It doesn’t seem that the correct scenery is active, this is not how LJLJ from Scenic routes look like … It has installed quite straight forward for me. Can you try to remove it from the Community folder and install again?

Same experience, stuttering, I.e. freezing for up to a second, every 13 to 48 seconds. Empty community folder and nothing simconnected. Will try to switch to DX11, thanks for the tip.

It’s good to have a powerful CPU, if not for FPS then to run the WRF model in parallel on WSL/Ubuntu, in real time on a rather high resolution, over a moving domain centered at the airplane location and then feeding that numerical solution to replace or augment the MSFS live weather.. MSFS uses in average 1.25 cores on my i7-12700k, so plenty of CPU cores for the weather model.

A different paradigm may be explored. Instead of increasing the voxel resolution, the clouds could be represented with shapes. There’s enough data in the MB weather model to support a post-processing system which calculates the extent (area and thickness), density, species (Cu, St, Ci, …) and precipitation, consistently. I suspect such a system was actually implemented in MSFS initially. (Btw have you noticed there’s no longer the weather topic group available in the General discussion, in the official MSFS forum?)

MS has revolutionized the cloud creation by modeling the weather holistically, thereafter the depiction just followed naturally. The clouds reflected the dynamics of the atmosphere and appeared familiar to us, which made them look great. MS should have continued to explore it further, with the ice clouds, etc. Instead they reverted to the traditional approach filling the air in blocks with puffs (not the worst looking puffs 🙂 but still).

Speaking of historical weather, I would be completely satisfied with the Meteoblue/MSFS weather simulation without the METAR infusion. The consistency of the atmosphere would be as awesome as it was in MSFS before SU7, and for flying 12 hours ago the exact weather (I.e. AVSIM) does not matter.

What is the solution for this? It started happening to me the last few days, and DX11/12 makes no difference, rolling cache either.

Hi, there is a YouTube video explaining how to set up the reverse thrust, but I haven't found anything regarding the detents (Idle, Climb, MCT/Flex, ToGa). Has anyone figured out how to calibrate the TCA throttles for the Airbus FADEC, for example the FF A230? All the correct detents are identified in the calibration interface, but the yellow points are seemingly impossible to drag around for a good calibration. Thanks!

I think it’s the atmosphere scattering some light back. Can be moonlight, or maybe the starlight is a little bit too strong.

Hi, how did the error manifest in your case? My BK2 has worked fine about year ago. After a longer break I tried to use it again, but the red on/off light stays red. I can hear the click inside the box when I press the on/off button though. It is connected via an USB Sound Blaster G1 and the Sound Module is set to use it. (even playing just music through the G1 enabled as sound device doesn't wake the BK2 up). Any suggestions? Thanks!

Probably playing Psion Flight Simulator on a ZX Spectrum. Remember Mono lake and Pyramid lake, and CFIT without ever seeing the terrain.

If it’s using METAR as the source then it cannot be better than MSFS weather no matter how imperfect that one is. Time when a weather simulation is judged by how closely it fits METAR has passed.

Hi, is there a way to assign one of the Bravo axis to both toe brakes? My Ruddo started to spike and the right toe brake applies full action when right rudder is commanded … So I am mitigating it temporarily.

And moreover, if they are indeed playing by the SAFe book, they prioritize by WSJF. The real question is how they define the value of features, I.e. which customers they want to make happy.

Do we know if the weather in XP12 is primarily fed by METAR, I.e. will it have priority over the weather forecast model and the sim will impose the observed conditions at the airports?
