🤩 Stunning shot indeed Steve!

Great shots Steve! Have to agree with your comments about @robert young's aircraft. It is by far my favorite as well. Currently on a Caribbean tour with this beauty.

I'm with Steve on this one. Insta buy if they can simulate the person being blown, rolling down the sand directly into the waiting sea! 🤣

Didn't see this before I posted. Mods if you want to merge topics, feel free.

Me thinks patch is Live!

Alleged LOD/Draw Distance issues still being investigated. MSFS Dev team not able to replicate. I should add, I have not experienced this issue either. I'm just reporting what the Devs are talking about.

Agree! He seems very comfortable explaining the intricacies with FBW aircraft and their interaction within the sim.

Good news about KATL and KDFW being overhauled for the sim. Fantastic news about another Bush Trip, specifically an Alaska Bush Trip.

Yeah, sorry about that. Here's the main excerpt from the forum post: Re: Warning for Navigraph beta with A320neo Mod ? Report this post Quote Post by Pleasure » Thu Oct 15, 2020 9:06 pm Hello, my name is David "Pleasure" I am one of the Core Devs of the FlyByWire A32NX Project. During the first weeks of the project, we received various reports of missing nav data (SID’s/STAR’S/Airways). Due to these reports, we released a statement issuing that ‘custom liveries’ and ‘the Navigraph beta’ might have been leading to these issues. While we have verified that certain liveries do actually cause issues, we have never confirmed that the Navigraph beta was causing this behaviour. The statement will be removed and instead will be replaced with a statement which actually promotes the use of NavData from Navigraph as the data is more accurate and has more coverage. It will also be pointed out that the Navigraph NavData for MSFS is still in beta. Many of us use Navigraph for NavData and we appreciate your service to the flight sim community very much, our intention was never to throw blame but to rather tell our users to remove all third party addons which might be intervening with the mod, which could have included the Navigraph beta, to be able to check if it was actually the mod that caused the bug/issue or some other third party. We do understand that while some data might be missing/not working and it is still a work in progress that when it is completed, will result in a great increase in the overall MSFS experience for us ‘simmers’ who like the maximum amount of realism which is what we are striving for here at FlyByWire That is why we would love to work together with you at Navigraph and would love to invite you to our Discord or any other form of Communication you would prefer.

I can't express how glad I am to see @Pleasure reach out to you and the response from @Stephen. This IS how a company and a free mod community should behave - trying to help each other to the ultimate benefit of the users. I am excited and will wait patiently for your cooperation to come to fruition. All the best to both of you and the people you represent. Thank you.

Because of the issue you posted we now can say that we started to form a good relationship with navigraph and hopefully will support eachother and with the help of navigraph include features like maybe displaying the airac cycle and maybe even charts inside the plane on the EFB for navigraph users in the future. Mind you that of course this is a goal that we have but are not sure how feasible it is yet. But we are in talks with navigraph and are making progress on being able to change the default a320 model. So stay tuned ! And thank you Raniel for actually making this even possible. And also thanks to Richard who we are in contact with now and hopefully will make the sim enjoyable for everyone.

Report this post Quote Post by navdata » Mon Oct 19, 2020 10:06 am Hi Bjorn, since last week, we are intensively in contact with FBW - the data are working but in the past, specially as we started our beta, there were a lot of bugs, unknown situations in it, what crashed the sim and/or some mods or where the results were not so good as we expected (because we can also not test all scenarios). Most of these beginner issues were data-issues which we had fixed during the AIRAC cycle 2010, I guess after 12-13 data revisions. Now, the data are stable and of course usefully to fly with the FBW. I have also tested it and this mod, this freeware group, is a really step forward. We have discovered a few ideas between FBW and us. The FBW guys are very taff and for a freeware team, they do a great job - we (as Navigraph) will support these guys where we can, to improve the default A320neo functionality. Now, we are on a good way to make all these successful - for FBW and for us

@airlinejets Thanks for pointing me to that topic. Great read and certainly encouraging.

Agree.

Just wanted to point out how fantastic it is to see how a thread can seemingly turn sour, but end on a great collaborative note. Something we don't see much of lately. Our hobby will undoubtedly be better because of it. https://forum.navigraph.com/viewtopic.php?f=14&t=10830

^^^^^ This right here. Works wonders!

Here is a pretty good tutorial. Also make sure you are not using the “highonnow” glass cockpit mod (can’t remember the exact name), as it interferes with loading flight plans.

Thanks Simeon!

Been meaning to upload these for a bit. Shots from each of the Bush Trips, which by the way are very enjoyable if you have not done them yet. Wish there were more or at least a mission creator to make our own and share them with the community. The last pic being from a random TBM trip out of Monterey.

I suspect many of the folks having issues have not really sat down and optimized their systems. Not just talking about overclocking or making sure you have enough RAM, but validating what ever OS they are using truly have no errors. Couple that with poor network connectivity, multiple tweaks that they've long forgot about. The list is long I'm sure.

Not at all. Great topic. I felt/feel the same way. Loved P3D, but I'm spoiled now.

Bought it yesterday and immediately did a flight from Burbank into Denver. I agree with Steve, seems there may be an underlying issue with your settings or system.

Windows Key + Print Screen key within MSFS2020 or if you have an NVIDIA Graphics Card, download NVIDIA Experience and use it's internal screen capture tool via the ALT + F1 function.

I forget how I found this area within the sim (ICAO: SCLD) but did a quick flight this morning to try out NVIDIA's capture function. Ended up having a sort of a visceral experience, especially when you decide to land somewhere random, shut down the engine and just listen to the surroundings. Oh and the shots were not half bad either. Shots 5 and 6 are my favorite.

So it actually creates a sub-folder called screenshots in the Pictures folder for Windows. it does create a new image each time the key combo is used. Unfortunately not near my computer to verify what file type was used.

Anytime Tony!
