FSReborn Piper M500 releasing on Thursday
CaptainNick replied to Matchstick's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
It is there as Piper PA-46 Meridian, its OG Name prior to the M series rebrand. I have owned one in FSE for a many years. Used to fly the Carenado one in p3d with it. -
Next Carenado Project?

port the 210, 1900 and the emb 120 -
I get in the 50s-60s on my 4k TV. I use Track IR when in 2d, so my first concern was a higher framerate to keep up with Track IR's polling (it is trash below 40's) and then maximizing eye candy but not at the cost of keeping framerates in the 50's. As such, while I have alot of things on ultra, I do keep my LOD's at 100 and have some of the annoying post processing stuff turned off. I set it once and then forget about it. No need to babysit FPS beyond the initial setup. Same thing for VR with my G2. I put the settings to get me the best framerate first, then found a happy medium that allowed great framerate (using the toolkit etc) with decent visuals. Set it once, then I turned all the overlays etc off.

What A2A will likely do next after the Comanche
CaptainNick replied to bofhlusr's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Bring on the Vtail and finish the Aerostar. -
A2A Comanche has been released!

Been flying her in VR a lot. The king is back. And boy have they set a benchmark. -
The entire picture? VirtualCol makes trash add ons worthy of inclusion on an Abacus boxed set for fs9. You seem desperate to want a 220 no matter the quality. I think most of us here would rather not see a VirtualCol one get released, than they continue and thousands of people get duped on the marketplace by it thinking it is something it’s not. But hey, if you want trash so bad I’m sure you could reach out to them and send them some cash to finish the project…

And if they include the terrible sounds from the g1000 182 we can just swap the FTSim soundpack in instead

Honeycomb Customer Service
CaptainNick replied to prdant's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
My young daughter ripped out the light switches on my Alpha somehow. Emailed them several times to enquire about paying for and ordering some replacement switches but never got a response. Honestly I like the equipment having both a launch Alpha and a launch Bravo but if my Alloy RD1 pedals ever take a dump (not very likely since they are straight metal) the Charlie pedals would not be on the list due to their lack of any support. -
What’s the July Surprise? Guesses…
CaptainNick replied to TravelRunner404's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Well I think GotFriends stopped working on theirs for msfs due to Asobo having the Diamond license. It would be an easy one for them to whip up. -
What is really missing in MFS
CaptainNick replied to zorro747's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Pilot Controlled Lighting, and an EMB120 😛
