Hi all Does anyone know if there is a way to reduce or remove the reflections of the ground (runway lines etc) that move up and across the wind shield in the new update? Thanks in advance if you can help. Best wishes. Bob

Hi all I updated to the new drivers but sadly I could not get the NVIDIA Frame Gen to work at all. However I COULD get the AMD FSR 3 frame gen to work with the new drivers. This makes no sense so to me as I have a NVIDIA 4090 video card? I went back to drivers 591.74 and NVIDIA Frame Gen is working fine again. Any one have any suggestions as to what may be happening? Its not a show stopper as MSFS2024 is running well with the 591.74 Drivers, but I guess I will need to update the drivers at some time in the Future. Thanks in advance if you can help. Best wishes. Bob

Hi Jack I think if you have the msfs 2024 setting as you say (Parked Aircraft Quantity - Med) FSLTL and MSFS liveries will compete against each other which is why the discord Chanel recommends having MSFS 2024 parked aircraft off. I am not sure what happens to the MSFS aircraft dressed in the FSLTL liveried when the get to a parking space. Perhaps they just vanish? However I am getting moving and flying aircraft wearing the FSLTL liveries. Last night just after landing at NZWN I got a sounds air caravan landing on top of me. (As I noted above the MSFS default aircraft do look good in the FSLTL liveries but they are not the best behaved.) Sounds air is a local Kiwi company. The rest of NZWN was full of ANZ A320 and ATR aircraft which is appropriate for NZWN. Most were parked some where moving However my understanding is the aircraft moments etc will not be very accurate to real world schedules etc. Sorry I cant help with why the aircraft pop in only when you get close. I am not getting this best wishes. Bob

Hi Jack I got the information from the FSLTL discord site however I think it may be repeated somewhere on this forum This is copied from the discord site. Please Note This was posted before the new injector but I am using it with the new injector which basically has less options (It now has only options for static aircraft). Best wishes.

Hi Both I am using the FSLTS injector which only injects stationary aircraft now. For the time being, I decided to use the msfs2024 default live traffic (which seam to use the FSLTS liveries fine) However the default live traffic still do the strange things that the default traffic does. However at least they look nice as they are doing the strange things. The advantage of this is it is cost free, looks good The disadvantage is the moving traffic does the odd things MSFS traffic does. I hope this helps. Best wishes. Bob

Hi Thank you very much for the detailed response. I understand it now. Best wishes. Bob

Hi Thanks for the reply and help so far. So: 1/ I already have msfs 2024 and the freeware version of FSUIPC running on the msfs2024 machine. (I use FSUIPC for a pilots live V2) 2/ my understanding was I now need only to install Pilot2ATC and WideFS (Pay-were) on the second PC? 3/ What is WideClient? 4/ I am a little confused when you say " P2ATC on a laptop with WideClient linked to MSFS 20/24 running FSUIPC7+WideFS (payware versions) on the sim machine." From your description looks as though I need to install WideFS onto the MSFS2024 PC? Then Pilot2ATC and WideClient on the second PC?. I did guess I may need to have a microphone on the second PC (even though I don’t at the moment intend to use the microphone. I think I would rather interact with Pilot2atc via the mouse and keyboard on the second PC) The second PC is a old but fairly powerful intel I7 with a Nvidia1080 32 gig ram and a solid speakers, so I am confident this will run pilot2atc OK, its just where I need to install WideFS etc. Can you confirm where I need to install WideFS (I thought it needed to be installed on the second PC) and what is the WideClient? Thanks in advance if you can help. Best wishes. Bob

Hi Thanks for your help. On the strength of this I will give it a try. Best wishes. Bob

Hi Thanks for the reply. Currently I don’t have the space for another monitor so that suggestion will not work. I have read the mentioned thread which is where I got me idea from. The second PC is already set up with its own keyboard mouse speakers etc all in easy reach of the main flight sim PC so in my mind there is no reason for these to be shared with the main flight sim PC I guess I just need some sort of reassurance that what I think will work is likely to work before I make the purchase of Widefs7. I do appreciate the generous 2 week trial period that Pilot2atc offers but a a pensioner on a fixed income I am a little reluctant to spend the money on Widefs7 and find it will not work. Thanks again if you can help. Best wishes. Bob

Hi all I have MSFS2024 and would like to have a ATC programme that works over a network. 1/ My understanding is I can install Pilot2atc on a separate computer connected to the same network. I will need to have FSCUIP 7 (free version) on the flight sim computer and widefs7 ( pay-were version? I think its called that) on the network PC. Basically, nothing new to install on the msfs2024 pc but Widefs7 and Pilot2atc on the network pc. 2/ The reason I want to install pilot2atc over the network is so that my flight sim screen is not cluttered. 3/ I don’t feel I want to use the microphone and voice recognition at present. I feel I would like to use the mouse and or keyboard on the second PC to work Pilot2atc. Is this feasible? 4/ I use Air manager on the second PC so I guess my network is working fine. 5/ Is there any thing else I need to be aware of? Thanks in advance if you can help. Best wishes. Bob

Hi. I know it probably will not help, but I have also had both msfs2020 and msfs2024 connection issues the last few days. As with you it has been very temporary, (ending the session then trying again the connection was back and both would run fine). So at the moment I am guessing it may be a small issue with the msfs servers? Best wishes. Bob

