PMDG 777 for MSFS 2024 fleet receives significant update.
It’s about bug fix for products already purchased. Clear indication that pmdg is just chasing new revenue stream via platform update. some here confuse good old-fashioned bug fix with new development.

PMDG 777 for MSFS 2024 fleet receives significant update.
according to the pmdg p.r. person, pmdg is not going to update any fs20 products to fix the old bugs (ex: weird FBW on the 777). no one is asking for new development or new products in fs20.

depends on what you think is important, so not really.

PMDG 777 for MSFS 2024 fleet receives significant update.
commercially dead is one thing, there are still existing customers who still prefer fs20 over fs24 that paid full price for fs20 737 and 777. pmdg said sound and other improvements were forthcoming last year but no more? and the argument that it's a super burden to support fs20 and fs24 at the same time is bs, others like fenix and tfdi are able to do it and the gauge code base not a rewrite. pmdg is simply fixated on future cashflow with a quasi-subscription business model. doesn't care about fs20 customers who already paid them. they talk about the '7xx product line' but in reality it's the fs24 product line.

real world sitting height is so misunderstood (pet peeve)
if you fly in VR you're always fixing the eyepoint to the realistic position in 3d space.

If your airplane mods do not work/load
yeah, nulling out the order hint value by renaming it with a 'x' prefix in the addon's manifest also allows mods to be loaded, but your method of setting the order hit value with 'custom_...' is a way cleaner method. thanks for the heads up.

fs2024 su3 vr center broken?
su4 still has the same vr recenter problem. the fix is to assign both 'vr center' and 'reset cockpit view' to one key so it does both in one press.

A2A updates incoming
unless the name of your company is pmdg.

inibuilds A350 LNAV really bad
Perhaps it’s the op’s MO as the name comes up often after operator errors.

DO NOT BUY Carenado Vintage C172 for MSFS 2020
Carenados can be buggy but still like the classic c337 and the newer c408 is excellent.

Would a Crystal Ultrawide be a waste with a RTX 4080?
kdfw__ replied to ryanbatc's topic in Virtual Reality (VR) for Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)Xtal super has eye tracking so it’s true foveated rendering.

kdfw__ replied to ryanbatc's topic in Virtual Reality (VR) for Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)fs2024 has forveated rendering support built in so running the xtal super should be ok with decent image quality and performance.

fs2024 su3 vr center broken?
this happens in ms store version of msfs2024. if the view in 2d isn't centered before entering vr, vr center will center to the 2d position right before entering vr. let's say enter vr and everything ok, then get out of vr for a while and look at things in 2d, then re-entering vr and centering will center to the 2d position. wasn't a bug in su2.

nvidia smooth motion for vr
NVIDIA Smooth Motion is a driver-based feature that generates interpolated frames to improve visual smoothness, especially in VR, by doubling the base framerate of a game. It's a technology designed to make gameplay appear smoother by filling in gaps between frames, similar to game-integrated DLSS Frame Generation, but it works at a driver level, meaning it generates frames for the entire scene. This driver-level approach can sometimes lead to artifacts or blurriness, especially on UI elements, compared to native frame generation. gave it a try and looks pretty good in vr--glass panel isn't blurry like dlss and can still use taa. artifact seems minimal compared to reprojection.

fs2024 su3 vr center broken?
so when i press a key for 'vr center' after entering vr from 2d, 'vr center' centers to the 2d view point prior to entering vr... how can this be after all those betas?

if not already done so, set off screen terrain precaching=ultra on the 5090.

MSFS2024 PMDG 777
probably the best chance for a better outcome would be if you take your complaints directly to the pmdg forum or file a ticket with them, instead of harping on this over and over again in a flight sim nerd's forum. or better yet, create your own c*u control law wrapper or develop your own 777 for msfs and show pmdg how it's done.

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

Fyi, TFDI just pushed an update for the MD11
no problems here with irs or fmc.

DLSS4 and Nvidia new driver 572.16

DLSS4 and Nvidia new driver 572.16
kdfw__ replied to Rene_Feijen's topic in Virtual Reality (VR) for Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)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.
