It’s directly tied to earning achievements - that’s the only reason I can think of why no means to mod or alter it has ever come about since release and that it’s not stored locally

Alt+PtrScr only captures the active window

Did they mention the Spruce Goose at all when they talked about the increased engine count?

Folders in your addons directory can be named whatever you want and are loaded alphabetically. Anything loaded after something else can override a previous folder. So in this case change the name so that the airport folder comes after the mesh folder. Whatever mesh the airport uses will load after the statewide mesh and override it

While adding these things to the base sim would guarantee they remain updated as long as the core sim is updated you are also locking any improvements into the months-long dev cycle currently required by the core devs to also deal with various complex bugs and issues. Mamu and other freeware/payware devs can push new updates whenever they have new data ready within days. No point asking for these things to be integrated into the core game as long as there is an external dev who can provide better support for them

since they're here now might as well ask - does the DC Designs F-14 need a mod like the one for the Hornet?

If you think this is bad go look at Taburet, which is waaaaay more prolific in their various 7-12$ offerings

well that was my first ever bizarre update issue since launch. restarted as suggested and downloaded a whopping 8MB to complete the installation. OK 😆

This method also prevents you having to make changes to your actual controller sensitivies (which would affect all planes)

Only for people who are using a single control profile for all planes. Tho with the clunky profile manager in the sim I wouldn't blame you... personally tho I have a profile for each plane so I can adjust my control sensitivities to deal with issues like over-pitchy response

If they addressed more forum questions then people would just whine that they didn't get in-depth-enough answers

what pedals? Look into getting them recalibrated perhaps. How do the axis behave in the sim settings screen?

Spent about 30min searching and the closest I could find was this: https://www.ebay.com/itm/134039307167?ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT&_trksid=p2060353.m1438.l2649

Which isn't really that bad (I can turn them to face opposite each other rather than be both offset the same direction) and bonus is I'll prob use them for a DC-3 or DC-6 at some point. But still, the purist in me wants levers that look like the ones with handles you can find in a Twin Otter or Goose

Anyone have any that can tell me where they got them or know of any being sold?

Or does anyone with modeling chops want to design some? I have a friend with a 3D printer but would also be willing to pay additional to the modeler to print them if you have a printer as well

SBJ choices heating up! Cirrus and HJet, now this - mmmm decisions decisions

@tup61 and @Car147 you need to post flight hardware information if you're asking about control issues

Someone has already forked the mod project and will be attempting to get it patched up and take it further. We'll see how that goes but fingers crossed!

For those who are unaware, I notice that FSElite has Dev Ouroboros featuring a new Phenom100 in development with a Phenom 300 to follow. 

freeware waaat? Looks gorgeous. Will def donate if it turns out gud

There is an even longer annoying pause now in between "good day" when ATC signs off on a frequency handover but other than that I've like the new voices but there doesn't seem to be much variation still

PHENOM!!!! Been waiting for one and had no idea this was even in the works

But, so many caveats 😞

Looks like the first plane I will have to wait for reviews to read, and compare closely to the Cirrus and HJet to decide which I want

I've had to deal with these strung across the fjords of Norway and on finals into several airports. It's friking great!!

Can you, or any member, advise me how to correctly edit each .cfg file to do this?

Aircraft.cfg in the livery folder set the atc_id property

Make sure you leave the registration field in the flight setup menu empty

Yea I've been updating since the game launched and never ever ran into a single problem I keep seeing other people mention. Most likely they are doing something non-standard with their installation for various reasons. Not saying that's bad, but don't just go blaming the installer that's been working fine for the majority of people

Latest dev chat mentioned improved ground physics down the line. Currently wheels are just 1 point each on the ground and they want to make them actual surfaces in contact with the ground at varying widths (tire sizes) and materials. So better ground handling and surface contamination will all eventually come from that

But, it's still worth to ask: do you see this happening at default, non-enhanced airports at all? Because that's what I would consider 'base game'. A third party airport, even using default textures, I would not consider 'base game'.

It's not the fault of any add ons and it may not even be the fault of MSFS. My card series of 2000 just may be messed up in handling anisotropic filtering properly for some reason. Could be a driver thing. Def not an add on tho

Someone managed to fix this on their system, details in this thread: https://forums.flightsimulator.com/t/ground-grid-lines-since-wu6-fixed/474301

Didn't work for me or one other person but we need more data from people experiencing this problem. Be sure to include your graphics card model

you can't use the three modes directly via MSFS assignments. You have to use the programming tool and send keystrokes. So setup the keyboard assignments in MSFS the way you want and then send those keys to the sim using the Logitech software. It's more powerful that way for other uses as well - such as setting up one of the levers as a gear control using the axis bands
