Any chance you could add this to the repo? And maybe add some place where we could donate to show our appreciation?

I don't post much but I have to say that this worked exceptionally well. Kudos for the nice job. I hate to ask for more, but VR support would be a double game changer.

I bet you wish you had that setup.

To tide you over look what just got released a few minutes ago https://store.fsimstudios.com/products/texan-simulations-houston-hobby-international-airport-for-msfs?ref=texansim.com

With that system and the money you're spending you need to think monitor and also a VR headset. I have a 43 inch 4k gsync monitor for 2d, and a reverb G2 for VR (it's good but I'd get higher res if you can afford it). I love the monitor and the 2d flying is great, but the VR experience is quite something and you don't want to miss out. It's about half and half for me. But when I'm in the mood for the best possible experience, it's VR hands down.

I'm in the same boat. I just did a new build 4090 + 7950x, and chose AMD for the upgrade path. Debating whether it will be worth it to swap out when the XD chips drop. With frame generation in 2D I can run with everything maxed and lots of traffic, LOD 400 and it's perfect, but still in VR things can get a tiny bit sluggish with everything maxed in the most demanding of settings, although overall it's still pretty darn good. I drop LOD to 300 for VR.

I just took the plunge today to upgrade my 9700k/3090 and went for the 7950x. The logic I used is for the very minimal gain I'd get now from the 13900 over AMD's offering (which I think should be very negligible with a 4090), I get at least 2 or 3 generations of upgradability in just swapping out the chip. I should mention that the price on the build with the 13900k was nearly identical.

I also have the same problem

One of my biggest annoyances too! Glad to hear it's fixed

I wouldn't install any additional software..... Just use Windows Mixed Reality..... later you can download and play with Open XR developer tools but I never really saw much benefit.

Yeah I would go the VR route instead, if immersion is what you're looking for

I have to say that I'm really enjoying the VR experience. No it's not perfect and there's plenty of room for improvement, but my lord some of the experiences I've had have been spectacular, and just not something that can be recreated even on my 43 inch 4k G-Sync monitor with track IR. I flew into KSFO the other day in the Working Title CJ4, at night. Weather was pretty good until just before landing, where there was a thick cloud cover coming into 28L... which is very realistic... I used to live in San Mateo just down the road. Just as I cut off autopilot the clouds were thick and the runway was flickering in and out of view so I had to use instruments until just before touchdown. With the VR it was totally out of this world. Super smooth and just so immersive you almost forget it's not real. I need to update my specs but I use an i7 9700k at 5ghz, RTX 3090, 64 GB RAM, Reverb G2

I actually LOVE bloom and leave it on always. Especially in VR, I find the effect very realistic... without it the sun is just a 2d circle, but with it on you can almost feel the blinding effect of the sun in certain conditions which is very realistic, like when you're driving west just before sunset you can barely see out your windshield, and I find the effect very well implemented, like I said, especially in VR.

Yes it's worth it. I waited until recently myself. It's pretty awesome. On my high end rig it runs extremely smoothly at ultra settings even in super dense areas like nyc. It's very stable, no ctds. And vr is also loads of fun. There have been several moments that I've literally screamed "wow this is awesome!"
