  1. For those of you with Sayintentions.ai I find the SkyOps missions very satisfying. Gives a great reason to fly, gives a little synopsis of your mission, generates realistic missions for the area and plane you are using. Sayintentions keeps track of your flight hours and moves you up their ranks and reward badges, but most importantly it's not a grinding system. You can fly whatever plane you want wherever you want and choose from different mission types. So it has a lot of freedom and variety. Really liking it so far and I have tried a lot of the career options out there. I think i like this one the best.
  2. 1. Blacksquare TBM 850 2. A2A Comanche 3. Default Cessna Caravan
  3. Aren’t all the world updates automatically streamed in now? Essentially no world updates need to be downloaded.
  4. In case anybody else was wondering. There is a key bind called “Toggle Visual Assistance Display”. It will turn on and off the the visual assistance in Career Mode flights.
  5. You have to first fly the Golden mission in each category before it will populate other jobs in that category near you FBO. When a mission category is unlocked it will show you a sneak peak of the golden mission that you must fly before all those missions are unlocked.
  6. Settings to remove those are under General; Flight Interface; then under the Cockpit Camera section. Turn off both the tooltips options
  7. Has anyone figured out how to get rid of the visual aids in career mode? I turned them off in the main settings and that works for free flight but I still get the annoying fly through boxes and taxiway arrows in career mode. I thought at first I had to complete training for them to go away but they still show up for every flight after getting my ppl and commercial
  8. It does not take off the covers/chocks when you shift c into the cockpit and I don’t know of a shortcut to do so. As far as I know if your starting cold and dark you have to preflight the exterior.
  9. I've been paying for Game Pass well before Flight Simulator came out. As such I've never really "paid" for Flight Simulator as it is part of Game Pass. I do buy products within the in-game Marketplace, so I have contributed directly to Flight Simulator in that sense. There will be no separate subscription just for Flight Simulator, it's either Game Pass which encompasses a bunch of games, or you buy the game outright.
  10. Every good tree produces good fruit. Looking at the product and the huge community around it and how it has all come together, I would say Jorg is a good tree.
  11. ATC - it is never going to get as good as Vatsim. The only thing that is better is if more people used it. I'd rather fly on Vatsim and make a radio calls on Unicom than fly with programmed ATC. One single glitch with programmed ATC and all realism is lost. Career mode as a prop for boredom because the sim is not complex? We have some pretty complex aircraft if you are willing to invest in them. But no matter how complex the aircraft and sim may be you can always enjoy a reason to fly "career mode". I am very happy they are developing that side of the sim and at least for myeslf, I am very much looking forward to it.
  12. Can anyone help me out on a separate issue. I am following the checklist exactly and I cannot get rid of the T/O Config warning when taking off. I have Fuel and Ignition to manual. Flaps at 10. Elevator trimmed, Rudder trimmed 2 clicks to the right aligned with takeoff marker, Bleed air is pulled... off the top that's all I can remember. But I'm following the built in check list and I still get the config error. Thanks for any help!
  13. So the takeaways from this article and the answered questions from the comments 1. 64 bit 2. Upgraded code based off of FSX - NOT MS Flight 3. 3rd party developers will be part of the offerings - I'm on p3dv3 and I love it, however if Dovetails simulator is a full blown 64 bit simulator based off FSX's whole world, I'm definitely in on this and will be a customer. Also real live weather has to be part of the deal, if not i'm out.
  14. I fixed my frame drops after i discovered my cpu was running too hot under heavier loads which was causing the cpu clock muliplier to drop affectively only giveing my 1500mhz or less. I bought a $50 liquid cpu cooler from corsair and went into my bios and dissabled all the power saving options under the advanced setting for the cpu. My bios (gigabyte MB) had a setting to lower the cpu speed to help maintain temperature, I disabled that as well. Disabling the power saving options affectively locked the cpu at it's full speed the entire time and doesn't let the system lower the mulplier. The cooler worked great dropping my cpu temps by about 40% (doesn't go over 50 Celsius now where as before I would get into the 70's and 80's). This fixed my low fps problem that to me appeared to develop randomely. I have an older system - I7 920 chip that is pegged at 3000mhz, a gtx 760 2gb, and 6gb of dd3 memory. I am now at 25-45fps with a2a Comanche, my traffic 6 set at 30%, ASN weather, and photoscenery from Megascenery. Sliders are either all maxed or close to max. When i'm in non photoscenery areas I have autogen set to dense and my frames are about the same as my photoscenery areas. My frames drop to 20 - 25 when i'm in the aerosoft a319 but things are still fairly fluid. Most importantly, its now consistent, no more crazy frame drops. I will admit my stock cooler I had prior needed new thermal grease as when I went to replace it I noticed that the original grease had turned to dust.
  15. Hey guys, it's my experience that any motion options in your tv's picture settings should be turned completely off. All it is doing is adding unneeded processing to the image which can cause slight distortions or slight lag especially when there is fast motion happening on the screen. I work in the A/V world and we shut off all motion affects on every panel we set up. For those with Samsung TV's the most accurate picture setting we have found to be: Picture set to STANDARD, Sharpness level turned down to somewhere around 30-35 (default is 50), Color turned down a few points to somewhere around 45-48, Auto Motion option is turned off (this is found in Picture Options). That's pretty much it, all others settings are left as default. Some Samsungs have the "NATURAL" setting which also looks good and can be used as an alternate to STANDARD. you would still want to tweak the other changes as mentioned above.
