Yes I have, it's probably just the fact that my NY is a system killer. add ons for EWR, JFK, LGA and FRG. samscene NY, rkbridger for all the river crossings. GSX pro, BATC, with a PMDG 737 then throwing VR on top of that....... In other news I had a very pleasant flight from KPHX to KSAN in my 737 with full traffic in BATC and everything went just fine in VR.

I just got a quest 3 this week. I find that as long as I'm in a light setting such as a bush trip or some far flung low density scenery it works fine but when i try to run a complex airliner in a heavy place like NY even getting the VR to start up is a chore and once it's running its a laggy low frame mess even though the stereo image that's on my main monitor is smooth as silk. I'm guessing that in those scenarios the meta app is finding it hard to encode and send the feed to the headset even though the GPU is rendering the frames just fine. I'm wondering if something like virtual desktop can fix that but I don't have a Wi-Fi 6 router and am not really interested in buying one at this time. Other than that, can't beat it for immersion. Even having to lean in to read the displays isn't such a bad tradeoff for what you gain by being "in" the cockpit. Flying VFR takes on a whole new meaning. I'm in love! 5900X, 3080ti, 32GB Ram, 2TB M2 SSD for reference.

first time trying this. Seems like it has a hard time with long stutters. NYC is very heavy normally but I'm a glutton for punishment and have samscene rk bridger JFK EWR and LGA addons. So dipping below 20 and the occasional long stutter is a very real possibility. When that happens LSFG just hangs on the last image while MSFS recovers and keeps going. I need to unscale in order to keep flying. Happened on final under a mile out at EWR in the 777-300ER. talk about white knuckle!

Just completed my delivery flight KPAE - KEWR. Its a gem of a plane. handles beautifully and on the RNAVZ22L it was very easy to hold centerline and gentle in the flare under mild crosswind. I know very little about the systems in the 777 but the electronics aren't exactly alien if you're coming from the NG. Now comes the learning! Enjoy the new bird everyone and good night!

I am a dunce. Somewhere along the way I must have disabled frame generation. For the most part and in anyplace other than NYC i get my intended framerate. Flying in NY last night seemed a bit.... choppy so i checked and sure enough it was off, i just never noticed. All that to say that the 2D element ghosting is certainly still a thing for me.

It just stopped for me. no idea what i did. but i get smooth frames and no ghosting.

I happened to find myself with a Yoko, wasn't even in the market necessarily. I think its fantastic although mine has a few quibbles that need working on. First is that the red button on the left of the yoke isn't working, second is that it didn't come with the clamp to hold it down, if anyone has any leads on a yoko clamp or has one to sell i'm all ears. Third is that it seems the sensors may be noisy as my pmdg 737 yoke wont sit precisely still. hand flying has never felt better and overall I'm ecstatic that i have a yoke i'd never have sprung for in a million years. to celebrate i went out and got a honeycomb bravo and thrustmaster flight rudder pedals.

Thanks for this. I had to update mine after seeing a comment in another thread. I didn't think to start a new thread but this is likely very helpful for other users. Loving the A300 so far. Updates to LAX, DTW, EWR, JFK, and the P40 were nice bonuses! 🤣

I saw a video somewhere that showed msfs is targeting unattainable nit levels for the sun of like 10,000 nits. I have a 4k hdr setup but it's not certified to a nit level and i think it's closer to 300 pathetic nits. as a result HDR always seems off even though the dynamic range is better and color saturation is nicer. I compromised and used nvidia filters to get some of that pop back while leaving HDR off.

Surprised nobody has mentioned this already. Looks like AMD is going to have their answer for DLSS FG coming out soon and it's cross compatible with Nvidia RTX cards. https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2023/08/amds-fps-doubling-fsr-3-is-coming-soon-and-not-just-to-radeon-graphics-cards/ What are the odds that we will see support for this in MSFS? These days I'm running all ultra with mostly stable 30fps. If i could have similar stability at 60 I'd probably take it. Thoughts?

The difference between the Fenix and PMDG is interesting. I have been flying the 737 almost exclusively lately, though I do have the Fenix, and have gotten used to just undershooting the ILS. Yes i have the ILS tuned on both NAV radios and the course set. I also use the HGS frequently. It's not a big deal to adjust visually in decent weather but i was basically down to cat iiia conditions the other night with a 20 kn crosswind. Much harder to confidently fly below glideslope to hit the touchdown zone in those conditions. It seems like it's for sure an MSFS issue as pointed out by the always wonderful 737NGDriver. Till someone actually takes ownership and does something about it..... it'll just make flying a tad bit more interesting.

There was a creator of FS videos way back in the day by the name of Leonardo Andrade, he went by Navigator Productions. Among his many fine creations was a video titled Equinox featuring a, then current, 747-400 in Atlas Livery. Since Atlas just took delivery of the final 747 ever, I felt compelled to post this video and ask if anyone here remembers this creator or has a way to contact him. I've reached out to the email in the video but as this video is more than 16 years old I'm not entirely hopeful he is still using it. It would be amazing if this video could be recreated on msfs2020 in 4k as a tribute to the last ever 747.

I'm in the same boat with the inibuilds version. My sim runs flawless with the exception of Newark. Partially...... ok entirely my fault, i'll be flying in on the fenix or pmdg into NY at 4k with FSLTL running samscene NY, RKBridger bridges, JFK lighting enhancement, Feelthere LGA and still get upset at myself when the frames are only in the 20s 😂

This is most definitely the easiest. Using the checklists can also be your guide to learning the bird. Once you are comfortable with the checklists you can, perish the thought, chuck all the stuff that's "by the book" but not really needed to get ready for a flight in MSFS. Shhhh don't let the checklist police hear you but for sure learn the a310 its a rewarding and fun plane. Amazing it's just part of the sim, msfs has come a very long way indeed.

I was 2 months old. Would've been flying if i could 😂
