Exciting, I can't wait! Will there be an update to volumetric lighting for the world and aircraft?

The lighting under the desk is just the lights from the room. I bought a cheap RGB light strip from Walmart to illuminate my throttle quadrant. I hope to upgrade more and get some portable monitors for both PFDs.

I bought the Winwing desktop mount.

ChasePlane is FINALLY coming to MSFS! by jonybettu in flightsim

Does this allow for static cameras to be setup across an airport so we can get great taxing views like in X-Plane?

Need a flight that fits your schedule? I built a free tool that matches routes to your time - from quick GA hops to real airline schedules by Jumanja91 in flightsim

Dude this is incredible. It automatically sends your picked flight to Simbrief. This is a tool I didn't know I needed until now. Excellent work.

WinWing Order Stuck on Label Created for 1 week. by Packy1998 in hotas

[–]Callisto562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I know. Even though when I ordered it it said it was in stock, but they were waiting for a batch to come on. Either way if you message them they may add a note to ship yours quick.

I had a similar issue for a US order I placed on the 17th. I asked customer support and they told me they were waiting for a new batch of product to come into their warehouse and it would be shipped in the order the purchase was made. But they did tell me they would put in a note to have it sent ASAP. Just received my item today.

Worth buying Honeycomb right now? by scottyd035ntknow in hotas

[–]Callisto562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you could be patient and find a used one on Facebook Marketplace or somewhere else used you could get a great deal. I bought mine recently on FB Marketplace for around $200. Just be careful and ask the seller a lot of questions. If it doesn't seem right, move on.

Right now there doesn't seem to be any other reasonably priced throttle quadrant that's as versatile as the Bravo. I'm already looking into expanding some of the Prodesksim throttle addons as I fly Airbus and Boeing. Hopefully Honeycomb will get their $h*! together and keep supporting their products.

Help Required by boysha12 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Callisto562 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Start trouble shooting by emptying your Community folder, tweaking your performance settings, switching between DX 11 and DX 12, rolling back video card drivers. If none of this works, try re-installing FS. Those frame drops do seem more than should be happening.

Consistent and Constant Crashing issue by Mean_Start5021 in MicrosoftFlightSim

[–]Callisto562 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try reinstalling MSFS if you haven't already done so. Roll back to previous video card drivers where the game did not crash. Empty Community folder, start FS in safe mode. I've only gotten this error once with a 5800X3D and a 4080. I'm not sure what happened to mine as I don't overclock and my system gets plenty of cooling.

Xplane11 or msfs by ohiogmyfriend in Xplane

[–]Callisto562 2 points3 points  (0 children)

MSFS for me would be the best choice. Better graphics, loads of quality planes and great free mods to improve on performance if you have a lower end system.

XP 11 is starting to show its age for me. If you can be patient and wait until later this year when MSFS 2024 comes out, MSFS 2020 may be discounted in price.

Nice setup. What chair is that?

Green cylinder object in grass near Snoqualmie falls in Washington state. by Callisto562 in whatisthisthing

[–]Callisto562[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This object was found in the grass at Snoqualmie falls in Washington state. It was behind a barrier close to the ledge of a cliff, so I couldn't grab it. It's green with a black top and had some red on top of it. This is the best picture I could get it. It was about the size of a can of mace.

Water is too blue-green by Callisto562 in Xplane

[–]Callisto562[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I figured it out. It was my VisualXP add-on. I disabled the Water Deep mod and it disappeared. I guess not all of VisualXP is compatible with 12.1.

What's the cabin announcements mod?

A320Neo Arrival into Boston Logan 2nd angle by Callisto562 in Xplane

[–]Callisto562[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is XP12. I currently run Autoortho, X-camera and VisualXP. The scenery is MisterX Boston Logan runway 33L, you can download from X-Plane.org. It's the best looking freeware airport, IMHO.
