This was asked. Seb gave a generic answer that sometimes things get broken but that's why they have flighting (beta). Jorg chimed in that they were alerted by Kai but did not offer any specific timeline

Experience with Behringer Xtouch Mini as a controller
ctalpas replied to ctalpas's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Thanks turbomax and flyforever for your responses! Sounds like a steep learning curve to get setup but once you overcome those hurdles, it works well. I've found these two setup videos -the Flightsim & Other Stuff one doesn't go through the same level of assigning specific numbering to all the keys as does TOGATech. Which is the preferred route in your experience? Also has anyone had experience with this add on found flightsim.to? https://flightsim.to/file/38162/x-touch-mini-gauge-for-use-with-aao-axis-and-ohs Chris -
Hi Folks, I see that it is possible to use the Behringer X-touch mini as an input device when coupled with Axis & ohs. I'm considering purchasing one and am interested in hearing people's feedback who have used it. Use case would typically be for G1000 in C172 and use with the WTmod CJ4 Any experience specifically with those uses would ideal but also interested in general happiness with the setup. Thanks, Chris

Are clouds the best ever now? I'm impressed.
ctalpas replied to Todd2's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
If only METAR based weather could be an option that can be turned on or off -kind of like a reduced functionality legacy flight model -but alas I can see the difficulty of tyring to support both options Agreed the promised richness of the weather system has not been realized and has been partially borked to satisfy the desire for METARs. -
Actually heard a bird warning on CYYZ's ATIS broadcast on Friday morning, so having those in the game would be a neat addition.

FlyTampa CYYZ vs RegDesign CYYZ
ctalpas replied to Ehviator's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
I had CYYZ from FlyTampa back when I was regularly fying P3D and enjoyed it although it struggled a bit on frame rates. Went and purchased the MSFS one today and have flown around it with AIG Traffic active -other than the ADE files it was a feast to behold. Perhaps not as up to date but certainly fantastic textures and good perfomance. Pleased with my purchase. -
Henrik Nielsen's Global AI Ship Traffic for MSFS
ctalpas replied to captain420's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Henrik, Thank you so much for all your efforts in sprearheading this vast upgrade of the shipping ecosystem over the sim default shipping. Thanks to all of your collaborators on this project as well. The community is blessed to have individuals such as yourselves giving so freely of themselves. Chris -
November 11th 2021 - Development Update
ctalpas replied to ChaoticBeauty's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
The only mention of AIG is in the Top Wishes list. I'd like to see some specific mention and a paragraph or two. Perhaps make the picture of the week contest about busy airports -
November 11th 2021 - Development Update
ctalpas replied to ChaoticBeauty's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020)
Thanks ChaoticBeauty. Hope they acknowledge the remarkable release of AI traffic this week by AIG in the next update as the featured freeware mod or something like that. -
My experience with AIG in P3D was that it was so good at creating a 'living airport' that sometimes I would just park my plane on the apron of FlyTampa's CYYZ and watch the planes taking off and landing. Virtual plane spotting, if you will. The AIG schedules closely matched the real world schedules shown in FlightAware (pre-Covid). As mentinoned above -better models, better liveries, realistic schedules and realistic airport population.