Hi, Thanks for the heads up Although I am using MSFS2024 more often these days, I still do like some things with MSFS2020. Therefore as as Kiwi I did mise having the POI in 2020 (which if disabled avoided the CTD) Its good to note this has now been fixed. Best wishes. Bob

Hi Are you using ChasePlane? If so there is no pilot in external views if you fly with MSFS2024 native aircraft. (MSFS2020 ported aircraft still have the pilot in external views). This is a listed limitation noted on the Parallel 42 web site along with a few other known limitations. To the best of my knowledge this is due to a known MSFS issue so it may be down to Microsoft to fix. If you need further information have a look on the parallel 42 site for Chaseplane under known limitations and it has a link to the issue. I hope this helps. Best wishes Bob

Hi Yes there is no pilot in external views if you fly with MSFS2024 native aircraft. (MSFS2020 ported aircraft still have the pilot in external views). This is a listed limitation noted on the Parallel 42 web site along with a few other known limitations. To the best of my knowledge this is due to a known MSFS issue so it may be down to Microsoft to fix. If you need further information have a look on the parallel 42 site for Chaseplane under known limitations and it has a link to the issue. PS At first I thought this would be a show stopper for me but one I started using ChacePlane I liked it so much i decided to live with the no pilot in external view. Hopefully a fix will come at some time. I hope this helps. Best wishes Bob

Hi I think its Microsoft who need to fix something, so it may be a while. If you have a look on the parallel 42 site where you bought chase plane there is a link to MSFS 20204 with the details. best wishes. Bob

Hi Do you have ChasePlane? If so Parallel 42 advised they have disabled pilot in externai views due to some unresolved issue with MSFS2024. This is noted in there known issues on there web site. I hope this helps. Best wishes. Bob. PS the 2020 aircraft will do still have pilots in external views

Hi all. I am hoping some one who has the Just Friends A-32 Vixxen can give me a little advice. Last week I hired the A-32 Vixen from the marketplace. I did like the aircraft but sadly I dont like the exaggerated windshield terrain reflection effect that some MSFS2024 aircraft have. (The Vixxen had this effect). Does anyone know if Sim Update 4 has changed this? Or if there is a workaround? I would like to get the vixxen but I will not use it with the windshield effect. Thanks in advance if you can help. Best wishes. Bob

Hi. Have you tried uninstalling the NZ POI?. If I have the NZ POI installed I get CTD at many places in the NZ south island. If I uninstall them NZ South Island is fine. Pleas note Microsoft are aware of the issue. Also NZA a 3rd party developer who make lots of excellent NZ scenery add-ons have reached out to Jorg, (the head of MSFS) push for this issue to be resolved. Jorg replied to NZA indicating the issue will be looked into, however we have no news as to when it will be fixes. I hope this helps. Best wishes. Bob

Hi Sadly not for me 1/ I reinstalled the NZ POI 2/ Tried to load the sim from NZNS 3/ got a CTD shortly after entering the aircraft. 4/ Tried again with the same result. 5/ Uninstalled the NZ POI and loaded into NZNS with no issues. Thanks for the heads up and hopefully Microsoft will evidentially fix the issue. Best wishes. Bob

Hi all I just received the below for the support team at Microsoft My guess is that it will be quite a while before Microsoft supply a fix, so we will need live without the POI in NZ for a while. Thanks for all your support and suggestions with this. Best wishes. Bob Support (Microsoft Flight Simulator) Aug 8, 2025, 20:41 GMT+2 Hi Rlaycock, Yes, that is right you will not be able, for the moment that would be a workaround, the team is aware of this and is investigating the cause of it. You can try using DX 12 without frame gen to see if it persist or just DX 11. The issue will now go through the Bugs and Issues Review Process and will be first examined by the QA team before reaching the development teams and Microsoft. Once a fix is ready, it will be included in a corrective patch. Given this change, we will be resolving your current support ticket. When issues are logged in our internal bug tracker, we will mark your ticket as "solved". This doesn't mean that the issue is solved, it just means that there are no more information we can provide to you regarding the matter. We appreciate your understanding and cooperation in this matter. If you have any further questions or need additional assistance, please do not hesitate to reach out to us.

Hi Yes the Brokenwood Mysteries is a NZ show Its mainly filmed around Warkworth (about 50-60K north of Auckland). I often ride up there on my Motorcycle.

Hi I will have a look. I have never tried a group flight it might be interesting to give it a go at some time. A few of the characters I remember are Marty (I recall he went by Splitpin) and a good friend of mine Adam (Adamisk). Back in the day they held a monthly screen shot competition. I think Adam and Marty won the most of the time. (I think I won it once or twice in all the time I tried, However it was fun entering). Best wishes. Bob

Hi Well done finding the culprit, My instinct relating the this issues is that there are a few POI that the sim does not like. For me NZ north island appears fine, sadly the south island is not so fine. Do you feel there is any advantage in reinstalling the POI and commenting out it out as you have? (As you note commenting it out also stops the POI from loading). I wonder if Microsoft are investigating the issue? My dealings with them yesterday did not fill me with confidence that the have acknowledge that there is an issues. Thanks again. Best wishes. Bob

Hi @cowpatz Many years ago (Back in Flight Sim x and P3D I was very active with the bunch at NZFF. I have found memories of the screen shot competition and a very friendly members. However have not visited the site in a while Are they still active? Best wishes Bob
