    Not that the members of this forum represent the entire FlightSim community....but a quick show of hands here at Avsim (and who reads this) of who's buying the FSL Concorde for P3d.   I'll start:

    No  

    P3D - no, MSFS - a resounding YES!

    I uninstalled P3D 5.3 in Nov. '21 and have no intention of re-installing. Some people have speculated that FSLabs could do a "PMDG NGXu" thingy (buy for P3D when released, get the MSFS version heavily discounted), but even if I would be more than happy to support FSLabs, I do not want to artificially "inflate" the perceived number of P3D users.

    Vague? Possibly.

    Not really, if you read this part:

    Please note that the Marketplace verification process may take some extra time. The good news is that both Dublin v2 and Philadelphia are being verified now so we hope to release them soon."

    Clearly a reference to the MSFS Marketplace.

    This ability to communicate is something that is learnt in reputable airlines when going through cockpit crew training (CRM): you can (1) guide and rectify respectfully or (2) tell your flying partner off when a mistake is done, the resulting difference between the two attitudes can be guessed. In a distant past Captains were behaving in the second mode showing off their wealth of knowledge to the rookie sitting on the right, nowadays, the first mode is generally adopted.

    It is most unfortunate that we seem to be unable to communicate in a less agressive and arrogant way at a time when communication vectors are so prevalent in our daily lives. What could be pleasant and fun rapidly becomes nasty and sour.

    I see what you did there Bernard 😉 - well done! Kudos to you for a fine post.

    I am even tempted to try it too 🙂

    Wondering how you’ll do that, given that you wrote this 2 days ago in the P2D forum:

    ”I've been in MFS, and I even erased my MS account associated with it's acquisition... I'm eagerly waiting for Pd3 v6 and also further developments of specific platforms like Condorsoaring and Airlinetools A32x.

    Of course, I am betting on HiFiTech and at least FSLabs and Majestic to upfate their addons for P3D v6.”

    - or maybe you had an “agenda” 😉

    I'll be 71 in May and I'm scheduled to have both eyes done on 6. April.

    A recent visit to my optician revealed that I had early stages of cataract in both eyes and there was really no change required for the prescriptive lenses since my previous visit. Even though the cataract has no serious influence on my eyesight yet ...

    I'm quoting myself here to show how wrong I was 🙂 about the cataract. The original 6 April appointment had to be cancelled the evening before since the clinic discovered that one of the lenses they'd received was not correct.

    So yesterday morning I had both eyes done and as it turned out the cataract had indeed affected me more than I thought. My view of the world went from dull pastel colours to vibrant oil painting - truly amazing. And although it'll probably take a few days more before the brain has adjusted to the new situation, my long-distance, mid and near vision is razor sharp. Only close-up, like reading on the phone etc., will probably need some help - we'll see.

    I'm perfectly happy.

    while game main core is nearly exhausted at 90%, while other cores run at only 20% load.

    statistics like "33% overall CPU load" don't mean anything in a multicore CPU when core loads are spread so unevenly as in MSFS.

     

    Depends very much on OS / Hardware combination. My 8 Performance cores all run more or less at same load thanks to the Win 11 Thread Manager/Scheduler, no such thing as a "main core" here.

    I’m going to check again today because I’ve done this in the past and have never seen a single core at 90 plus percent. If anything the core usage seems to be pretty balanced on my rig, not sure if that is a Win 11 optimization with the newer CPU’s. 
     

    Exactly - Win 11 combined with 12th/13th gen Intel CPUs work like that.

    I don't use Discord, nor do I use FaceBook or any other similar Social Media channels, so, a product has either a Web Forum or a Ticketing system, or even an email-based support or is a No-Go for me 😕

    Since I love Airbuses and the Fenix looks like a rather promising simulation, I opened an exception...

    But …. They DO have a ticketing system. Access from Dashboard/Support.
