Garmin G1000's locking up (MSFS 2020)
what your image is indicating appears to be exactly the same as I was clicking on in the video and all the data entry I was doing was by keyboard. I wouldn't know a custom Garmin if it kicked me in the butt. (I'm not very good at doing quotes, I hope I didn't mess this one up LOL)

Garmin G1000's locking up (MSFS 2020)
It is behaving exactly the same as the 510 Mustang in the video. I just specifically loaded it and it works exactly the same. I'm thinking that one of two things is true: either I'm the only guy that has had this happen or (much more likely) I'm the only guy that was not aware of it LOL!

Vaughan, thanks very much for your help with this. Sorry the audio, initially, is not very good but it describe the overall issue. again thanks very much. Tres EDIT - In the video, I mentioned being at departure end of runway 30; for what it may be worth I am actually at the approach end.

Garmin G1000's locking up (MSFS 2020)
Definitely at least one; the G36 Bonanza. The others being; the 510 Mustang and the Phenom 100 From Cockspur, and the Cessna 172 which I got From Flightsim.to. I have an aversion to airplanes with doors that do not open. I have always felt the most important one must do before flying an airplane is to get into it! Very interested in your bringing up the map, I don't believe I have ever used the arrival part and I am very ready to try it. What are you thinking I should hope to get out of this?

Garmin G1000's locking up (MSFS 2020)
Thanks, I had done a search of the forum for anything similar and there wasn't anything so I was already pretty well convinced that this is limited to me and my computer but thanks for checking it out for me. It just doesn't make sense that only Garmin, and only the G1000 for that matter, would be affected. I just can't think of any controls bindings; keyboard, mouse or joystick, where one could look for something like this.

Garmin G1000's locking up (MSFS 2020)
An interesting issue has popped up just in the last couple of days. All of my Garmin G 1000's have taken to freezing and locking the sim. It happens when one clicks the ENT button immediately after typing in a destination ICAO (I only fly direct). All of my airplanes equipped with the Garmin 1000 are having this exact same problem. No other airplanes are having any problem at all, including airplanes equipped other Garmin models; it is the G1000 only. This one has me completely stumped. Tres

TBM 930 Throttle system problem MSFS 2020
Well, i'm a little embarrassed that I even had to ask in that Last Post; it was pretty obvious all one needed to do was hold down the F2 key. So I did that and now she's behaving like a Princess. All I've done so far is taxi around but it just has a different feel. Once again thanks very much you guys for your help.

TBM 930 Throttle system problem MSFS 2020
Guys thank you very much for your responses. Randall I am focusing on the reverse axis issue. I had a look at the keyboard bindings and the mouse bindings Only to discover that there are no inputs called for; everything is blank. At first I thought that was fine but now I am really focusing on the aircraft's behavior and how it does this going into reverse thing. Can you give me any guidance as to what the correct keyboard bindings should be? I use classically the old FSX keyboard actions of; first hit flight idle, F1, and then holding down the F2 key. I'm not sure how to express that or whether I should use propeller or throttle management, or both. Those inputs must have been there, but right now there is nothing. I should point out I do a joystick as such; my right arm doesn't work properly and I can't lift it up to operate one so I use Vjoy and virtual controller in conjunction with the mouse. You may remember I was telling it “secondary click” to throttle over to the left side. It isn't elegant but typically it does work. Again, thanks very much for your responses fellas. Tres

Sim Update Confusion
Thanks fellas. It's just typical of the confusion that has been my experience of 2024 so far. It is very stable but the incredibly complicated key bindings world is just making my head hurt. It doesn't look any better than 2020 to me and I'm still groping for why anybody would. think it's better. I think part of the confusion I got into was over beta versions and I have never been concerned about that, it's enough of a headache as it is LOL! But I have it now and, PITA that it is I'm going to keep plugging away. but so far I'm having a lot more fun with 2020. And yes, I do have the up to date version; 1.6.34.0.

And here I spent nearly a half hour proofreading the body of the thing! Typical that I didn't even notice the title! Thanks for the Fix!

Sim Update Confusion
I am completely Baffled by SIM update in FS2024. in FS 2020, you would simply Receive “mandatory updates” and they would install right in. No problem. I have had now, FS2024 since last August and, frankly I have found it to be an annoying pain in the word not allowed every step of the way. The scuttlebutt seems to be that it really started to behave like a lady when SIM update 3 came out so recently I have decided that I should keep up with the Jones's and get it. Not so simple. I have done searches and inquiries and have been buried in reams and reams of “release notes” But is there such a thing as a link? Not that I've found. I believe that there are now 5 SIM updates out. I'm feeling a little simple minded right now as I've been doing this (simming that is) since FS4 but for the life of me, I can't figure out how to get them. I have done the Base Content download; I have well over 150 gigabytes on board I believe. I fly on FS2020 every day. I have what I consider a very nice establishment there several airplanes and I'm flying all over the world. I'm very happy with 2020 and I keep asking myself why on earth am I even messing with 2024?

Mouse as joystick failure may kill my MSFS 2024 career
I guess they don't go for videos here. I made a video showing what is going on in the settings controls areas of both 2024 and back in how it looks in 2020. I go to Settings controls and then hardware settings, it shows slanted line just like it does in 2020 and when I hit the X key, which I can do for either the X axis or the Y axis, It slides right along with the mouse. From there I went into the cockpit of the Cessna 172 and saw that the control yoke is moving but very jerkily. I remembered that I had been in settings controls for the mouse and went back there and deleted several inputs I had previously put in. When I went back into the airplane cockpit, the yoke was totally unmoving. so that's basically where I am. I have No doubt at this point that the program is recognizing Vijoy but I have some kind of setting slash bindings slash controls issue. I wish I could show you that video.

Mouse as joystick failure may kill my MSFS 2024 career
Moderators, I only noticed the post about the hardware section after I posted this. Thinking about it, I feel that it is a little broader than just a hardware topic but it's your forum and if you want to put it somewhere else, or just delete it, I understand. Tres So, a few days ago, I pulled the trigger as I had threatened to and acquired MSFS 2024. Now about a week later, after many hours of very frustrating effort trying to figure out how to get the mouse to work as a joystick, as I have done with MSFS 2020 very successfully, I am starting to fear that I may have to back out of the whole thing and get a refund, which I do not wish to do . The program recognizes the presence of my Vjoy Driver device, but nothing I have been able to think of will make it actually make the control yoke move. I have looked at several forum posts including in the MSFS 2024 forum and it's a little unclear frankly but some of the conversation is leading me to believe that perhaps MSFS 2024 just will not support the virtual essentials/vjoy setup which has worked very well for me in MSFS 2020. Now this is an obscure topic I know, And not likely to be very interesting to very many people; I would not recommend anyone to use their mouse as a joystick if you didn't have to. I DO have to because my right hand and arm do not work properly and I cannot operate a joystick. I can slide a mouse around on a table surface and I can fly in this way very well. So I guess the question is, and I doubt that anyone really knows, Is there any hope here? This has been a very frustrating and tiring experience but I hate like hell to just have to drop out of the 2024 world over a stupid thing like this Any thoughts at all most appreciated. Tres
