Well said that man, my sentiments exactly. Cheers Pete

Hi Flyer47. Thanks for the heads up, it did work pretty well with only a small < in FR - Wish I asked a few years ago - just proves the old saying -"you don't ask you don't get" Thanks again Cheers Pete

Like most here I have been looking forward to XP12 since the first announcement. I Love 11.5 and have returned to it after some bling time in MSFS. Coming back to XP11 the one thing that drives me nuts are the jaggy shadows esp in the cockpit and I'd hoped that XP12 would have left those behind but after watching the Citation X trailer above all sensational EXCEPT the jaggy shadows are still there at 1:07 😞 I will still buy it - but the absence of a fix means when I want to fly I will have to make a choice between MSFS with a sensational world and clouds but very ordinary flight dynamics or XP12 finally with great weather, water, realistic flight dynamics but the dreaded jaggies I have been trying to leave behind for years.

Hi -Know this is an old thread but after the same info myself now. I can connect to MSFS using simconect but cant seem to find the majic formula to connect to XPlane. Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Thanks for the heads up - Looking nice but I'll hang out for its grown up sibling a Radial Bu133 Jungmeister - beautiful looking pair of wings and still a great aero performer. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYD1NcSkFYM

What happened to the VH Porters ? Cheers Pete

Hi - the real world POH quotes the following Take-off - 65mph/56kts Vx Best Angle Climb - 72mph/63kts Vy Best Rate Climb - 75mph/66kts Approach - 85mph/74kts. I haven't checked these against the sim figures yet as I'm comparing the real world C of G against the Sim to get a setting which consistently gives better take-off manners - getting close now. The real world WACO has a very short arm of 4 inches which lies between the leading edge of the lower main-plane and the trailing edge of the upper wing, so its no wonder the sim is having problems dealing with it as its used to dealing with a monoplane with the CofG around 1/3mac and not forward of it Let me know how the figures stack up when you fly next Cheers Pete

Hi is there any other way of purchasing Carenado other than MSFSs broken Marketplace - I haven't been able to purchase anything in game (despite supports efforts till they gave up 3 months later) since buying the sim from day 1 till now ? Cheers

Hi Guys Thanks for the suggestions. Fielder I'm not on the steam version have the digital download version and don't have an issue with the marketplace being greyed out and previous to the last USA+ update could record an aircraft on my wish list which now also appears to have disappeared. republic3D - mate I tried logging in under my user account but as I had installed under administrator it wouldn't permit a shortcut to be created. When I went into my Microsoft store account which shows the program listing noticed it has a notation along side that it must be run as administrator. Win10 Pro is not my friend. I think I will end up having to re-install but will wait till the holiday season is over and I get full bandwidth back again. Once again thanks for your suggestions much appreciated - Happy flying - Cheers Pete

Thank you both - I hadn't tried it but unfortunately I normally logon as Admin to slow windows defender down and find that I installed MSFS as Admin and I'm not about to reinstall it again nor Win10 as they suggest just to get it working. I have had a pleasant 3 hours in X-Plane today flying VFR in the beautiful Thandra DHC-2 Beaver exploring ORBX Nth California but I really appreciate you taking the trouble to post your suggestions. I'm watching the mailbox for my Honeycomb Bravo Throttle which tracking tells me left Frankfurt de on the 22nd Dec so I will have a long awaited new toy to play with till someone gets back to me from support. Thank you both again - hope you have a Safe and Happy New Year. Cheers Pete

I enabled UAC - Reset my MS Account and changed payment methods - email matches - Region settings match - reinstalled xbox app - tried launching MSFS from the xbox account- changed permissions - downloaded many Gbs of non essential updates - held my tongue in various different positions and if I was a bit younger I might have tried a handstand. I did a flight in MSFS yesterday with the standard 172 from KSFA north up the coast early morning using Weather Preset Pro -Towering clouds and the sky and light was stunning I have to admit. I would kill for the weather and light from MSFS transferred into X-Plane and would die on the gallows a happy man. Cheers Pete

I envy you - I've been trying to buy it and/or the Ovation and keep getting the dreaded "purchase failed" error no matter what I do after following the Microsoft sequence short of re-installing Windows 10 which is on their list of options . Hope you all continue to enjoy the sim while its working - I'm taking my bat and ball and I'm off back to X-Plane till they sort out the issues - I'm getting too old for this sort of agro. Happy flying Stay safe and have a great New Year in Microsoft world. Cheers Pete

me too anyone have a solution please

Got my vote. Fabulous plane GTN just doesn't look right. Cheers

Didn't work for me. Ill just go back to X-Plane till this game gets sorted some more
