Thanks for the reply. After all I think I've found a solution that cured it for me - I disabled the hardware acceleration in MS Edge. Since then Alt-tabbing doesn't make my MSFS2024 freeze.

Hi, have you found a solution to this? I have the same issue.

Hi, you've probably sorted it out but for anyone else wondering how to install PacSim RKSI from the installer if you don't have MSFS2020 installed anymore. You need to fake MSFS2020 install, then the installer works. Faking installation of the simulator - Contrail Support Portal

Why are you guys still bit*ing "I hope they are working on the fix"? I am pretty sure that HiFi are working hard on it.

No questions? :( Oh, it must be you then who can determine what's good and what's bad! Only a handful accepted FSX? B) Comparing FSX to Vista... Well done :( I like Vista and I love FSX. I would never go back to the oldies XP and FS9, so "face it" but keep us informed what's good and what's bad! :(

If you mean that terrain file etc. then I fear it's gone...

I guess you should try to buy the MD-11. This happens with pirated copies...

Ok, I reproduced the problem and I am attaching the log files.Marek

Hi, I sometimes experience the same with the interim beta version:See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.************** Exception

However, this is only one bug I have found in ASA. Everything else works fine (the beta version fixed my connection problem /no connection/ after launching FSX) and thank you HiFi for the awesome addon!!!Marek

I agree with you, SK-1323,it would be great but I doubt that's going to happen. With that new version of MSFS it will be the same situation as now with FS9 vs. FSX. At the time of its release there will be no addon for it, no PMDG aircraft, nothing. Do you think that everyone will immediately throw his FS9 or FSX away? I don't think so. We will hold a similar discussion like this. By the way, why some FS9 users argument that today's hardware can't fly FSX MAXED OUT? Is that so important? I fly with above average details and it still looks better than FS9 and I achieve suitable FPS for me. FSX still has a potential and when I get a better machine next year, I will put the sliders more to the right. I love FSX (as I loved FS9) and I guess I'm not alone. Some FS9 users just can't understand why some people like something they consider to be a crap.

A little bit arrogant but whatever... The numbers don't lie, that's true but only FS9 lovers like you can't understand that this forum and any poll here can never represent all MSFS users. How many of them buy PMDG addon's and visit this forum? Please tell me the "number that doesn't lie"... I just looked at the simflight poll and FS9 44% / FSX 40%. Not bad for 2 YEARS 2 MONTHS old sim. I bet FSX will have a bigger rate next year as today's high-end PC hardware gets cheaper and that's a trend you can't stop with any numbers :-)

I agree. Pure FSX was a disaster and they should have tested it more before the release. But now, with SP2, no problems on my side.

Czesc Rafal,I know that I cannot apply that to all FS9 users. Most FS9 users have some logical reasons for sticking with the older MSFS version and I fully understand them (FSX is too demanding on expensive high-end PC hardware; they have tons of addon's for FS9 and invested too much money to just throw it away now; FSX does not bring anything new for them and they don't care about the visual benefits of it much either etc.) but this opinion that FS9 is more "serious" simulator is just beyond me. ACES have ADDED features to FSX, they have not REMOVED them, so such a statement seems like an ungrounded nonsense to me.Marek

I just love these posts. Their only purpose is to start another flame-war between FS9 and FSX. Hey erjpilot, can you list some thoughts for such a statement? Or is it just because YOU still use FS9, so it must be better?The funniest thought around the flightsim world is without any doubt that FS9 is a professional simulation for professional pilots and FSX is just a game because it has only better graphics. Hmm, funny. Then, according to this logic, FS2002 was more professional than FS9, FS2000 was more professional than FS2002 etc. etc. Isn't the better graphics one of the reasons why ACES develop a new version of the flight sim? Isn't the better graphics good for making the simulation even closer to reality?What extra for the professionals does FS9 have, erjpilot? FSX has the same features plus it improves them. Maybe PMDG developers could tell us what FSX brings to them during an aircraft development. So tell me, FS9 users, why do you think that FS9 is more professional?? I would like to know because two years ago I left the hard-core flightsim world and joined "stupid" gamers...Regards, Marek

Jim,that's absolutely cruel from you guys! :(
