  1. ... just a matter of expectation and the way each of us use MSFS. Enjoy!
  2. End of last year, during the Beta, SI has no data at all of the taxi layout (even in US). I'm surprise it didn't seem to progress regarding pattern entry as errors you encountered were numerous at that time (in US). If you have a detailed handcrafted scenario and want to train your taxi skills (a flight ends when engine shuts down), SI gave you unreal clearance.
  3. Even in VFR, when ATC is giving you a surprising clearance (sometime really non-sense) it's a immersion killer. And you have the feeling to exchange prompt with chatgpt ending with the famous "oh I'm sorry and thank you for correcting me" ;(
  4. 99% of the time, I'm not using a VPN to increase (or make-it-work) download speed from MSFS architecture. But it solved me an issue when I was in an hotel with highspeed Internet (valid) but with awful speed access to MSFS servers. I just add to start a VPN to make it work. Another example during the Dune DLC launch with and without VPN :
  5. Unfortunately, it doesn’t match my 900+ IRL VFR hours experience flying in France and US. Of course, errors are human.But not the way it’s happened with this AI LLM playing ATC: stating totally non-sense clearance like providing a routing with taxiway names that don’t exist on their field, then recognizing « oh, you’re right I apologize& then shooting another clearance guess from whatever sources to make it credible… but no 🙂 Don’t misunderstand, I love these tech, I test it, I love ATC phraseology and it should be way better in MSFS. There are some immersion killing features for now. I can’t wait for the next competitor in this area.
  6. The well-known "oh you're right, I'm sorry for the confusion" is a symbol of all this AI affirming something totally wrong, then say the opposite and apologize. At least with all the public LLM you have the "check for mistake" warning 😉 It happened a lot during the Beta, clearing to runway that doesn't exist and giving taxi route based on default MSFS 😉
  7. Did the taxi clearance matched the real taxi layout of this airport or was it totally random as it was during the Beta? When I stopped being interested by SI (as a Beta tester), SI had no clue about what scenery you have installed, accurate or not, nor the real layout and relied on best guess (most of time totally non-sense). Did you try not to reply to any communication in flight to simulate you don't recognize your call sign? Last time, I did it, SI forgot me 😉
  8. Climbing out Marble Canyon (L41) a private but freely accessible airport inside the Grand Canyon National Park.
  9. Yes, a "Fuel Island" I guess it's going way easier than me who has zero skill in this. Blender is known as powerful but definitely not the easiest. But in 2024, Internet is full a learning resources. In your creator toolbox, a 2D paint tool is a must have as well as a vector tool like Inkspace.
  10. It's always cool to start a new project, isn't it? Let's go and let's try to build... a new Corona Muni (KAJO). The awful autogenerated building visible in the below picture will disappeared in few second and I will check if my draft Blender 3D Fuel Island fits in MSFS. There're cool material available online. The Corona Municipal airport is one among the few airport I know that are covered airside by Google Street View. See this post on AVSIM if you're interested: ... but also Bird Eyes View from Bing: My first raw draft (but my skill won't deliver much better 😉) in Blender should recreate something that will remind the Fuel Island. Help with an appropriate ground marking, it should be interesting. For the record, I was in touch with MojaveHigh regarding his now dead project of Corona available for years on flightsim.to. Wish me all the best 🙂
  11. Thank you to all for this interesting discussion. I fly exclusively the steam gauge version of the 172 and wasn’t capable to find an official source to check if this steam gauge version will benefit from the SU15 improved flight model or if it’s reserved to the G1000. Anyone has this info sourced ? TIA. PS: just see that weptburrito plan to release an update for the WB-SIM C172 just after the SU15 (source)
  12. Matt, there're thousands of small airports that worth to be improved in MSFS. Thanks for your help and can we stay on the original topic?
