what do you think is the best way to connect this? Asus ROG Maximus XI Hero Asus TUF Gaming OC 3080TI LG 48" C1 OLED Right now the C1 is connected to the 3080TI via HDMI 2.1. Arena 9 is connected via USB to the mobo. Am I correct that I must get a receiver with eARC, connect the 3080ti to the receiver and then the receiver to the C1 or is there a better method to make this happen? Thanks for your help.

Nice Trailer. Accurate AI Traffic, Solid ATC, proper ground handling of AI, all Tropical water masks, and accurate weather radar that can be exported to third-party aircraft are must-haves on day one. Those are all things that should have been in 2000 from the beginning, and none of them exist four years later.

Same here. His tutorials were amazing, and he personally guided me through my first overclock over 10 years ago. RIP

Bijan vs Accuseason

Is Bijan's product the only one that shows runways in snowy conditions? -

I'm thinking about purchasing Accuseason. Is it still the best option for the foreseeable future? -
Someone needs to convince these guys to head over to MSFS. I'm actually surprised that they are still around. Great stuff back in the day. Their external models merged with a Paul Golding 2D panel was the way to go. Historic Jetliners Group

Thank you for this and for all of your work. What can we do to move this forward? I feel like we can make a difference if we act in a coordinated manner. IMO, there is zero chance that AS/MS will be able to implement models/liveries in a manner that would come close to what we have enjoyed in previous sims. There are simply too may liveries and too many models for any shop to create from scratch.

Did you try the method below? It seems like it is a requirement, and it is what fixed it for me. Like so much stuff with this sim, MS/AS has jest left us to figure out basic stuff on our own. By basic, I mean things like how to start the darn sim. I don't have an XBox or a previous XBox account so starting the sim through the XBox app was incredible intuitive. Of course, when you are used to creating games strictly for gamers, you assume that everyone has an XBox account and is accustomed to starting all their games through that app. They need to remember that some of the biggest hardcore FS fans are over 60 years old, and they should make assumptions like that.
