Global Preview Event Presentation
Darth_Vapor666 replied to Tuskin38's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Been months since logging a flight on MS2020, but I can't wait for MS2024. I don't believe in pre-release purchases but am going to have to bend my own rules to make this one exception. Aviator Edition it is then. -
Frame generation for all RTX cards
Darth_Vapor666 replied to MrFuzzy's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
I hear you. Spent a bit of time trying to make it work for my setup. I even ignored distortions on the map and might have lived with ghosting in external view. But having cockpit instrumention all over the place was a show stopper. Will wait for FS24 if I can wait, otherwise upgrade my PC. In any case let's see how this mod evolves and if it gets official support. -
Frame generation for all RTX cards
Darth_Vapor666 replied to MrFuzzy's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Would be very interested to know if this works. Noel, if you still have the mode installed and try this, can you please share your result? I went back to vanilla and am avoiding fiddle with it again. -
Frame generation for all RTX cards
Darth_Vapor666 replied to MrFuzzy's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
That is what I am saying. The previous CTD's I encountered were very obvious and easy to resolve. The two CTD's after installing this mod are not something I've seen before. Might try it again if I have enough time to spend hours and hours troubleshooting instead of simming. -
Frame generation for all RTX cards
Darth_Vapor666 replied to MrFuzzy's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Well it was great while it lasted (some 30 minutes or so). Two different CTD's in quick succession. One related to a memory location and another referring to my graphics card. The only CTD I have had with MSFS before this were when plugging in or out a USB or Bluetooth device. Am out for now but will keep watch for developments in the space. -
Frame generation for all RTX cards
Darth_Vapor666 replied to MrFuzzy's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
So this partly works. Its great with one screen, but as as soon as I go multi-monitor, the issue returns. Its very strange as there is absolutely no screen tearing without fsr3 enabled. Guess I will just try to enjoy these new found frames on a single monitor for now and hopefully its improved in the future. Thanks for your help. -

Oooh there is a 0.70? I didnt see that. Will check it out. THanks for that. -

Darth_Vapor666 replied to MrFuzzy's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
I was hoping this mod would help delay having to upgrade my modest [email protected] RTX 2070 pc. Without using an fps counter, I clearly see the improved quality and smoothness. But I can't seem to get rid of the extreme tearing that happens to cockpit instruments with the slightest movement of the aircraft and the whole aircraft when panning in external view. I have tried just about every combination of nvidia and in-sim settings, but its not going away. Have tried both 0.60 and 0.50 with the same result. Such a pity as I'm so close I can taste it. -
35 minutes is all it took. Pretty happy with that.

FSR500, TBM 850, SWS PC-12 for MSFS 2020.
Darth_Vapor666 replied to haseen's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Yes it could look silly to some to base their decision on what they have read on a forum, but how else do we make choices without having to buy everything? Forums, youtube videos, sim news sites...that's all one can go by. There's no trial or refund period that I am aware of. Like most here I suppose, I have quite a few addons that hardly see the light of day, so just trying to avoid adding more clutter in my virtual hangar. Also we are lucky enough to be in a position to choose as fairly similar aircrafts have landed all at the same time. Perhaps this might be a purchase for another day. Same goes for SWS PC-12. -
FSR500, TBM 850, SWS PC-12 for MSFS 2020.
Darth_Vapor666 replied to haseen's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
I've been tossing up between them too, so thanks for making the decision easier guys. Takeaway for me, SWS PC-12 will not have failures on launch so that's definitely out. TBM 850 suffers from poor sound implementation. FSR500 is the worthy winner. -
//42 Immersion Coming Soon!
Darth_Vapor666 replied to SizzlingPopcorn's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
I agree. Have been hoping for an update to Skypark since forever. Made the mistake of buying Flow. People seem to like it but I haven't found much use for it. Not getting another gimmicky addon from this company. -
Just checked out A Pilot's Life website. I like their flight scoring system, its quite detailed. Would anyone know if it allows you to use its scoring system with the freedom to choose your flights? So I started on a world tour a little while back (mainly <250nm legs with 700+ legs). I want a good performance rating app like FSPassengers to keep me on my toes without the rigidity of having to fly routes for one company. Basically I dont care for economics, management and progression. My focus is an application that rates you without jumping through the hoops. Its not clear to me reading their site if this would be possible. Thanks

FS Traffic released!
Darth_Vapor666 replied to David Roch's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
FS Traffic and GSX; Two peas in a pod. Not going near them. -
C152 improvement mod V2 - Wow!...
Darth_Vapor666 replied to bobcat999's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Great. Bugs out of the way, let's do some flying in our C152's. Never thought I'd say that about a 152. Haha. -
C152 improvement mod V2 - Wow!...
Darth_Vapor666 replied to bobcat999's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
In my case, its New Light mod JPlogistics C152 that was this issue. Makes sense too as it must be pointing to version 1. Hopefully fixes it for you too. Now I can enjoy the fresh air... -
C152 improvement mod V2 - Wow!...
Darth_Vapor666 replied to bobcat999's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Initially I thought it may have something to do with extending the cockpit across multiple screens, but doors in other planes open fine. Will try to look for conflicting apps in my community folder too. Thanks. -
Cowansim MD500 to come to MSFS
Darth_Vapor666 replied to Matchstick's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Its subjective but I find this heli just beautiful. Cries out 'must buy' even if I haven't had the time to devote to other helicopters in my hangar. -
C152 improvement mod V2 - Wow!...
Darth_Vapor666 replied to bobcat999's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
I am sure there is. Just trying to gauge if anyone else is having this problem. -
C152 improvement mod V2 - Wow!...
Darth_Vapor666 replied to bobcat999's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
I hear the door open, but there is no animation. Same goes for the windows. Everything else works fine for me now. Loving it, the modder has done such a great job here. -
C152 improvement mod V2 - Wow!...
Darth_Vapor666 replied to bobcat999's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Yes, I noticed that too. I cant seem to open the window or doors either. Also I cant switch on the avionics. The radios, GTN750 and autopilot panels are all blank. Not sure what I am doing wrong. Any ideas? Thanks in advance. -
FS Traffic released!
Darth_Vapor666 replied to David Roch's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Like many, I was really looking forward to the release of FS Traffic. But never having grasped the concept of a day one purchase, was going to give it atleast a couple of days post release before buying. Based on everything I've read so far here, in other forums and watched on YT videos, I cannot see how this product offers much extra over the existing alternatives. It is being promoted as set and forget. But you still have to remember to enter your destination each time. To me, hitting enter after FSLTL auto-starts is a better example of set and forget. Fps seem only marginally better too. Maybe we've been spoilt rotten by the likes of AIG and FSLTL that offer so much for free. In its current form, this sure does not seem like the breakthrough addon meant to be the answer to our Traffic prayers. -
Bijan vs Accuseason
Darth_Vapor666 replied to mikelockwood's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
I am of the same opinion and asked about this in their discord, with no response. In saying that, Accuseasons is still pretty good. Am really enjoying seeing the changes as Autumn progresses in the northern hemisphere. I was initially a bit sceptical and got Bijan's. That worked fine but was still tempted to try out Accuseason's auto update feature. Also noticed Rex's engagement with the community and how active they were with their products. So got it when it was discounted. I am happy with it and will keep using it. But hoping to see updates that address seasonal changes to objects other than trees. Unless of course Asobo comes in with something better.
