You might wish to raise this question on the respective support forums/discords for a definitive answer. I dimly recall reading that the default navigation data does not include the information required for some procedures, probably something like radius-to-fix segments. That would suggest that the default data are fine, but not as detailed as those available through Navigraph. Just to be clear, we're talking about the database here, not the charts themselves.

I just checked flightsim.to and the request to disable ad blockers now has an option to "Continue without supporting us" option. That should satisfy most of us.

That sounds like the departure is from an untowered airport, at least in FAA land. Does it also occur at larger fields?

Thanks, but the video I linked above provides some insight into the process that developers must go through in order to optimize performance and appearance of individual games. I haven't heard that Asobo has done this yet for MSFS, as it looks like a significant job. So those videos may be based on DLSS files "borrowed" from the NBA program. [Please consider everything I wrote there to totally tentative and provisional.] No doubt there will be performance/quality trade-offs. We may need to hear from Asobo on this.

Please share sources. Thanks.

There's also a new version of the Nvidia App that got downloaded this morning. The latest driver version on that app (on my system) is 616.64 which "activates DLSS 5 3D-Guided Neural Rendering in NBA 2K27..." Here's the link: DLSS 5 3D-Guided Neural Rendering Debuts in NBA 2K27 | NVIDIA Looks good, but I wonder what this does to performance on already packed VRAM configurations.

And I have a 5070ti as noted in the signature and run 4K as well. Most settings are on Ultra, but Texture Resolution is on high. The limiting factor in most cases is the VRAM of 16 GB. I limit the native framerate at 30 fps, which is doubled to 60. I can't detect any stutters. TLOD and OLOD are set to 150, although Autofps lets me go up to 300 if I want. I 'm pretty much satisfied with the default airports, although I do have one for testing, the Ini KLAX. As suggested above, I used ChatGPT to guide me through the setup. It quickly led me to what seems like a most satisfactory level of performance. In HDR, it's really a work of art.

I think the OP is referring to the two factor authenticatioin code that is sent to the user email account when first logging with OC3. On my system at least, this only happened the first time after I installed OC3 because, there seems to be no need to log in again. In other words, so long as I don't log out of OC3, it doesn't require a new 2FA code. So perhaps we should ask if the OP logs out of OC3 after each use. If so, why? Best wishes for a good weekend.

I'm not sure if you're asking for others to check in, but I have been flying around SoCal for the past week with no issues. And that includes the iniBuilds KLAX. Just to be sure, has the OP cleared out the Community folder and turned off any external add-ons in order to test the system?

Perhaps you could file a report with PMDG support. If this can be done repeatedly, they will be very interested.

Please forgive me, dear moderators, but I think that this discussion actually does belong back on the MSFS 2020/2024 forum rather than being placed in Hanger Chat. This continuing woes of the MSFS gaming enterprise may directly impact the future of our favorite flight simulation software, perhaps not immediately, but in the foreseeable future. Thanks for your consideration.

This news appears in many financial news sources today Microsoft cuts 2.1% of employees as Xbox unit plans to spin studios It looks like MS is focusing on its burgeoning AI businesses while pulling back somewhat from its gaming enterprises. In addition to the job cuts at Xbox, four of its in-house gaming studios are being spun off to become independent entities. Interesting times ahead for the flight sim community?

To be more specific, this parameter can be set on the PMDG FMC at the following location: SETUP > AIRCRAFT > DISPLAYS > ND (6/9) > MIN RUNWAY LENGTH For the case of the default Delta livery, this value is 5000FT. Because the only runway at EGLC is around 4950 feet, this airport would not be displayed by default on this particular aircraft. If you want the ND to display smaller airports, just set MIN RUNWAY LENGTH to the desired minimum value. Hope that helps. Have a great weekend everyone. Happy Father's Day!

Just tried it, and, yes, I was blocked from logging in while on a VPN connection. Worked fine without the VPN.

Not directly responsive to the original question, but assignment of the spoiler axis to a Thrustmaster HOTAS slider works fine on my setup. I can't help with regard to the buttons.
