    a tip from me, disable crashes in the menu,
    this only turns off the dark screen with the message how you crashed.

    With disable crash you can still crash and you can see the result, e.g. if you roll over.

    The first time i hit a house I got quite scared how i whirled through the air and then hit the ground 😅

    I have some concern about this. Microsoft pulling out kills the simulator since it practically requires streaming. In the old days they could pull out and nothing changes other than no more updates. 

    You can use MSFS offline and without photogrammetry and the word still looks so great

    better then anything before. People allready started to buy airports, Landmarks ect. creating the world how they like.

    what do we want to have at the end of the day ?

    Nothing wrong to have good, simple fun, goofing around. Honestly, I look for more. Can we have both ? Maybe. We’ll see when real simcraft will be on the market.

    everyone would answer this question differently, i think we can have both sides,
    in contrast to my two friends i tend to your side, i prefer "as real as it gets",
    same with the flight hardware (gamepad just for drone cam and walking around).
    if you ask me what i want at the end of the day, for me it is VR 😁

    I get that people are antsy to see fixes and updates for the aircraft and whatnot, but... it's been 9 days, folks.  During a time when they are likely all working from home.

    Give them a chance to put out the major fires preventing people from even being able to install the sim they bought, and then we can move on to hopefully tweaking flight models, fixing weird behaviour, and so on.  This is the beginning of a long road.

    its beyound me some people need a life.

    I saw quite a few over there yesterday, a few from this very forum were taking a look as well. The only let down was the continuing lack of wind data in the area, although some might see that as a good thing when a hurricane is involved! 😁

    i took a close look at it yesterday evening, started from the coast with the TBM, after 45min i landed further north in heavy rain. Inside the hurricane I expected strong winds, but there was actually nothing, it was easy to fly.

    Or can someone really fly that easy in a Hurrican? 😉

    If you analyse the new flight_model.cfg you will see it’s a concatenation of the old aircraft.cfg and air table in a txt format. That is to say based on derivatives.
    I was surprised to see they changed the ground effect by plotting it vs mach which is quite weird... anyway The BIG new stuff Asobo introduced is the discretisation of aircraft surfaces according coarse geometry parameters as described in geometry section. From this geometry they deduce the basic surfaces (wing, tail, fuse...) that they cut in 1000 element surfaces on which they spread the forces computed from old air cfg system. Example : the lift computed from CL and it’s derivatives (CL vs mach, CL vs aoa) is spread on the computed coarse wing surface. The idea I think is to compute the moments of asymmetrical forces on the airplane. Could be interesting but in real life pressure and so forces are not not spread equally on all the surfaces. Take example if the lift. It spreads on the wing differently with AOA, drift angle, mach. The result of this spread evolution is the pitch moment described macroscopically by Cm coefficients. What is funny is despite Asobo computes forces application on 1000 surfaces to get these moments right, they kept Cm coefficients in the new cfg. The risk is the moments get overestimated by addition of Cm and force repartition.

    I would have loved to see implementation of multi wing, a more evolved drag model including effect of Reynolds, mach and aoa conjugated, effect of slats on CL vs aoa etc...

    now this is interesting ! Time to get my dusty physics book out of the cellar, best would be a bottle of red wine as well! ;*D

    So as I get to know the new sim better, I thought I'd save a couple of flights for later repeats.  But to my surprise, now the flights are aircraft specific.  I don't want to save similar flights that are aircraft specific.  Is there a way to save a flight that I can use with any aircraft ?

     

    i found a way, enable Dev mode, load your flight then you can load any aircraft manually (Dev menue above) when on ground, or even in the air.

    I do believe most do get it. Certainly everyone that tested the modern wave of VR understand it. Those that tried the older iterations maybe  more in doubt 🙂 

     

    I dont think so, i got my first VR headset in early 2013, the Oculus Dk1 😁

    i was instant a VR fan and i knew there is no way back, i would fly MSFS even with the Dk1 ! 😎 the resolution never bothered me, immersion was stronger.

    I remain unconvinced that Avsim, as a general rule, "gets" Vr. 🤔

    I'm going to be very excited about this, and intend to be quite active on the issue, but can't see it happening, here.

     

    I think it's nice here, avsim even gave us an own VR subfolder 😁

    Everyone who is interested in flying in VR is welcome here, everyone else should stay word not allowed away 😅
