My normal rate of descent is approx 600 FPM (feet per minute). Have to do the math to determine that in regard to FPS (feet per second). LOL! I just fly!

UP and running again this try. USA East Coast. 21:30Z now. Had not tried for a couple of hours previously.

Still down here on USA east coast (Maryland). Why the references to xbox? I am on a desktop.

In the meantime get your arms around the excellent "autoFPS" app that is so mentioned here on Avsim. The developer has the longest running topic in Avsim history and is present and very supportive. His app may provide some interim benefit for you. Sad to see that you are too budget restricted for a new system. The topic is in this MSFS forum and the most recent post by the developer was less than 5 hours ago.

I highly suspect an assignment within your Settings, Controls. Milviz has its own mindset relative to hardware assignments. Do you see and hear your RPM increase with application of throttle? Have you attempted to release the parking brake with your mouse? Attempt to and observe. Does it release and then immediatly lock down again? Also check external views to insure you do not haver chocks in place, etc.

That is a most excellent link! 👋

And me as well. Was not any attempt to single you or anyone else out.

It is markedly better and nowhere near as taxing on my system (my system specs are in my signature below). Looks incredible. Hey, I fly in, park, and shut down. I do not taxi around looking for flaws, and never try to use MSFS to enter the airport and look around. I have spent too many long hours in airports during my business career and the inside of an airport in a simulator is not on my plate. 🤥

The first is Addons Linker, and it is free so you still get three more.... The next is AutoFPS, which is also free. So you still get three more.... Navigraph subscription Active Sky Pick one scenery...

Does it have a feature to keep profiles in place from MSFS session to the next. With thr latest MSFS 2024 build (not using beta) my controls settings per aircraft are not staying in place. I have to go into Settings Controls and reselect the appropriate profiles, even when flying the same aircraft from session to session.

Please report back on your experience.

I did that later this afternoon, and I found a previous post and response here that helped. But your explanation above in response to me is much more clear to me. Thanks as always. Been a loyal user since day one! 😀

I flew for the first time since this update today. I noticed that FG was inactive. Have not encountered this before. Checking during my 3 hour flight I found FG occasional active, then later inactive again. I have not made any settings changes. Seems that if I simply go into MS2024 Settings, do not make any changes, then return and check again, FG is then active. I fly for a while, check Auto FPS, and again FG is inactive. Any guidence? My hardware specs are in my signature.

Ryan is mostly correct with his descriptions in his post. In addition to the virga that he points out, storms, especially heavy storms, may at times also be accompanied by lower cumulus fractus clouds, often referred to as scud, which do not have uniform bases. It is also common for layers of cumulus clouds to be accompanied by higher levels of clouds, such as altocumulus and altostratus, and even cirrus, which are yet higher. Those layers have their own base levels. And those have base levels that unto themselves are also quite uniform. I have not yet seen a weather engine with textures that represent all cloud types, and especially not render multiple cloud levels together in a proper sense. In my experience Active Sky 16 (2016) for FSX and X-plane did those best. MSFS 20 & 24 appear to present challenges to multi-level rendering, especially cirrus cloud types.

Is there not a way to have the Meigs overlay the update?
