  1. Is there nothing on flightsim to covering this area?
  2. Thanks guys. I'm really getting a good feel for it now. I'm a lapsed PPL so pretty OK with standard phraseology. I mainly fly in the UK and Europe most of the time except when world updates arrive and I explore a bit wider. Is is all good for European flying (I note German restrictions)? Off to find a headset and mike tomorrow so will give it a whirl - is a good quality headset necessary or will I be OK with a cheapy?
  3. Thanks for the info guys and very quick responses. Looks like I need to take a look at the trial version then to get a better idea. Does it work OK with FSLTL? How big is the learning curve?
  4. I have been watching with interest the development of Beyond ATC, but whilst t it seems very good it is more geared to IFR and is quite expensive both for the initial purchase and ongoing premium use. However, after following this, I get the impression that Pilot2ATCmight be more appropriate for me as I mainly fly GA VFR. I don't have a headset or microphone yet so presumably will need to purchase these at the same time, but can anyone who uses it provide a bit of info to help me to understand how it works and it's pros, cons and limitations. E.g. how good is the voice recognition. I was considering using the basic version with out the subscription service. Does it work that way and is it any good without the subscription? Thanks for any info and feedback as this is a new direction I was thinking of enhancing my simming experience.
  5. That would have been my first thought. Glad you got it sorted 🤞
  6. To be fair, I've not come across anyone who has had issues related to not removin/renaming their community folder. Sometimes I remember and other tines I don't and I've never had any problems. I think MS suggest it to ensure that problems are not addon related rather than as a result of an update.
  7. All seems fine here after the update. Now just a case of finding the time to explore the Caribbean all over again. Looking forward to seeing those new watermasks.
  8. CTDs tend to happen more often in DX12, so this is quite odd. I would suggest that you clear your Nvidia caches. You might also want to clear any other caches such as rolling/manual caches if you use them (note that the Nvidia caches have recently been moved). Also run a disk cleanup in Windows for the sake of completeness.
  9. As the poster has not returned, I guess he realises that none of us are going to fall for it. Sadly, if it was genuine, there would likely be a lot of interest.
  10. Usually a server slowdown at your end or Microsoft's end. There have been some reports of ISPs restricting speeds in heavy downloads too. The PG is not great in some places anyway. Take a look at London if you want to see a really bad example. I've tried connecting through another part of the world where they are sleeping can help via VPN sometimes. Try using a rolling cache (though delete any old one first).
  11. Normally missing texture files or folder. Can be that the textures are not compatible with the current version of msfs and I believe DX12 compatibility may cause this too. Odd that it only happened after installing a new video card though. Perhaps a reinstall of the driver would fix or an older newer version. Clean up all remnants of the previous driver with DDS
  12. Very good question. There are 3 I am aware of and they are all very good. I'm finding it difficult to choose myself as they all have their pros and cons. I would be happy with any of them TBH though the LatinVFR one is quite old now (though still very good).
  13. This was an interesting thread before it went off track with pages of references to Star Wars. Whilst I do like Star Wars and the references were sometimes amusing, please could we get back on track with "which settings and addons seriously screw up your performance". Sorry if I'm being a party pooper 😀
  14. I have 16x set in game and in the Nvidia control panel. Maybe that is my problem. I'm not sure, but I think the problem may have become worse since I upgraded the dlss dll from stock up to v3.5.0 (3.5.1 was not a good option - can't remember why offhand). I live with it but would prefer it if I could fix it.
  15. I see them in numerous places and I'm not using Fenix (just a GA guy most of the time,).
