I looked up BKPR - it's a very small airport (mainly for GA) and doesn't have any heavy stands.. did you mean LKPR by any chance? will try without gsx and report back..

No it always goes to L2 even if it means the jetway breaks apart with a gaping hole.. Have tried many things to set it to L1 with no success.. Just curious how few may have done it.. Maybe an older version before SU4? Anyway I have resigned to this and have started enjoying the aircraft which is pretty darn good for a stock aircraft.. I have handpicked gates at major hubs where jetways don't break while connecting to L2.. That's my workaround for now.. Payware airports are better in this regard.. Stock KATL and KJFK, EDDM have jetways that break.. Patiently waiting for dual jetway support like SODE which will take care of all this..

can someone help me change the jetway connection from L2 back to L1.. I have tried everything humanly possible but unable to do it.. I know it is realistic to connect to L2 but msfs jetways are so broken most of them can't stretch that far and they break apart with a gaping hole.. Ideally we should have dual jetways for widebodies.. Until then I prefer L1 even if it's a 380.. I downloaded gsx profiles, played around with gsx aircraft profile, and all sorts of things.. I saw one of the A330driver videos where he had the jetway to L1.. Also saw some flightsim.to profile that had L1 active.. But that same profile didn't work on machine.. Perhaps outdated..

i have also disabled shader cache in nvidia app.. so i dont have to clear the cache anymore.. but still it doesnt work.. no shader files anymore.. for reference, i loaded up the ifly max and the internal lights work beautifully including the complex lighting themes in FAP.. fenix internal lights also work great.. only pmdg lights are broken and they have been for more than a year now..

I moved to latest nvidia driver which requires DX12.. now, the 777 internal lights do not illuminate cabin and cargo area.. its a show stopper for me as i fly exclusively night ops.. when i was in dx11, i used to clear shader cache as a workaround.. I have done nearly 10 flights in the 77F few months ago and the lights used to work really well as long as i cleared shader cache.. but this no longer works in dx12 or dx11 with their latest build from OC3. so i switched back to older driver 566.14 and moved to dx11.. but with latest 777 build, none of the internal lights work, except for the VC.. i have the cargo and the 300er.. same issue in both.. I have raised a ticket in pmdg oc3, but they haven't been able to find a fix so far.. also they are buried in firefighting 2024 bugs.. so wanted to get help from avsim veterans here.. has anybody else tested the 777 night lights with latest 777 build and dx11 or dx12 and have got the illumination to work?

the 777 cabin lighting is still broken in msfs2020, dx12.. clearing shaders cache wont fix the bug.. disappointing they still didnt fix this for many months.. have raised a ticket..

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..

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!

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..

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..

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..

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..
