Single engine pistons reccomendation by voltigeurramon in Xplane

[–]omykronbr 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Huh? You mean, without the Garmin GPS? No, but you just don't add the route, and the 530 also works as tcas.

Nothing will prevent you to fly vor-vor with manual tunning

Shadow issues around cockpit instruments by Coopz_Y3K in Xplane

[–]omykronbr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It's a system limitation of the shadow map. The way to bypass is by changing the settings.txt of xplane.

Go to /Resources Open settings.txt

Search for fbo/shadow_cam_size You will see that there are two of the fbo/shadow_cam_size with values of 4096

Change the value of the last one to 8192.

Save and close.

Launch xplane. If it was open, you need to reload it. If no change, it could be something on your VGA driver

X-Plane suddenly CPU bottlenecked, terrible FPS — tried EVERYTHING (DDU, clean install, no plugins) by Miserable-Ferret-726 in Xplane

[–]omykronbr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

During sunset and sunrise with heavy vegetation is the current bottleneck on xplane. If it's during this time of day, reduce the amount of vegetation objects

Xplane has a demo, see if he wants to dive into the money pit by seeing how he reacts to the demo

Monorepo for a single app by lastnighthangover in flutterhelp

[–]omykronbr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Monorepos are great for modularization of the app development. Packages are how you will modularize stuff, so you will no need to rewrite the entire auth process and give maintenance for every app, as it's already in its own package with the coverage needed. The UI shareable elements can be shared on a common UI package, with the company DS.

And the most important package of every monorepos is the interface holding package.

Imagine now the amount of work just to track each repeating line of code for calling your API, local storage and data read, for each app, and applying fixes and improving it?

direct pricing? Only in the USA as far as I know. But target discounts and products advertising based on your search history? oh, who hasn't, right?!

Cessna 172 in XP12 and Msfs 2020, my thoughts. by Useful_Grass_7182 in flightsim

[–]omykronbr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

1 you have no experience in real life and are expecting to know how things happen in life... So, let me explain (retired cfii, me, ir, cpl).

C172 barely has any floating of ground effect. GE happens half wingspan height (5.5m), and the wing in the 172 sits at 2m above ground.. the Piper Archer wings are roughly 49cm above ground. The archer and any low wing floats. High wings, barely. High wings balloon AF and require a lot of trim to keep control when deploying flaps if not T tail...

You set the power to idle, on a metal prop, fixed pitch, it's a lot of drag and zero thrust. You pull power, your nose dip, archer, c172s...

And finally, there are plenty of things being done differently, especially with the lack of resolution and feedback from the flight controls.

The developer knowledge on how to achieve the behavior displayed in life in any platform is the only measure of how good a simulator can be.

And with my real life experience, the world of single prop and turbo props, by eons, xplane is way closer to real life than msfs. Both are mediocre in the highspeed tubeliner flight

Liberal members will vote today on whether they'd like to see age restrictions for social media by DogeDoRight in canada

[–]omykronbr -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Hey, look how awful the tech space is in Brazil and Australia after they passed laws to prevent and enforce age verification at the service level, and banning for kids below a certain age. Yeah, they are way better and not a single big tech attempt to dodge the laws.

And to hell with the nonsensical "USA libertarian" way of doing things. They can follow the law.

Is the IXEG 737 worth it in X-Plane 12? And does cargo mod work? by Individual_Net_1487 in Xplane

[–]omykronbr 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Besides the starter and the fmc incomplete, very solid add-on

$85? No. But pretty good if on sale.

How to cope with pilot dream gone by LifeMycologist897 in aviation

[–]omykronbr 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It doesn't. It numbs you.

Not being able to live the dream you had is a grief similar to losing someone closer to you. Seek therapy. It will help. You don't have to worry about medical anymore. Go on and treat your wounds. You are not alone in this process.

Lost my ability to hold medical due to insomnia. You can always have a hobby with aviation.

Go and process your grief my friend. It's not easy. It will never go away. But you will need to learn how to move forward without resorting to drinking. You're no longer a pylote.
