What does "Vatsim-ready" mean at all? And when has this become a hallmark for addon aircraft? Is "Vatsim-ready" the new "study-level"? If a pilot/simmer is not able to fly a holding or a direct by using the autopilot in selected HDG mode, who is not "Vatsim-ready? The pilot or the aircraft? In other words: Release it! 😉

Yes, I can't imagine flying these aircraft without Multi Crew Experience. I have been using it for many years on different platforms and all kinds of airliners. Couldn't do without it. When I ocassionally fly an airliner without MCE - mostly when testing something - it just doesn't feel right and is only half as immersive as with my trusty copilot.

Very nice 😄. Another nice effect that enhances immersion a lot with the Fenix is the one for the speedbrakes. Be aware of the low alt turbulence effect though. I'm not sure if it has been solved but it could have adverse effects on the flightmodel of the Fenix. I have it off.

FS Hud - ultra basic, super simple question :o)

Yes. -
Great video of a stunning scenery! Totally off topic, but: Everytime I see those videos I wonder how do you guys know when you touched down? There is no shaking or any adequate movement whatsoever in the cockpit when you touch down. It looks so sterile and immersion-breaking. Apart from I don't understand why Asobo haven't added a convincing touchdown effect so far themselves, do yourself a favor and get FSRealistic! 😉 Even if you don't use it for anything else but the touchdown effects. These alone are worth it. It adds so much to the immersion. You get a visual and acoustic feedback on your touch down - and how hard it was. You will never want to fly (land) without FSRealistic again. It works fine with the Fenix. You can see the effect here (at 11:30):

Good to know. It's great to see that most ATC addon developers finally realized that for an immersive product they need to control both the user aircraft and the AI traffic alike . What surprises me though is that both BATC and SayIntentions seem to expect to be able to develop that feature within a few weeks. Looking at FSHud, they (and probably VoxATC as well) are now working on it for at least a year and while it basically works it showed that the devil is in the details. In particular airborne traffic separation and sequencing apparently proved to be a major task and they still haven't released a public beta version with a working airborne separation and sequencing yet (it seems to be imminent though). Will be interesting to see how long it will take BATC and SayIntentions to really accomplish that and what they will come up with on release.

I think there is a misunderstanding going on here regarding the use of the term "AI". Some use it refering to AI traffic in the sense of AIG, FSLTL etc. Others use it refering to how an app works in the sense of ChatGPT, machine learning etc. So people seem to be talking past each other here sometimes. BATC announced it will control AI traffic but it won't use AI technology (except for the voices). So the ATC phraseology is scripted. SayIntentions does not control AI traffic but it uses AI technology for the communication with the user. So it is like talking to some kind of ChatGPT. At least that's how I understood it.
-
I thought Sayintentions does not control traffic at all? As far as I understood Sayintentions only talks to the user but does not control the AI traffic. Did I miss something? AFAIK FSHud is the only available app that controls the AI traffic. VoxATC and BATC are expected to do so on release but they are not available yet.

Understood. I seem to be the only one who is interested in such a feature anyway. So maybe it's just time for me to finally get a G-Sync monitor. Until then I'll keep on using the DynamicLOD app.

@Reset XPDR, I haven't been able to thoroughly follow this thread any more lately (I'm still happily using your DynamicLOD app.). I just wanted to ask if you still see the chance to make this AutoFPS app compatible with systems that need to keep a fixed steady framerate (like with a monitor that is not G-Sync capable.). I use a tool called CoreTemp which measures and shows the Temps and Loads of all CPU cores. I just came to think if you could adapt your new AutoTargetFPS feature to a AutoTargetTemp or AutoTargetLoad feature, by reading the temps resp. loads of the CPU cores (averaged over all cores and over several seconds) from a tool like CoreTemp and thus adjust LODs to keep that target even with a fixed framerate.

6700k 1080 16GB RAM + Fenix/PMDG - a world of pain?

It depends on what FPS you want to get. If you are one of those who need 60+ FPS you won't succeed with that hardware. If you are happy with 20-30 FPS, you will be fine with moderate settings in MSFS and using the DynamicLOD tool.
