Weird top-down view after update
armchair_pilot replied to haskell's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Same issue here, without any tweaks or addons, everything is vanilla. Completely unusable after the latest patch, even after restarting the sim. -
This is great news. I am quite confident in what they are doing, but why do I smell that future world updates (regional updates with some handcrafted airports, landmarks etc) will be sold as DLC? Certainly there is a lot of work and costs involved, including handcrafted airports from a 3rd party dev. It would be very pleasing if they would update the whole globe like that for free, but I don't think it is going to happen, as much as I wish it would. Nonetheless, the world as it is now is already looking terrific and way more than acceptable despite a few flaws. More than happy about the progress.

Patch Version 1.8.3.0 Is Now Available!
armchair_pilot replied to penta_a's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
My FPS have increased from 20 to 25 at EDDF in the 787 and I have less stutters. Also, guys, THERE ARE POWERLINES NOW! AT least, that's what I just witnessed while touring around ELLX. -
Smooth Track For Android
armchair_pilot replied to CFIJose's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Currently I am fiddling around with Facetrack NOIR but there are still some glitches that make it hard to smoothly track my face. How does this app compare? -
The first 'zibo' style project has begun
armchair_pilot replied to suncoastflyer's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
While I am really happy for all the Airbus folks here, I am wondering if there are any plans on a similar project regarding the 747 and especially the 787? -
the jet sounds are terrible
armchair_pilot replied to JETPETER2's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Also impressed with the sounds. Not only the engine sounds, but also how the environments, instrument switches etc. sound. -
Absolutely agreed. Today's kids have way too high and unrealistic expectations and there is a great number of them who are quite misinformed, judging by some threads I have seen here and on steam. I was hyped for this sim and am still blown away by how good it performs, looks and flies, despite the lack of some features and the presence of bugs. A milestone in gaming technology for sure. No reason for MS & Asobo to be let down by all the negativity, they have done a fantastic job IMO.

Stuck at 3,68GB Update
armchair_pilot replied to brahms's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Same, the launcher crashed at 391MB left to download... Now it won't continue. -
So, did anybody have a smooth installation?
armchair_pilot replied to dobee51's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
So the content manager crashed at 391MB left to download... Fired it up again and now it's stuck at "Please wait". How long does this take? -
Yeah it's just sad. I mean, I used to fly in FSX and P3D with tons of graphical improvements and absolutely loved it. But I admit that none of these improvements, except for some 3rd party scenery, come close to what we see in this new stock sim. Everyone, enjoy your sim, but don't bash on what others are going to enjoy in a few days.
