MS Flight Sim on a $5000 computer
I bought my first pc in the late 1980's it was a Mitac, don't recall if it was 386 or 486 processor, it had 4 mb (not gb) memory, ran on Dos 4 I think and cost £999. I bought an extra 4 mb memory for £150. Dread to total how much flight simming has cost me since. Mick Kevin . Content not viewable in the uk?

MSFS2024 Broadband Requirements
My speed just checked at 25.45mbps (copper cables in the sticks)and MSFS 2024 works fine although it obviously takes time to load in a new area, but next time in that area it is fairly quick to load. Push rolling cache up to 150GB to store the data. Turn Photogrammetry off. Hope that helps. Mick

I'm at Loss... less the scaling :-)
Yes it is, but for me worth it for the ease of use. For information. Tobii does not work with AMD FSR2.

MSFS 2024 servers overwhelmed in the UK?
For information: With my 24 mbps connection speed I do not have a problem and have not had a problem streaming either before the update or since the update so I would suspect there is something else causing your problem. Mick

What is the current VR of choice today for MSFS?
mickatmian replied to raymar's topic in Virtual Reality (VR) for Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)My choice too and for the price it is much better than I expected. I can read most of the cockpit gauges and only have to lean in for the small print. Have previously owned both the Rift and Rift s and for me the Pico 4 is twice the clarity of Rift s. One other point. I find the headset comfortable out of the box so for £300 it is a bargain. Be aware you do not necessarily need a 4090 graphics card but you do need a fast card for all of these headsets, in my case AMD 6900xt. Mick

Oh boy, something broke....
You may like to try the free Revo Uninstaller it will remove every reference to Tobii works well in my experience. Mick

LG 55" 4K TV for simming?
mickatmian replied to YukonPete's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcWhy would he be joking? 30hz works great on my 55" Samsung tv, smooth as silk and no stutters! Look at some of Rob Ainscough videos on you tube most are at 30hz. Can't help the op with the LG but if it does 30hz go for it. Mick

Are there any good REX4 water textures?
If there are any good ones I have not found them. Personally I use default P3d water. Mick

Spad or Saitek plugins
Forgot to say I run Windows 10 so can verify it works. The strange thing is my multi panel was working fine in win 10 but then failed completely ! not a Saitek fault but my own (the alt led failed and my attempt at a repair resulted in a new panel ! expensive lesson there) however the replacement refused to display the screen hence my use of the codeledgend file.

Spad or Saitek plugins
Just to add, This file Codelegend APME fix for Saitek panels from the Codelegend site works without the need to change the settings in device manager. Go to Codelegend.com scroll down to file, download and follow the included read_me, works as advertised. Mick

FSX minimizes to taskbar spontaneously
mickatmian replied to greg100o's topic in Video Hardware: Monitors | Multi-Monitors | Video Cards | Drivers etcHi Greg, I have the same problem with P3D. Hover over the task bar icon to open the small window move mouse to the X (close button) and right click, the minimize/maximize bar shows then click maximize works for me, but if anyone knows a better/permanent fix please share.

Weird joystick issue (not the one everyone else has) (FSX-SE)
Hi, The same thing happened to me yesterday (all control settings showing 0) but I am using P3D 3.2 so is it possibly a FSUIPC problem? I have recently updated FSUIPC to version 4.949h. Anyone else?. Mick

Night Environment British Isles
Orderd Night Environment British Isles and was expecting 1hr download. Downloading now from Aerosoft. Is it normal with Aerosoft for a 3GB download to take an estimated10 hrs on a fibre connection? Mick Disregard. It appears to be something wrong with my broadband connection.
