Is there an exe.xml for fs24 where I can add the autofps app so it launches with the game/sim?

no problems here with irs or fmc.

Preset k works good for dcs, clear.

for clarity, mfs2020 taa is still king, getting ~38fps flying over some country in germany. dlss quality is around ~38fps as well, but moving digits not as sharp or ghosty. balanced setting 10% better but blurrier but not super bad. i'm sure when i upgrade to a 5090 rig it will all look and perform better.

preset k with the new dlss still gives blurry speed/alt digits on MFDs in my vr setup.

Seems you’re trying hard to create drama. let it go and let the dev focus on fixing items already identified on the interweb.

VR-wise, aside from the mouse pointer not in sync between left and right cameras and no in-EFB keyboard, it works fine for me. glad they finally fixed the navigraph login issue. It is a very good model of the md11.

Don’t know about soulless but annoying that a simple quality of life patch for saving navigraph login hasn’t been done. Even freeware models have this.

too much change all at once, so what was learned and fixed for mfs2020 got lost and it's back to bug fixing all over again. should've kept more of the same underlying sw framework, including the gui (just add gui wrapper for console users) and provided an option for not going full-on thin client model for pc users. i would've paid the same for a simple upgrade of the visuals/rendering and bolting on the career mode to mfs2020. and even going to a subscription model if steady revenue stream is what's needed to make flight simulation a commercially viable for ms. mfs2024 so far: instability/ctd, vr performance=bad.

xmas sale $5 on ms mktplace, can't beat that. surprisingly good model with the solid wt g1000.

they certainly can be edited since the streamed assets are placed on the client side drive prior to launching the flight. however, if the streamed assets are asobo-encrypted, then only certain files can be edited, which severely limits the scope of mods that can be done (.cfg files are all locked). vfs projection tool in dev mode shows what's been streamed and stored. this is why modders are again asking asobo not to encrypt default planes for fs24 (same merry go round for fs20). here's an example:https://flightsim.to/file/85336/mfs2024-asobo-b737-max-lighting-mod as for the original topic, Robert is correct--fs20 saved flight sim from certain decline and demise of 3rd party hifi payware devs. p3d point releases were horrible (dark cockpits? waffle clouds? awful textures? horrible performance?), stale 3rd party echosystem coupled with an aging user base that ensured economic irrelevance. fs24 didn't seem to incorporate any learning from fs20 (same old bugs all over again) so it will take time to sort out, but hopeful for the day when it can replace fs20. flying dcs is fun but would've missed flying the glorious tubeliners and interesting ga planes had civ flight sim withered away. fs20 saved flight sim.

oops.

don't get it. he seems like a reasonable bloke who took his hobby and turned it into a job and employment for his team. didn't see horns or a tail so maybe he's not the devil incarnate as the usual suspects here paint him to be.

hmmm, who keeps coming back here whenever the topic is 'pmdg' and keeps making bombastic statements--essentially an 'overplayed broken record?' btw, all pmdg 737 models are 30% off over on msfs marketplace, 736 $25, 737 $49, 738 $49, 739 $35. ain't bad.

bias against the new sim??? the new sim regressed from the previous version in all aspects, save for ground handling and some lighting. after 4 years of bug fixes and we're starting all over again on this merry go round. even dev tools are in worse shape than the previous version, which kinda explains the state of the buggy default planes and lack of quality control prior to rtm.
