I hope the option to disable camera transitions exists like it did in the p3d world.. When you have low fps the transitions are very choppy.. Will be nice to instantly switch views like we do in fixed cameras..

hey @guenseli, thanks for your excellent AAO profile.. I have made some additions to it - mainly added many ON/OFF options.. this is because I use honeycomb alpha and bravo, which have a lot of ON/OFF buttons and less of TOGGLE switches.. So now you can flip the landing light switch on/off and it will operate both the Left & Right switches together with a single flip.. just like you had done for the PMDG 737.. so all lights are on/off and can still be mapped as toggle for those who prefer that.. I have also mapped the autobrake to the rotary switch on the yoke.. I think the wider community will benefit from this based on comments i've seen on flightsim.to where people kept asking for ON/OFF options.. can i email you my script and template files, so that you can upload an update to your AAO profile on flightsim.to? I w'd prefer if you upload this instead of me uploading a new profile since you have a wider reach in the community..

FSElite's MSFS 2024: First Look
vin747 replied to Drumcode's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Just watched a stream from A330driver where he landed at an airport stored locally on his machine and still saw horrible blurries and heavy stutters.. So maybe there is something beyond streaming of assets that is the culprit here.. Very disturbing.. -
Hi @Watsi, I just tested again with the 380, cold and dark.. beacon light off, park brake ON.. but no visible chocks in external model.. i was able to see other visible services like cones, GPU, catering, luggage etc.. also, unlike the A320, there is no option in the flypad settings page (sim options page) for enabling wheel chocks and cones.. maybe this feature only exists for the 320 and not the 380? https://docs.flybywiresim.com/aircraft/a32nx/feature-guides/wheel-chocks-cones/#overview I'm on the 4K developer version.. maybe this works on the standard version? let me check..
-
Just downloaded the FBW 380.. looks great and VRAM just under 14GB @ KLAX with FSLTL.. this is with 4K version and cabin enabled... so I do have 10 GB headroom thanks to my RTX 3090.. In the services page - I didn't see any option for enabling wheel chocks.. anybody know how to enable wheel chocks or when this feature will be added? I'm unable to ask this in the discord due to phone number issues.. can only read fbw discord, but not ask questions.. sp pls help me out here at avsim.. 🙂 thanks!

Inibuilds.........Very Cool!
vin747 replied to jfv's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
I hope inibuilds holds off on the A350 release until asobo gets their act together.. Don't want a high quality addon marred by a lousy platform.. Inibuilds doesn't deserve this.. -
Inibuilds.........Very Cool!
vin747 replied to jfv's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
A330driver just reviewed the A400M and it was smashingly good.. But when he landed, runway textures were a blurry mess.. Awesome work by inibuilds spoiled by lousy cloud streaming strategy of Microsoft.. The only acceptable thing to stream is satellite imagery, PG, etc... Not airports and aircraft.. Those assets should be local.. -
MSFS2024 Day 3 and Load Times are super fast now.
vin747 replied to JonathanC's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
show me the load times with a stack full of addons and thousands of AIG flight plans and models.. show me the performance at JFK with 50+ FSLTL AI flying around.. not just FPS but also it should be stutter free if multi core is truly working as it should.. i already saw some severe stutters when A330driver was landing in his streams.. this was vanilla sim without any addons or AI.. and whenever he changed views and came back to flight deck, the FCU textures were still loading for 2 to 3 secs.. -
Back to MSFS 2020. I hate this stupid GUI
vin747 replied to David Roch's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
That being said, some things are different for real. For example: I couldn't find an option to get rid of the cinematics during the loading of the sim. I couldn't find an option to disable the music during the loading (music in the UI can be disabled exactly like MSFS2020, no problems) I couldn't find any options to get directly in the cockpit instead of the walkaround (yet) I think for your last point - Shift+C will get you into the cockpit I believe.. don't have the sim myself, but saw this in a youtube stream.. AirNoTT i think.. try it out.. -
MSFS2024 Performance - your thoughts?
vin747 replied to jcalor's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
I'm interested in seeing fps comparisons with 50+ AI from fsltl etc in a large airport.. Curious to see if AI is handled by other cores so that main core isn't hammered.. I don't think multi core is working as it should.. Still see stutters in YouTube streams esp after landing.. -
I was SO wrong to delete MSFS2020
vin747 replied to spilok's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Believe it or not, I waited ONE whole year before buying and installing MSFS 2020.. At that time, I was rocking XP11 with all addons fully mature and having a blast.. I continuously monitored the forums on MSFS 2020 feedback.. lot of complaints and issues etc.. - silly bugs like 'when you shut down engines, it immediately takes you to log screen' .. was too gamey for my taste.. it was only after SU5 when things started to settle down and MSFS grew from a game to a sim.. . that's when I plunged in and haven't looked back since then.. briefly toyed with XP12 but uninstalled that to make space for FS24.. perfectly happy with FS20 and can wait even another year before replacing it with FS24.. my take is this: If you are a GA flyer, then you can wait only a month or so before buying FS24.. if you're into tubeliners, then you better wait 6 months or more to take full advantage of the new sim and new sdk that fenix/pmdg will optimize their products for.. they have to essentially take advantage of multicore so that we get smooth fps at mega hubs.. -
Fenix A320 Sharklets released
vin747 replied to mobiel's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
Ya I have always thought the same.. It's such a subtle difference to flight dynamics that it may all just be in the noise... Maybe it's more perceptible on the fuel burn than flight model.. Going by that, they should just release the A319 sharklets too with just maybe fuel burn improvement accounted for.. But really happy with the sharklet update anyway.. Waited long time.. Best msfs addon got better.. -
new nav intergration into msfs
vin747 replied to pete_auau's topic in Microsoft Flight Simulator (2020/2024)
ya I use the sim menu only for gsx too and boy do I struggle with it.. the shortcut key for gsx rarely works properly.. so everytime have to deal with clunky menu on the top ribbon.. but I am excited and curious about msfs24 built-in planner by WT.. can it take navigraph head-on and maybe even remove the need to sub to navigraph every month? i really wish we had the option to stay on a fixed airac.. most of us are not real pilots and do not absolutely need the latest airac data every month.. only time its useful is when new runways are added or new airports etc.. -
I wish they had given us an AI traffic roadmap in msfs 2024.. This is a big area of concern.. The fshud does a good job of controlling and spacing the AI.. If you use the native AI traffic engine, it behaves very chaotic and has too many shenanigans..
-
The other AI issues you mentioned are more serious.. The fundamental AI engine in msfs is a huge downgrade from the near perfect AI we have had in past sims.. The flight model, their takeoff and landing physics etc.. Not good for AI plane spotters.. Also nav lights don't work at times during night flights.. At times they do.. Random issues like that..
